Stuart, can you tell us what made you start The AIDS Memorial? So many people have passed away and been forgotten. Maybe not by their relatives or friends, of course, but AIDS is not a subject that we want to be reminded of. Older people don’t want to relive it. It’s too painful and there […]

Being an Editor-In-Chief of an international queer magazine has its perks. Sometimes it’s free trips to Spain, sometimes it’s back stage passes to Mariah in Vegas and sometimes it’s interviewing one of your favourite artists of all time – Joan Osborne. Back in the mid-90s we were caught up in that Lilith Fair moment and […]

Loverboy’s resolution this year was to stop being a hot mess on the dancefloor and take some actual dance classes with choreography.

Cunts. But it was during this transitional period when an equally young Lady […]

Bladerunner’s Zhora, Six Feet Under’s Margaret Chenowith and even Don’t Tell Mom The Babysitter’s Dead’s Rose – let’s be honest your faves could never. Yes, it’s fair to say Joanna Cassidy has taken on some truly iconic roles. Currently appearing in Bravo’s terrific Odd Mom Out, Loverboy caught up with her to discuss narrowly missing […]
