    As part of the ongoing "It Gets Better" campaign on YouTube (which was created as a worldwide effort to help prevent potential LGBT suicides), Chester has uploaded a short 18 second video on Talinda's channel, to provide comfort to depressed Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender teenagers, and to let them know that "It Gets Better":

    This will not only help the cause :] It will also help ANYONE who's going through a hard time too. Like me. I'm straight, it's just that life has been stressful for me so far...I needed this. Thanks Chester. :D

    I loved this video. I have been a bullied youth, even being the school "target". If I had this inspirational video back then, it would've made my life in school a lot easier.

    I think it's really awesome that Chester took part in this. I'm glad that people in general are speaking up against bullying. :D

    Haha we all know Chesters life got better. He went from being a "loner" in high school to being able to say "hey remember me? You probably made fun of me in high school, but now im a millionaire and singer to the worlds biggest rock band, so suck my balls"
    Its weird I was only born with 1 hand and my left arm cut off at the elbow and ive never been bullied for it. Like chester ive done this kind of stuff before. I once went to a children hospital for kids with disabilities like me and gave them a little speech bout how they may seem different but if you act like it doesnt bother you or make you feel down on yourself then most people will leave you alone.

    The funny thing is that Perez Hilton is taking this firm stance on bullying. Perez Hilton.

    Wait, Perez Hilton? AGAINST bullying?

    Fucking hypocrite.

    But back on topic, good going Chester!
