We are addicted to RUSH by Troye Sivan

they said "Troye Sivan has just released his new song “Rush,” a title meant to invoke both the feeling of poppers and dancing with someone hot, along with an accompanying music video bursting with gay smut.”

we say, Troye has released the song of summer 2023!! RUSH has some of the most authentic disco influences and its videoclip serves the most fun summer party vibes ever.

The Australian singer released the raunchy new music video for his hot summer track RUSH two days ago, along with the equally sexy cover for his upcoming album Something To Give Each Other.

Italy's Maneskin wins Eurovision 2021 in ETRO

"We just want to say, to the whole of Europe, to the whole world, rock 'n' roll never dies," Maneskin's frontman Damiano David stated after winning.

Maneskin amazed the audience with their unique performance last night and they managed to get the first place after the audience’s voting.

Lots of sequins, pyrotechnics, neon pink and purple, supersonic belting and extreme styling were some of the higlight of the night. Even though, Maneskin appeared with ETRO custom made creations and they completed their image with the best design proposal.

Something captured here through DIESEL’s daring lens: real, raw, and intimate.

Hard Clo AW20-21 Campaign

Hard Clo unveiled its AW20 collection.

Hard’s founder and fashion director Yiorgos Mesimeris notes down what is behind the inspiration of the new collection and all the connections to it:

“Medusa was a hope in utter darkness. This collection is based upon the worst traits and the best virtues of the human nature. Hope, mirages, bad weathers and winds, treason. Everything coincides to become part of our reality, either political, personal or even environmental.

All constitute hazards. Yet the will to strive and survive always got the best out of a worst-case scenario. When everything seems to have fallen apart, never-ending courage finds a gleam of light to cease upon. Chaumery was inadequate and traitor, Africa Battalion wanted what was rightfully theirs. And a song we sang as children without knowing the consequences it carried.”

House of Illustration will open the UK’s first public solo show dedicated to artist Tom of Finland

This year House of Illustration will open the UK’s first public solo show dedicated to gay cultural icon and prolific artist Tom of Finland (born Touko Laaksonen), in partnership with Tom of Finland Foundation and the Finnish Institute in London.

This timely exhibition, on the centenary of his birth, will celebrate the artist whose homoerotic visions had a profound effect on gay communities in Europe and North America during a pivotal period in their history and continue to have an immeasurable influence on popular culture today. Tom of Finland: Love and Liberation will display 40 works on paper produced from the 1960s to the 1980s, both before and after homosexuality was decriminalised in much of Europe and the U.S.

It will include early drawings of men fighting that constituted the only legal way to show physical contact between men before decriminalisation, as well as illustrations from his iconic Kake comics and rare linocuts produced in very limited editions.

The exhibitiion wil be on from the 6th of March until late June.

TASOS XIARCHO x REY Magazine

He is one of the most inspirational dancers and choreographers in Greece.

We fell in love with his eccentric style and attitude and we couldn’t wait until the moment of his collaboration with REY.

He works for some of the biggest names in Greece like Tamta and Eleni Foureira and he usually doesn’t stop on the choreography part as he loves creating the whole image of the projects he produces ( including styling and art direction).

Tasos Xiarcho is a true artist and we are sure he will always excel in Greece and Europe.

AFTERGLOW is back in London's Waterloo East Theatre

After its sold-out run at Southwark Playhouse, AFTERGLOW transfers to Waterloo East Theatre, London with a brand new cast.

Josh and Alex are in an open married relationship. But after young Darius shares their bed for a night, a new intimate connection begins to form, and all three men must search for one another’s notions of love, intimacy, and commitment. Will their search for passion and intimacy come as easily as their freedom to play around?

Afterglow is a ‘steamy stripped-down look at gay intimacy’ (Huffington Post).

Recommended age 16+. This show contains strong language and nudity.

The play runs for a limited season. For more info and tickets check HERE
