""I'm so honored to be Advocate of the Year because we are a community and this is a tough time,""
""So I wanna tell you to please become as politically engaged as you can.""
""You know, there are people on this list that have dedicated their lives to advocating and fighting for our community, making real changes in our government, battling disproportionate LGBTQ homelessness rates, and fighting to keep families together while the government and ICE is trying to rip them apart. That being said, I played a bald teenager on TV this year.""
"Also, remember DOGE? Yeah, the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), formerly spearheaded by Elon Musk, has disbanded after just 10 months in operation, leaving millions of lives devastated in its wake."
Out celebrated its Out100 honorees at a weekend party, honoring 100 queer activists, celebrities, and artists recognized for bold contributions. Kathy Griffin was named Advocate of the Year and urged the community to become politically engaged during a difficult time. Miles Heizer highlighted long-term advocates fighting for government change, addressing disproportionate LGBTQ homelessness, and resisting family-separation policies while noting his smaller TV role this year. The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), once led by Elon Musk, disbanded after ten months, an effort described as disruptive to many lives.
