Cyndi Lauper, Chelsea Handler, Jane
Lynch, Idina Menzel and Alan Cumming are among the celebrities who
have designed a t-shirt for the Give a Damn campaign.
Lauper's Give a Damn campaign raises
awareness and funds to fight homophobia.
Late night talk show host Handler
designed two t-shirts. One says, “LOVE, EQUALITY, AND PENETRATION
FOR ALL.”
The second t-shirt is a nod to her 2008
collection of humorous essays titled Are You There Vodka? It's
Me, Chelsea.”
On a black backdrop, the t-shirt reads:
“ARE YOU THERE, GAY RIGHTS? IT'S ME, CHELSEA.”
Cumming's t-shirt includes a doodle of
himself along with the caption, “You don't need to BE straight to
THINK straight.”
Lynch designed a t-shirt which includes
a stick figure drawing of a two-mom family under the caption, “WE
ARE FAMILY.”
“EQUALITY, TIME FOR IT TO BECOME A
REALITY,” states Lauper's t-shirt.
Menzel's t-shirt strikes out “gra”
from the word “gravity” to say “defy negati-vity,” a
reference to the Broadway production of Wicked. Menzel won a
Tony Award for originating the role of Elphaba in the production.
Each t-shirt costs $34.99 and can be
purchased at the non-profit's
website.
