Celebrity stylist Law Roach is throwing his support behind the Black Lives Matter protestors as well as any black-owned businesses that may have been affected by looting.
Roach, whose clients include Zendaya, Kerry Washington and Ariana Grande, took to Instagram to announce his contribution.
Alongside a photo of a coffee mug that read, “Here’s a cup of shut the f**k up,” Roach wrote of the protests, “If you don’t agree with or understand what’s going on please have this for breakfast.”
“Our young black babies are putting their freedom and lives on the line to try to change s**t,” he continued. “And if you are a black business that is destroyed and you are not insured, I’m starting a fund with 25k of my own money to help rebuild. And I’m asking my friends in fashion to donate as well,” he said.
While Roach hasn’t yet posted details on where others can donate, he quickly received support from other stylists, designers and celebrities.
“When you can, please include a link to donate,” wrote Samantha Burkhart, who is a stylist that works with Rosalía, Katy Perry and Billie Eilish.
Pyer Moss founder and designer Kerby Jean-Raymond replied, “fully endorsed.”
Demi Lovato, who worked with Roach for her comeback performance at the 2020 Grammy Awards, wrote, “This is incredible - send me info to donate to.”
Jameela Jamil, who is another client of Roach’s also requested information on where she could donate.
