It bested nine other nominees: Allure, Cosmopolitan, The Hollywood Reporter, Metro Weekly, People, Variety, and Vogue — as well as Out and Plus, which are sibling publications to The Advocate and also owned by equalpride. Out won the award last year, and The Advocate won it the two years prior.
This award and others were presented Thursday night at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles. It was the 36th annual GLAAD Media Awards ceremony.
Michael Urie hosted the event, which honored 2024 Out100 Icon of the Year Cynthia Erivo (Wicked, Harriet, Broadway's The Color Purple) with the Stephen F. Kolzak Award, presented to an LGBTQ+ media professional who has made a significant difference in raising visibility and promoting acceptance of LGBTQ+ people and causes.
