All the LGBTQ+ Icons and Allies Who Pulled Up to the 2026 GLAAD Media Awards

The 37th Annual GLAAD Media Awards brought the stars out to play in their best looks yet. Over the years, the event has recognized and honored inclusivity and representation for the LGBTQ+ community across movies, television, music, journalism, and social media. This year, Cosmopolitan earned an Outstanding Magazine Overall Coverage nomination for our dedication to uplifting and supporting queer voices beyond Pride month.

The 2026 GLAAD Media Awards also honored trailblazers, icons, and allies alike, as The Traitors, Stranger Things, and Heated Rivalry won big across several categories. Plus, Demi Lovato took the stage for a fierce performance of “Kiss” from her album, It’s Not That Deep, before Liza Minnelli fully surprised the crowd with a rare appearance.

Celebs from Connor Storrie and Laverne Cox to RuPaul’s Drag Race alumni and Olympic gold medalist Amber Glenn celebrated and uplifted the queer community. We even got a mini Riverdale reunion from presenters and IRL besties, Camila Mendes and Lili Reinhart, at the show, which took place at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles on March 5. But, before any of that happened, all the celebs pulled up to the red carpet to show off their stunning looks. Get ready to scroll through each pic ahead!
