The Canada’s Drag Race alum and most recent All Stars winner talks to IN about her current tour, which characters she’s most excited to play on stage, and what city she’s most excited to perform in when she brings her tour across Canada…
By Bianca Guzzo
We first met Jimbo when she brought her larger-than-life drag to the very first season of Canada’s Drag Race in 2020. She came in fourth place but proved to be a fan favourite. She made a guest appearance in the show’s second and third seasons before competing on RuPaul’s Drag Race: UK vs. the World ..read more

Perfume notes that bridge the gender divide…
By Adriana Ermter
Imagine a world where scent doesn’t exist…where one lets other people, and their body odour, live and let live. Kind of puts a whole new perspective on public transit, waiting in line at the grocery store and steamy humid nights at the local pub, doesn’t it? Thankfully, our bathrooms are a hygiene haven, loaded with soap, deodorant and, perhaps most importantly, a smattering of our favourite fragrances.
Yet, how many of these little bottles containing scented elixirs bear the descriptor ‘men’ or ‘women’? More importantly, how ..read more

The final three lip sync for their lives one last time and a new queen ascends to the throne…
Well, we’ve finally made it to the end. This season has been one of the most exciting seasons to watch, and we met so many new queens that will be dazzling stages and our phone screens for years. Our top three have made it through sewing challenges, acting challenges, Snatch Game, the makeover challenge, and crash courses in marketing to make it here. At the end of this week’s episode Plane Jane, Nymhpia Wind, or Sapphira Cristal will be named America’s Next Drag Superstar. We’ll also get to see all o ..read more

After six years, the award-winning comedian is back on the road for her My Life On The PTSD-List tour, which includes stops across Canada…
By Christopher Turner
It’s safe to say that Kathy Griffin has had a pretty rough few years. In 2017, she famously became public enemy #1 when she posed with a plastic Donald Trump mask with ketchup on it, something that led to the US government investigating her as a terrorist for conspiracy to assassinate the president, which left her on the no-fly list and unable to work. CNN very publicly fired her from her regular New Year’s Eve gig with Ander ..read more

Written by Matthew Lopez, the messy play about an absence and how to fill it, has completely captured the imagination of gay audiences…
By Paul Gallant
It doesn’t sound like something with great commercial prospects: a bum-numbing two-part play about gay men, their romantic and sexual relationships, their place in American society (mostly New York society), the AIDS crisis, the anguish of ancestral lineage and what villainy looks like.
Yet soon after Tony Kushner’s Angels in America: A Gay Fantasia on National Themes premiered in San Francisco in 1991, it became an eight-hour ph ..read more

Reunited, and it feels so good. All of the eliminated queens return to the main stage to lip sync for their chance to win a cash prize of $50,000…
Last week we said goodbye to Q after a writing and marketing challenge that saw the top four authoring their very own memoirs and promoting it on a podcast. Q’s elimination ahead of the finale means that this season there would be a top three heading to the last episode. Our final three queens for season 16 are officially Sapphira Cristál, Plane Jane, and Nymphia Wind, but this week they’ll get to take a well-deserved break ahead of the finale. This ..read more

Take your love of travel and combine it with a wellness goal – these five types of personal improvement getaways will have you coming home a better you…
By Karen Kwan
One of the biggest trends in travel is the shift towards bettering your personal well-being, both mental and physical, while on your vacation. Travel experts trace the popularity of this type of travel to the pandemic; our health became a first concern in the past few years and we continue to make self-care habits and longevity a non-negotiable. This is in contrast to pre-pandemic times, when caring for your health often got ..read more

Here are five community resources from the IN Directory that can offer help to 2SLGBTQI+ communities…
By Brennen Neufeld
While there are organizations across the country that provide vital support for people experiencing intimate partner violence (IPV), finding services that welcome queer folks can be challenging. Support services can be vague about whether they’re inclusive of queer folks, or even discriminatory about who can safely access their services.
This can make finding much-needed support more difficult than it should be. Thankfully, more and more organizations are expanding the ..read more

Learn how to spot the signs – and what to do if you believe someone you know may be experiencing intimate partner violence…
By Jumol Royes
It’s time we had a real conversation about intimate partner violence in 2SLGBTQI+ communities.
I’ll admit I hadn’t given the issue much thought until I received a phone call one day from a friend asking for my help.
She needed advice on how to support a 2SLGBTQI+ community member. The individual identified as trans, and my friend was looking to connect them with local 2SLGBTQI+ community resources geared towards people experiencing intimate partner vi ..read more

Drifter, Pat Rocco’s forgotten ’70s queer drama has resurfaced in Kino Lorber’s DVD/Blu-ray release of a restored print…
By David-Elijah Nahmod
Pat Rocco (1934-2018) was ahead of his time. A gay activist during the days and years before Stonewall, Rocco had the courage to make queer themed films before it was safe to do so. Around 1969 he produced and directed Drifter, a feature length drama about a bisexual hustler. Unable to secure a distribution deal for the film, Drifter languished on the shelf for several years, until 1974 when it was briefly screened at a gay porn theater in Los Angeles ..read more
