Andrea Marks Joseph READ TIME: 6 MIN.
Welcome to our latest round-up of queer celebs who served, and those who came together to maximize their joint slay! These Instagram posts brought us fun, fierce energy at a time we needed it most.
This week's big slays included: Rhyheim Shabazz rocking a custom-made white jumpsuit look on stage at the GayVNs to accept his many awards; Performers Matthew 'A Taste of Matt' Hanham and Roxas Caelum shared a post-shower mirror selfie while getting ready for the same awards show together for the second year in a row.
We also have queer icon Alan Cumming posing for Nasty Pig in the jockstraps he wears "every single day;" queer artists Keiynan Lonsdale, BVT, and Basjia starred in the horny summer polycule music video of our dreams; Chrissy Chlapecka poses for a photoshoot wearing a dress made entirely of glow-in-the-dark stars. There's also performer and model Robyn Robin showed off their pole dancing skills in a killer bodysuit with badass thigh-high boots; "The White Lotus" actor Lukas Gage's upcoming memoir has a title that is a slay in itself; and we couldn't love Dove Cameron's futuristic outfit and bejewelled birthday cake any more that we do.
Celebrity hair stylist and beauty professional David Lopez combines their flawless makeup skills slay with a dash of "the queer community needs to stay informed in this political climate" which we love to see; Gottmik models a remarkably bedazzled Patrick Church collection; "Moulin Rouge on Broadway" performers Benji Rivera and Brandon Stonestreet did a stellar rendition of an iconic "Parent Trap" scene; and comedian ALOK cleverly queers the news of Meta's new policies about gender.
GayVN Performer of the Year, Rhyheim Shabazz, looks spectacularly stylish and sexy on stage accepting his many, many awards in this silky white ab-revealing power suit. We're thrilled to see his work recognised on this prestigious night, and even more thrilled to see how good he looks accepting the well-deserved praise.
It's been a busy month for Alan Cumming, host of hit reality show "The Traitors" and Scottish queer legend, who posed for Out Magazine in a shoot where recreated the queer iconography that is Tom of Finland, and also posed for Nasty Pig in the jockstraps he says he wears "every single day of [his] life."
In a supreme joint slay of summer sex, queer artists Keiynan Lonsdale, BVT, and Basjia seduce each other on the beach in the hot music video for their song "Mamacita." Everything you're imagining based on slide 2 and 3 of this post should be multiplied; Triple it, and you'll come close to the sensuality and queer horny energy they have for each other in this video.
Chrissy Chlapecka serves otherworldly chic in this photoshoot for Noctis Magazine, wearing a dreamy sheer dress made of glow-in-the-dark stars. The pop icon shared that "This next project is full of some of the best music I have ever made and is a MAJOR vibe switch from the girlie pop era...It's not all pink and bubblegum anymore, it feels like a mature version of who I am." We know Chlapecka's music will go platinum in this household whichever genre it is, so we can't wait to hear it.
Performer and model Robyn Robin was "Feeling myself wearing my new Effenberger Couture bodysuit" and how could they not when such a lush and sensual bodysuit complements their phenomenal polework skills. The belted black thigh-high platform heels make it even more of a slay. This video also celebrates the release of Blazey's new song, "Pornstarr," the absolute banger that the queer dancer is performing to.
Porn performers Matthew "A Taste of Matt" Hanham and Roxas Caelum shared their post-shower "getting ready for the GayVNs" mirror selfie from last year and this year, where they're both significantly more muscular.
Getting a book deal to write about your life so far in your twenties, and then naming the book "I Wrote This Book for Attention"...? A huge slay!! We cannot wait to read "The White Lotus" breakout and out actor Lukas Gage's essays.
Out actor and singer Dove Cameron thanks her followers for their birthday wishes and promises "news soon" with this super slayful, silver futuristic look (complete with steampunk wings, see slide 9) and a three-tiered bejeweled cake decorated with the words "too much." Icon behavior.
"I have always considered myself and those I attract a being of light and that includes all of you that spend time with me on this corner of the internet...I hope to also now add a little bit of clarity to those things that feel so scary and confusing." The face is flawless, impeccable, incredible. But so is the political awareness in hairstylist and beauty pro David Lopez using their platform to keep queer people informed on the "Shi* you should care about while being hot." We love to see it.
Gottmik is dazzling (literally, sparkling like never seen before) posing for this new Patrick Church x bedazzlers Disco Daddy Studio collaborative wonder of a dress. There's a matching jacket that sparkles just as bright, and a whole collection from this collab that is so worth looking at.
We loved every captivating moment of "Moulin Rouge on Broadway" performers Benji Rivera and Brandon Stonestreet using this "Parent Trap" audio to recreate the unforgettably slayful scene when teenage Lindsay Lohan meets her twin self.
Queer comedian ALOK went on The DailyShow and explained to host Jordan Klepper how Meta's new policies are "kinda trans" and "like a gender reveal," sharing why the corporation may actually be too young for us to take their choices seriously. How could we not include that in a round-up of this week's biggest slays?
