Eva Longoria is showing a bolster of support for Gabrielle Union in light of her controversial departure from America’s Got Talent (AGT). The NBC network fired Union, which she called a “toxic workplace culture” before the return of season 15 on January 6.

The former Desperate Housewives star, took to Instagram on Monday to support her friend Gabrielle Union, about allegations of racism behind the scenes at AGT.

“What @gabunion experienced on set at @NBC’s #AmericasGotTalent is unacceptable,” she tweeted along with an article about Time’s Up’s response to Union’s termination. “It’s time for @NBCUniversal to commit to long term, concrete action to fix its toxic workplace culture and ensure safety and equity for all its workers.”

Longoria commended Union, 47, for “speaking up about the toxic culture” at NBC’s America’s Got Talent and shared a Time’s Up petition “calling for accountability and concrete action from @NBCUniversal leadership.”

Eva Longoria is not the only one. There are other celebrities in support of Union, such as Ellen Pompeo, Ariana Grande, Debra Messing, Lin-Manuel Miranda, and Patricia Arquette.
