PRIDE NEWSLETTER - 10/04/24

Hi Fam 🌈

Be still our hearts, Heartstopper is back!

PRIDE sat down with starsJoe Locke and Kit Connor to talk about how the new seasons' mature themes reflect how much they have grown (and grown up) since the show first premiered. It's an incredibly sweet conversation with two of Hollywood’s brightest and hottest up-and-coming stars, and you can watch the full interview on the site now!

But that’s not all, not even close! PRIDE also chatted with American Horror Story starTaissa Farmiga about her favorite season of the hit show, what queer role she’d most want to play, and got the tea on her new film She Taught Love which stars alongside queer starArsema Thomas.

It's not just Hearstopper week, it's also the beginning of the spooky season, as well as LGBTQ+ History Month. It's a great time to cozy up with someone and watch a queer (horny AF) scary movie, and remember that what we have now includes representation in horror, and the ability to proudly enjoy it, and that wouldn't exist if it weren't for the sacrifices and the history makers that have come before us. Honestly, there's so much to celebrate now including, well Jocktober to all those who observe (or OBSERVE 👀) and our ability to assemble and let our freak flags fly proudly, or just chill poolside without favorite Sapphics.

That’s right, this week was a good one to be gay, gay, gay!

🏳️‍🌈 PRIDE IN THE STREETS! 🏳️‍🌈

Ricky Cornish at Heals and with elephants in Thailand

PRIDE’s Ricky Cornish went on the trip of a lifetime by visiting all of the breathtaking sights in Thailand. Not only did he get to interact with elephants in Chiang Mai and enjoy the gorgeous beaches of Krabi, but he also hit up Pangina Heals’ famous drag bar House of Heals in Bangkok. It was truly a trip to remember!

 🏳️‍🌈 PRIDE IN THE STREETS! 🏳️‍🌈

I had the absolute pleasure of hosting a Q&A at the ILM Theater in SF for Will & Harper, which by the way is INCREDIBLE and if you haven't watched it yet, what are you waiting for? After the screening, I got to sit down with the director Josh Greenbaum, and its stars, Harper Steele and Will Ferrell, to talk about the film and they were all delightful!
