Who knew
she'd campaign for gay rights

02 Oct 2006- Pink has become the face
of a campaign encouraging gay people to come out. The Who Knew singer helped
Human Rights Campaign's Project Snapshot to launch National Coming Out Day this
week.
Pink, 27, who is heterosexual and married, has lent her face to the picture
campaign, holding a sign which says "Talk about it".
Human Rights Campaign President Joe Solmonese said: "Pink is one of millions of
straight Americans who supports fairness and honesty for everyone - GLBT or
straight.
"This project will show the faces of
countless Americans who support openness over painful silence and isolation.
Young people who are afraid to come out will see these pictures and faces and
know that they are not alone."
Pink will be featured in the Human Rights Campaign's Snapshot Photo Project an
online public art project designed to encourage conversation about GLBT people's
lives, and supports equality and fairness.
The public can participate by downloading a Talk About It sign, and taking a
digital picture of themselves with their sign along with friends, family, or
co-workers.
