Millie Bobby Brown, Chris Evans And More Support Bullied Student Keaton Jones
Several celebrities recently united to show their support and send some encouragement to a bullied student named Keaton Jones.
On Friday, Keaton's mom, Kimberly Jones, shared a video confessing the bullying he endures at school. Kimberly was hurt by how Keaton's classmates treated him. They poured milk on him and made fun of his appearance. They even called him "ugly."
Kimberly added that she picked Keaton up from school after the latter was afraid to go to lunch. "My kids are by no stretch perfect, & at home, he's as all boy as they come, but by all accounts he's good at school. Talk to your kids," Kimberly said (via E! News). "We all know how it feels to want to belong, but only a select few know how it really feels not to belong anywhere."
A lot of celebrities took to social media to show their love, support and encouragement to Keaton, including "Pitch Perfect" star Hailee Stanlee, "Stranger Things" actress Millie Bobby Brown and "Avengers" stars Chris Evans and Mark Ruffalo.
"Hi Keaton, it's Hailee here. I just wanted to say, I think you are amazing," Steinfeld says in a clip posted on Twitter. "What makes you so special is that there is only one you and I would love for you Keaton Jones to be my date to the 'Pitch Perfect 3' premiere."
On the other hand, Evans and Ruffalo invited Keaton for the premiere of "Avengers: Infinity War." Both wanted to see him when their superhero flick hits the big screen. "You got a pal in the Hulk," Ruffalo wrote in one tweet. He also added that Keaton is one of the coolest kids he knows and that he can't wait to meet him. Meanwhile, Evans encouraged him to "stay strong" and promise that things will get better.
Brown, on the other hand, offered friendship to Keaton. "I think your sooo cool Keaton! I wanna be your friend," she wrote.
"Keaton baby, just know you're not alone," Demi Lovato wrote. "There are so many people who come out of bullying so much stronger and you will be one of them!! God bless you sweetheart."
