Gay mayhem: 7 best moments at the 2025 Las Culturistas Culture Awards
That's Las Cultch, babes. Bravo Media; Griffin Nagel/BRAVO 2025 Las Culturistas Culture Awards collage with (ABOVE) Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers; (BELOW) Sasha Colby, Law Roach, Allison Janney, Reneé Rapp, Quinta Brunson, Sarah Michelle Gellar. Culture called and we answered the phone last night at the 2025 Las Culturistas Culture Awards! Cohosts Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers gathered all of the titans in culture under one roof to award those worthy of the coveted trophies. The two comedians opened the show with a stirring rendition of Lady Gaga's "Abracadabra" and a hilarious opening monologue. The room seemed to be buzzing with anticipation as the awards were handed on during a televised broadcast on Bravo last night, which will be available on Peacock today. They managed to get so many of their notable nominees to attend, including the cast of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Jamie Lee Curtis, Dylan Efron, Gabby Windey, Reneé Rapp, and Robyn with a Y (the Riddler's assistant). And Allison Janney was deservedly honored with the Lifetime of Culture Award and a stunning, moving tribute. Before the awards ceremony aired, Yang and Rogers promoted the show during TV interviews and handed out some of the awards. During their appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, they gave him the award for Best Future Podcaster (given that his show was recently canceled). Rogers appeared on Jenna Bush Hager's morning show, TODAY with Jenna & Friends, Yang made a surprise appearance to award her with the Cultch for TODAY Show Award for Excellence in the Morning. The boys have been gearing up for this moment and the night has finally come, so here are the best moments from last night's award show. Reneé Rapp presents the Reneé Rapp Award for Power in Lesbianism Important: Reneé Rapp is presenting the Reneé Rapp Award for Power in Lesbianism at the Las Culturistas Culture Awards. #cultureawards2025 #ReneéRapp Reneé Rapp made an appearance at the awards show to present the award named in her honor and the nominees were: Probably Your Grandma Even Though She Was Married to Your Grandpa for 50 years, Women in film crews wearing hard clothes to do their tough jobs, Miss Honey from Matilda, MUNA, and the carabiner. It was an incredibly tight race, the carabiner had a great year and my money was on that, but Probably Your Grandma won out this year and sent a sweet message from heaven. Sasha Colby presents Best New Artist We're gagged by Gaggy. #cultureawards2025 #SashaColby #GabbyWindey Last night, RuPaul's Drag Race alum Sasha Colby gave out the award for Best New Artist because it just makes sense after her drag daughter, Chappell Roan, won Best New Artist at the Grammy Awards earlier this year. The award went to everyone's favorite Bachelorette turned lesbian and Traitors winner, Gabby Windey. She kissed her wife, Robby Hoffman, right before rushing up to the stage to accept her award. "This is not the first time a gay man has helped me win something, big shoutout to Dylan Efron," she joked during her acceptance speech. She went on to thank her wife, her agents, managers, and of course, the lesbians. Matt and Bowen perform Lady Gaga's "Abracadabra" We will never recover from Abracadabra. #cultureawards2025 #MattRogers #BowenYang #LadyGaga Rogers and Yang are no strangers to the stage, and they kicked off the show with an electrifying cover of Lady Gaga's "Abracadabra" complete with full choreography. They didn't lip sync, they sang live and delivered an amazing performance to get the crowd excited for the show. Parvati Shallow presents the Eva Longoria Award for Tiny Woman, Huge Impact Award This is the height of culture. #cultureawards2025 #ParvatiShallow #QuintaBrunson Survivor winner and Traitors contestant Parvati Shallow stopped by the Las Culturistas Culture Awards show to present an important award. Out of all the formidable nominees, Quinta Brunson beat them all and delivered a rousing speech, recognizing short people everywhere and holding space for the vertically challenged people across the world. It was one for the history books! Meg Stalter presents the Allison Williams Cool Girl Award Cool girls were raised by Paige DeSorbo. #cultureawards2025 #MegStalter #PaigeDeSorbo Meg Stalter attended the awards ceremony to hand out the award for Allison Williams Cool Girl Award, mentioning that the one thing she and Williams have in common is that they're both a muse for Lena Dunham. This award went to Summer House's Paige DeSorbo, who came in one of the chicest outfits of the night with an asymmetrical hat and a sleek bodycon dress. Kristen Wiig presents the Allison Janney received the Lifetime of Culture Award Kristen Wiig's honoring Allison Janney at the Las Culturistas Culture Awards 🫶 #cultureawards2025 #KristenWiig #AllisonJanney At every award show, one of the biggest trophies of the night goes to someone who might not have gotten the awards or the recognition they deserved throughout their career. Although Janney does have an Oscar, a Golden Globe, and seven Emmys, she was honored with this year's Lifetime of Culture Award. She was introduced by her Palm Royale co-star, Kristen Wiig, and instead of a montage of all of her best work, they decided to do a moving tribute, which was essentially a choreographed interpretive dance that was inspired by all of her major movie and television career highlights. Dave Franco and Alison Brie present Best Batman Woman Who runs the world? You already know. #cultureawards2025 #AlisonBrie #DaveFranco #KristenWiig The audience was treated to another bit from Wiig when Alison Brie and Dave Franco presented the award for Best Batman Woman. Personally, I think it should have gone to Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman, but Robyn with a Y (the Riddler's assistant) took home the Cultch last night. Robyn (played by Kristen Wiig) accepted the award, making sure to note that her supervillain boss is a great manager. She shared what she does on a day to day basis and ended her speech saying, "I want to say thank you to this show, I don't know where I am or what this is." She added, "But this must have been started by women, for women, so a final thank you to the two ladies of Los Culturiscias." - YouTube The 2025 Las Culturistas Culture Awards ceremony is now streaming on .

WWE's new ESPN deal is its latest endeavor to separate fans from their money
WWE's marquee premium live events — the tentpole primetime match cards once known as pay-per-views — are headed to ESPN. That means WrestleMania, the Royal Rumble, SummerSlam and more will be a part of the Worldwide Leader's (tm) quest to control all sports. But those events won't necessarily be part of the network's traditional offering. You may not be able to sit down on a spring weekend, navigate to ESPN on whatever streaming or cable provider you prefer and watch Gunther chop Seth Rollins into oblivion with a world title on the line. If you want to watch WrestleMania, you'll need ESPN's direct-to-consumer streaming service. Starting at $29.99 per month (or $299.99 per year). That's a significant departure from the current home of WWE. Peacock, NBC's streaming platform, broadcasts WWE premium live events at a cost starting at $10.99 per month or $109.99 for the year. If you kept an eye out on Black Friday, you could get a deal to drop it as low as $1.99 per month. Before that, the WWE Network housed archived shows from the federation's illustrious history and the promise of live events for just $9.99. This effectively charges fans triple the going rate after more than a decade of inexpensive broadcasts. The issue isn't just ESPN. Earlier in 2025, Monday Night Raw, the company's flagship weekly show, moved to Netflix. That means keeping up with major storylines will cost you another $7.99 monthly — or $17.99 if you want to spring for the ad-free package. If you're looking for Smackdown, WWE's other weekly program, you'll need access to USA Network. That's provided through Peacock, but each episode runs on a four-week delay, so it's not especially helpful. Let's say you're getting that through YouTubeTV. That starts at $82.99 per month. Thus, if you're doing this as inexpensively as possible, watching WWE's weekly programming and premium live events will run fans about $121 each month. More than $1,400 per year. Meanwhile, you can bundle NFL's Sunday Ticket and RedZone for $420 total. That gives you every single NFL game for a cost of about $70 per month. There's some value here. WWE has created a spectacle. Its wrestlers are some of the best in the world. The presentation is unparalleled. And since pay-per-views used to cost between $50 and $60 before the age of streaming, there's at least some logic to paying half that on a monthly basis while getting access to a host of other live sports. But a big part of the WWE's resurgence has been access. The company undoubtedly stepped up its game over the last decade. It brought in beloved wrestlers, entangled them in engaging storylines and allowed a myriad of talented grapplers who would have been overlooked in the past to shine. They shined brightest because it was easy to see them at the peak of their powers. Want to watch Money in the Bank? That'll only cost you ten bucks for the month. Want to watch old Money in the Banks? No problem; that's included too. Ten dollars per month for that felt like a steal. It helped justify splurging on live shows, which are getting absurdly expensive in their own right. At $30? That's tougher to rationalize. Partnering with ESPN and raising the price will be an immediate boost to profits, which is exactly what Endeavor Group Holdings (WWE's parent) wants as a publicly traded company. It also threatens to turn customers away, especially if the quality of the product drops — a cycle ingrained in pro wrestling. WWE is cutting deeper than ever in its attempt to fleece the sheep that pay for its product. Cut too deep and you risk skinning those customers. You can only do that once. This move to ESPN could be WWE's skinning moment. A partnership with a cable Goliath and a place in the cabinet of its new flagship streaming service is a legitimizing event. It also threatens to shrink a loyal audience in search of greater profit. In a search for more cash and new fans, the corporation is making it more difficult to be an old one.
