Lana Parrilla at the 2012 HRC Cleveland Gala 

Lana is amazing! Her words made me cry...

Everyone’s got a gay cousin. If you don’t have a gay cousin, there’s a chance you might BE the gay cousin. I'm the gay cousin. :D

Lana is my favorite actress to have ever lived, she has a great personality and you can see in her eyes that she has been through a lot! I am 100% with her all the time,she is an AMAZING woman and not scared to voice her opinions, this is why I love her to bits and would love to meet her some day! Unfortunately, I live in the UK, so it is highly unlikely that it will ever happen, but that is my dream!! I love you Lana! ♥

I hope she will be invited back to speak on this again. She is so wonderful and passionate, a true idol to us all.

This woman is a hero. Not only is she beautiful but she's intelligent and has an amazing heart

She's so nice and kind. Love her!

I could listen to her talk all day.

Lana Parrilla is such a phenomenal human being, and she flat kicks ass.

She is an amazing actress! And beautiful. I love her!

That brought tears to my eyes.

There are so many reasons why I love Lana! This is definitely one of them

1:04 her face! Oh! She is SO DAMN CUTE!

The end of the video is so cute :))) "I'm seating at Table 42" :))

Thank you Lana. So, so much

Wow, just when I thought I couldn't fall any deeper into this girl crush... She is so right: children are so susceptable to negative messages from family, friends, religion and school, it's a shame parents would deny their child happiness simply because of their sexual orientation. Thanks to Lana and other high profile celebrities supporting equal rights all of us get a shot at our happily ever after. :D
