"The 99th annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, one of the largest in the world, included a number of queer icons. The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade took over New York on Thursday (27 November) with giant floats, 11 marching bands and endless stars welcoming in the holiday season. Amongst the glitz and sequins, there were a number of gay stars and moments to celebrate."
"Wicked star Cynthia Erivo shone like the star she is, opening the parade with a powerhouse performance of "Feeling Good". Erivo's performance comes just 10 days after she lost her voice on the Wicked: For Good press tour. She appeared in an all-maroon look, perfectly matching the wintery season. The queer singer also cut the ribbon to begin the parade with The Rockettes clapping behind her."
"Singer Conan Gray captivated the crowd with his exhilarating performance of "Vodka Cranberry" off his fourth studio album, Wishbone. It's another milestone in the 26-year-old's blossoming career. His high-energy performance garnered one of the largest cheers from the crowd lining the streets. The singer wore an all-white Nutcracker-themed look. His sleeveless, button-up vest was completed with feather details on the shoulders."
