Hi Fam 🌈
Who needs some queer joy in their life this weekend? Good news: we have you covered. From our interviews with the cast and crew of the awesomely cathartic Companion to steamy cast of For the Love of DILFs, and The Traitors, PRIDE is chatting it up and getting the tea on this week's must-see entertainment.
We're also basking in the solidarity of community through the darkest of times — perhaps the dark wokest of times? — and laughing along as MAGA gets a reality check.
Plus, check out what the staff of PRIDE have been up to this week below! ⬇️
Cheers ❤️

🏳️🌈 PRIDE IN THE STREETS! 🏳️🌈
I had an absolute blast representing PRIDE as a guest judge on the latest episode of OUTtv's hit reality show For the Love of DILFs alongside host and icon, Stormy Daniels. Our love stories from the most sincere to the most camp *matter*. So, getting the opportunity to be a part of this show and its unapologetically queer spirit was a delight and a gift! Also, it was just so much fun!

If the world is in flames at least we have some great new tunes to vibe to. Queer singer Charlie Houston's new track "Lighter" pairs her dreamy vocals with a throbbing beat. We're hooked!
