Lance Bass Demands ‘Respect’ For GLSEN

Teams up with GLSEN to kick off the Respect Awards
Sunday, July 20th, 2008

Lance Bass hosted a kickoff event for the 4th Annual GLSEN Respect Awards which was held at Blu in Beverly Hills, CA this past Friday and he called on a bunch of his friends, including new boyfriend Sebastian Leal, to come out in support. Here are a few pics from the event:


First off, much props and love goes out to Lance for his continued involvement with the Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network. They provide such an important service for schools across the country. I worked with them extensively when I was a teacher back in Michigan and they were integral in helping us get our Gay, Straight Alliance club off the ground in a very conservative community. Props also go out to Lance’s friends for coming out in support of this event. I love that Lance brought along Sebastian to attend the soiree as well … things must be pretty serious if he’s bringing the guy along as his date to public events (tho, I could do without the macho posturing in the first pic of the LaBastian). I absolutely and fully support Lance in all of his GLSEN endeavors and it is my pleasure to help spread the word.
