The support of one of the stars of "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert," Guy Pearce, was also announced on the same day – only the latest in a line of high profile Australians to endorse the campaign.

Pearce joins high-profile Australians including David Stratton, actor Hugh Jackman and Oscar-winning costume designer Lizzie Gardiner in going public with their support.
