Hope everyone’s having a great Pride Month! Shoutout to the gays. From Adele clapping back at a homophobic audience member to Kehlani turning Weho Pride into a pro-Palestine march, celebs around the world are out here making pride political. And some of the other ones are just happy to be there. Here’s how this year’s celebs are making Pride femininomenal (or mascuninomenal, or theminominal), including a “Nonsense” outro and one half of everyone’s favorite queerbaity Bridgerton ship.
As a Mets fan! And as queer. I was like “What?! That’s great!”
Nicola Coughlan turned a viral interview clip into a song benefiting LGBTQ+ charities. In “Shoes… More Shoes,” she shouts out “all the wee lesbians” and “girly pops.” Near the end of the track, she muses, “Have you ever noticed that transphobes have really shitty hair? That’s karma, bitch.” We’re sure self-appointed gay pop CEO JoJo Siwa would be proud.

Happy *girl wearing a skirt as a top* pride! @hilaryduff 👄🛍️ #bratz #hilaryduff #pride

Stitch is leathered up as he dances to Troye Sivan’s “Rush” at Disneyland Pride. 🏳️🌈
— Pop Crave (@PopCrave) June 19, 2024Once again Disneyland Pride Night comes through with the cuntiest fur characters this side of Anthrocon. Last year it was Clarabelle Cow sissying that walk. This year it’s Stitch all leather’d out.
happy fathers day and pride love the gallaghers #foryourpride 🏳️🌈👩❤️💋👩

Somebody Somewhere’s Murray Hill was profiled in the New York Times this Pride, showing off some of his latest projects. Hill is spending some of Pride Month location scouting for a show he’s developing called Shorty Big Time, a lower stakes mystery procedural. “Someone took somebody’s teeth at the nursing home, and they call me in,” he said of a potential plotline. “Or the gay rodeo’s in town, and the chaps are missing. Just fun and campy. We need it. Things are rough out there.”
🎥| @ChappppellRoan’s "My Kink Is Karma" speech at @GovBallNYC
"This is a response to the White House, who asked me to preform for Pride. We want liberty, justice, and freedom for all. When you do that, that’s when I’ll come." pic.twitter.com/OwQcCSCh5m
— Chappell Roan Now (@ChappellRoanNow) June 9, 2024At the Governor’s Ball June 9, Chappell Roan dedicated “My Kink is Karma” to the White House, “who asked me to perform at Pride. We want liberty, justice, and freedom for all,” she said. “When you do that, that’s when I’ll come.” Roan appeared to be alluding to Gaza, as she also said freedom for all especially means “freedom for all oppressed in occupied territories.”
Ncuti Gatwa’s 15th Doctor did a little kissin’ on a man — and during Pride Month, no less! Jonathan Groff guest starred as Rogue (not that one), and flirted/smooched the Doctor in a Bridgerton-esque episode. In the words of the Ninth Doctor, “Fantastic!”
Once a #Nonsense stan, always a Nonsense stan 😌 @Sabrina Carpenter #GovBall #sabrinacarpenter @govballnyc
♬ original sound - Island RecordsAt the Governor’s Ball, Sabrina Carpenter offered us this: “Do I text him back it’s such a tough call/that won’t fit inside me bro, I’m dumb small/people who hate pride can suck my gov balls.” We’ll forgive the slant rhyme for the allyship.
Troye Sivan released a fun gay album last year, called Something to Give Each Other, now, throughout Pride, Troye Sivan is running a fun, gay tour, that includes him singing on his knees into a microphone and dressing in drag. Fun! Hot! Gay!
pride.

Adele goes off on audience member who yelled “Pride sucks” at her concert tonight:
“Did you come to my f*cking show and just say that Pride sucks? Are you f*cking stupid? Don’t be so f*cking ridiculous. If you have nothing nice to say, shut up, alright?” pic.twitter.com/M3yl2mdzLV
— Pop Base (@PopBase) June 2, 2024At her Las Vegas residency, Adele shouted down a concertgoer who hollered “Pride sucks!” during her set. “Did you come to my fucking show and just say that Pride sucks?” she said. “Are you fucking stupid?”
Kehlani at WEHO Pride today! 🇵🇸 pic.twitter.com/qLALtyb4Z6
— 🏁 (@concertleaks) June 2, 2024Kehlani invited pro-Palestine demonstrators to march with them at West Hollywood Pride June 1. It’s a continuation of the messaging of their latest single, “Next 2 U,” which also expressed strong solidarity with Palestine.

Jessica Madsen, who plays Cressida Cowper on Bridgerton, reaffirmed her bi identity in a Pride post June 1. She was supported by the whole ton, including Julia Quinn. But does that mean Creloise will become canon???
