Now that'sputting money where your mouth is.
UK singer Sam Smith has made a considerable donation to the Australian pro-marriage equality campaign,edo eroticism art reports The Sydney Morning Herald.

Australian Marriage Equality told SMHthat Smith's donation was made in advance of tickets going on sale in order to assist their current national "Yes" campaign — convincing Australians to vote for same-sex marriage. The remainder will go to support services for LGBTQ youth.
Smith is playing in the Opera House's Concert Hall, which has a capacity of over 2,000. With tickets ranging from AU$79.90 to AU$149.90 ($62.48 to $117.21), let's just say this donation won't be small — could be upwards of AU$50,000 ($39,000) if they book the whole venue out.
It's a bloody good day for same-sex marriage supporters too, considering PayPal just pledged to match single donations to the YES campaign of $250 or less, to a total of $50,000.
An email from Australian Marriage Equality email went out on Thursday:
Smith has already been quite vocal about Australia's marriage equality debate. In September, he posted a heartfelt Instagram urging Australians to vote for same-sex marriage to be legalised:
