Every time we turn on the radio, there is a song on about being proud of who you are and not letting anyone change you. These self esteem boosting anthems are great especially for teens and kids dealing with self doubt and bullying. Your music, movie or t.v. Show makes them feel better about themselves until they attend your concert and you don't carry any concert merchandise in their sizes. If we are "Born This Way" Lady Gaga and "We R Who We R" Ke$ha, than 4xl sized person should be able to get a show at your concert. Many of your fans leave the merchandis tables disappointed and hurt that they can't purchase a shirt to show that they love you and themselves. Start a trend and carry merchandise for all shapes and sizes, not just the skinny fans! Visit https://www.facebook.com/DemandEqualityNow to support the on Facebook!

The stories coming to my inbox are heavy and they remind me why this fight is worth the exhaustion. I am still reaching out to promoters and labels even though the doors stay shut for now.

Seeing this momentum grow has been exhausting but deeply validating. It is clear that so many of you are tired of being left out of the conversation. I am holding onto that energy while we keep pushing forward.

ALL fans matter. Stop leaving people out just cause they are bigger.
