Chely Wright to Make First LGBT Event Appearance at GLSEN's Respect Awards
Chely Wright, who recently became the first country music star to come out of the closet, and who appeared on Oprah on May 19th, will attend the GLSEN Respect Awards in New York. The event, which raises funds to help make schools safer for all students, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity or expression, will be Wright's first LGBT night out.

Wright, who recently became the first country music star to come out, also listed GLSEN, the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network, in the liner notes of her new CD, “Lifted off the Ground.”
“I am thrilled to support such a wonderful organization,” Wright said. “I was immediately drawn to GLSEN because I want to do all that I can to help young people grow up free from fear and free to be themselves. GLSEN’s work to ensure that lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender students are valued and respected in schools is a crucial part of building a better future.”
GLSEN will honor Cyndi Lauper, Pfizer, American Express, David Dechman and Michel Mercure, and Student Advocate of the Year Danielle Smith at its seventh annual Respect Awards – New York at Gotham Hall.
Wright will be one of several celebrities in attendance.
“We are honored that Chely Wright is such a big supporter of GLSEN and our work,” GLSEN Executive Director Eliza Byard said. “She is an extremely talented artist and an equally amazing person. Her decision to share her story will inspire countless young people to believe in themselves and hopefully make it easier for those who follow after her.”
Nearly 9 out of 10 LGBT youth experience harassment in school each year, according to GLSEN’s 2007 National School Climate Survey. In addition, 60% of LGBT youth feel unsafe in school because of their sexual orientation and nearly 1 in 3 miss school each month because of feeling unsafe.
