Boy Cries To Be Left Alone By Bullies, Doesn’t Expect Response From Celebrities Like Snoop Dogg And Chris Evans
By now, you've probably seen the name 'Keaton Jones' mentioned by at least one of your favorite celebrities on Twitter. The young student from Knoxville, TE has gone viral after appearing in a heartbreaking video that reveals the true damage bullying causes.
"They make fun of my nose. They call me ugly. They say I have no friends," Keaton says through tears in the video posted by his mother, Kimberly, which was reportedly recorded after Keaton had to be picked up from school to avoid lunchtime bullies. Though he goes on to detail how he and other children at his school are teased and tormented, he offers a message of encouragement, and ends the video by telling all victims of bullying that "it'll probably get better one day."
The powerful video struck a chord with viewers - including a whole host of famous faces. From Katy Perry, to Demi Lovato, to Chris Evans, celebrities across the board have rallied around Keaton. Though it began as a campaign for peace, which included at least two GoFundMe accounts aimed at helping the Jones family, it has now become shrouded by scandal after several apparently-racist social media posts by Kimberly Jones were uncovered, and speculations were leveled that she had encouraged her son to use racial slurs against his peers. Multiple celebrities have since voiced their continued support for Keaton, despite how troubled the accusations made them feel.
Scroll down to see the most heartfelt celebrity reactions, and be sure to add your thoughts in the comments.
This is Knoxville student Keaton Jones, and this is what he has to say about bullying:
The video, posted by his mom, has now gone viral, and celebrities are rallying around Keaton

Spot on! He really nailed it. Bullies are insecure people who are extremely insecure about themselves and take it out on others just to feel better about themselves. But in the end, they're not happy.

Mixed Martial Arts. Basically 2 people get in a ring or polygon of some sort. There are rules for points, takedowns hits etc. They beat the snot out of each other for a certain amount of time until either someone taps out, someone breaks something, or time is up and it is judged. I personally thought it to be dumb at first. But after learning what they are doing I can see the skill, and hard work that is put in to put on a show of strength. I generally only watch it when with friends or family. It is pretty neat and can be watched on YouTube to get more info on it.

True. There are many that don't even tell anybody. For me when things got too hard (half a class picking on me) I explained the situation to my mom and told her I wanted to skip a whole year at school. Mom was super awesome, she totally understood and let me stay at home that year. Next year I got back to same school and bullies where one year ahead of me, so I was free from them (because the picking and shaming usually occured inside the classroom). Unfortunately sometimes we need to take measures we shouldn't have to to stay sane, but eventually it does get better, just stay strong and be sure there's nothing wrong with you, they are the ones at fault

I used to get bullied for standing up for kids that were abused in school...but I have a very strong personality when it comes to any abuse and it just went over my head because I knew that I was better than the people that bullied those that were more sensitive to the harsh words and cruel things that kids can do to others...no school should allow that on their premises and the parents of these kids that do this need to step in and handle the situation...if my kid had ever done something like this he'd had been in the woodshed. My son is very compassionate to the under dogs just like me....it does get better and just be true to yourself and do not abuse others even when you yourself is going thru this...

All these celebrities are nice to speak up to him, even inviting him as a special guest to the Avengers premiere. However, I'd love to see what the parents of the bullies have to say. Not to acccuse anyone, or spread hate, but I know I'd be mad angry if I had kids and found out they bullied someone. Bully victims need all the encouragement, but the bullies need some education as well. Depression and suicide are serious problems, but even without it, bullying can actually turn into real assault, where the victim gets physically injured for life. Kids need to learn that another kid's life is no joke.

The latest news on this subject is that the mother is using this video to scam people out of money. Hitting up celebs and other people with money to donate to her gofundme account. So I don't know if this kid's story is real or put up by his mother. If this turns out to be true....Grrrrrr!!!

Found out this story is a scam. One of the celebs was going to have him and his family come tocsn event and the mother declined to come to the event and wanted money. She has changed her Facebook from public to private since she was caught. Check out Facebook. There have been several postings from this celeb showing how racist the family is. He wasn't being bullied, he was the bully and got beat up by some kids at school. They also have a Go Fund Me account that has about $54,000

I feel bad for the kid, because he's being raised wrong. It has come to light that his family is racist, and he gets slack because of that. The shield is innocent. His parents are terrible if they are racist. And he was beat up because he has racist views. Anyone who instilled that in this child is wrong. I hope the kid will grow up and love everyone. But his family seems to be horrible.

I have some news for everyone. For every Keaton, there are 100,000 more kids being tortured!! #1 PARENTS!! Do NOT wait until your child gets caught bullying to tell them how WRONG it is! Do NOT assume they are NOT one of the bullies! BE PRO-ACTIVE!! #2 PARENTS Do NOT assume the school is watching out for it, OR taking care of it!! BELIEVE ME!! I KNOW! I have a 17 year old autistic son, the schools are TOTALLY in DENIAL MODE!! They dont want to even acknowledge it is going on in their school! One day. when my son was in middle school, I walked him to his classroom. Another child, same age, followed us down the hall MOCKING the way my sons "stims" and walks! I turned THREE times and told him to stop it! He mouthed off to me and said he wasnt doing anything! I reported it to the teacher upon arrival at the classroom and POINTED HIM OUT!! Had a meeting the next day with the vice principal about it. This woman actually said to ME,...THE ADULT THAT WITNESSED IT! "He said he was just dancing

Had the same kind of thing happen when I was a kid. Left some nasty mental scars I'm still trying to heal. Really feel for this kid and it's great to see all the support. Funny thing, it's even helping me to see all the support he's getting and I hope that other bullied kids feel a little better knowing this.

Wow.. wow wow.. This thread just took me by storm! So many stars and celebreties are lining up to be friend to this kid. Humanity is out there people, don't loose your faith. And to Keaton - At such a small age your are so mature and courageous. I would be your friend too, tweeting you right away! Cullying is such a common thing and can scar children's for life, everyone should talk to their child and ask if they get harassed by any kid in any school and should report to authorities immediately.

My God. I was bullied too as a kid, even got jumped. And to be honest that bullying has affected my entire life. I'm still so insecure. One thing I can say is yes, it does get better as you get older. But when you're going through that bullying you feel like it will never end and you're worthless. Unfortunately some can't take the pressure and commit suicide. I hope something comes out of this, more than just celebrities saying "it's okay Keaton!" I hope this becomes a movement. Just as the sexual harassment issues have become a movement, I hope there's an anti-bullying movement. Because something NEEDS to change. I stand with Keaton! And I wish him and all the other people going through similar things a happy life!

Many people made fun of me in my early school years. I was too different, uncommon and introverted. And I haven't changed. However, over the years I learnt how to look confident and firm even when I'm not. Plus, most irritating people in my present class are too busy trying to make friends with everyone and acting like total idiots to bother with just one person. In fact, so busy that they can't even notice that some people despise their presence and company(even when given the clearest signals imaginable). Avoiding people works good.

I wish this boy wasn't being bullied, but what about the hundreds of other kids that are bullied every day. I am sure it does not make them feel better that this boy is getting so much attention while they continue to get bullied. How about putting some money into teaching school staff to stop bullying in their classrooms and their schools instead of throwing money and gifts at one bullied child.

Had I cried or showed this sort of emotion they would have killed me. Zero doubt. I'm alive because I never broke in front of any human. I have "black features" and lived in a trailer park. I was bussed in 45 minutes to an almost entirely black school. From the Klan to the hood Every.Damn.Day. I stopped eating lunch in the 5th grade, they wouldn't let me eat anyway. Bathrooms? Nope. The hits were livable, head in the toilet not so much. I was the Oreo N*****. When I escaped that situation I found myself in a snotty den of kids with cash. I'm a gay chick who can't hide it. Fresh hell. It's kind of funny the the result of that treatment left me with a bearing and demeanor that terrifies adults. Kids, even ones I don't know, run up to me all the time. Adults, clerks and the like will go out of their way to address my wife. Also funny because I'm the "nice" one. Wish I could convincingly tell this kid "it gets better" but uh...yeah. Not my experience thus far. It gets different. Meh.

Oh my gosh, I saw this yesterderday and I felt so bad for the kid but APPARENTLY (not saying this is true) there's more to the story! Keaton got beat up for repeatedly calling his classmates the N word. Normally I would be skeptical but someone has managed to find a family photo where Keaton is smiling with his simblings and they are holding a confederate flag (so he comes from a racist household) so I mean it's not impossible. (Again, this is just something I read, I am not sure if it's really true or if it's just a hoax)

Kids and teens can be so mean and evil, at the high school I´ve been bullied for wearing glasses, for NOT wearing Levis jeans, Adidas sport shoes, Lacoste polo shirts, Kappa sweaters, for being the best one in the English and French lessons (I´m German) and more, they threw my school bag out of the window from the 3rd floor, so that my pen and other stuff were broken, at the end I was so frustrated that my school grades decreased, became much worse, and I had to leave school with middle exam only, I´m so happy that Keaton has such famous supporters, I´d love to meet him and tell him to ignore such idiots who bully him, he´s a nice boy for sure!!!

All kids are bullied. They just make a VERY big deal about it these days because no one is teaching kids that they have a say in how they are treated. Dad's need to TEACH their boys to be MEN and not babies. Single Moms need to teach their boys and girls how to stand up for themselves. Put them in a martial arts class. Tell them it's ok to go to the principal's office and report it. Report it to the local police dept. But for heaven's sake DON'T BE A VICTIM.

I would like to know a little bit more about the kid. He has some physical limitations. I would like to know what happened to him, to make him look the way he does. His nose was obviously broken some time ago. Minor rhinoplasty may be in order. Then he'd look normal and be less of a target.

This is so sad. I will admit, begrudgingly, that I used to pick on kids from time to time. I'm not proud of it, and I know that it means nothing to say that others did it too. All I can say is that in all honesty, it's that kids flex their emotions outwardly. I got picked on by kids bigger than me, so it made me "feel like more of a bigshot" to pick on kids smaller than me. I would come home crying because people were picking on me and for some stupid@$$ reason, I felt it only necessary to return the favor. It's not right, and I think it is changing for kids these days - slowly. I've got a ton of regrets for not being stronger and standing up to people bullying others, and taking my own insecurities out on others, but I truly believe that kids are stronger these days, and smarter. It WILL change, I guarantee it.

I went to several schools growing up and I never actually saw any 'real' bullying. A few things here and there obviously but if anybody was ultra mean to a defenceless kid over and over they'd get the s**t beaten out of them. That's why it's so surprising to me to hear story after story of people being so mean. Maybe it's not as prevalent in Canada, I dunno. Either way, it reminds me of the Randy Newman song "I just want you to hurt like I do".

I sincerely hope this will be resolved from here on in, he's an adorable lad. Best wishes from Ireland.

I was bullied when I was young. I was thrown stones at me, called names, physical and verbal bullying. It reached to the levels of me being tired of it all and I tried to take my life from me 3 times. I'm happy that I failed each time because that made me think that I'm in this world for a REASON. It took me a while to get over the heavy down that I was going through but forcing myself I changed it all. I just started not giving a darn about what others think of me. I concentrated on my hobbies and activities I enjoyed doing. That started to raise my self-esteem and got me stronger. Now it's impossible to get a smile off of my face. Every stone I received, every time I was beaten, shouted at, etc. has turned me into the person I am now, a strong and an exceptional person. I'm proud to be me. You have a friend in me!!! Things DO get better. NEVER EVER give up. If anybody ever needs someone to talk to, please don't hesitate to write me.

Sometimes it gets better; sometimes you just end up withdrawing from the world around you, ending up a bitter, cynical shell of a person, resentful of what you had to endure at the hands of a******s & how they f****d you up in mind ( and sometimes body ) as you get older. Ideally, kick the s**t out the bullies- works wonders- sometimes...

I SO understand the mom and the kid in this. We live in a smallish town and I was bullied all through school and it kills me that this is happening to my son. It has gotten so bad that he even had his front teeth knocked out! I had to do a goFund me account last Thanksginging to get them fixed. He is constantly coming home in tears, bruises etc. Half the time he doesn't get lunch because they pour drinks on his food, fill his hair with salt from the salt shakers, push him around. It's never ending and heartbreaking. My son is also Autisic and has ADHD and has LOVED going to school from a small age, now he dreads it every day. The worst part is that the teachers and administration refuse to do anything about the problem for him or anyone else in the schools here. I've personally seen teachers turn their backs on a kid getting beat up. I stepped in and ran off the aggressors and when I asked them why they did nothing I was told to mind my own business that they had enough work to do.

Keaton- don't let those bullies get to you. They are cowards because they might have problems themselves, and the only way they can vent out their problems is by picking on other kids. I would be your friend, because I am a nice person, and I would probably tell them to stop if I was your friend. I hope you have a better future sometime, Keaton!

People often get confused between bullying and friendly insults. This kid is crying for f***s sake, people don't break down and cry that easily, nobody's that weak. I used to insult my friends too in school, I used to grab them by their shoulders and say things like "dude you're f*****g ugly, not even an a*s would make love to you" <- this is actually bullying, but the thing is, I did it differently, just after saying this, I used to say something like "well, that makes two of us, let's go cry in that corner". These stupid things used to make them laugh. It's alright if you insult your friend to make them laugh. But don't hurt anybody, bullying leads to depression, suicide and many bad things. Be kind, it doesn't cost anything to be kind to someone. If you bully someone, just stop, it may seem cool for now, but it is just plain cruel.

All these celebrities are nice to speak up to him, even inviting him as a special guest to the Avengers premiere. However, I'd love to see what the parents of the bullies have to say. Not to acccuse anyone, or spread hate, but I know I'd be mad angry if I had kids and found out they bullied someone. Bully victims need all the encouragement, but the bullies need some education as well. Depression and suicide are serious problems, but even without it, bullying can actually turn into real assault, where the victim gets physically injured for life. Kids need to learn that another kid's life is no joke.

The latest news on this subject is that the mother is using this video to scam people out of money. Hitting up celebs and other people with money to donate to her gofundme account. So I don't know if this kid's story is real or put up by his mother. If this turns out to be true....Grrrrrr!!!

Found out this story is a scam. One of the celebs was going to have him and his family come tocsn event and the mother declined to come to the event and wanted money. She has changed her Facebook from public to private since she was caught. Check out Facebook. There have been several postings from this celeb showing how racist the family is. He wasn't being bullied, he was the bully and got beat up by some kids at school. They also have a Go Fund Me account that has about $54,000

I feel bad for the kid, because he's being raised wrong. It has come to light that his family is racist, and he gets slack because of that. The shield is innocent. His parents are terrible if they are racist. And he was beat up because he has racist views. Anyone who instilled that in this child is wrong. I hope the kid will grow up and love everyone. But his family seems to be horrible.

I have some news for everyone. For every Keaton, there are 100,000 more kids being tortured!! #1 PARENTS!! Do NOT wait until your child gets caught bullying to tell them how WRONG it is! Do NOT assume they are NOT one of the bullies! BE PRO-ACTIVE!! #2 PARENTS Do NOT assume the school is watching out for it, OR taking care of it!! BELIEVE ME!! I KNOW! I have a 17 year old autistic son, the schools are TOTALLY in DENIAL MODE!! They dont want to even acknowledge it is going on in their school! One day. when my son was in middle school, I walked him to his classroom. Another child, same age, followed us down the hall MOCKING the way my sons "stims" and walks! I turned THREE times and told him to stop it! He mouthed off to me and said he wasnt doing anything! I reported it to the teacher upon arrival at the classroom and POINTED HIM OUT!! Had a meeting the next day with the vice principal about it. This woman actually said to ME,...THE ADULT THAT WITNESSED IT! "He said he was just dancing

Had the same kind of thing happen when I was a kid. Left some nasty mental scars I'm still trying to heal. Really feel for this kid and it's great to see all the support.

Wow.. wow wow.. This thread just took me by storm! So many stars and celebreties are lining up to be friend to this kid. Humanity is out there people, don't loose your faith. And to Keaton - At such a small age your are so mature and courageous. I would be your friend too, tweeting you right away! Cullying is such a common thing and can scar children's for life, everyone should talk to their child and ask if they get harassed by any kid in any school and should report to authorities immediately.

My God. I was bullied too as a kid, even got jumped. And to be honest that bullying has affected my entire life. I'm still so insecure. One thing I can say is yes, it does get better as you get older. But when you're going through that bullying you feel like it will never end and you're worthless. Unfortunately some can't take the pressure and commit suicide. I hope something comes out of this, more than just celebrities saying "it's okay Keaton!" I hope this becomes a movement. Just as the sexual harassment issues have become a movement, I hope there's an anti-bullying movement. Because something NEEDS to change. I stand with Keaton! And I wish him and all the other people going through similar things a happy life!

Many people made fun of me in my early school years. I was too different, uncommon and introverted. And I haven't changed. However, over the years I learnt how to look confident and firm even when I'm not. Plus, most irritating people in my present class are too busy trying to make friends with everyone and acting like total idiots to bother with just one person. In fact, so busy that they can't even notice that some people despise their presence and company(even when given the clearest signals imaginable). Avoiding people works good.

I wish this boy wasn't being bullied, but what about the hundreds of other kids that are bullied every day. I am sure it does not make them feel better that this boy is getting so much attention while they continue to get bullied.

Had I cried or showed this sort of emotion they would have killed me. Zero doubt. I'm alive because I never broke in front of any human. I have "black features" and lived in a trailer park. I was bussed in 45 minutes to an almost entirely black school. From the Klan to the hood Every.Damn.Day. I stopped eating lunch in the 5th grade, they wouldn't let me eat anyway. Bathrooms? Nope. The hits were livable, head in the toilet not so much. I was the Oreo N*****. When I escaped that situation I found myself in a snotty den of kids with cash. I'm a gay chick who can't hide it. Fresh hell. It's kind of funny the the result of that treatment left me with a bearing and demeanor that terrifies adults. Kids, even ones I don't know, run up to me all the time. Adults, clerks and the like will go out of their way to address my wife. Also funny because I'm the "nice" one. Wish I could convincingly tell this kid "it gets better" but uh...yeah. Not my experience thus far. It gets different. Meh.

Oh my gosh, I saw this yesterderday and I felt so bad for the kid but APPARENTLY (not saying this is true) there's more to the story! Keaton got beat up for repeatedly calling his classmates the N word. Normally I would be skeptical but someone has managed to find a family photo where Keaton is smiling with his simblings and they are holding a confederate flag (so he comes from a racist household) so I mean it's not impossible. (Again, this is just something I read, I am not sure if it's really true or if it's just a hoax)

Kids and teens can be so mean and evil, at the high school I´ve been bullied for wearing glasses, for NOT wearing Levis jeans, Adidas sport shoes, Lacoste polo shirts, Kappa sweaters, for being the best one in the English and French lessons (I´m German) and more, they threw my school bag out of the window from the 3rd floor, so that my pen and other stuff were broken, at the end I was so frustrated that my school grades decreased, became much worse, and I had to leave school with middle exam only, I´m so happy that Keaton has such famous supporters, I´d love to meet him and tell him to ignore such idiots who bully him, he´s a nice boy for sure!!!

All kids are bullied. They just make a VERY big deal about it these days because no one is teaching kids that they have a say in how they are treated. Dad's need to TEACH their boys to be MEN and not babies. Single Moms need to teach their boys and girls how to stand up for themselves. Put them in a martial arts class. Tell them it's ok to go to the principal's office and report it. Report it to the local police dept. But for heaven's sake DON'T BE A VICTIM.

I would like to know a little bit more about the kid. He has some physical limitations. I would like to know what happened to him, to make him look the way he does. His nose was obviously broken some time ago. Minor rhinoplasty may be in order. Then he'd look normal and be less of a target.

This is so sad. I will admit, begrudgingly, that I used to pick on kids from time to time. I'm not proud of it, and I know that it means nothing to say that others did it too. All I can say is that in all honesty, it's that kids flex their emotions outwardly. I got picked on by kids bigger than me, so it made me "feel like more of a bigshot" to pick on kids smaller than me. I would come home crying because people were picking on me and for some stupid@$$ reason, I felt it only necessary to return the favor. It's not right, and I think it is changing for kids these days - slowly. I've got a ton of regrets for not being stronger and standing up to people bullying others, and taking my own insecurities out on others, but I truly believe that kids are stronger these days, and smarter. It WILL change, I guarantee it.

I went to several schools growing up and I never actually saw any 'real' bullying. A few things here and there obviously but if anybody was ultra mean to a defenceless kid over and over they'd get the s**t beaten out of them. That's why it's so surprising to me to hear story after story of people being so mean. Maybe it's not as prevalent in Canada, I dunno. Either way, it reminds me of the Randy Newman song "I just want you to hurt like I do".

I was bullied when I was young. I was thrown stones at me, called names, physical and verbal bullying. It reached to the levels of me being tired of it all and I tried to take my life from me 3 times. I'm happy that I failed each time because that made me think that I'm in this world for a REASON. It took me a while to get over the heavy down that I was going through but forcing myself I changed it all. I just started not giving a darn about what others think of me. I concentrated on my hobbies and activities I enjoyed doing. That started to raise my self-esteem and got me stronger. Now it's impossible to get a smile off of my face. Every stone I received, every time I was beaten, shouted at, etc. has turned me into the person I am now, a strong and an exceptional person. I'm proud to be me. You have a friend in me!!! Things DO get better. NEVER EVER give up. If anybody ever needs someone to talk to, please don't hesitate to write me.

Ideally, kick the s**t out the bullies- works wonders- sometimes...

I SO understand the mom and the kid in this. We live in a smallish town and I was bullied all through school and it kills me that this is happening to my son. It has gotten so bad that he even had his front teeth knocked out! I had to do a goFund me account last Thanksginging to get them fixed. He is constantly coming home in tears, bruises etc. Half the time he doesn't get lunch because they pour drinks on his food, fill his hair with salt from the salt shakers, push him around. It's never ending and heartbreaking. My son is also Autisic and has ADHD and has LOVED going to school from a small age, now he dreads it every day. The worst part is that the teachers and administration refuse to do anything about the problem for him or anyone else in the schools here.

People often get confused between bullying and friendly insults. This kid is crying for f***s sake, people don't break down and cry that easily, nobody's that weak. I used to insult my friends too in school, I used to grab them by their shoulders and say things like "dude you're f*****g ugly, not even an a*s would make love to you" <- this is actually bullying, but the thing is, I did it differently, just after saying this, I used to say something like "well, that makes two of us, let's go cry in that corner". These stupid things used to make them laugh. It's alright if you insult your friend to make them laugh. But don't hurt anybody, bullying leads to depression, suicide and many bad things. Be kind, it doesn't cost anything to be kind to someone. If you bully someone, just stop, it may seem cool for now, but it is just plain cruel.
