Celebrities Including Chris Evans, Demi Lovato, Katy Perry All Come Together To Support Bullied Boy From Tennessee

 Celebrities all over have come together to support the young Tennessee boy named Keaton Jones who is the victim of bullies in his school.

The Knoxville native, out of frustration and emotional stress asked his mother, Kimberly Jones, to record a video of him, sharing his terrible experiences in his school, and why all his friends are mean to him.

In the clip, he's seen in tears confessing that everyone calls him ugly, make fun of his nose and some have even poured milk on him. He also tells his mother,

'Just out of curiosity, why do they bully? What's the point of it? Why do you find joy in taking innocent people and finding a way to be mean to them. It's not okay.'

His mother then asked him what he went through that day and he replied,

"They make fun of my nose. They call me ugly. They say I have no friends. Poured milk on me and put ham down my clothes. Threw bread at me. I don't like that they do it to me and I for sure don't like that they do it to other people because it's not okay.

People that are different, don't need to be criticized about it. It's not their fault. If you are made fun of just don't let it bother you. Stay strong I guess. It's hard."

This tragic and heart-rending video went viral and people along with Hollywood stars all over came up offering messages of encouragement and moral support.

Chris Evans, the famous Captain America actor, took Twitter to speak up for Keaton's situation, telling him to Stay Strong and asking him to come to the Avengers: Infinity War premiere in Los Angeles.

Stay strong, Keaton. Don’t let them make you turn cold. I promise it gets better. While those punks at your school are deciding what kind of people they want to be in this world, how would you and your mom like to come to the Avengers premiere in LA next year? https://t.co/s1QwCQ3toi
