Later, Jared Leto had a message for Paris as he presented the honor for Best Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture.

“To our brothers and sisters in France: Our thoughts, our prayers, our hearts are with you tonight,” Leto said. “Je Suis Charlie.” (I am Charlie.)

On the red carpet, stars including Helen Mirren, George Clooney and his wife, Amal, wore “Je Suis Charlie” pins in solidarity for those who were killed in attacks in Paris.

Clooney, accepting the Cecil B. DeMille Award, praised supporters of free speech.

“Today was an extraordinary day. There were millions of people who marched. Not just in Paris, but all over the world,” Clooney said. “They didn’t march in protest. They marched in support of the idea that we will not walk in fear. So, Je Suis Charlie.”

On Jan. 7, terrorists killed 12 people at the offices of the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo. Another five people were killed in separate attacks, including four hostages shot dead at a Jewish deli in Paris.
