Macklemore Has Been On Instagram Discussing Today's Referendum

Macklemore Has Been On Instagram Discussing Today's Referendum

Voting for the same-sex marriage referendum is already well under way across Ireland, with the London to Holyhead train producing some truly memorable scenes earlier this morning.

The eyes of the world are on us, as we could become the first country in history to legalise same-sex marriage by popular vote.

Seattle rapper Ben Haggerty - aka Macklemore - has pinned his rainbow colours to the mast ahead of today's polling. He should mackle more often, this guy.

Macklemore's hit 2013 single 'Same Love' was largely lauded for its exploration of of same-sex marriage and treatment of homosexuality in his native USA, with the rapper famously calling for "the day [his] uncles could be united by law."

Make sure you get out and vote Yes today, and let's have an 'Irish Celebration' as the results come in tomorrow evening.
