The video of Keaton Jones' emotional message about bullying has gone viral. The 11-year-old boy is now gaining support from a myriad of people, including several big-name celebrities.

In the video, Jones, a student from Maynardville, Tennessee, asks, "Just out of curiosity, why do they bully? What's the point of it? Why do you find joy in taking innocent people and finding a way to be mean to them?"

While trying to hold back his emotions, Jones shared that the bullies in his school make fun of his nose, call him ugly and say that he has no friends. He also said that they pour milk and food down his clothes during lunch.

In response to the viral video, many people have expressed support for Jones, including a number of famous people.

Pop superstar Justin Bieber posted two videos on his Instagram account in response to the video of Jones. Bieber called the boy a legend before adding, "You're inspiring so many people with your message and your authenticity and your realness."

Movie star Chris Evans, on the other hand, told the boy to stay strong. "Don't let them make you turn cold. I promise it gets better," he wrote. Evans also invited Jones and his mother to attend the premiere of the upcoming "Avengers" film next year.

Singer Katy Perry also responded to the viral video, saying, "This broke my [heart] today. Please be kind to one another."

"Different is special. You're beautiful Keaton. Inside and out," wrote "Wonder Woman" star Gal Gadot on Twitter.

Rapper Snoop Dogg, on the other hand, said Jones has a friend in him and noted that love is the only way to beat hate.

The video was posted by the boy's mother, Kimberly, who clarified that her son asked to record the video after he asked her to pick him up because he was afraid to go to lunch.

The video has been viewed 19 million times and shared almost 400,000 times as of Sunday evening.
