The Internet Is Obsessed With Jennifer Coolidge's Response When A Reporter Asked Her About Her LGBTQ+ Fans
Jennifer Coolidge recently talked with People at The Tryst Puerto Vallarta: Opening Night Party in Mexico. During the conversation, the reporter asked, "How is the gay fan base different than any other fan base? What do you love about having them love you so much?" Jennifer has long voiced her support for her LGBTQ+ fans. In 2023, the White Lotus actor received a standing ovation at the 34th annual GLAAD Media Awards. "You know, I have so much respect for the LGBTQ community and I just want you all to know that I love you and I thank you for always being there for me," she said. Jennifer replied, "Maybe heterosexual people are more self-conscious." After taking a beat to think about her response, Jennifer said, "I think gay men and gay women just let loose and have a blast. They know how to have a really, really good — really fun time." Related: 28 Celebs Who Never Seem To Get Canceled Despite Some Pretty Awful Behavior "They're really original, you know. They're a superior group of people." Listen, I knew Jennifer was mother, but I fear she could never top this statement. She wasn't playing around when her character Tanya said, "Gay guys are really the best if you're looking for a friend."

Gay men are also the funniest quick witted natural comedians as a general rule." Another person said, "Jennifer Coolidge only speaks the truth." One person suggested the reason for Jennifer's declaration about her LGBTQ+ fans is because "they are not policing everyone else." Another user added, "They ain't got nothing to hide & have already been thru it all. They just wanna live authentically & have a gay ol' time doing it." Someone said there's "Collective Gay Cheering 4 This Diva," and based on the GLAAD Awards reception, they're not wrong. Lastly, this person wrote, "mama said it right there," and that's on period. Before you get your britches in a bunch, I'm sure Jennifer adores all her fans, but it doesn't hurt to show her LGBTQ+ fans a little extra love — and we love her back. Thank you, Jennifer!

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, April 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Tryst Puerto Vallarta officially opened its doors with a weekend-long celebration that brought together some of the biggest names in entertainment and LGBTQ+ culture for an experience that was as glamorous as it was groundbreaking. Curated by Tryst founder and 'CEO of Everything Gay' Tristan Schukraft, the grand opening weekend was a love letter to queer joy and luxury featuring exclusive performances, dazzling red carpet moments, and nonstop rooftop revelry in Zona Romántica. 'I wanted to create the kind of hotel I was always searching for—where the cocktails are cold, the men are hot, and you can wear the tiniest swimsuit you own without a second glance,' said Tristan Schukraft, founder of Tryst Hotels. 'Our grand opening weekend was everything a gay luxury hotel should be—drag queens diving into the pool, DJs lighting up the rooftop, and a sea of friends (and future friends) around every corner. The Tryst is unapologetically gay, effortlessly glamorous, and built for men who crave the finer things… with just the right amount of mischief.' The festivities kicked off Thursday with a Welcome Dinner & Show featuring powerhouse performances by Taiga Brava and Vincint, setting the tone for what would become a legendary weekend.

Saturday delivered a show-stopping Drag Brunch hosted by The Tryst Puerto Vallarta's star queens—Pelayo, Mizz Peaches, Shamira, and Queerboy—joined by the legendary Shea Couleé. The celebration rolled straight into an epic Rooftop Pool Party, hosted by Erika Jayne, with music by Leland and friends that kept the energy high all the way through sunset.
