Wanda Sykes Urges Hollywood to ‘Protect Our Trans Brothers and Sisters' at Critics Choice LGBTQ+ Celebration: ‘That's Our Next Movement'

Comedian Wanda Sykes has a rallying cry for the entertainment industry and beyond: 'Protect our trans brothers and sisters… that's our next movement.' Sykes, who was honored with the Career Achievement Award Tuesday at the Critics Choice Association's 2nd Annual Celebration of LGBTQ+ Cinema & Television, said, 'I believe that's what our community does, we take care of each other… I know that love is stronger than hate… We gotta be prouder, we gotta be louder.' More from Variety Chad Stahelski on the 'John Wick' Franchise's Insane Body Count and Keanu Reeves' Fifth Movie: 'Still Working on It' Chuck Lorre Family Foundation Donates $350,000 to Van Ness Recovery House (EXCLUSIVE) 'Ballerina' Star Ana de Armas Says Tom Cruise 'Supports Every Movie' and 'Really Wants' Audiences to 'Go to the Theaters': 'We Are Working Together' The celebration honored achievements from LGBTQ+ creators and talent within the entertainment industry, showcasing emerging and established talent. Sykes, who is currently on the European leg of her 'Wanda Sykes Please and Thank You' tour, flew in for the event. Accepting the award from 'Wanda Does It' co-star Tim Bagley, Sykes said, 'I can't think of a community that's more loving than who we are. We are just trying to love and exist, and then when you have people from the outside that's attacking you for that, I think that's what makes us stronger.' She added, 'Any adversity makes you stronger, and that's who we are.' Other honorees from the night included Bowen Yang (Comedy Award; 'Saturday Night Live'), Bridget Everett (Ensemble Award; 'Somebody Somewhere'), Eric d'Arbeloff (Industry Leadership Award; Co-President of Roadside Attractions), the Queens of 'RuPaul's Drag Race' (Reality TV Award; 'RuPaul's Drag Race' Season 17), Niecy Nash-Betts (Groundbreaker Award; 'Grotesquerie') and Tramell Tillman (Supporting Performance Award – Drama Series; 'Severance'). Nash-Betts praised the LGBTQ+ community for its support. She said, 'When I was five years old, I said, 'I want to be Black, fabulous and on TV…' and here we are. I want to thank the Critics Choice Association for seeing me, not just for what I play on screen, but for who I am when the cameras stop rolling. You keep going, not for the applause – but for the impact.' She concluded her speech by urging the audience to 'keep breaking ground together until there's not one closet left to hide in.' Yang, who was honored with the Comedy Award, praised his fellow honorees and said, 'While I'm very honored to be receiving this, I do think a Comedy Award is the closest thing that queer people have to a participation trophy. We're all funny. I mean, I've never met a non-funny queer person. It's the way that we relate to each other in a world that's inhospitable at times.' The event took place at the Fairmont Century Plaza in Century City and was hosted by Sherry Cola.

Who tackles slugs in Meghan Markle's vegetable plot?

I CAN'T wait for our fruit and veg to be ready this year. When I've picked the perfect specimens of carrots, beans, lettuce, onions, courgettes and tomatoes I'll be sure to arrange them beautifully in a wicker basket and clutch it proudly while my husband takes a few pictures. I'll then stick them on Instagram for the world to admire. Of course this isn't true. I don't have an Instagram account but, more crucially, like last year and the year before that, it will be touch and go as to whether our crops are successful - last summer they were annihilated by slugs. I hate to admit I'm envious of Meghan Markle, Her vegetable garden yields crops worthy of red rosettes at The Yorkshire Show. She shared a picture on Instagram - reproduced on news websites - of a 'garden haul' of fresh produce seemingly grown at her Montecito mansion in California. There's broccoli, carrots, corn, red peppers and squash as well as spring onions and an assortment of fresh herbs. Meghan joins the growing band of celebrities and other rich and famous people showing off their home-grown produce on social media. Critics piled in with their cynical observations, chiefly the lack of soil on any of the Duchess of Sussex's produce. They've got a point. Does Meghan get her hands dirty tending her veg? Picture: Aaron Chown/PA David Beckham's crop of picture-perfect, freshly harvested radishes - which wife Victoria posted on social media - also caught my eye. 'He's been gardening all day and here he is, tending to his vegetable patch,' her caption read. Kneeling next to a raised bed, David clutches a clean-as-a-whistle horseradish just plucked from the garden at his Cotswold estate. It wasn't the lack of soil - although the veg was spotless - that struck me about the picture, it was his clean white canvas shoes and jeans. For someone who had been gardening all day there were no grubby knees. Maybe he'd just changed for the photo, who knows? I don't doubt that either Meghan or Becks garden. Both do, and they clearly enjoy it, which is great, but do they get stuck into any real grow-your-own gardening - the sort of hard slog, permanent dirt-under-the fingernails pursuits made famous by Tom and Barbara Good in the TV show The Good Life? If you ask me it's more like dabbling Growing crops demands real effort, on a daily basis, for many weeks of the year. It is hard work, as my husband and I have discovered in the 20 years since we acquired a garden. Preparing the soil and sowing takes time, then it's a constant battle to keep on top of pests: one week you're fighting blackfly on your broad beans, the next carrot fly - and not only on carrots - and white rot on onions and leeks. There's slugs, slugs and more slugs. I've even resorted to slug patrol at midnight, to remove the slimy beasts from our young courgette plants. I can't see Meghan or David doing that. Just-sown plants need protection from birds like pigeons, sparrows, and crows, and from cats raking up the soil. Then, perhaps most important of all, there's the weather: daily watering in dry spells, preventing waterlogging and keeping them upright throughout wet periods. The Beckhams' main residence is London - a long way from those raised beds. Growing veg presents great photo opportunities, but let's face it, many lifestyles are not conducive to tending them week-in-week-out. My husband and I are lucky, I suppose - our uneventful life means we can put in the hours. Having said that, it's good to know that if we were ever away cruising the Med or shopping in New York, our wonderful neighbours over the road would happily step in and do our watering. For many famous faces growing their own, there must be help behind the scenes. So, let's hear it for the many gardeners who are beavering away out of sight, hoes in hand.
