Lupita Nyong'o Presents to Bridegroom at the  

Congratulations Linda and Shane on your GLAAD's Award. This was a film which was pre ordained...Destined to be made! Tom would be very proud now. Let us hope there will be perhaps another film; but this time one made in Hollywood! Maybe we could get some good up and coming actors to play their parts. That is one film i would love to see at my local cinema. Where do we send the donations to get this film made?

Shane spoke eloquently and touched my heart once again. I am so glaad Linda came forward and directed "Bridegroom". RIH Tom

Shane is honestly one of my greatest inspirations, love you Shane.

Shane speech should show people that love conjures all. Love is all we need to fight for what is right and just. Others will put us down but Shane says it we have to stand together and unit as one. Shane I am sure Tom is proud of you for all that you have accomplished. Please keep fighting for those that can't.

It is indeed an incredible story!

Shane i love you. This story is real and i wish you all the best wishes for the future. Tom will be so proud of you. RIP Tom

Well I'm not the only one crying! You go Shane!

Shane is an amazing person, having met him, his story has truly touched me. I am so glad his documentary has received a GLAAD award! Love you Shane! Stay strong!

A perfect GLAAD moment, Bridegroom winning this Award. Shane, once again speaking from his heart. Congratulations to Linda for her work, and for Shane and his commitment to all of what the film Bridegroom is, sharing his and Tom's life with the world.

Congratulations Shane..... Tom is always proud of you...

Shane, you absolutely break this mother's heart. My heart literally ACHED for you after watching Bridegroom. I am haunted by it. I still can't get over your loss of Tom. I have no words to describe that even happening. It's unreal. I don't know how you got through it other than to say you are one of the strongest people I've ever come across. Every time I think of it, which is often, I just shake my head and say, literally, with tears in my eyes, God love him, God love him, Lord, please love him, meaning both you and Tom. My heart goes out to you. Your GLAAD speech made me cry. I could tell you were nervous but also still heartbroken over Tom. I, too, had a lump in my throat. I just cannot make sense as to WHY this happened to you other than as a catapult to where you are today. I'm SO HAPPY for you that you now have Rayvon. I thank God for that. After watching Bridegroom for the first time about a month ago, I've been reading everything I can find online trying to catch up to where you are today. I'm so happy you're happy now :) As a mother to a gay son, I just feel such a connection to you. I know I don't know you and have never met you but I love you as one of my own. I wish only the most iridescent happiness for you for the rest of your life! Marianne

please dont settle for the absence of opposition as your final goal, you deserved to be celebrated not tolerated. GOLD!

Thank you to GLAAD, Shane Bitney, and everybody else that has been able to make this amazing documentary. I don't often cry but this documentary had me in tears almost the entire time.

Shane, you have touched my heart so deeply with your bravery & honesty. So proud of you & happy for Bridegroom's success. Don't ever let go of the dream of being worthy of love. Tap, tap, tap.

thanks Shane for all what you did.

Shane, I can not tell you how much you have inspired me to be who I was born to be. I continue to watch your videos for inspiration. THANK YOU from my heart........Love you.

Wow, Shane. Thank you. Your story has really inspired my life and helped heal past hurts/wounds/beliefs. This is so perfect that you've been given a GLAAD award. Anything to highlight this movement and change we need to see now is a blessing, so are you and this film.

So happy to see Linda and Shane receive the GLAAD Media Awards for outstanding documentary to Bridegroom. Your strength during all this Shane is to be commended and your work even now inspiring and I'm sure Tom feels the same.

Thanks for the inspiration you made me cry...

OMG great speech and WOW love to see my favorite star Jlo supporting Shane.. Love you

I love Shane, so so much. He has an unbelievably kind heart, he hasn't let anything harden it. His strength is inspiring and he is making the world a better place for all humans by telling his story. Tom must be so proud, I bet he's doing back flips and cheering Shane on louder than all the other angels. I imagine his smile to be similar to the brightness of the sun.

I love you Shane and Tom. I miss Tom and I miss the both of you. Thank you for telling your story. Love from Singapore.

Yeah!! Their love will live on forever

Well Deserved

It hurts that a family will schawn thier love one for being gay, and the at there death they want to claim them as family and cut their partner from the funeral. This case has happen too many time in the past, Remember to those who that path that one day they will have answer to that. When they stand before judgment law of time. LOVE just what it is Love.
