Josh Hutcherson is making waves over the film industry with his most recent portrayal of "The Boy with the Bread" in Suzanne Collins best-selling post apocalyptic novel, "The Hunger Games". While Josh is known for his other films, the 19-year old is best popular for his outspoken support for gay and lesbian rights.
At the 23rd Annual Media Awards for the Gay and Lesbian Alliance against Defamation in Los Angeles, Josh received the most iconic award ever.
Hutcherson may have played the role of a son to two lesbian mothers in the film, "The Kids are All Right," but it didn't take much of convincing for Josh to play the part genuinely. In real life, Josh was raised by a mother who had long been a supporter of gay and lesbian rights.
"My mom has always been a big advocate, especially in the gay, lesbian, transsexual and bisexual community so for me it's always been a part of my soul," shared Hutcherson in a recent interview with E! Online.
In the 23rd Annual Media Awards for GLAAD, Josh Hutcherson had taken home the Vanguard Award. At 19-years old, Josh is the youngest advocate to have won the said award. The prestigious award salutes accurate, inclusive and fair representation of gay, lesbian, transgender and bisexual community and issues that affect their lives in the media.
Another honoree who took home an award Saturday night was Chaz Bono. The 43-year old transgender activist took home the Stephen F. Kolzak Award and the outstanding documentary prize.
Special guests who made it to the esteemed event include Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Ellen DeGeneres, Kat Graham,
This book is an emotional roller coaster ride with three different stories more or less meshed into one. Emotionally this book delves into graphic detail of the truly disgusting atrocities committed over and over again by many Japanese soldiers and Japanese police against both prisoners of war and civilians of all nationalities and races that came under their control. The book also discusses the fundamental differences in culture and errors in judgment (not the least of which was the assumption that…
Zach Sturm Period 6 CP Economics 11/26/13 A Contrast of Universal Healthcare and Privatized Healthcare Healthcare is a huge controversy and yet one of the most important aspects of being healthy. Shouldn’t such a necessary part of life be more efficient in providing healthcare? A lot would argue that the U.S does in fact have one of the worst healthcare systems ever. Most citizens would agree that it’s most definitely one thing: expensive. How about the other countries? To most Americans…
Human Health Throughout History Alysha LeBrun For many reasons in which I will explain later on, I believe that the Palaeolithic hunter-gatherer period was the safest and healthiest for human life. Although it is known that archaeologist have suggested that the average lifespan of a Neolithic hunter-gatherer is 25 years, this does not necessarily mean that all died at a young age. Using a small group of people, we are able to find and average by dividing the sum of their ages by the number…
2013 Real Love I love you. Those three little words mean so many different things to different people. But what is real love? Can anyone really define it? The definition of love is a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person. That definition does not go in depth enough for the effects of love, for how love makes you feel or how it makes a person act. Real love is selfless, everlasting and blind. Real love does not gloat, it’s never proud and it will never end. Real love is blinding…
The Real America To me the real America can be found in the small towns and rural areas from coast to coast. Real America has nothing to do with wealth, success, or keeping up with those around you. It means that you have the ability to maximize your potential. I do not believe that real America has anything to do with mortgages, car payments, and 401 k’s, but more to do with how we treat each other. Real America means working together, building communities that take care of all the members…

Are Bullies the Real Problem? School’s claims they don’t tolerate bullying, yet do nothing when a situation arises. Bullying, it’s always been a big problem in schools and on social media around the world. But are schools really doing all they can to prevent this victimization and help when there is a situation? Many people have complained about ruthless teasing in schools across the southern suburbs of Perth, but only two mothers we know of have taken the issue into their own hands. “It’s just…
Who Is The Real Monster In Frankenstein? The creature is always thought of as the real monster, because of the way looks, which causes him to be rejected and scare the people he comes in contact with, but I think that Victor is the real monster in Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein. Victor creates his creature out of different body parts that he has collected from a grave yard and then brings to life with electricity. When the creature is brought to life for the first time Victor is terrified by the look…
Real Nutrition for Calories Natosha Rick Mat126:Survey of Mathematical Methods Prof: Carolyn Gorczynski 02/16/2013 Real Nutrition for Calories When you are looking at the nutrition facts most people just trust what they see. There are so many things that are not what they seem, like sugar has more than just the name sugar on the ingredients list and then there is wondering how they calculate the facts for fat, calories, carbohydrates, and even sugar. With this thinking let’s take a look…
Destiny Bell Professor Hargrove English 101 2/9/14 Real Beauty Helen Keller once said, "Beauty is not always seen but is felt in the heart." Beauty is a trait that can be found in anyone or anything. It can be defined in many different ways. The definition of beauty differs with each individual's way of thinking. What may be beautiful to one person may not be beautiful to the next person. Most people take the definition of beauty to describe a person’s physical appearance, which is considered outward…
