Perez Hilton and Co. Fight Prop H8

Gossip blogger Perez Hilton and a slew of his celebrity friends joined forces with photographer Adam Bouska and former Miss California USA pageant director Shanna Moakler Tuesday evening for Los Angeles' Prop 8 rally.

Bouska's NO H8 photo campaign has generated tremendous community support, and Hilton rallied stars like Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz, Kelly Osbourne, Eliza Dushku, Emmy Rossum and Sophia Bush to oppose the California Supreme Court's decision to uphold Prop 8.

"Its certainly been an interesting few weeks," Moakler said at an event to support Bouska's campaign before the rally and West Hollywood bar Fiesta Cantina. "But I'm glad to be out here. This is important."

People got their faces temporarily tattooed with the "NO H8" logo before Hilton called on everyone to get to the streets -- "This is a rally, not a VIP lounge."

The stars posed for photos before joining in the march through West Hollywood.
