The German singer-songwriter recently performed at the 2025 World Pride Music Festival alongside Troye Sivan, Jennifer Lopez, Reneé Rapp and more, and is the first out trans woman to win a Grammy for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance with Sam Smith. The 'Unholy' singer is also taking the stage at the SoSF Pride Festival, Nashville Pride Friday Concert, and more throughout June and July. But she's also taking time to turn on the magic as the muse of Awe's latest Pride collection, with the 'Queen of Fairies' being described as one who 'lives beyond the rules — an untamed force who bends nature to her will.'

Offering a luxe take on the 'fairycore' aesthetic trend you've probably seen fill countless Pinterest boards, Awe Inspired and Petras' Queen of the Fairies collection aims to reclaim the slur 'fairy,' transforming it into an emblem of enchantment, pride, and femme self-expression. Launching in three separate drops throughout the month of June, the jewelry is all crafted in 14K gold vermeil and sterling silver, and embraces the 'surreal elegance and escapism' of fantastical fairy iconography while keeping it grounded in a good cause.
The first drop is available to shop now on AweInspired.com, while 'Secret Forest' will be shoppable on June 17, and the third and final drop, 'Bug Brooches,' goes live on June 24. From sculptural rings and intricate earrings to layered charms, delicate brooches, and a standout fairy nameplate necklace, the collection is meant to be equal parts whimsical and elevated. You'll find twisted botanical motifs, winged silhouettes, and delicate insect-inspired details — think dragonflies, beetles, and enchanted flora.

Prices range from $150–$1,240, and as part of the launch, the Queen herself (Petras) curated three of her favorite necklace stacks (two are currently in-stock online, while the final 'Secret Forest' set will be released with the June 17 drop). In celebration of Pride, $10 will be donated with the purchase of select pieces (labeled 'GLSEN Gives Back') to GLSEN, an organization working to ensure safe, inclusive schools for LGBTQ+ youth nationwide by supporting educators and advocating for policy change in school. This contribution supports critical resources and education as political attacks and funding cuts continue to intensify nationwide.
With this campaign, Awe Inspired has added a new queer icon to its Goddess Jewelry Collection. Past Pride campaigns featured Indya Moore as Marsha P. Johnson and Zane Phillips as Achilles, with each launch supporting GLSEN's mission.

San Francisco's Dyke March returns with new organizers after 6-year hiatus
The Dyke March was back in San Francisco and after a six-year hiatus, new organizers came together to put on the event. "The energy is great," said Morgan Campbell, who attended the event. Campbell and Vaanity Tuscegli are part of the queer community and were spending the day at Dolores Park for Pride. They were just planning on observing the march, but after watching the beginning, they knew they had to join in. "I think it's a big deal with where the state of the world is," said Tuscegli. "I think it's good to celebrate what we do have and where we are with it and claim it back while we have the chance." Campbell says growing up queer, the term "Dyke" was used as an insult, but events like this change the narrative. "That's about reclamation, too," Campbell explained. "We all got called that in school, now it's just so nice to see it used positively." San Francisco Dyke March Interim Project Director M Rocket said the mission of the march is to bring the community together, to raise awareness, and create visibility. "It's essential for Dyke Visibility to be out and proud and to show our force and our activism and our art and our culture," Rocket said. This year, there was also a focus on disability access. Rocket said she's grateful to be a part of bringing the march back for its 33rd time after a six-year hiatus. But it took a lot of work, and they did it in a different way. The march organizers did not focus on grant funding, but instead on donations from over 300 individuals. "We've had a ton of support from the city and from individuals who have all donated to our crowdfunding campaign to be able to get this work done this year and come back," said Rocket. There was a rally before the march with entertainment and speeches from members of the queer community. Tuscegli said at a time like this, when LGBTQ rights are being threatened nationally, spaces like this one are needed. "I think any little bit of activism makes a difference," Tuscegli said. "It really does. I think we're bringing justice back to our community for the things we've had taken from ourselves."

‘Let's Get Sexy': Cardi B Hits LadyLand Stage After Surprise Guest Scarlet Envy Brings the Drama
While the wider worlds of pop and hip-hop may not have realized it when it was announced earlier this week, the name of Cardi B's long awaited sophomore album, Am I the Drama?, is suspiciously close to a viral quote from Scarlet Envy's time on RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars season six. But for the predominantly (if not close to exclusively) LGBTQ revelers at Brooklyn's annual LadyLand Festival, 'am I the drama?' is queer meme canon. So when Scarlet Envy emerged onstage at 1:35 a.m. on Friday night (technically Saturday morning, but who's counting) to introduce Cardi's headlining set, absolutely everyone knew why she was there. More from Billboard How LadyLand, the Scrappy Festival That Could, Is Shaping Queer Culture & Live Music In NYC Olivia Rodrigo & Ed Sheeran Perform 'The A Team' in Surprise London Duet Rihanna & A$AP Rocky Walk the Blue Carpet at 'Smurfs' Movie Premiere in Brussels 'Happy Pride, New York City!' Scarlet shouted, prowling the stage in a shimmering red outfit and gigantic wig. 'I'm here every single year — it's good to be on the stage this year, bitch. My name is Scarlet Envy: I'm the drama,' she said to cheers and finger snaps. 'I'm blessed to introduce this performer to you. She's an icon, she a legend and she's a hometown hero.' 'Who's tucking today?' Cardi B yelled at the LadyLand crowd as she rolled up on stage in a black-and-white horizontal-striped jumper. 'I'm an old bitch,' she joked. 'I have like 100 kids, I'm ready for bed.' What happened next was not the handiwork of someone with one foot in slumberland: Cardi led the eager crowd through a breathless tour of her biggest hits, despite the growing rain. 'Let's get sexy y'all!' Cardi shouted at the top of her set, perhaps needlessly – the LadyLand attendees, who had been gathering, gyrating, kiki-ing and flirting for hours, were way ahead of her, singing along and shaking ass the moment her tiny frame emerged on the fest's Fist Stage. (For those interested, 'Fist and Resist' keychains were available at the merch table.) Flanked by two giant inflatable fists with nails even longer than hers, Cardi B delivered hits like 'She Bad,' 'Money' and her new single, the Offset-eviscerating 'Outside,' with the effortless fervor and personality-drenched flow that catapulted her to fame. 'Imma spill some tea, get ready for the tour,' the five-time Billboard Hot 100 topper promised the audience of what was to come. Four of those five chart toppers ('WAP,' 'Bodak Yellow,' 'I Like It,' 'Up') were accounted for during her show. Despite the persistent rain that gathered strength throughout Cardi's set, the audience remained undaunted and rapt; after all, it's not every day you get to see a hip-hop superstar perform under the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (LadyLand has called Greenpoint's Under the K Bridge Park home since 2023). Prior to Cardi B's headlining set, Ladyfag, the LadyLand founder and a driving force in NYC nightlife, told the crowd about her history with the Bronx-raised rapper. 'It's a full circle moment for me and Cardi,' she explained: back in 2017, before Cardi ascended to mainstream success with 'Bodak Yellow,' she performed up at Holy Mountain, LadyFag's legendary NYC monthly throwdown. 'She got very excited about being with the gays,' Ladyfag recently told Billboard of that February 2017 party. 'She was only supposed to do a few songs, but she wouldn't stop. Within a few months, she became one of the biggest stars in the world — and she always remembered it.' That connection and warmth was obvious on Friday night, with Cardi blowing past her bedtime to give the gays, the dolls and everyone else an experience beyond what any other NYC festival provides. Saturday (June 28) is the second and last night of LadyLand 2025, with FKA Twigs headlining and performances from Pabllo Vittar, Boris, Eartheater, VTSS, Isabella Lovestory and Kevin Aviance.
