For those who aren't Azealia Banks, Kid Rock or Scott Baio (or Morrissey, who just hates everyone), the news came as a pretty hard-hitting blow, and many musicians, actors and celebrities have taken to social media to share their reactions. Find out what Thom Yorke, Chance the Rapper, Lady Gaga and more are saying in the wake of Trump's victory down below.
As for our American friends like Lena Dunham and Bryan Cranston, who pledged to move to Canada if the election turned out in favour of Trump, they'll have to wait for the Immigration Canada site to recover. Apparently so many people had the same idea that the official government-affiliated website crashed.

For me, this election was about the marginalized "the other". I feel so bad that this country has let them down. So bad.
