"When I was a young girl and in my room dancing, I used to dance to 'Supermodel.' So remember what he always has said... 'You better work!'"

#DragRace S9 E01, "Oh. My. Gaga!"
A photo collage of Lady Gaga and Doechii at the 2025 Grammy Awards.
We also discussed the queer women, like Doechii, who dominated the 2025 Grammys.
"It was amazing...it's such a gift to the world. These artists are tremendous. Their messages are so important. Their music is amazing. And what they stand for, what they mean to so many people."
Lady Gaga is rumored to have five tracks on the upcoming "Devil Wears Prada 2" soundtrack, a report reads. The rumored tracks include "Shape of a Woman," "Runway" featuring Doechii, "Kiki" featuring Madonna, "French Lessons" featuring Chappell Roan, and "Energy" featuring Peggygou.
Last year, I asked Lady Gaga if she met/spoke with Chappell Roan at the Grammys.
"I saw Chappell for 3 seconds," Gaga told me. "I said, 'You inspire so many people.' And I meant that. It was just amazing to be there...it's the most fun I've ever had at the Grammys, honestly."

ON FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 21, I LOST MY DREAM JOB. I AM NO LONGER A STAFF WRITER AND EDITOR AT OUT MAGAZINE.
IN THE PAST FOUR YEARS, I HAD THE CHANCE TO COVER OUR CULTURE, SPOTLIGHT RISING STARS, IDOLIZE QUEER ICONS, AND VOUCH FOR NEW VOICES.
THE WORK WAS REAL. THE WORDS WERE MINE. THE STAKES WERE HIGH. WHATEVER COMES NEXT WILL BE AS TRUE, AS AUTHENTIC, AND AS DARING.
A FEW PIECES I'VE WRITTEN FOR OUT ARE YET TO COME. STAY TUNED. MEANWHILE... I HAVE SLEEP TO CATCH UP ON, BOOKS TO READ, AND NEW CLUSTERS TO EXPLORE.
Some news. 🌼
Thank you for sharing so many of your stories and trusting me to tell them.

#IndustryHBO spoilers! 🚨
You've all clocked the "Whitney" plot twist. But have you considered his last name yet? 🧐😏
PSA for all the #IndustryHBO hot takes and coverage:
It's Kit Harington — one R, not two.
I often still make that mistake despite knowing it's an R, so please consider this just a peer-to-peer tip. Many folks also don't seem to even know that.
Just a note, all love. 💛

This is a great little bit of investigation! Our data reflects the same - despite comparable cost and viewership, queer shows just don’t get as much of a chance. Boots had the numbers and the buzz. Thank you @bernardosim.com !
