We’re all friends of Dorothy here, but looks like Little Red Riding Hood made it out of the friend-zone last night on Once Upon A Time.
After Dorothy falls victim to a sleeping curse, Little Red Riding Hood, named Ruby (the irony is not lost on us Oz fans) gives her a magical kiss to awaken her – True love’s kiss of course.
SEE, the gays can have a fairytale ending! Tune-in Sundays on ABC to watch their love story unfold. 
YASSSSS...and who else noticed the rainbow after the spell was broken?

        New Heated Rivalry episode could be released before season 2

Heated Rivalry might get an all-new bonus episode to be released in 2026, giving fans a bit more of Hudson Williams as Shane Hollander and Connor Storrie as Ilya Rozanov as they wait for a second season.
For context, Heated Rivalry season 2 was officially greenlit by Crave Canada (and parent company Bell Media), book author Rachel Reid, and showrunner Jacob Tierney. The latter was quick to manage expectations, however, telling fans that the upcoming season might not be released until 2027.

Cyd Zeigler, the reporter who exposed straight male hockey podcaster Dan Powers for praising Heated Rivalry on air and trashing the gay romance in private, is facing extreme backlash.
Dan and Chris Powers, brothers and co-hosts of the popular hockey podcast Empty Netters, went viral after they started reacting to episodes of Heated Rivalry on their show and became the face of straight hockey bros who were loving the queer love story.

        How 'Bridgerton' season 4 is queerer than ever

Dear Reader, the world of Bridgerton has always been inclusive, but season 4 promises to be queerer than ever. 
That’s due in large part to Bridgerton sibling Francesca’s bisexual panic moment at the end of season 3, when she came face to face with her husband John’s magnetic cousin, Michaela. And though the new season finds Bridgerton brother Benedict entranced by a mysterious woman he meets at a masquerade ball that’s part Cinderella story, part Romeo and Juliet, who can forget his dalliances with men and women?

        Bad Bunny's Super Bowl 2026 couldn't be gayer — bigots be damned

Conservatives who lost their minds over Bad Bunny — the biggest male pop star in the world — being chosen to headline the Super Bowl LX Halftime Show are about to find out that this year's broadcast will be much, much gayer than expected.
In the last few weeks, NFL (organizer), Apple Music (Halftime Show sponsor), and NBC (broadcast network) have been adding other singers who will also perform at the 2026 Super Bowl. Given that they aren't headliners, the general public hasn't reacted to these new names as intensely as they did for Bad Bunny headlining the Halftime Show.
