As I gaze upon these images and read about the remarkable individuals gracing the Out100 event, my heart swells with admiration for the extraordinary lives they lead. Cynthia Erivo, a powerhouse of talent, embodying strength and resilience, has left an indelible mark on the entertainment world. Her journey reminds me of Dorothy clicking her heels three times – yes, she’s not in Kansas anymore, but she’s defying gravity just like her ‘Wicked’ character!
During her acceptance of the Out100 Icon Award on a Wednesday evening in Los Angeles, Cynthia Erivo held the space, mirroring a moment from her interview with Tracy E. Gilchrist at Out magazine, which she shared with Ariana Grande in a viral discussion about the concept.
In her remarks to the audience, Erivo stated, “As reported by queer media, I’ve been quite active on your social platforms. I don’t want to overwhelm you. Keep in mind, there’s a sequel to ‘Wicked’ coming up, and it’s crucial that we set aside time for that and experience its power.
Later on, Erivo got back together with Gilchrist to catch the lip sync act of drag artist Pattie Gonia, who was singing none other than “Defying Gravity.
At the same gathering, Sheryl Lee Ralph gave a heartfelt speech upon receiving the title of Annual Advocate.
As a passionate cinephile, I firmly stand by the potency of unity. The universe often seeks to separate us, yet it’s our resilience that lies in our capacity to unite, uplift one another, and remind each other that love, at its essence, is indomitable.
At the party, other notable attendees included Erivo’s longtime partner Lena Waithe, Shangela, Margaret Cho, Trixie Mattel, Olympian Tom Daley along with his husband Dustin Lance Black, Zaya Wade accompanied by dad Dwyane Wade and stepmom Gabrielle Union, Travis Shumake who is a professional race car driver and also serves as a major gift officer for the Ali Forney Center, Law Roach and Nina West.
Additionally present on the guest list were Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Marissa Bode, Carl Clemons-Hopkins, Chris Perfetti, Mae Martin, Orville Peck, Harper Steele, Colton Underwood, Kevin McHale, Symone, Gigi Gorgeous, Lisa Ann Walter, and Gigi Goode.
