Taylor Swift makes surprise performance at gay bar Stonewall

Taylor Swift made a surprise performance at an iconic gay bar a day after releasing a song supporting the LGBTQ+ community.

Swift celebrated Pride Month by appearing at New York City’s Stonewall Inn on Friday night, June 14.

She released her new tune Thursday, June 13, called “You Need to Calm Down”, where she calls out those who attack the LGBTQ+ community.

The song is the second single from Swift’s seventh album “Lover” which will be released on Aug. 23.

Swift sang her hit song “Shake It Off” at the New York City bar with “Modern Family” actor Jesse Tyler Ferguson, who hosted the event.

Ferguson is working on a documentary about Stonewall Inn, where patrons resisted a police raid in 1969 and helped spark the gay rights movement. The bar is marking 50 years since the riots. HM/JB

This Sportswear Brand Released a Sneaker Line for LGBTQ Pride Month

To celebrate Pride Month, Nike released three sneakers under the Be True collection as they continue to support the LGBTQ community—and of course, it features the colors of the rainbow.

The first of the three is their new colorway for the Air Max Zero which comes in all white, but with a subtle rainbow design on the heel. The tongue features a pink label and you’ll also see “Be True” on the insoles to complete the look.

Next up is the running staple LunarTempo2 that comes in contrasting black and white finished off with rainbow done in graphic prints along with a pink sole. Now this looks more like a party.

Finally we have the basketball performance model Hyperrev 2016 also done in contrasting black and white with the upper that features a gradient rainbow.
