Natalie Bassingthwaighte has dedicated her new single, Love Like This, to ACON’s Wear It With Pride campaign, with all of her profits from the single going to the ongoing support of the gay, lesbian, bi and transgender community.

You can watch the video here:

The Wear It With Pride campaign launches on February 2, and commemorates the Federal Government’s amendment of 85 pieces of legislation last year, which discriminated against same-sex couples. The new education campaign aims to increase awareness and understanding of these reforms within the community and covers a variety of themes including employee entitlements, privacy rights, tax, superannuation, child support and insurance. Many simply updated the definition of ‘defacto partner’, ‘parent’ and ‘child’ meaning that numerous benefits and privileges that heterosexual couples have had available to them without question are now afforded to same sex couples and their children.

The video for Love Like This features members from the GLBT community, as well as other personalities, including Kylie Gillies (The Morning Show), Richard Reid (Today Show), drag performer Courtney Act, Dr Kerryn Phelps (former Head of the AMA) and Adam Sutton (Heath Ledger’s inspiration for Brokeback Mountain ).

“I would so love everybody to get behind this campaign and the message of this song as it would illustrate to the world how the whole country endorses and celebrates the LGBT community and these reforms,” says Natalie. “I support equal rights for all Australians and I hope that is what Love Like This and our video will say.”
