Stars Celebrate Pride Month 2026: Laverne Cox, Lisa Rinna and More Honoring the LGBTQ+ Community

This June, several Hollywood stars are celebrating LGBTQ+ culture, history and community in honor of Pride Month.

After the release of her memoir Transcendent, actress Laverne Cox traveled to Seattle, Washington, to attend the inaugural Lifelong Pride Gala, a fundraiser supporting LGBTQ+ community health.

With help from fellow attendees Brad Goreski, more than $142,000 was raised to continue providing health, housing and food access to LGBTQ+ members.

Other stars, like Lance Bass and Ashlee Simpson, are using their voices and performing at Pride events, including the 2026 OUTLOUD Music Festival in West Hollywood, California.

“Thank you for bringing so much light and love,” Simpson, 41, wrote via Instagram after performing. “Pride couldn’t be more important and to the LGBTQIA+ community, I stand beside you and will always love you! ❤️🌈❤️ Happy Pride!!”
