Brandon Flynn, known for his breakout role in the popular TV series โ13 Reasons Why,โ has recently been linked romantically with Jordan Tannahill, a celebrated Canadian playwright, director, and author.
The duoโs relationship, while not officially confirmed, is hinted at through intimate photographs on Tannahillโs Instagram, many of which Flynn has taken.
The latest images was released on Flynnโs birthday October 11, while others trace back to April last year, showcasing moments of closeness and affection between the two, although Flynnโs social media remains void of such personal content.
Flynnโs acting career has been marked by significant roles that often explore complex emotional landscapes, resonating with many in the LGBTQ+ community. His portrayal of LGBTQ+ characters has contributed to vital conversations around representation and acceptance in mainstream media.
Jordan Tannahill, on the other hand, is a powerhouse in the literary and theatrical worlds.
His works, such as โThe Listeners,โ which was shortlisted for the 2021 Giller Prize, delve into themes of social media, isolation, and environmental degradation, reflecting a keen awareness of contemporary issues.
Tannahillโs dedication to exploring nuanced narratives is also evident in his political activism, notably his protest against Bruneiโs draconian laws on homosexuality and his artistic engagement with LGBTQ+ rights and visibility.
Their relationship, set against the backdrop of their artistic and advocacy efforts, paints a picture of two individuals deeply engaged with the worlds of art, culture, and social justice.
As Flynn and Tannahill navigate their personal and professional lives, their bond offers a glimpse into the interplay between creativity, love, and the ongoing fight for LGBTQ+ rights.

The best part? Their thoughtfully planned itinerary was brought to life with a โBachbill,โ a playbill-inspired keepsake nodding to Tommyโs Broadway roots.
Joey managed to pull off a surprise fashion show with friends dressed as characters from Tommyโs favorite movies, which left Tommy in happy tears.
Among the party crew were some of Tommyโs Big Brother 21 pals, including Holly Allen and Analyse Talavera, who have remained close since their days in the Big Brother house.

Last night at the glittering Attitude Awards in London, Sir Elton John lit up the room as he collected the prestigious โlegacy gong,โ which, in true Elton fashion, sparked a cheeky bit of controversy.
The superstar, whoโs been a fierce advocate for LGBTQ+ rights for decades, took the stage to receive the award and couldnโt resist tossing a playful jab at tech tycoon Elon Musk, calling him an โa***hole.โ
Well, Elton never has been one to bite his tongue!
This remark comes just after Muskโs latest spiral of wild political and social rants, which have left many, including Elton, raising an eyebrow.
With Musk recently commenting that heโs โf**kedโ if Donald Trump doesnโt win the U.S. presidential election, and his repeated tirades about the so-called โwoke mind virus,โ heโs clearly been pushing buttons across the board.
Elonโs bizarre outbursts have left many people โ especially in the LGBTQ+ community โ frustrated, particularly when he has repeatedly criticized his estranged trans daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, in public.

But as far as Eltonโs acceptance speech goes, it wasnโt all shade. Before delivering that little zinger, he was handed the award by none other than Ed Sheeran, a good friend and collaborator of his.
The โlegacy gong,โ shaped like a striking โA,โ had only ever been awarded once before โ to the late Princess Diana, and received on her behalf by Prince Harry.
So, naturally, Elton took a playful poke at the mysterious letterโs symbolism, joking, โIs this it? Is this the award? What does โAโ stand for? A***hole comes to mind. But letโs not talk about Elon Musk tonight โ letโs have a good time.โ
Instagram: @eltonjohn
Elton was, as always, full of love and gratitude, but not just for the award.
He took a moment to acknowledge the joy he feels in his life as a gay man, expressing heartfelt thanks to his husband, David Furnish, and their two sons, Zachary and Elijah.
Eltonโs sentiment was raw and emotional, saying, โI love my husband, my children. I have benefits as a gay man I never thought Iโd be able to have.โ
In classic Elton fashion, though, he kept it real, reminding everyone that the fight for equality isnโt over.
โWeโve come a long way, and weโre very lucky to live in a country that gives us the rights we have. But there are still people who donโt have those rights, and I intend to fight for those rights until the day I die.โ
Eltonโs words were met with resounding applause, echoing the spirit of the night, where LGBTQ+ champions were celebrated.
Instagram: @eltonjohn
Other honorees included the incredible Jessica Gunning, who scooped up the Culture Award for her performance in Baby Reindeer, and Esther Ghey, who accepted the Inspiration Award on behalf of her late transgender daughter Brianna, whose tragic death brought to light ongoing violence against trans individuals.
Now, letโs be honest. Eltonโs little Musk moment was a highlight, but the night belonged to something far bigger than a quip at a billionaireโs expense.
It was a celebration of how far weโve come as a community, with Elton as a proud father, husband, and advocate, leading the charge. His fierce commitment to fighting for LGBTQ+ rights, mixed with his typical charm and sass, made it a night to remember.
So, whatโs next for Sir Elton? Well, besides taking cheeky swipes at billionaires and basking in well-deserved adulation, heโs still fresh off his global farewell tour and, according to sources, recovering well from a recent severe eye infection.
But if we know Elton, heโll continue to stand tall, strutting that fabulous path heโs been paving for decades โ all while making sure the LGBTQ+ family keeps moving forward, a little sassier, and a lot stronger.
Lance Bass and Michael Turchin just took โdoting dadsโ to another level with their twinsโ third birthday celebration!
The party, held on October 8, 2024, was an *NSYNC-inspired bash for their adorable kids, Violet and Alexander.
And honestly, can you think of anything cuter? The couple leaned into the nostalgia hard with a cheeky sign reading, โItโs Gonna Be Threeโโa nod to *NSYNCโs hit Itโs Gonna Be Me (you know, the one you still canโt get out of your head).
The family photos Bass shared on Instagram show the whole gang beaming in front of personalized cakesโteal for Violet, red for Alexander, both designed to match their favorite Tile Town playsets. And you can bet there was frosting everywhere!
Instagram: @lancebass
Between the cakes and those Tile Town setups from Moose Toys, itโs safe to say the twins had the time of their lives.
Lance, whoโs no stranger to celebrating milestones in fabulous fashion, couldnโt help but thank Moose Toys in his caption for keeping the fun going, playfully writing, โItโs gonna be THRAYYY!โ
Honestly, Lance, weโre with youโthis party looked like it was a blast.
But if you think Bass and Turchin just play the party planner card, think again! Earlier this year, Lance shared a hilarious video of his daughter Violet showing off her love for his bandmate JC Chasez.
Yes, you read that right. Not only do the twins have impeccable taste in boy bands, but Violet has even mastered the iconic โBye Bye Byeโ hand move.
Instagram: @lancebass
So, basically, *NSYNC fandom is a family tradition at this point.
As for Lance and Michael? These two have been together for a decade, married for ten years, and their journey as parents just keeps getting sweeter.
The twins, born via surrogate in 2021, are clearly the light of their lives.
Instagram: @lancebass
Lance has often shared how surreal and rewarding it is to see them grow into โlittle peopleโ who can communicate and, of course, occasionally sass their parents.
It seems like yesterday they were, as Lance says, โlittle blobsโ on the couch.
Looking ahead, Lance has hinted at a bit of โbaby fever,โ suggesting the idea of expanding their family.
But for now, with two toddlers keeping them on their toes (and talking back!), the Turchin-Bass household seems to be filled with plenty of love, laughter, and just the right amount of chaos!
Drew Starkey has been making waves with his performance in Queer, and trust me, itโs not just the nerves talking!
When Outer Banksโ scheming Rafe Cameron meets Luca Guadagnino and Daniel Craig, things get spicy in all the best ways.
At the New York Film Festival premiere, Drew openly shared how nervous he was to step into this complex roleโespecially playing opposite Craig, who portrays William Lee, Queer author William Burroughsโ alter-ego.
Imagine walking into a scene with James Bond himself, and Craig turning to you with that cool British charm, ready to deliver one of Burroughsโ most intense characters.
But instead of feeling overwhelmed, Drew called the experience โincredible,โ pointing out how giving Craig was as a partnerโboth on-screen and behind the scenes.
“He’s such a dream to work with. Such an amazing artist and he was the most giving actor I’ve ever worked with,” he said. “I mean, I couldn’t have asked for a better partner.”
Can you imagine Daniel Craig, legend that he is, saying, โI love him to death. Heโs the bestโ?
Now, Luca Guadagnino (Call Me by Your Name) always has a way of pushing the boundaries of love, obsession, and everything queer in between.
For Drew, this role marks a serious shift in his career, trading in Netflix drama for a tantalizing and heady post-war Mexican city backdrop.
He and his costar Omar Apollo were asked by TIME Magazine about appearing fully nude on screen. While Omar would not confirm nor deny whether he opted to film his full frontal scenes without any prosthetic help, Drew said he chose not to be fully nude on screen.
Queer is more than just a love story; itโs about connection, disconnection, and the bittersweet messiness of human desire.
And letโs not forget the heartwarming detail: Drewโs support system didnโt just come from his Queer cast.
His Outer Banks co-stars were still his go-to squad for emotional advice, further proving that queer storytelling thrives with the right people backing you up!
Drew said it himselfโtheyโre all โstumbling through this world together.โ
Queer is bound to be one of those films that lingers in the heart of the LGBTQ+ community, whether youโre a Burroughs fan or just here for that Drew-Daniel on-screen chemistry.
Get ready for a dream team duo that might just redefine what on-screen obsession looks like.
