In the US, more and more celebrities are in quarantine at home, including actor Kevin Bacon (61, "Footloose"). He also wants to convince others of voluntary self-isolation. The Hollywood star started an Instagram call with the hashtag "#IStayHomeFor" (in German: "I stay at home for"). Kevin Bacon explains himself: "I will stay at home for Kyra Sedgwick." He has been married to the 54-year-old actress since 1988 and the couple have two children. Other citizens should follow his example, he linked six more people in his post.
Elton John promptly participates
Kevin Bacon explains in his Instagram post that it is "important" in the corona crisis to stay at home and keep your distance from others. The more would participate, the better. "In this way, we can prevent the spread of the #Corona virus and save lives," said the 61-year-old.
Bacon linked in the comment to his post about pop singer Elton John (72), who already complied with the request. On his Instagram account, Elton John lets his fans know that he will stay at home for husband David Furnish (57) and "our boys".
