July is Pride Month across the U.S., and these celebrities are showing their love and support of equality.
America Ferrera
America Ferrera made a noteworthy appearance at the LA Pride Resist March in West Hollywood. She explained, “Your liberation is bound up in my liberation… We refuse to be divided by the things that separate us.”
Busy Philipps
Busy Philipps has long been the subject of LGBTQ rumors due to her close friendship with Michelle Williams. In reality, she’s happily married to Marc Silverstein, but she’s not one to shy away from her role as an ally. She told her LGBTQ friends and family members, “We love you and support you now and always!”
Demi Lovato
In 2014, Demi Lovato made headlines as the Grand Marshal for the LA Gay Pride Parade. Her efforts this year were a bit more low-key, but she made her mark nonetheless.
Iggy Azalea
Iggy Azalea has suffered accusations of homophobia in the past, but she’s not about to let such critiques stop her from sharing her message of love and acceptance.
Halle Berry
Wonder WomanGal Gadot would love to have Halle Berry as an on-screen girlfriend. For now, however, Berry is happy to simply demonstrate her support for the LGBTQ community with body paint and the Instagram caption, “We stand with you.”
Jaime King
Jaime King feels that this year, pride is all about resistance. Her compelling Instagram post in honor of pride sparked discussion among her followers.
Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga strongly supports the LGBTQ community, so it’s only natural that she’s making her presence known during Pride Month. In an episode of web series Untucked, she admitted, “It’s the gay men in my life that helped me to become a woman.”
Lisa Vanderpump
The Real Housewives are far more open-minded and supportive of diverse communities than their detractors suspect. Case in point: Lisa Vanderpump’s ardent support for all things LGBTQ, as evidenced on her Instagram page. In May, she was the proud Grand Marshal for the Long Beach Pride parade.
Adam Lambert
Adam Lambert’s activism has been on display throughout the entire month of June. He appeared at the Resist March in Los Angeles and penned a love letter to the LGBTQ community for Billboard.
