PRIDE NEWSLETTER - 2/7/25

Hi Fam 🌈

This year’s Grammy Awards felt like a collective win for the queer community. From the incredible performances and Sapphic moments that made history, to the LGBTQ+ celebs like Troye Sivan, Wayne Brady, and Scott Hoying living their best queer lives on the red carpet, the message coming out of Los Angeles this week was of hope and promise to not give up the fight.

We're here, queer, in love, and getting it on. And we aren't going anywhere! No matter how much Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and his gang of “little boys” try to "delete" us, the fight continues!

What a week!

Plus, check out what the staff of PRIDE have been up to this week below! ⬇️

Cheers ❤️

PRIDE’s Ricky Cornish covered the 67th Grammy Awards in Los Angeles and interviewed some of our favorite queer celebrities! From Troye Sivan’s latest album to Wayne Brady embracing his sexiness, this red carpet had plenty of sickening moments.

🎧 In Our Ears: ‘Abracadabra’ by Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga made us wait... and wait... and wait for LG7 aka Mayhem (dropping March 7) but first with ‘Disease’ and now ‘Abracadabra’ she's making it more than worth our patience.
