I mean you could be ascending up a smoky staircase, you could be in the afterlife, moving on," he added.Alongside Springsteen, other celebrities also paid their tribute through social media.Singer-songwriter Mariah Carey took to Twitter to speak on the anniversary of the terror attacks."On this anniversary of 9/11, I find myself remembering the shock and anguish we all experienced with painfully deep sadness. Vivid images of the skyline I grew up loving so much, suddenly changed forever," Carey said.She later continued the post in a thread and added, "Still astonished by how many innocent people were lost in an instant, gone forever but never to be forgotten. Thinking of all the families still mourning their loved ones 20 years after that devastating and tragic moment in our history. #NeverForget."Actor Reese Witherspoon also posted on Twitter and wrote, "My prayers go out to all the families that lost their loved ones on this day 20 years ago. We will #neverforget. Forever in our hearts."Grammy winner Jennifer Hudson tweeted, "It's been 20 years and we will never forget. Join me in praying for the loved ones of all those we lost. #NeverForget."Actor Octavia Spencer shared an image on Instagram, along with penning her memory of the day."20 years ago I was excited because I was guest-starring on the sitcom Titus. I was up early running lines when my youngest sister called and said, "turn on your tv, we are under attack." I put on the Today show just as the first plane hit the tower. I called all of my LA friends and we watched in horror. I will never forget and mourn the loss of so many lives. Where were you that morning," she wrote in the caption.Several other celebrities including Patti Smith, Viola Davis, Phil Rosenthal and more, marked the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
