Hallow-Kings! Neil Patrick & David’s Iconic Family Tradition

Oh, honey, buckle up, because Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka are the undisputed kings of Halloween family fun!

Every year, this power couple brings out some truly iconic costumes with their adorable twins, Gideon and Harper, proving that Halloween is just as fabulous as it is family-oriented.

The tradition started back in the early days of their relationship and has only grown bigger, better, and bolder each year.

In two thousand eleven, when Gideon and Harper were just toddlers, they dipped their toes into the Halloween spirit with simple costumes, but by the next year, they went full-on Wizard of Oz, with Neil as the Scarecrow, David as the Tin Man, Gideon as the Cowardly Lion, and Harper as Dorothy.

That moment officially cemented their reputation as the royal family of Halloween—no costume theme has ever been safe since!

Over the years, they’ve served us so many memorable looks.

Remember their Alice in Wonderland ensemble in two thousand thirteen?

Harper stole the show as Alice, while Neil, David, and Gideon brought life to the Mad Hatter, White Rabbit, and March Hare.

They’ve explored everything from classic monsters to iconic films, like their Star Wars theme in two thousand fifteen (Neil as Obi-Wan Kenobi, David as Han Solo, Gideon as Luke Skywalker, and Harper as Princess Leia).

And who could forget two thousand eighteen, when they honored Hollywood legends with costumes inspired by old-school horror movies?

Neil and David looked straight out of a classic horror flick, while Gideon and Harper pulled off some terrifyingly good monster looks.

What makes these costumes so beloved isn’t just the attention to detail (though, let’s be honest, the details are stunning), but how much fun they’re clearly having.

Neil has admitted that the planning starts months in advance, and David, being a chef, often gets just as into Halloween treats and spooky decor as he does the costumes.

The Burtka-Harris family doesn’t just dress up—they create a whole Halloween experience every single year.

In recent years, as Gideon and Harper are growing up, it’s become even more of a family affair with the kids playing a bigger role in choosing themes and even helping design their looks.

It’s a testament to the family bond and the love that Neil and David have nurtured—not only with each other but with their children, too.

Plus, we can’t forget the social media rollout! Every Halloween, fans wait on the edge of their seats to see what this iconic foursome has cooked up, and they never disappoint.

Neil and David’s Halloween tradition isn’t just about costumes; it’s about celebrating creativity, togetherness, and a bit of queer magic that turns October thirty-first into the most fabulous family affair.

Here’s hoping they keep dazzling us for many more Halloweens to come!

And for Halloween 2024:

Omar Rudberg has been riding high with the release of his new EP Every Night Fantasy, and let’s just say it’s giving all the post-breakup realness we’ve come to expect from our favorite Young Royals star.

Dropped on October 18, the EP dives deep into Omar’s emotional journey, blending ballads with upbeat tracks that capture the mix of heartache and freedom after love.

Speaking with Attitude, Omar made it clear he’s “so over it” when it comes to addressing his ex—though we all know the EP is sprinkled with his feelings about moving on and embracing life’s next chapter.

For those of us who’ve followed Omar since his boyband days with FO&O, his evolution has been nothing short of magical.

Post-Young Royals, his visibility as a queer icon skyrocketed, especially with his portrayal of Simon, who navigated a complex, tender relationship on screen.

This connection to the LGBTQ+ community is something Omar feels honored by, though he remains refreshingly label-free.

“I’m just myself,” he often says, embracing love in whatever form it takes.

Adding some extra spice to this narrative is the rumored past relationship with Nurbo Bozan.

While Omar doesn’t directly name names, fans have speculated on his romantic entanglements, with Bozan being a notable mention from his Todo De Ti music video days.

But whether or not the rumor mill is true, Omar is clearly focused on his music and his sold-out shows—like his recent performance at Heaven in London on October 21, where he promised it would be sweaty, fun, and a little emotional.

With a European tour ahead, and an open heart when it comes to love, Omar continues to inspire his fans, especially those going through breakups.

His message? You’ll come out stronger, happier, and there are plenty more fish in the sea!

Brandon Flynn & Jordan Tannahill Got Married – In Leather!

You know it’s true love when a pair can rock matching leather outfits on their wedding day, and that’s exactly what seems to have gone down for Brandon Flynn and Jordan Tannahill!

Yep, darlings, it looks like the 13 Reasons Why heartthrob and the celebrated Canadian playwright tied the knot on October 12th.

And it wasn’t just any wedding—it was an edgy, chic affair, packed with some seriously stylish guests and intimate moments in NYC’s East Village.

Now, if you’ve been paying attention (and let’s be honest, you probably have been), whispers about these two have been swirling around since the beginning of the year.

We first wrote about them back in February, but neither had officially confirmed their relationship.

Still, if you’re in the know, you’ve seen the little breadcrumbs they’ve been leaving for us along the way.

It was impossible not to feel the love between them, especially after that birthday post on October 11th. Tannahill, being the romantic he is, shared a photo of him and Flynn against the backdrop of the Manhattan skyline, gushing about wanting to be by Flynn’s side forever.

The very next day, it seems like they took that sentiment to heart and made it official!

What’s even more fabulous? The photos that have surfaced online (bless those fan accounts!) show Flynn and Tannahill embracing the moment in head-turning leather looks.

Flynn’s outfit? A leather kilt paired with sheer detailing—giving everyone a peek at those sculpted thighs.

Tannahill kept it a little more classic (well, as classic as you can get with leather!) in slacks and boots.

Oh, and there were matching white roses involved! These two really brought their A-game to the altar.

St. Mark’s Church-in-the-Bowery, an iconic spot in the East Village, set the scene for the event.

The ceremony was intimate, but the guest list was all about fabulous queer power players.

Julio Torres, the brilliant mind behind Problemista, and Morgan Spector, the smoldering zaddy from The Gilded Age, were spotted amongst the guests, sprinkling in their signature glam.

And because no LGBTQ+ wedding would be complete without some top-tier performance art, Christeene—drag queen extraordinaire and performance artist—delivered what was surely an unforgettable toast.

Oh, and the details didn’t stop there. Friends of the couple shared adorable keepsakes from the wedding, like a custom matchbook reading “Brandon + Jordan, Oct. 12, 2024,” and a cute little hand-drawn map to the venue.

Flynn’s bestie, queer filmmaker Kevin Rios, posted a slideshow from the day that ended with a drool-worthy shot of Flynn showing off a fresh chest tattoo—a heart with “B + J” right in the middle.

Talk about a lasting tribute! Flynn even left a cheeky comment on Rios’ post, pointing out a blurry but affectionate snap of the two.

For now, the newlyweds themselves have kept mum on their nuptials—no official statements from either Flynn or Tannahill, and honestly, who can blame them? They’re probably still basking in their love bubble.

But with all these snapshots, the love in the air is unmistakable, and it feels like we’ve all been invited to the party.

So cheers to Brandon and Jordan!

Whether you’re on the stage, behind the camera, or writing some of the best queer theater out there, these two are clearly one of the most exciting couples on the scene right now.

Here’s hoping we get more glimpses into their happily-ever-after—whether that’s in leather or not!

Hulu’s ‘Rivals’ Serves Up Gay Romance & Naked Tennis Drama

Hulu’s ‘Rivals’ Serves Up Gay Romance & Naked Tennis Drama

Post may include affiliate links, which may earn us a commission

If you’ve been missing the jaw-dropping drama of Succession but secretly thought it needed more bare everything, then Hulu’s new series Rivals has you covered—literally and, well, not so much.

Based on Jilly Cooper’s oh-so-80s novel of the same name, Rivals dives headfirst into a world of sex, scandal, and some seriously risqué tennis matches.

But what really sets this British drama apart is how it’s unapologetically bold, brash, and gloriously gay.

Set against the backdrop of a fictional county in 1986, Rivals brings the frothy, high-stakes world of media moguls Rupert Campbell-Black (played by The Boys’ Alex Hassell) and Lord Tony Baddingham (LGBTQ+ legend David Tennant) to life.

These two are rivals in every sense, but it’s not just their professional battles that make this show addictive. Oh no, honey, this series isn’t shy about serving up secrets—especially in the realm of love.

One of the juiciest (and, let’s be real, most relevant to us) plotlines involves a clandestine gay romance that’s so layered it could double as a rainbow cake.

Enter Charles Fairburn (played by Outlander’s Gary Lamont), the out-and-proud director of programming at Corinium TV, and his secret lover, Gerald Middleton (Hubert Burton, known for The Inheritance).

Gerald, bless his conflicted heart, is an ambitious aide working for the deeply conservative MP Rupert Campbell-Black, making their romance the stuff of epic tension.

While Charles might be comfortably out in both his personal and professional life, Gerald is fighting tooth and nail to keep his sexuality hidden, which—hello, it’s the ‘80s under Margaret Thatcher—adds even more layers to their already complicated relationship.

With the specter of AIDS looming and Thatcher’s policies keeping queer voices at bay, their romance becomes not just passionate but dangerous.

As the series creator Dominic Treadwell-Collins put it, Charles and Gerald’s story isn’t just a subplot; it’s a sweeping love story, reflective of the gay experience during a time when love was often shadowed by fear.

And girl, while the show has its serious moments, it’s not afraid to get campy with some sizzling scenes that’ll have you gasping for air.

Case in point: the now-infamous naked tennis match, featuring Alex Hassell as Rupert Campbell-Black, showing off more than just his forehand.

Talk about balls flying all over the place! When asked about going full frontal for the scene, Hassell coyly admitted to Metro that, yes, that’s all him.

Let’s just say, between Rivals and Cooper Koch’s similar revelations on Netflix’s Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez, the era of prosthetics might just be over. Good for them, bad for our heart rates!

And if you’re wondering whether all this nudity and sex is just for shock value—Dominic Treadwell-Collins assures us it’s not. Every intimate moment drives the story forward, exploring the power dynamics and desires simmering beneath the surface.

Take, for example, the explosive end to episode one, where a montage of nearly the entire cast mid-climax sets the tone to Depeche Mode’s “Just Can’t Get Enough.”

You’ll be glad your neighbors can’t hear your inner monologue during that one.

But seriously, what Rivals does so well—besides giving us all a much-needed visual treat—is bring LGBTQ+ stories into the mainstream without feeling like an afterthought.

Charles and Gerald’s romance might be happening behind closed doors, but the show gives them the same weight, complexity, and messiness as any straight couple on screen.

Treadwell-Collins is right: These kinds of stories, played out on a major platform like Hulu, have the power to shift perspectives and make people care.

So, if you’re looking for a show that gives you everything from juicy, scandalous affairs to gay love stories that’ll have you cheering from the sidelines, Rivals is your new go-to.

And yes, it’ll have you thinking twice the next time you hit the tennis court—fully clothed, of course.

The entire first season of Rivals is now streaming on Hulu. Grab a cocktail, settle in, and prepare for all the drama.

Troye Sivan’s Hot Male Influencer Lap Dance Makes Fans Go Wild

Well, friends, if you weren’t at the Kia Forum on October 16, you might want to sit down for this one!

As part of the ongoing Sweat tour, our pop king Troye Sivan just delivered a moment that had the LA crowd buzzing for days.

It all started innocently enough – another electric night in Los Angeles, the second sold-out show in a row – but things took a spicy turn when Troye invited social media sensation Vinnie Hacker up on stage during his performance of “One of Your Girls.”

And what followed? A lap dance that had the crowd screaming.

We all know Troye can put on a show, but this performance had a little extra heat, with Troye grinding on Vinnie, much to the delight of the audience. Troye’s got an eye for flair, and he certainly picked the right guest star in Vinnie.

With nearly 5 million followers on Instagram and over 15 million on TikTok, this 22-year-old influencer, known for his tattoos and dreamy vibes, has been making hearts race since he started modeling at 15.

It’s no wonder Troye’s been thirsting after him on TikTok for a while now!

(And if you remember that cheeky TikTok where Troye responded to Vinnie’s request for “insane top”… well, let’s just say that energy was very much alive on stage!)

Some fans had been hoping for a repeat of Tuesday night’s stacked guest appearances, where Kesha and Tate McCrae made surprise cameos.

So when Vinnie was the only guest of the night, a few felt slightly underwhelmed. But come on, how could anyone really complain after witnessing that lap dance?

Vinnie, ever the good sport, took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to respond with his signature humor, saying, “Sorry u guys didn’t get a better guest but I tried my hardest,” before adding, “Regardless, it was fun and the crowd was amazing :)”

While some might have been hoping for more celebrity surprises, Vinnie brought his charm and a viral moment that fans are sure to replay for months to come.

After all, when Troye’s on stage, anything can happen, and this time, it was pure fire.

The Sweat tour continues to push boundaries and thrill audiences, blending Troye’s playful, flirty side with killer pop performances.

We love to see our faves come together in such fun, unexpected ways. It’s like they’re all part of the same crew we know and love – and sometimes, it feels like we’re all in it together, celebrating the magic of these queer moments with our community.

Troye’s never been one to shy away from expressing desire and intimacy in his performances, and having someone like Vinnie up there with him?

Well, let’s just say, Troye’s giving us all the queer love story we never knew we needed on stage.

And let’s not forget – this isn’t just about a lap dance. It’s about how openly and joyfully Troye’s crafted a space where queerness, playfulness, and connection shine center stage.

Each night of the Sweat tour feels like a celebration of that. And as Troye and Charli XCX keep bringing the heat, you can bet we’re all here for every steamy, star-studded moment.

Catch the tour if you can – you never know what (or who) you might see next!
