Look who's wearing purple for Spirit Day

E! Network, Alyssa Milano, Ryan Seacrest, Giuliana Rancic, MSNBC's Thomas Roberts, star of Bravo's Real Housewives of NYC Jill Zarin, Khloe Kardashian, Cyndi Lauper, Marc Malkin and Joel Burns are among those who today joined the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) in pledging to wear purple on Wednesday, October 20, 2010, to show support for the victims of anti-LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) bullying.

Spirit Day now counts millions of Americans committed on Facebook to wearing the color purple on October 20 to remember youth lost to anti-LGBT bullying.

E! Online, Kardashian, Milano, Seacrest, Zarin, singer Darren Hayes, actor Wilson Cruz, singer Chely Wright, Ilene Chaiken and others also supported GLAAD's call for Americans to turn their Facebook and Twitter photos purple until Wednesday and to share messages of support for LGBT youth.
