How celebrities from all over the world reacted to the yes win

Warning: this post contains infinite rainbow and heart emoji's that we are absolutely in no way ashamed of. Yesterday, Australia sat on the right side of history, revealing a 61.1% majority yes vote in support of marriage equality. Tears of happiness were shed across Australia and wiped away with rainbow t-shirt and loving embraces. But it wasn't just the Aussie's who were feeling the love; across the world celebs and politicians took to social media to spread their joy in hearing the results.

Perhaps one of the most prolific members of the LGBTQ community (and also one of the most famous women in the world), Ellen DeGeneres posted an image to Instagram that said "I am proud of you, Australia." Likewise, Miley Cyrus took to Instagram saying that she was "proud to be Australian by association lol." Your eyes are about to get the rainbow treatment; see how the rest of the world reacted below.
