A’keria C. Davenport has been channelling the essence of Buffy the Vampire Slayer since her stint on the 11th season of RuPaul’s Drag Race earlier this year because honey, she’s been slaying the industry left right and mothertucking centre.

Ever since Disney announced animated classic The Little Mermaid would be getting the live-action treatment, fans have been desperate to know who would be portraying Ursula, arguably one of the studio’s most popular villains (and a queer icon). While many have put themselves forward for the role, the one name that keeps popping up is comedian Melissa McCarthy – star of hit movies like Bridesmaids and Spy – especially after Variety claimed she was in “early talks” to appear in...

After what feels like forever, with Marvel executives constantly promising that an LGBTQ superhero is coming, the major movie studio has revealed who the first one will be – the Thor franchise’s Valkyrie, played by Tessa Thompson. It wasn’t much of a surprise to fans, as Tessa – who identifies as bisexual herself – confirmed back in 2017 that a scene where a woman left Valkyrie’s bedroom, implying that they had been intimate together, had been cut from Thor: Ragnarok. At the...

Marianne Williamson quickly became the most Googled candidate after last night’s Democratic primary debate after spouting off some woo-woo nonsense along with several stinging spot-on critiques of American politics. As one of the LGBTQ community’s first celebrity allies, it’s worth taking a look at her candidacy. The self-help guru has millions of fans across the country who tacitly endorse her variety of feel-good mumbo jumbo and are willing to overlook her verbal crystal shining in favor of her common sense...

BibleGirl, self-described “internet reality trash” and pop culture-savvy meme queen, has paved her own way to notoriety without the help of RuPaul and her reality show behemoth. You’ll see her at DragCon alongside the A-list queens, and you’ll hear her name pop up in countless fandom discussions, but you’ll also see her poking fun at herself on social media – and probably stirring up drama there, too. “I would describe my drag as being an amalgamation of satire and...

Saturday’s WNBA All-Star Game ended up as a 129-126 win for Team A’ja Wilson over Team Elena Delle Donne. The game was also a look at the next generation of the 23-year-old league.

FX’s hit horror anthology series will be returning for a highly-anticipated ninth season later this year called 1984, and while – as usual – we don’t know what to expect plot-wise, we’re slowly but surely being drip-fed information to keep us satiated. One thing we do know for sure is that the new season will be premiering on FX in the US on 18 September. As for UK audiences, there’s no official premiere date yet, but last year’s season Apocalypse began...

Later, Cyrus came out to his friend Buffy, telling her he feels “weird” and “different”. Her response was perfect. “Cyrus, you’ve always...
