24-year-old New England Patriot Bret Lockett is the latest professional athlete to pose for Adam Bouska’s NOH8 gay marriage campaign.
The NOH8 campaign posters features gay and bi celebrities and athletes posing with duct tape across their lips in silent protest of Proposition 8, a Constitutional amendment that doesn’t recognize gay marriage in California.
Lockett, who claims he had an affair with Kim Kardashian, is also a part-time model and rapper who dropped a forgettable hip hop track last month.
He told gay sports blog Outsports that he posed for the NOH8 campaign because he was bullied in high school.
“It’s a sad thing. And it’s not just being gay. There are kids who kill themselves for being a nerd or being fat. There’s not enough support in life today. We need to start lifting people up instead of trying to bring them down.”
