Chaz Salvatore, son of superstar Cher and the late Sonny Bono, is the latest notable LGBT person to lend his voice to the "It Gets Better" campaign. In a new video Salvatore tells viewers, "There are communities of people just like you, willing to embrace you and support you and love you." He also says that he came out as a transgender man only a year and a half ago and that even as an adult he was living with a secret and feeling weird. After coming out, he says, " I feel great and found myself in a new community and embraced."
