Celebrities Unite to Support Bullied Boy After Emotional Video of Him in Tears Goes Viral — Today He Meets Tennessee NFL Star

In light of Christmas, one little boy got the surprise of a lifetime.

America and the world were swept off their feet due to a video of a boy experiencing first-hand bullying at school.

The footage first emerged on Friday, and in it, we can spot 11-year-old Keaton Jones who talked to his mother about his fear to go to lunch because of the everyday torture he receives from a few other boys.

One of his peers called the boy ugly, alone without any friends, and without solid food at home.

“Just out of curiosity, why do they bully?” Jones asked. “What’s the point of it? Why do they find joy in taking innocent people and find a way to be mean to them? It’s not OK.”

He then continued:

“People that are different don’t need to be criticized about it. It’s not their fault. If you are made fun of, just don’t let it bother you.”

Many celebrities exploded in rage because of the video and posted on Twitter.

The first one to use their voice was Ultimate Fighting Championship President Dana White, who invited the boy to the UFC headquarters in person.

Next to tweet was the President’s son, Donald Trump, Jr., who invited the boy to pay a visit to his home.

Among others, we read actor Chris Evans’ tweet, who asked Jones and his mom to attend the premiere of the new “Avengers” film in Los Angeles, scheduled for 2019.

Stay strong, Keaton. Don’t let them make you turn cold. I promise it gets better. While those punks at your school are deciding what kind of people they want to be in this world, how would you and your mom like to come to the Avengers premiere in LA next year? https://t.co/s1QwCQ3toi

Retired NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. asked Jones to “add me to your long list of friends.”

This is heartbreaking. But the response of support for him is a beautiful thing. Add me to your long list of friends Keaton. https://t.co/NKasvdo00u

Interestingly enough, rapper Snoop Dogg also wrote to Jones:

“Say lil Man U gotta friend in me for life hit me on dm so we can chop it up love is the only way to beat hate,” he wrote on Instagram.
