Listen to Taylor Swift deliver a moving speech in support of Pride Month
Taylor Swift gave a moving speech in support of both Pride Month and the LGBTQ community Saturday during the Chicago stop of her Reputation Stadium Tour at Soldier Field.
“It’s very brave to be vulnerable about your feelings in any sense, in any situation, but it’s even more brave to be honest about your feelings and who you love when you know that it might be met with adversity from society,” Swift said before performing her new song “Delicate”.

“And so this month and every month I want to send my love and respect to everybody who has been brave enough to be honest about how they feel, to live their lives as they are, as they feel they should be, as they identify. And this is a month where I think we need to celebrate how far we’ve come, but I think we also need to acknowledge how far we still have left to go.”
“I want to send my love and respect to everybody who, in their journey in their life, hasn’t felt comfortable enough to come out. And may you do that on your own time and may we end up in a world where everyone can live and love equally and no one has to be afraid to be vulnerable to say how they feel,” Swift said.
“Because when it comes to feelings and when it comes to love and searching for someone to spend your whole life with, it’s all just really, really delicate.”

‘Kill This Love’ is BLACKPINK‘s lead single from their new EP of the same name.

From Glee to the sea, Lea Michele is set to make waves as everyone’s favourite underwater princess, Ariel.

The cast will perform with a full orchestra while the original animated film plays behind them on a movie screen.
Audiences can expect to hear the film’s classic songs, like “Under the Sea,” “Kiss the Girl,” “Part of Your World,” and “Poor Unfortunate Souls.”
The performance takes place May 17 and 18.
Sophie Turner, known for her roles as Sansa Stark on Game of Thrones and Jean Grey in the X-Men movies (including this year’s Dark Phoenix), spoke about love in a recent interview with Rolling Stone.
More specifically, in the article, which focuses on her and GoT co-star Maisie Williams “Growing Up Game of Thrones,” Turner spoke about the way she loves. She revealed that she “never thought she’d get engaged so young, or at all,” adding, “I was fully preparing myself to be single for the rest of my life.” She is currently engaged to singer Joe Jonas.

She goes on to say that she believes her soul to be much older than her age (22, in case you’re wondering) and that she’s “lived enough life to know” when she’s found the person she wants to be with.
“I’ve met enough guys to know — I’ve met enough girls to know. I don’t feel 22. I feel like 27, 28.” When pushed to elaborate on the “girls” part, Turner continued. “Everyone experiments. It’s part of growing up. I love a soul, not a gender.”
Turner didn’t label her sexuality one way or another.
The final season of Game of Thrones premieres April 14 and Dark Phoenix hits theatres June 7, 2019.
