Olympian Gus Kenworthy’s Love Tribute to Aussie Boyfriend

Grab your surfboards, my lovelies, because Gus Kenworthy is riding a massive wave of love all across Sydney—and he’s taking us along for the ride!

The Olympic freestyle skier just dropped a swoon-worthy Instagram post jam-packed with beachy adventures, adorable family time, and a dash of Aussie cosplay.

Let’s just say this is one “Down Under” trip we’d all gladly sign up for.

The main highlight? Gus is giving us a front-row seat to his sweet—and often shirtless—bond with Aussie boyfriend Andrew Rigby.

From posing atop the Sydney Harbour Bridge in harnesses (adrenaline junkies, anyone?) to lazing around the sand for a smooch-worthy beach day, these two are basically the definition of “couple goals.”

And because Kenworthy is never one to do anything halfheartedly, he even donned a blond mullet wig—yep, a mullet—for a night out alongside Andrew, serving us some fabulous Aussie realness.

But it’s not all pumping iron and partying until dawn.

Gus also shared a sunny group shot, featuring a straight couple and their two little cuties, proving the more the merrier in this tight-knit Sydney squad.

Seeing Kenworthy shift from extreme sports to kid-friendly hangs? Chef’s kiss.

It’s downright heartwarming watching him and Andrew soak up big family vibes in between their own romantic escapades.

And here’s the kicker—this glorious Aussie holiday arrives on the heels of Gus’s newly announced (and oh-so-cheeky) coffee table book club.

If the philanthropic side of Kenworthy’s Instagram escapades wasn’t enough to entice you, wait until you learn that some lucky subscribers get an exclusive, ahem, “slutty” Polaroid of the athlete.

Ten-out-of-ten for combining a love of art, charitable giving, and a bit of sassy skin for a cause!

So there you have it: Gus Kenworthy’s ultimate love tribute to his homegrown Aussie beau.

Between the sky-high zip-lining shots, beach kisses, and mullet mania, it’s clear that Kenworthy is smitten—and we’re here for every last digital postcard.

If you need us, we’ll be refreshing his feed, daydreaming of an Aussie getaway with our own Olympic bae.

After all, who can resist a classic boy-meets-boy, boy-brings-boy-home story that’s equal parts heart, humor, and heat?

Aussie, Aussie, Aussie—indeed!

‘9-1-1’ Teases Big Emotions for Bisexual Buck & Eddie Storyline

‘9-1-1’ Teases Big Emotions for Bisexual Buck & Eddie Storyline

Buckle up, my fellow first-responder fans, because ABC’s 9-1-1 is about to crank the emotional tension up to an 11—especially for Evan “Buck” Buckley.

In a recent reveal, showrunner Tim Minear teased that Buck will be “spinning like a top” once new episodes drop, and star Oliver Stark confirmed he was equally surprised by just how deeply the show plans to examine Buck’s complicated feelings for best friend (and firefighting partner-in-crime) Eddie Diaz.

As fans will recall, Season 7 first hinted that Buck’s devotion to Eddie wasn’t your run-of-the-mill bromance—especially when Eddie briefly considered moving to Texas to be closer to his son.

The prospect of losing his buddy-in-arms left Buck so rattled he might as well have been whacked with a baseball bat.

This season, the emotional stakes soar even higher, with 9-1-1 promising to tackle Buck’s responses in ways “more obvious” than ever before.

And while jealousy may not be the focus, the deep (and possibly deeper-than-friendship) bond between Buck and Eddie is definitely on the table.

According to Stark, the upcoming episodes put everyone at the firehouse under pressure, revealing new facets of the relationships we thought we already knew.

And for a show that typically highlights tight-knit teamwork, exploring potential fault lines—and yes, maybe some romantic tension—could reveal new layers to both Buck and Eddie.

After all, one of 9-1-1’s biggest draws is how it masterfully balances explosive emergencies with heartfelt family and friendship drama.

What’s more, Stark hinted that the storyline’s intensity caught even him off guard, raising questions about how far the series might go in unpacking Buck’s swirling emotions.

Could heartbreak lie on the horizon—or might fans finally see a more open conversation between Buck and Eddie?

One thing’s for certain: There’s no shortage of tension brewing at Firehouse 118.

Tune in when 9-1-1 returns March 6 for the second half of Season 8.

Between an influx of brand-new rescues and the twisty personal stories that have made the show such a hit, Buck’s inner turmoil over Eddie’s next steps is sure to be the hot topic.

Whether you’re rooting for them as best buds or hoping to see them lean a little closer, the next few episodes promise to deliver plenty of emotional fireworks—and maybe even a deeper look at that infamous Buddie bond.

You might want to keep an extinguisher handy, because fans are definitely fired up for what’s next!

Brandon Flynn Steams The Screen in Gay Horror ‘The Parenting’

Brandon Flynn Steams The Screen in Gay Horror ‘The Parenting’

Brandon Flynn has come a long way since riding the emotional roller coaster of 13 Reasons Why.

With “The Parenting,” the 31-year-old actor dives headfirst into comedic horror, proving that he’s more than just a teen drama alum—he’s ready to flex his funny bone (and handle a few ghosts) in a film that’s half supernatural romp, half meet-the-parents fiasco.

For anyone who adored Flynn’s warm, relatable presence on TV, his new role is like an exhilarating next chapter.

This time, he’s one half of a queer couple visiting a quaint country house with their parents in tow—hoping to share some good wine, scenic views, and maybe a coming-out or two.

But as Flynn’s character soon finds out, dealing with an ancient, mischief-making spirit is far more terrifying than introducing Mom to your fiancé.

What’s remarkable here isn’t just the playful spooks and family feuds; it’s watching Flynn effortlessly morph into a horror-comedy lead.

While we’ve seen him navigate heartbreak and teenage angst in previous roles, The Parenting taps into a lighter, almost whimsical energy.

Flynn’s charm helps anchor the film’s blend of goofy humor and genuine scares, as he scrambles to protect his beau (Nik Dodani) from everything from skeptical dads to sinister poltergeists.

Out and proud director Craig Johnson (Special) crafted a world where demons aren’t the only forces that need vanquishing—so do old-school ideas about relationships.

As a real-life member of the LGBTQ+ community, Flynn brings an authenticity to the screen that makes each haunted turn feel grounded in genuine heart and humor.

Even when the story takes a comedic spin—like a possessed parent floating around the dining room—Flynn’s character remains an oasis of empathy, determined to hold the family together.

The result? A fresh way to see Flynn shine: equal parts protective partner, reluctant ghostbuster, and comedic MVP.

Surrounded by an ensemble of Hollywood heavy-hitters (like Lisa Kudrow and Brian Cox), he holds his own with wit and warmth.

The final product is a laugh-out-loud ghost story that nods to the anxieties of any wedding-planning couple—doubly so if one of them might become demonically possessed.

So if you’ve been craving a post–teen drama fix of Brandon Flynn—and if your ideal date night flick involves both snickers and shrieks—The Parenting might be your perfect combination.

Catch it on Max starting March 13, and get ready to watch one spirited meet-the-parents weekend turn into a delightfully twisted affair.

Because if there’s anything scarier than meeting your in-laws for the first time, it’s dealing with them when they’re possessed by a 400-year-old ghost.

Bon voyage, brave souls!

‘Night Stage’ Shines a Light on Brazil’s Steamy Queer Underbelly

Break out your popcorn and pour yourself something cold, because a sizzling new Brazilian thriller is about to leave audiences positively breathless.

“Night Stage”—the latest offering from Teddy Award–winning duo Filipe Matzembacher and Marcio Reolon—has landed distribution deals across North America, the U.K., and Ireland.

So, darlings, prepare to be seduced by a tale that’s equal parts risqué, political, and undeniably queer.

When an ambitious actor crosses paths with a rising politician, you might expect the usual hush-hush affair.

But in “Night Stage,” these two are taking their secret romance out of the shadows and into some very public spaces—literally.

Think vibrant city streets, darkened corridors, and the kind of risky, hot-and-heavy moments that push not only boundaries, but also the characters’ very futures.

In a world where image is everything, how far will they go to satisfy their thrill-seeking appetites without crashing and burning?

Matzembacher and Reolon know a thing or two about capturing queer intimacy onscreen; their previous film “Hard Paint” set the festival circuit ablaze, ultimately earning the 2018 Teddy Award for Best Queer Film in Berlin.

This time around, they’re swapping neon body paints for the neon nights of urban Brazil—shining a tantalizing spotlight on public perception, fetish, and the precarious tightrope walk between personal desire and the pursuit of fame.

It’s sexy, dangerous, and downright audacious.

Critics are already buzzing that “Night Stage” feels like a throwback to the ‘80s erotic thrillers we couldn’t resist, but with a distinctly modern, queer spin.

It’s dripping with voyeurism, tension, and that sense of unstoppable lust that can make—or break—a political career and an acting dream.

In short, it’s not for the faint of heart, but if you’re craving a steamy rollercoaster of passion and power plays, you’ve come to the right midnight screening.

This is the duo’s third time premiering at the Berlinale, so expect the same fearless storytelling we’ve come to adore—only bolder.

With mesmerizing leads Gabriel Faryas, Henrique Barreira, and Cirillo Luna, “Night Stage” is definitely ready to command the spotlight in theaters soon.

As for how it’ll fare with mainstream audiences? Well, honey, let’s just say the “public displays of affection” in this flick make your typical weekend brunch kisses look like child’s play!

For those itching to watch, distribution deals are all locked in, meaning you won’t need to snag a passport to Brazil.

Dark Star Pictures and Uncork’d Entertainment will launch it stateside, Variety reports, while Peccadillo Pictures gives you front-row seats to the U.K. and Irish debut.

So, whether you’re in Chicago, London, or Dublin, get ready: This scandalous cinematic fling is about to waltz onto a big screen near you.

In the meantime, you can always practice your best “surprised gasp” and search for that perfect date who’s game for a sultry, boundary-pushing night at the movies.

Something tells us you’ll be glued to your seat—both from the tension and the raw, hypnotic visuals.

After all, the allure of “Night Stage” is in the dangerous dance between what’s kept hidden and what’s laid bare… and we’re just dying to see it shine in all its late-night glory.

Saddle Up for Jacob Elordi’s Sizzling Queer Romance ‘On Swift Horses’

Saddle Up for Jacob Elordi’s Sizzling Queer Romance ‘On Swift Horses’

Pull on your vintage cowboy boots and grab your best wide-brimmed hat, darlin’, because On Swift Horses is galloping into theaters—and it’s turning up the heat in all the right queer ways.

This gorgeous period piece, helmed by the same director who delivered the steamy miniseries Fellow Travelers, puts a fresh spin on 1950s repression, clandestine affairs, and the longing to love freely at a time when simply existing as LGBTQ+ could land you in hot water.

A High-Stakes Love Story

Based on Shannon Pufahl’s 2019 novel, On Swift Horses trots us into the life of Julius (played by Euphoria heartthrob Jacob Elordi).

He’s an aimless Korean War vet hitchhiking west to bunk with his brother Lee (Will Poulter) and soon-to-be sister-in-law Muriel (Daisy Edgar-Jones).

You’d think that setup alone would create enough drama, but oh no—this is just the start of a wild, sexy adventure.

Once Julius splits for Las Vegas in search of a job (and a forbidden object of his affection), he meets colleague Henry, portrayed by Babylon star Diego Calva.

Sparks fly, bets get placed, and suddenly these two are riding off into a different kind of sunset: clandestine romance, smoky motel rooms, and whispered confessions that set the screen ablaze.

They’re both hustling to survive, but they’re also craving a life where their love can flourish in the open.

Where Queer Desire Can’t Be Tamed

Think of it as a ‘50s-era swirl of hidden letters and scorching glances, with each stolen moment of intimacy daring to crack the period’s buttoned-up facade.

What Fellow Travelers did for small-screen queer storytelling, On Swift Horses aims to do on the big screen—exploring the ways same-sex lovers found each other in a world that forced them to stay hush-hush.

We’re talking layered characters who yearn for an authentic life beyond the social mores.

And rumor has it these romances don’t just simmer—they boil over.

Diego Calva teased there’d be some “pretty hot scenes” with Jacob Elordi, which has the internet’s LGBTQ+ corner all riled up.

If your idea of a cinematic feast includes two men sneaking kisses in cheap motel rooms and living on the edge, well, sign us up.

Everyone’s Getting In On the Action

Not to be outdone, Muriel has her own exploration going on back in San Diego, discovering new freedoms (and possibly new loves) that go beyond the confines of wifely duties.

The entire movie seems to be a bold statement on how none of these characters fit into the 1950s box society tries to shove them into.

Each one is quietly (or not-so-quietly) raging against the era’s rigid expectations, seeking out connection wherever they can find it.

Hype from the Film Festival Circuit

On Swift Horses first kicked up dust at the Toronto International Film Festival and later made a surprise splash at Palm Springs, leaving audiences breathless—and perhaps a little flustered.

Word on the street is that everyone’s hooking up with everyone, making for a scandalous ride you can’t peel your eyes from.

With Sony Pictures Classics picking it up for U.S. release (and a stop at SXSW next), the countdown is on.

Giddy Up, Queer Cinema Fans!

If you loved the slow-burn tension of Brokeback Mountain or the swirling, hush-hush vibes of Carol, then On Swift Horses might just be your new obsession.

It merges forbidden romance and emotional stakes, saddling it all with a stylishly retro flair.

But don’t worry, there’s no shortage of edge-of-your-seat moments—both in the casino and in the bedroom.

So dust off those poker chips and get ready to see Jacob Elordi and Diego Calva steam up the screen in a story that dares to ask: How far would you gamble for a love you might never be allowed to show?

Here’s hoping these swift horses gallop straight into our hearts—and maybe even rewrite a little bit of Hollywood’s formula for queer storytelling along the way.

Because if there’s one thing we can’t resist, it’s a lush period drama where hearts and bodies collide under the hush of night. Yee-haw, sweetiesr!
