Nicki Minaj is the latest celebrity to speak out on this week’s string ( reportedly seven cases) of gay teens committing suicide after being bullied about their sexuality. Ciara, Ellen DeGeneres and many more celebrities have used their platforms to encourage young gay Americans to see that their situation will get better. Nicki had these encouraging words to share about the situation:

“I could never imagine what they’re going through, but I know suicide is never the answer, and I know things always get better… I’m supporting you guys, I love you very very much, and for the people who don’t love you…they need help.”
