Celebrities joined the chorus of support and pride across the Internet on Friday.

The Supreme Court's decision to recognize same-sex marriage nationwide has prompted a whirlwind of celebration among not only the LGBT community, but people of all walks of life.

Members of the Hollywood elite, from movie stars and Broadway legends to musicians and high-profile political leaders, have added to the conversation by starting the happiest Twitter storm that has ever existed.
