Rob Halford Supports Josh Kiszka After Greta Van Fleet Singer Comes Out
Judas Priest frontman Rob Halford sent a message of support to Greta Van Fleet singer Josh Kiszka after the latter came out as a member of the LGBTQ+ community.
The metal legend simply commented, “I love you Josh,” along with a number of supportive emojis, on the Instagram post in which Kiszka revealed his sexuality.
As reported on Tuesday (January 20th), Kiszka wrote, in part, “I’ve been in a loving, same-sex relationship with my partner for the past 8 years. Those close to me are well aware, but it’s important to me to share publicly.” He added that it was important for him to share his truth in the wake of new anti-LGBTQ+ legislation in Tennessee, where he has “settled a home.”
