Dylan Jones chatted to band member Lauren about exploring London, chilling with Snoop Dogg, and being camp on red carpets. Fifth Harmony are one of our ultimate faves! In the last few months they’ve stormed the charts, racked up hundreds of millions of views on Youtube, and brought a girlband mentality to the US, which can only be a good thing. Their...

Dylan Jones’ roundup of new music for people who listens to music!   Iggy Azalea Versus Azealia Banks. I know. Not again. I’m done with both of them to be honest. But it’s my duty to write about these things. I’m a cultural commentator. I tried to be a waiter for a bit but I kept getting fired, so I must...

Bleach your hair, buy ten pairs of mirrored Primark aviators and shove a stick of rock up your arse, because it’s time for…BRIGHTON PRIDE. Well, it’s not quite time yet. It’s not until August. Which is still quite a while away. We might have been turned into a Pret by August.    BUT, the fact that they’re already getting things underway...

Those miscreants at Dirty Diana are putting on their very own fetish ball at Electrowerkz this weekend! Judging by their promo pictures, it’s going to be absolutely FILTHY. It’s been three years since Diana kicked off her shoes and threw her tiara in the toilet, so why not celebrate with a massive all-out fetish fantasy?   There’ll be DJ sets from...

Will McDowell is a filmmaker, short shorts wearer and Rihanna fan living in Berlin. Speaking of shorts, short films are what he specializes in, and his beguiling, intense work has already garnered him attention on both sides of the English Channel.  He started off life as an innocent student, living in a townhouse in Camden and going to house parties...

Shockingly, almost a quarter of homeless people are LGBT. They represent a portion of the population, and a part of our community, who have been failed by the government and by society. It’s interesting, and quite telling, to consider the reasons behind this. It hints at a darker undertone to treatment of LGBT people in our allegedly liberal, free-thinking...

Dylan Jones lays out the basics of taking PEP, and recounts his own experiences on it.   Now, I know I’m not the first gay to write about PEP, by any stretch of the imagination. It’s one of the issues-du-jour in the gay media at the moment, like chemsex, or femme-shaming, or Tom Daley’s arse. The reason I’ve chosen to write about...

Once again, competition season is upon us. Over the coming months a raft of new acts will perform and quite possibly take to the stage for the very first time in Drag Idol, Pride’s Got Talent, Lipsync 1000 and Man Up. But what is the best advice to give to these hopeful starlets? This week Jason Reid asked the performers...

Above The Stag have got an exciting new European premiere coming up on 5th April, in the form of a challenging and emotional new production.    Based on real life events, Haram Iran is a coming-of-age drama focusing on two boys gorwing up as Arab-Iranians. As well as struggling with a volatile sociopolitical milieu, Ayaz and Mahmoud face further challenges when...

With everything going on online nowadays, it’s refreshing to experience something that really no online experience can replicate. The other week I went to the opening of the relocated Dover Street Market now set in the Haymarket. It’s bigger and better than ever, making shopping akin to visiting an art gallery. In fact even if you can’t afford to actually...
