Watch: Taylor Swift Gives Heartfelt Pride Speech at Chicago Concert
Pop superstar Taylor Swift helped usher in Pride Month by delivering an inspiring speech at her sold-out concert in Chicago on Saturday (June 2).
Before performing her new single "Delicate," Swift took time to share a message dedicated to her LGBTQ fans.
"It's very brave to be vulnerable about your feelings in any situation, but it’s even more brave to be honest about your feelings and who you love when you know that it might be met with adversity from society," the 28-year-old singer told her fans at the sold-out show.
“This is a month where I think we need to celebrate how far we’ve come, but I think we also need to acknowledge how far we have left to go," she continued.
The Grammy-winning singer also sent beautiful words of encouragement to anyone who may be struggling with accepting their sexual orientation.
"I want to send my love and respect to everybody who hasn't felt comfortable enough to come out yet...and may you do that on your own time and may we end up in a world where everyone can live and love equally...” Swift added.
Swift is currently on tour in support of her album, Reputation.
