Carly Rae Jepsen has announced she will no longer perform at a summer Boy Scouts of America event unless the organization changes its anti-gay policy. 

Jepsen and Train were scheduled to perform as headliners of the Boy Scouts’ annual national jamboree, but GLAAD led a campaign asking them to take a stand against the organization’s policy keeping out LGBT people. Now both artists have pulled out of the performance. 

In a series of tweets, Jepsen wrote, “As an artist who believes in equality for all people, I will not be participating in the Boy Scouts of America Jamboree this summer. … I always have and will continue to support the LGBT community on a global level … and stay informed on the ever changing landscape in the ongoing battle for gay rights in this country and across the globe.” …

On Friday, the Grammy Award-winning band Train announced that the group would only perform at the jamboree if the Boy Scouts ends its ban on gay scouts and scout leaders.

“When we booked this show for the Boy Scouts of America we were not aware of any policy barring openly gay people from participation within the organization,” Train said in a statement. “Train strongly opposes any kind of policy that questions the equality of any American citizen. We have always seen the BSA as a great and noble organization. We look forward to participating in the Jamboree this summer, as long as they make the right decision before then.”

What an awesome effort by everyone who contributed to this. Props to Carly and Train for doing the right thing — I hope the BSA notices, and that they either change their ways or they can’t find any replacements. Ha!
