While same-sex couples now have the right to marry in 35 states plus the District of Columbia, Smith tells Rolling Stone the fight isn’t nearly won. “This video shows my dreams that one day gay men and women and transgendered men and women all over the world, like all our straight families and friends, will be able to get married under any roof, in any city, in any town, in any village, in any country,” wrote the singer. Smith echoed these sentiments in a Facebook post accompanying the video’s release. “I’m walking in, I’m going, ‘Why? Why are a man and a man not allowed to get married in this room?’ Because it’s the most natural thing.” “Going to the church today, it’s like, ‘This is the first time we’ve let people with big noses in.’ That’s the equivalent to me,” Smith adds.
