Babe, We HAVE To Go To The Straight Pride Parade
After someone proposed a straight pride parade in Boston, MA, Twitter went into a frenzy. From hilarious jokes to hot takes, the internet couldn’t stop talking about the potential parade. No one managed to post something funnier than Eva Victor, who posted a video on Twitter where she pretends to convince her boyfriend to go to the straight pride parade. Enjoy.
Sunny Hostin of “The View” fame recently reacted to the Catholic Church’s anti-LGBTQ stance both on the show and on her Twitter. After telling her audience that her children would be attending the Pride parade like any good Catholic would do, she received some backlash.

Model Jazz Egger was so nervous to meet Bella Thorne, but she could never have anticipated that the bisexual actress would kiss her.
