Fox Bronte tribute to Jamey Rodemeyer who committed suicide. Using Lady Gaga song lyrics "born this way."



One of my Twitter followers created this clever piece of art as a tribute to Jamey Rodemeyer who committed suicide. Using Lady Gaga song lyrics "born this way."

Jamey Rodemeyer (March 21, 1997 – September 18, 2011) was an openly bisexual teenager (although he referred to himself as gay on Tumblr and some YouTube videos), known for his activism against homophobia and his videos on YouTube to help victims of homophobic bullying. He committed suicide as a result of constant bullying and being called gay.
