President Barack Obama is confirmed to be sending a special message to the LGBTQ community for the third annual Stonewall Day

Pride Live is rolling out its roster for the third annual Stonewall Day — streaming June 26 on Logo’s Facebook and YouTube pages — and it's turning out to be a star-packed program.

President Barack Obama is confirmed to be sending a special message to the LGBTQ community, and he'll be followed by guests and performers including Taylor Swift, Ellen DeGeneres, Cynthia Erivo, Kesha, Hayley Kiyoko, Demi Lovato, Katy Perry, Christian Siriano, Donatella Versace, Lilly Wachowski, Chelsea Clinton, Luke Evans, Valerie Jarrett, Justin Tranter, Pride Live board president Dr. Yvette C. Burton. Trans advocate and model Geena Rocero will host the event.

Presented by WarnerMedia, Nasdaq and Pride Media, the event will raise funds for LGBTQ+ organizations most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic including Trans LifeLife, Brave Space Alliance, TransLatin@Coalition and the Ally Coalition. Stonewall Day, launched byin 2018, is billed as a national day of awareness to commemorate the anniversary of the 1969 Stonewall Riots.

"COVID-19, and the recent events that have placed a national and global spotlight on the need for fair and equal treatment for all people, has impacted so many around the world and the LGBTQ+ community has not been immune. This has resulted in vital and life-saving LGBTQ+ organizations having to severely amend their budgets and programs. Our hopes are Stonewall Day can assist our beneficiaries in continuing their work and service to the community," said Burton.

Pride Media is the lead LGBTQ+ Media partner for Stonewall Day, and GLAAD returns for the second consecutive year leading all press and media outreach, while Nasdaq will host the live stream at its Times Square headquarters.

He has to come out because most if us know

What marching orders will be given this time?

Of course. Big Mike demanded that he speak.

BreakingNews. Last BarackObama message went to a wrong destination. Instead sending a special message to the LGBTQ, it went to DonaldTrump😎

THIS IS YOUR PROBLEM. You've always treated Pres Obama as a celebrity. by the way, where is his message to his home town of Chicago, who had 110 shootings this weekend, 14 deaths.? 1586 already shot this year. 280 killed. NOT ONE PEEP from your favorite celebrity.

He needs to calm down.

Queen Taylor 😍
