Los Angeles Magazine and Hulu Come Together to Honor Pride 2025 with ‘Mid-Century Modern’
Pride Month Celebrated at The Maybourne Beverly Hills with Los Angeles Magazine Event
Los Angeles, CA – In a vibrant celebration of Pride Month, Los Angeles Magazine hosted a lively gathering on June 12 at The Maybourne Beverly Hills, highlighting this year’s June cover star, actor Matt Bomer. The event, held on a picturesque terrace adorned with string lights, attracted a diverse mix of talent, media, and influential personalities.
The evening was dedicated to the Hulu sitcom Mid-Century Modern, featuring Bomer alongside fellow cover stars Nathan Lee Graham and Nathan Lane. Guests included notable figures from the entertainment industry, such as Marco Calvani from Netflix’s The Four Seasons and Liv Hewson of Yellowjackets, who mingled amid the festive ambiance.
Attendees also comprised other featured individuals from the magazine’s spotlight on impactful LGBTQ+ Angelenos, including Brian Crano, David Joseph Craig, and chef Stuart O’Keefe. The soirée was designed with a theme of “Mid-Century Magic,” providing guests with photo opportunities by Brandhustle Designs.
The alfresco event offered refreshments from various sponsors, including San Pellegrino and Mezcal 33, alongside a taco bar from The Maybourne and Junior Cookies. Specialty cocktails were curated to reflect the characters of Mid-Century Modern, such as Arthur Broussard’s Smoky Highball and Bunny Schneider’s Starlet Sling.
Matt Bomer’s arrival heightened the excitement, as he took the stage with the magazine’s publisher Chris Gianella and editor-in-chief Jasmin Rosemberg. Rosemberg shared a poignant quote from Bomer’s cover story, emphasizing the importance of focusing on solutions rather than challenges faced by LGBTQ+ actors. “People always want to talk about the problem of what it’s like to be a gay actor," Bomer stated. "But I’m so much more interested in the solution. And I think it’s in giving our voices to something that people can identify with.”
The event not only marked the celebration of Pride but also served as a testament to the growing influence and visibility of the LGBTQ+ community within the entertainment industry.
