Canadian actress and entrepreneur Jasmine Mooney is speaking out after being detained by ICE. Jasmine, 35, had a role in 2009′s American Pie: The Book of Love. She is also the co-founder of the beverage brand Holy! Water, and moved from Vancouver to Los Angeles several months ago. However, she learned that her business TN visa was revoked in November 2024 when she was visiting Vancouver, possibly because Holy! Water is a product containing Hemp. Jasmine then got another job offer in Los Angeles, and went to the San Ysidro border with new visa paperwork on March 3. There, a border official ordered her to be detained. She was then transferred to multiple facilities across California and Arizona.

I wouldn’t wish that experience on anyone,” she wrote. “While I was in prison, I began writing an essay about my experience, which I will be sharing soon. I refuse to let what happened break me; instead, I’m choosing to use my voice in the hope that it can help others,” she added. In 2023, Seann William Scott revealed how much he was paid for the first American Pie movie.
