A federal appeals court has ruled California's Proposition 8 -- an amendment which banned same sex marriage -- unconstitutional in an historic decision announced earlier today (Feb. 7).
According to Judge Stephen Reinhardt: "Proposition 8 serves no purpose, and has no effect, other than to lessen the status and human dignity of gay men and lesbians in California." His decision will likely send the case to the U.S. Supreme Court. Since the ruling, some of music's biggestcelebrities have since voiced their opinions on the momentous ruling on Twitter.
