The vibe is weird, y’all — there’s feces in the lettuce, the temps are high and we’ve got more than a month until another long weekend.

This week Evan Mulrooney showed off his gold speedo glow up, Nancy Mace raged about Drag Race and Spain’s World Cup heroes gave each other a kiss.

Laron Best keeps skating his way to stardom. Over the last couple of years, the queer rollerblader has built up a massive following with his bold moves and jaw-dropping style. An Atlanta native, Best first dashed onto the scene in 2024 with his ” Be Who You Are” skate party, attracting 400 onlookers and revelers to a local park. This past weekend, Best took that energy and multiplied it by roughly 45,000. An estimated 1.8 billion people watched Sunday’s World Cup Final between Spain and Argentina, where Best was part of history. The vogueing extraordinaire was a backup dancer for […]

Grab your lasso, spurs and Stetson. Today is the fourth Saturday of July, which means only thing: it’s National Day of the Cowboy! And you know as well as we do that there are plenty of gay cowboys ’round these parts. As Ned Sublette once sang in a country waltz that Willie Nelson later covered, “Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other / What did you think all them saddles and boots was about?” But cowboys are also openly fond of each other, too. Take it from the Reddit users who  sounded off recently on the preponderance of gayness on […]

Image Credit: ‘Burnt Money,’ Strand Releasing Welcome back to our queer film retrospective, “A Gay Old Time.” In this week’s column, inspired by our Queer Latin Excellence series, let’s revisit an underrated queer film from Argentina, 2000’s Burnt Money. Throughout this past week, Queerty has been profiling and highlighting the diversity, range & accomplishments of the Latino queer community. In keeping with the celebration, this week we’ll be diving into an Argentinian film from the early 2000s that portrays the beauty, tragedy, and complexity of a groundbreaking queer relationship from the last century—and is perhaps a peak example of the mantra “Be […]

Hi Jake, This might sound like a weird question, but I honestly don’t know if I’m hot. I only came out a few years ago. Before that, I was hooking up with guys in secret, so I pretty much went along with whoever showed interest in me. But now that I’m actually dating openly, I finally get to decide who I’m interested in instead of just taking whoever comes along. The problem is… I have no idea where I fit.

Todd Blanche, nominee for US Attorney General, arrives to testify in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee in Washington, DC, on July 15, 2026. Tr*mp pick Todd Blanche thought he had his Attorney General nomination in the bag. But after he admitted last week that “mistakes were made” on the Epstein front, not to mention that training tape bombshell, he’s facing a host of controversy around the once-secure nomination. Last week, Senator Thom Tillis told Blanche that he wouldn’t hand over his vote until Blanche met with Epstein survivors protesting his nomination. Blanche did so, treating the victims with condescension […]

We’ve been following the story of Tr*mp’s latest FAFO mission closely, and we’re thrilled to report that That Man’s shenanigans are now threatening to topple not only his empire, but those of his children as well. When we last checked in with Ivanka, she was decompressing from the global fallout over her husband Jared Kushner’s plans to develop an Albanian island as a luxury retreat for the 1%. After drawing the ire of thousands of pissed-off Albanians, and friend of the gays Dua Lipa, Ivanka left for summer vacation… where her many enemies took their revenge in the comments. View […]

The following is an excerpt from the forthcoming book Muévelo: The Enduring Legacy of Latin Music Across Borders by Verónica Bayetti Flores and Miriam Zoila Pérez, out August 18 from Running Press Adult. Podcast hosts of Radio Menea, Miriam Zoila Pérez and Verónica Bayetti Flores, explore how Latin music has been shaped by movements of people, culture, and sound across decades of Latin artists and songs. Through collections of essays, playlists, timelines, album deep dives, and more, the authors share their examination of the role and influence that movements, migration, and colonialism, had and have on all types of Latin music genres, from bachata […]

We recently covered the traumatic tale of a man who came home to find his husband in bed with three other guys. Though the couple is open, the man says his hubby’s unsanctioned four-way represents a gross breach of trust. Now, he doesn’t know if they can continue forward. If only his husband would’ve planned better, the whole catastrophe could’ve been avoided! We kid, we kid. When it comes to successful open relationships, the most important rules are honesty and, well, open communication. But a direct offshoot of that is planning. That way, there are no hurried meetings or surprises. […]

And yet, with his new solo show, all he wants to know is: Are You Mad At Me?? After a hit run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival last summer, Safi brings the show to NYC for a limited engagement at the HERE Arts Center, blending stand-up, storytelling, music, and a cacophony of neuroses into something he calls “Sleep No More, but for people pleasers.” Your dose of fabulosi-TEA Subscribe to our newsletter for your […]

In February of 2023, West Virginia delegate Elliott Pritt became the only Democrat to support a statewide ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth. By April, Pritt had transitioned from Democrat to Republican, ostensibly because of his disapproval of trans care and queer rights. Today, Pritt is being charged with enticing a minor through the children’s gaming platform Roblox. So much for protecting the youth. @aaronparnas1 7/22 ♬ original sound – Aaron Parnas To make matters even creepier, Pritt has a day job as a public school teacher. A representative of Fayette County’s 50th district, Pritt also supported a measure […]

I am so much calmer [living outside of the United States]. I can’t tell you the difference that it makes for my mental health and my happiness level. Because it’s very, very hard to experience joy when you’re in the thick of the [Jeffrey] Epstein library; when you’re in the thick of that young boy who was left on the island by friends; that you can’t believe what the Supreme Court is doing, and doing boldly in front of everyone. Is he going to let us have elections? That’s my big question. [Whether I move back to the U.S.] really does depend […]

Photo: Xinger Xanger Over the past decade, Cain Culto, whose real name is Andrew Estevan Padilla, has delivered viral hits by tapping into the elements that have shaped his core identity. Hailing from Lexington, Kentucky, the Christian-raised Culto found solace in spirituality. His visuals often take inspiration from mythology and witchcraft, while his sounds are just as fluid as his sexual and gender expression, often combining Latin violin compositions with rhythmic pop and hip-hop beats.

In “a broken clock is right twice a day” news, we’re seeing a bizarre plot twist moment from ultra-MAGA pundit Laura Loomer in regards to Russia’s war against Ukraine. “I was wrong,” Loomer tweeted yesterday after a visit to Ukraine. The conservative activist often likened to a yassified Jigsaw came clean after seeing firsthand the devastation caused to Kyiv and other Ukranian city centers destroyed by Russian attacks. Considering Loomer’s former blind, borderline horny support of Tr*mp—and also considering the fact that FBI director Kash Patel just announced a mysterious trip to Moscow to hang with the new KGB—it’s a […]

Elliot Page (Shutterstock) Certain sections of the internet were raging this week after a photo of a muscled Elliot Page was shared. It showed Page on the cover of the August issue of Men’s Health. Among the first to share it was British screenwriter Graham Linehan, who is known for his anti-trans views. Linehan posted the image on social media and said in a caption, “This is like putting Karen Carpenter on the cover of ‘Shape’.” There’s one major problem. The front cover was fake. The cover star of the August 2026 issue of Men’s Health is the ridiculously fit, […]

Tr*mp’s love of fast food is a disgustingly well-documented phenomenon. In the past, it was a detail that endeared him to the working class voters he needed to win over in his first term. Now, it’s another liability, like everything else about the 80-year-old’s presidential legacy. By now we’ve all heard about the Taylor Farms iceberg lettuce scandal that has over 7,000 Americans in 30 states running to the nearest toilet with painful regularity. The cyclospora outbreak is entirely the Tr*mp administration’s fault in several obvious ways, starting with RFK Jr.’s deliberate cutting of the CDC’s parasite monitoring program that […]

There are so many people in this administration that have some weird, intense homoerotic feelings towards men, while also being incredibly homophobic. And not just homophobic, but hate-mongering, fear-mongering about the LGBTQ community. Let me be clear: I don’t think the homoeroticism is the weird part. The weird part is that they pretend that’s not what it’s about. Pete Hegseth is the example of this. The manly, manly rugged macho man. I don’t know if you know who Tom of Finland is? This is gay male porn that was drawn by a man. Pete Hegseth is the embodiment of that. […]

With nearly 90,000 followers on Instagram, Suarez is a popular fitness trainer with clients all over the world. “The cool thing about your first relationship is, you go through your first breakup,” he tells Queerty. “So I was heartbroken and it really made me ask, ‘What do I want in my life?’” How about we take this to the next level?
