The viral post end wh Duff’s fal voice-over, remdg viewers, “When you say, ‘That’s so gay, ’ do you realize what you say?
Sce the noughti queens are at the foreont of everyone’s mds aga (Paris Hilton, Ldsay Lohan, Nile Richie etc), let me remd you of which gal is not only the least problematic, but has also been a drivg force the fight agast homophobia sce way back when: Hilary Duff. Back the noughti, when people thought was okay to say “that’s so gay” a negative way, Hilary Duff took a stand by takg part the Thk Before You Speak mpaign.
The mpaign was created by Arnold Worldwi and the Gay, Lbian and Straight Edutn Network (GLSEN) as an effort to te people on the fact that the term is offensive to LGBTQIA+ people. In the inic 2008 ad, Hilary Duff approach two women a clothg store after hearg one of them say that an outf is “so gay. The mpaign was released at a time where “that’s so gay” was beg tossed around equently and as someone who was stgglg wh their sexual inty at the time, I n tell you that hearg beg spouted by people (cludg iends) was credibly hurtful.
HILARY DUFF RECREAT HER 2008 ‘THAT’S SO GAY’ PSA
It ma my gay ltle heart sg when I saw that Hilary Duff was actively takg a stand and puttg her name and face to a e that aims to elimate the homophobic term. You’d thk at this pot people are ted enough to know that the term is not okay to be ed, but apparently not bee over the weekend, MAFS star Jsika Power uttered “so gay” an Instagram Story. Remember when Hilary Duff solved homophobia?
)Jsi Chasta as Tammy Faye Baker is gay Pri to Hilary Duff! It is the one month that I get to check out at Duane Rea and see a bona fi, real-life gay person on a magaze ver. Let never fet when Hilary Duff told ’s not ol to ll thgs “gay” as an 2008, the muny’s one te ally, Lizzie Maguire, filmed a PSA for the Gay, Lbian, and Straight Edutn Network’s (GLSEN) mpaign to eradite the phrase “that’s so gay” om sual nversatn.
One says the other’s top looks “so gay. To say somethg is gay when you mean ’s bad “is sultg, ” she schools them. Anyway, she quickly distegrated to a pile of huiated ash, and Hilary Duff feated homophobia then and thg is, I’m only wrg all this wh a ht of sarsm.
