Your support powers GLAAD to inspire the biggest names in entertainment to speak up for LGBTQ people

At the 67th GRAMMY Awards, GLAAD gave music’s biggest names an opportunity to speak out on LGBTQ issues, standing strong for our community—especially transgender people—in the face of ongoing political attacks. In exclusive interviews with GLAAD on the red carpet with co-host and reality show icon, Chrishell Stause, Chappell Roan demanded of us all to protect trans joy and gave all the credit for her success to trans women. Doechii called for more gay artists in the industry, while The Harlem Gospel Travelers reflected on Black queer representation and being people of faith. Troye Sivan, Pentatonix’s Scott Hoying and Wayne Brady gave powerful messages of hope to LGBTQ youth and LGBTQ allies, Paris Hilton, Benson Boone, J. Balvin, Sheryl Crow, and Luis Fonsi shared their love and support for the LGBTQ community, with Kehlani proudly claimed, “I’m always for the gays.” GLAADs messages amassed tens of millions of views on social media, and were later shared by outlets like Billboard, Vogue, Cosmopolitan, INTO, HuffPost and more, sending a global message of support to queer people again and again.

A word from GLAAD

Make no mistake: the election of an anti-equality president is a crisis, but it is also a catalyst for change. LGBTQ leaders and our allies across movements are working closer together than ever before. We understand where this administration aims to attempt to dismantle our rights, erase us from public life, pit us against each other and send us into chaos with confusion and degrading legislation and language. We are prepared, and we will come out of this administration stronger than ever.

We are not afraid. We are organized, passionate and strong. We continue to be joyful and thrive. And we are ready to defend ourselves, our families and our neighbors against baseless attacks, hateful rhetoric and whatever is to come. We are more resolute in our mission for equality than we ever have been. And we are certain that even more Americans will see the light and join us in the coming weeks and months.

Now more than ever, we all must realize our power—as individuals and as a united community for progress.
