"Euphoria" actress Hunter Schafer was one of 33 individuals arrested at a pro-Palestine protest in New York on Monday while Joe Biden made a surprise appearance on Seth Meyers' late-night show, according to reports. The protestors, including Schafer, were demonstrating for Palestinian rights alongside the Jewish Voice for Peace group. The incident disrupted Biden's appearance on the show, where the President discussed various topics, ranging from age and Taylor Swift conspiracy theories to the Israel-Hamas conflict.

This news follows the Michigan Democratic Primary, where thousands of people advocated for an "uncommitted vote" as a message to President Biden regarding the situation in Gaza. As of the latest update, the uncommitted share of the vote stands at 14.2% with 28% of votes counted.

Hunter Schafer rose to fame for her role as transgender teen Jules Vaughn in "Euphoria," receiving numerous accolades for her performance. Apart from the popular series, Schafer has also appeared in projects like "The Hunger Games" prequel and the horror film "Cuckoo" with Dan Stevens and Jessica Henwick.
