Hi Fam 🌈
Sometimes, all you can do is laugh — and this week provided plenty of punchlines to keep us giggling.
Whether it was Bob the Drag Queen reading the Real Housewives down, the internet’s ruthless roasting of JD Vance and Elon Musk, or Kori King being exactly that unhinged and hilarious girl we knew she was, this week was just full of so much laughter. And that is powerful.
But this week wasn’t just laughter; we also mourned the loss of adult entertainer Tim Kruger, celebrated Gabby Windey and Robby Hoffman’s surprise Las Vegas wedding, and felt the love from some of our favorite celebrities on the red carpet — and that is far from all. Keep scrolling for more!
Plus, check out what the staff of PRIDE have been up to this week below! ⬇️
Cheers!

🏳️🌈 PRIDE IN THE STREETS! 🏳️🌈

PRIDE’s Ricky Cornish covered the 33rd annual Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party and spoke with queer icons and allies on uniting during these tough times for the LGBTQ+ community.
🏳️🌈 PRIDE IN THE STREETS! 🏳️🌈

I attended two screenings this week for Mickey 17 and Opus. While wildly different films, they both hit differently with their mediations on authoritarianism and cults of personality, respectively. Keep an eye out for PRIDE's reviews of both, coming soon!

PRIDE ON OUR SCREENS 👀

Here’s what we’re watching, listening, and vibing to this weekend!
🎥 Film: There's a Zombie Outside
Horror is best when it has something to say underneath its bloody veneer. In the case of There’s a Zombie Outside, this queer horror film delves into the way art shapes our identity and becomes entangled with it. Beloved scream queen Tiffany Shepis makes an appearance, as does Peaches Christ. Available now on VOD.
📺 Stream & Chill: Larissa: The Other Side of Anitta
The world best knows Larissa de Macedo Machado by her stage name, Anitta. But now, the bisexual Brazillian pop diva is ready to let the world meet the real her in this new and intimate documentary. Streaming now on Netflix.
🎧 In Our Ears: ‘Anxiety’ by Doechii
Doechii has a lot of nerve for being this incredible. Her latest is her new take on ‘Anxiety,’ a song she was originally the featured artist on for Sleepy Hallow in 2023. This new version is all her and sheer excellence.
