  2. Published by Q Magazine Billie Eilish's career has been a striking success story, but it doesn't seem like the spotlight has had a positive impact on her mental health.

  4. Published by The New Arab Iraq's parliament passed a law criminalising same-sex relationships with a maximum 15-year prison sentence on Saturday, in a move it said aimed to uphold religious values but was condemned by rights advocates as the latest attack on the LGBT community in Iraq. The law aims to “protect Iraqi society from moral depravity and the calls for homosexuality that have overtaken the world,” according to a copy of the law seen by news agency Reuters. It was backed mainly by conservative Shi'ite Muslim parties who form the largest coalition in mainly Muslim Iraq's parliament. The Law on Combating Prostit… Read More View the full article

  6. Published by Raw Story Melania Trump returned to the political scene with a low-key solo appearance for Log Cabin Republicans at Mar-a-Lago. The former first lady had previously joined her husband earlier this month at a high-dollar fundraiser in Palm Beach, but she stepped out without him Saturday at the headliner for the LGBTQ conservative group and was greeted with polite but subdued applause, reported The Daily Beast. “Melania is a very private figure, and her public appearances never disappoint,” said Sophia Hutchins, a Trump 2024 surrogate and convention delegate.

  7. Published by DPA International If you didn't know better, you wouldn't automatically recognise the Pet Shop Boys when seeing them in civilian dress. Arriving for an interview at the record company's offices in West London to discuss their new album, singer Neil Tennant (69) is dressed smartly, almost posh, while his colleague and keyboardist Chris Lowe (64) appears in a washed-out hoodie. “He didn't dress up,” says Tennant with a grin about his colleague, who – unlike in photos and at concerts – is not wearing his sunglasses. The Pet Shop Boys are in the best of spirits – and it's no wonder. After around 40 years in the bus… Read More View the full article

  12. Published by BANG Showbiz English Megan Thee Stallion is being sued for allegedly creating a hostile work environment and forcing her cameraman to watch her having lesbian sex. The 29-year-old ‘Savage' rapper faces the salacious claims from her ex-employee Emilio Garcia, who says in a claim filed in Los Angeles that emerged on Tuesday (23.04.24) he was made to witness her have sexual relations with a female lover as they rode in a SUV during a stop-off on her tour in Ibiza, Spain, in June 2022.

  13. I don't know the details, but essentially Boytoy was either bought or in some other way merged into GayGuides. Think of GayGuides as the new home for the content that used to be on Boytoy. So all of the content under the old domain was moved somewhere under the new one. Unfortunately the technical team at that site did not leave good redirects to take users from the old address to the new one. That means older posts/threads that referenced that original boytoy.com domain don't necessarily end up making its way automatically to the new location and can appear as broken. So it's not you doing something wrong. It's technically not even them doing something wrong. It's just that they did not leave good "digital breadcrumbs" to point you to where the content has moved over the years. Think about if you moved from one house to another... if you did not leave a change of address or your change of address expired, you would have a hard time finding someone who moved without manually trying to figure out where the new place is.
  14. Published by Euronews (English) When same-sex marriage was legalised in Greece back in February, LGBTQ+ campaigners celebrated. Now, though, the British Foreign Office has issued new travel advice for queer people travelling to the country.

While it states that “attitudes are generally much more welcoming in Athens and on many Greek islands, particularly on Lesvos, Mykonos and Skiathos,” there are concerns that queer visitors could face prejudice elsewhere.

  15. Published by The Western Journal At a time when quality wholesome children's entertainment has never been harder to come by, the Australian animated show “Bluey” has stood out from the rest. The show follows a family of anthropomorphic blue heelers as they face various day-to-day adventures together which often teach the family's older daughter Bluey valuable life lessons. For a newly released series, the values of “Bluey” are remarkably traditional. That is until the series introduced its very first LGBT characters in Monday's brand-new episode. https://youtu.be/vDVFk56PTd8?si=BO7m2Y7IgzyQyHHj In a blink-and-you'll-miss-it m… Read More View the full article
  16. Published by Raw Story Democrats believe that a right-wing overreach by Republicans presents them with an opportunity to pick up legislature seats in deep-red Idaho. Dozens of left-leaning candidates are seeking statewide office as part of a recruitment strategy that has put a Democrat on the ballot in every district in the state for the first time in at least 30 years. It follows the GOP supermajority's enactment of a strict abortion ban, limited LGBTQ+ rights and a proposal to jail librarians for circulating books they don't like, reported Politico. “You can't win if you don't run,” said legislative candidate Lore… Read More View the full article

The 42-year-old actor starred as heartthrob Aaron Samuels in the 2004 cult classic – which followed Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams, Amanda Seyfried and Lacey Chabert as a group of popular girls in a comedy that serves as a parody of the high school clique system – and took to social media on Friday (19.04.24) evening to mark the 20th anniversary of the premiere.

  20. Published by Mirror By Vassia Barba The questionnaire used in the jury selection process for Donald Trump's historic hush money trial is “by far the most exhaustive” the court has ever used, according to New York Judge Juan Merchan. Trump returned to a New York courtroom on Tuesday as the jury selection process for his historic trial, the first-ever criminal trial for a current or former US president entered its second day. The process is proving challenging as no one has been chosen to be on the panel of 12 jurors and six alternates yet, with all jurors excused either after saying they couldn't be impartial or b… Read More View the full article

Earlier this week, the Atlantic's Elaine Godfrey reported that, according to several of her sources, the Florida Republican sent explicit photos and videos of women to some of his colleagues in Congress. One video was allegedly of a young woman hula hooping while naked. “Matt sent this to me, and you're missing out,” one unnamed Gaetz aide said, telling… Read More View the full article
