Bravolebrities Rock Purple to Celebrate GLAAD Spirit Day

Dorinda Medley, Kandi Burruss, and more share support for the LGBT community and stand up against bullying. 

By Jocelyn Vena

Bravolebrities stepped up their style with a pop of purple on October 15 — for a good cause. Launched in 2010, GLAAD Spirit Day helps bring awareness to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender youths, and folks can show their support annually by wearing the royal hue. "I am proud to take part in Spirit Day by wearing purple and taking a united stand against bullying and showing my spirit for the LGBT youth," Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills' Kyle Richards shared in a video about the day (below).
