Guns N’ Roses guitarist Slash has released a video in support of gay marriage.

In the video clip, Slash plays the US national anthem ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ on guitar in the background while his wife, Perla Hudson, speaks out on behalf of same-sex unions.

“I married my sweetheart, you should be able to marry yours too,” she says. “Say no to hate and yes to equal rights. Keep up the fight.”
