Earlier this week, Josh Kiszka of Greta Van Fleet shocked the world when he came out as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community and he also used his platform to share his sentiments about the issues that the community has been facing across the United States.
Aside from the love he received from his followers and supporters, there was also one music legend who publicly expressed his support for the group's frontman.
According to Loudwire, Rob Halford of Judas Priest, who is openly gay and came out in the late 90s, shared a short but sweet message to the singer, writing, "I love you Josh."
Later in the post, Kiszka tagged a few organizations "doing great work" for the community and he wanted fans to support them.
Rob Halford is Openly Gay
According to Esquire Magazine, Rob Halford, who had been praised for being open about his sexuality, publicly came out on national television during his interview with MTV in 1998.
Recalling the incident, the metal rocker said at the time, he liberated himself from "self-imprisonment" and nothing could ever hurt him again.
Following this, he received countless letters from fans who praised and thanked him for his big move as he became an inspiration to them.
Being gay was not easy for Rob Halford as hiding his truth while he was at the peak of his career with the band led to him being depressed, isolated, and even alcohol and drug abuse.
Today, the rock musician is in a relationship with a man named Thomas Pence for more than two decades.
