\n\tThe Critics Choice Association started Pride Month festivities early, as the organization hosted its third annual Celebration of LGBTQ+ Cinema & Television on Friday in Los Angeles. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe event recognized a star-studded lineup of LGBTQ+ stars and creatives, with Dan Levy, Hannah Einbinder, Noah Schnapp, Jane Lynch and Heated Rivalry<\/em> creator Jacob Tierney all receiving honors. <\/p>\n

\n\tLevy, currently on the Emmy campaign trail for his new show Big Mistakes<\/em>, opened up in his speech about his desire for queer people to be able to make Hollywood projects \u201cwithout the added weight of responsibility \u2014 knowing that what we make needs to work in order to make an impact, in order for more of our stories to be told. Imagine the bliss of making something, knowing that there are so many queer stories being told that we can simply create for entertainment\u2019s sake, or better yet, fail and be given a second chance.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tHe mused that often those running the industry \u201cthink they know what they want until a Schitt\u2019s Creek<\/em> or a Heated Rivalry<\/em> comes along\u201d and are met with huge audience demand. Levy also took time to point out that those are \u201ctwo shows that only exist because Canada saw value in them first, two shows that have people clamoring to make more shows like them; but the truth is, we don\u2019t need more shows like them, we need more money being invested in queer voices, because we make you money.\u201d He added a hope that Hollywood gets to a place \u201cwhere the odds err in our favor, and Canada doesn\u2019t have to always say, \u2018I told you so,’\u201d joking that his homeland is \u201ca very modest country; we hate bragging, but we will if we have to.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tTierney himself was not present at the event, telling the room via video that \u201cI\u2019m working very hard on season two to get it out to people as soon as possible.\u201d Elsewhere in the program, Schnapp spoke about his Stranger Things<\/em> experience, saying that after playing Will Byers for a decade, \u201cBy the final season, portraying a narrative centered on identity, love, loneliness and the experience of coming out in the \u201980s became a very personal and significant milestone for me. So when I came out publicly at 18, I didn\u2019t realize how much Will\u2019s journey had been preparing me for my own.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tPoppy Liu made an appearance to present Einbinder\u2019s honor, where she particularly shouted out the Hacks<\/em> star\u2019s \u201chighly vocal support for a free Palestine\u201d resulting in a public reaction that has scared \u201cmany of our peers into complicity and silence.\u201d She continued to praise Einbinder for throwing \u201cher entire weight behind her advocacy for Palestine, undeterred by the backlash, the doxxing and the threats; in fact, doubling and tripling down with a steadfastness that moves me to tears.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAs Einbinder \u2014 who just this week wrapped up her tenure as Ava Daniels with the show\u2019s series finale \u2014 took the mic, she spoke about how her Hacks<\/em> role \u201cis such a cherished character to me and she is proof that yes queer representation matters, but it\u2019s made that much more authentic when queer people are given the ability to author their own stories,\u201d adding, \u201cI\u2019m so proud to feel represented by her.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAdditional honorees at the Critics Choice event included The Boulet Brothers, Bre-Z, Brandon Scott Jones, Dearbhla Walsh, Gina Yashere, Karim Dian\u00e9, Kerrice Brooks and\u00a0Paula Pell. \u00a0<\/p>\n
