Hollywood is ecstatic over the gay marriage ruling
On Friday, the Supreme Court ruled that gay marriage is now legal nationwide.
The decision is a huge victory for gay-rights advocates just a little over a decade after Massachusetts became the first state to legalize gay marriage. And the majority of Hollywood seems to be thrilled with the court ruling that overturns same-sex marriage bans.
Here's what celebrities had to say:
Love won. #MarriageEquality
