Eclipse 5642 medium 560x560 Christian Serratos In NOH8 Campaign christian serratos

Christian Serratos (aka Angela Weber) posed for Adam Bouska in the new NOH8 Campaign. 

The NOH8 Campaign is a photographic silent protest created by celebrity photographer Adam Bouska and partner Jeff Parshley in direct response to the passage of Proposition 8. Photos feature subjects with duct tape over their mouths, symbolizing their voices being silenced by Prop 8 and similar legislation around the world, with “NOH8″ painted on one cheek in protest.

Great job Christian!  Plus you look gorgeous!

  • leahreallyitis

    right on! Christian! she is so amazing!

  • Evie

    Prop 8 was a proposition the people of California voted on to keep marriage to continue to be between a man and a woman. I don't like when celebrities try to go against the will of the people. The people of California have voted this way time & time again. I think this is intimidating for celbrities to push their agenda. If they want gay marriage….why not look into civil unions with all the benefits of marriage, but not change the definition of marriage of being 1 man and 1 woman.

  • my alter eggo ♬♪

    *blinks twice* SB!….omgeez, I haven't seen u in 4ever either. Missed u too. These posts haven't been decorated enough with food avi …..lol. I've been lurking, but Im commenting again :)

    She is so beautifully gorgeous. I think its great when you stand up for what you believe in…and she is lookin good doing it.

  • RainyDayGirl ♥Haiti♥

    There are no such civil unions. Also, why should heterosexual couples get to call their unions as “marriage” but homosexual couples' unions are labeled as “civil unions”? This is reminiscent of the “Separate but equal” law doctrine that allowed for segregation years ago.

    And how are celebrities going against the will of the people? Everyone has a right to their own opinion and speak their minds.

  • Evie

    Yes, there are no civil unions right now, but I think the gay movement should push in that direction instead of changing the definition of marriage. It's not segregation, it's just keeping a tradition that has been around for centuries. Why should we change the definition if the majority of Americans want it to continue to stay that way? It is tyranny for a minority to want to override the majority & change the will of the people.

    People voting….that is a democracy which equals “will of the people.” I just think that Hollywood goes overboard pushing their agenda & trying to be intimidating to people who hold traditional values….

  • RobismySL_ TeamPatzzandStewy

    The Celebrities also have a right to their opinions and should be allowed to speak thier minds. That's what Christian is doing, She's simply standing up for what she believes in. The Campaign is called NOH8 for a reason.

  • SquareBanana

    Celebreties need to come to the conclusion that a vote is final. So sit down and shut up.

  • EddysGal

    Every LEGAL citizen in this country has the right to voice their opinion. If they are NOT here legally, they need to get out. I am not a Californian resident any longer, but when I did live there, I voted for Prop 8. I know several gay/lesbian/bi people and do not begrudge them their right to make their choices about who they wish to be with. I do begrudge them their insistent demands that I “accept” their choices and change my beliefs, traditions and morals just to please them. No one is saying that people cannot be gay/lesbian/bi. By not changing the life-long definition of marriage, does not mean they are not permitted to make those lifestyle choices. If we remove Prop8, just because a minority are hopping up and down demanding that we do so, doesn't that then pose as (h8) towards those who do want marriage defined the way it always has been? Doesn't it then silence our voice?

  • Andrew'sAmy

    Wow. Ya know, prop 8 was, first of all, a standing up for what our government shouldn't be sticking their noses into in the first place by trying to re-define it. We already know what it means. Thanks. And two, the concept of true marriage is a Judeo-Christian thing. It represents Christ and the Church. That's its TRUE meaning and honestly, if you believe that marriage is anything else, you need to wake up because it's sacred. And most people today treat the wedding day like the most important thing as opposed to their marriage, so when the “romance” wears off and they get tired of each other, they find some way to divorce, like it didn't mean anything in the long run, which half the time, to most people, it doesn't. I'm not saying that Christians do things perfect (of course not, we're all sinners, duh) but we shouldn't have to be forced into recognizing something that in God's eyes isn't right. That being said, I am NOT a hater (in fact some good friends of mine are gay-I hate the sin NOT the person; you can love someone without agreeing with their life choices) but the state shouldn't have a right to FORCE my belief system on anyone else, and vice versa. And I don't like them taking Christian values and twisting them because a few people are winning that they can't get “married”.

    Oh, and side note: Why do they feel they have to be recognized by the state? Why not get some pastor somewhere to marry them? See what I mean? Is it really about expressing their love, or about shoving their views down everyone else's throat and FORCING a pastor to marry them when it goes against that pastor's beliefs? Something to think on.

    Ok, rant over. LOL Sorry Christian. I just don't agree with you.

  • Andrew'sAmy

    Prop 8 was a bill in California that, if you voted for it, basically said, “Marriage is defined as 1 man and 1 woman.” It passed in CA, meaning that the state only recognizes heterosexual couples as Married. And even though Californians have voted a couple of times on this legislation, keeping the definition as 1 man and 1 woman, the gay community and activists keep trying to get it overthrown even though we in CA have voted the same way multiple times.

  • EddysGal

    You said it perfectly! Prop8 has NOTHING to do with HATE, unless it's the reverse, ie, hating the Conservatives and Christians, Mormons, Muslims, etc… I do not hate folks that make those types of choices, please don't hate me because I am standing for what I believe in. I am not making anyone believe the way that I do, or live their lives the way that I do, please do not make me embrace your choices and beliefs either. This is our free will. This is our right. Just as it is yours. I just wish there was some fairness, some balance. I mean, why is there no one clapping and going about folks who voted for Prop8? Were they not standing up for their beliefs? What about Miss Prejean? She is beautiful and she stood up for what she believed in and it cost her a lot to do so. Where are the folks applauding her bravery and aplomb?

  • RainyDayGirl ♥Haiti♥

    “FORCING a pastor to marry them when it goes against that pastor's beliefs”

    It's not about forcing a pastor to do something against their will. It 's about being seen as equal. The government cannot force a religious leader to do a ceremony. That's not what the community is fighting for.

    I highly respect you for your opinions.

  • Andrew'sAmy

    Thanks for your reply, but actually, force is exactly what would happen if things like Prop 8 didn't pass.
    Let's pretend that Prop 8 didn't pass and marriage can be whatever anybody wants it to be… If there's no protection for Christian beliefs, pastors refusing to marry gay and lesbian couples could be seen as “hate crimes” since marriage can be whatever. And those people who say, “I have a right for you to marry me and my partner” could take legal action against the pastor and win, because “marriage” can be anything. The pastor, no matter the denomination, would have to marry them against his will because of state law, and would have no protection for his beliefs. Would that be fair to them?

    That's the reality of the situation, and it's better that the definition of marriage stays as what it has always been, than forcing the people who have clearly stated that they don't want marriage re-defined to change their beliefs for the sake of a few who recently decided they didn't feel included. Sorry, but again, marriage is a Judeo-Christian institution originally, and I'm tired of us Christians being walked over because our faith was what began this country. First, you don't want the Bible in schools; fine they said… Next, you don't want the 10 Commandments in courts, fine they said… well this is one thing that not just Christians, but the majority of the people of California say they don't want changed, and they need to leave that alone.

  • Andrew'sAmy

    Thanks. :)

    Exactly. And I find it funny that they say we're the haters when we are just protecting our beliefs like anyone else. If the shoe was on the other foot, and Christians were trying to get marriage changed, would we be seen as “standing up for our rights?” Probably not.

  • ive seen the twilight

    you know something similar to that happened her in louisiana

    a justice of the peace refused to marry a biracial couple he got his rights pulled and they are sueing him

  • Moni Spallelli

    I am a Californian And WE WILL keep voting until we are all equal. Did you ever hear a little thing called separation of church and state? People should not shove their religious views down my throat. Wasn't this country founded on religious persecution? Prop 8 is about equality, not religion. Also, it was the mormons who brought this up in the first place. Hmm, they at one time believed in polygamy, and some still do. Is that really the definition of marriage? And being gay/lesbian is not a lifestyle choice. It is only a choice if you decide to live a lie. I don't mean to sound very combative so I will try to lighten it up by a quote from the New Moon movie. When Bella finds out that Jacob is a wolf, she says something to the extend of, can't you just stop or change? Jacob responds, “It’s not a lifestyle choice, Bella. I was born this way.” Go team Jacob!
    I understand everyone has the right to their opinions and these were just mine.

  • Andrew'sAmy

    Thanks, and it's nice that you'll keep voting, but so will everyone else. And it will be the same each time. As I've already said here, marriage IS Judeo-Christian institution, and if you'd like a separation of church and state, then you shouldn't allow the government to dictate what “should be recognized” in the church. Gay and lesbian couples *already have the same legal rights* as married couples when they get civil unions. The only thing they don't have is the “marriage” TITLE. So is it really fair for the state to force pastors to marry people, when they are not in agreement with that couple's choice? I do appreciate your opinion, but the truth is that if things like Prop 8 didn't pass, the church's rights would be infringed upon, not the gay community who, again, already can have the same legal, equal rights as married couples. So is it really about expressing their love, or about them taking something they don't really need to take? Since they have equal rights outside the church?

  • Moni Spallelli

    Well not everyone in this country is Christian and believes that they are born with sin. Marriage is not just a Christian sacrament, it is also a legal matter. Same sex couple who have civil unions DO NOT have the same rights as the heterosexual married couples do. For instance hospital rights. If a person was in the hospital, their domestic partner may not be able to see him or her because they are not family related. Also civil unions do not recognize federal benefits such as taxes, property, etc. It is not just the term marriage, it has to do with being federally recognized. Civil Unions do NOT offer the same rights/benefits/protection from the federal government as legal marriages do. That is just a fact. Ok, this is all I'm going to say about this matter. Is it June yet?, ugh!

  • Nataniasmom

    I am not going to directly address certain comments that were made on this thread as I do not want to get kicked off the site for expressing my views…

    But, wait, why do I feel like my views might get me banned when certain people on here took up half the thread with their hate speech?

    ANYWAY, as far as Prop 8.
    It was a evil proposition designed to exclude people from rights and equality.
    Similar to “Jim Crow” of the past, when people said “we don't mind if you ride the bus, but you have to sit in the back (hardest to get to and from and the hottest part)” ” we don't mind if you have a drink of water from the drinking fountain, as long as it is not the same drinking fountain as me!”

    The fact is, it needs to be recognized by the state because if a gay mans “partner” gets sick he can not go and visit him in the hospital, if he dies the man can not get help with finances from the 401k. If they were to have children they have to jump through hoops to make it so that both of them are recognized as the parents.

    If a “straight” couple gets married, they are married…. there is no question of money or hospital visits, or children…
    That is the definition of SEPARATE AND NOT EQUAL.

    Marriages and unions were happening LONG before Jesus was born, it is not a Christian institution, Christianity is a very new religion compared to others.
    I say this as a Christian.

    As far as the “sin” aspect, that is NOT the case.
    No where in the Bible, in the Christian Bible, in the New Testament does it say ANYTHING about a gay couple and whether they should be allowed to be together or married.

    The part where it does talk about it are talking about homosexual offenders, meaning rapists and child molesters and prostitutes. And the other verse where it is mentioned is because that particular church was out of control and they needed some hard and firm rules to get it together.
    They also said that women could not talk in church, that women should be banished out of the village while they have their periods, and that we can not wear clothing made of more than one material, oh and people who have affairs should be stoned to death….

    We don't do any of that.
    The fact is calling someone a sinner is Gods job, not ours, and there is supposed to be separation of church and state,
    so all of that considered Prop 8 is WRONG!

  • Wtf

    Why not just keep blacks out “white only” bathrooms? Why not keep women out of voting booths? Why not just round up all the minortities and force them to live in a camp together? This issue is about civil rights, and just because YOU don't identify with this issue doesn't mean there isn't a whole world of people who do. Educate yourself, or continue on living in your willful bigotry.
