Jessie And The Toy Boys Release 'Runaway" Video In Support Of Gay Marriage!

When it comes to the fight for marriage equality in the United States there's no doubt there has been a strong surge of support from Hollywood to end the ban on gay marriage.

Jessie Malakouti of Jessie and The Toy Boys is the latest in a long line of celebrities to openly show her support of gay marriage with a stunning new video for her song "Runaway." 

With it's release, Jessie explained her position and meaning of the video to Artistdirect.com

"I was overjoyed to learn that Proposition 8 was recently over turned in my home state of California. It's a step in the right direction, however for a country that teaches it's children to place their right hand over their hearts and pledge 'Liberty and justice for all' we still have a long way to go towards actually making that a reality. When I wrote 'Runaway' with DJ Skeet Skeet, we wrote it from the perspective of our 13 year old selves, who felt pressure from our parents and society to be something that we were not. The song is ultimately about breaking free and following your heart. I wanted to make a music video that told a similar story in relation to gay marriage. I was honored to have the beautiful and brave Mollie Thomas star in my video, and I hope that together we are able to bring about more awareness to an issue that is near and dear to both of our hearts and spread a message of equality. Happy Valentine's Day, everyone deserves love.
