Hi Fam 🌈
Tegan Quin isn't holding back and we salute her! The pop star, author, producer, and... catfishing victim is ready to share her piece about fan culture and how it’s so powerful. PRIDE sat down with Quin to talk about her documentary Fanatical: The Catfishing of Tegan and Sara and why it's a rallying cry to finally address the “stan” culture that has cost so many their mental health, well-being, and even lives.
Honestly, it’s a great interview, get into it!
But that is not all... this week has given us the opportunity to talk to so many amazing folks including former Glee star Kevin McHale, Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Angie Katsanevas, and I got the thrilling and chilling experience of sitting down with Naomi Scott and Parker Finn the star and director of Smile 2, respectively.
We also have some fun with the science of hunkiness, offer some coming-out advice, watch Gay Twitter go utterly feral over some leaked gay sex scenes, and learn about another portion of our community, the solosexual.
Yes, every day is a school day — and EVERY week is a great one to be queer!
Plus, check out what the staff of PRIDE have been up to this week below! ⬇️
Cheers!
