Celebrities React To New Harriet Tubman $20 Bill

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Wednesday's news that abolitionist and women's rights activist Harriet Tubman would be replacing Andrew Jackson on the front of the $20 bill created varying reactions from Americans across the country.

Among the opinionated, were the celebrities, who took to Twitter to either express their joy or in some cases their dismay. From alleged whistle blower Edward Snowden to presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders, almost everyone had something to say.

Even a few presidential hopefuls had something to say.

According to CBS News, Harriet Tubman is not replacing Andrew Jackson entirely. The Treasury Department plans to move Jackson to the back of the bill along with an image of the White House, and this news is not sitting well with some.

But for those who love a good laugh, Chrissy Teigen's reaction is worth a chuckle.
