GLAAD Media Awards 2020 - Winners Announced in Virtual Ceremony!

The 2020 GLAAD Media Awards didn’t happen in person this year, but they did hold a virtual ceremony to announce all of the winners!

The event was live streamed on GLAAD’s Facebook and YouTube accounts and an edited version of the virtual event will be shown on Logo on August 3.

“During this era of political and cultural division, LGBTQ images in media are crucial in accelerating acceptance for the LGBTQ community and countering the dangerous rise in anti-LGBTQ rhetoric,” said GLAAD president and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis (via The Hollywood Reporter). “This year’s award recipients, including Pose and Schitt’s Creek, continue to bring necessary mainstream visibility to diverse voices within the LGBTQ community, ultimately raising the bar for LGBTQ inclusion and representation in media.”

A lot of big stars made appearances in the virtual event, including Jennifer Garner, Cara Delevingne, Booksmart‘s Beanie Feldstein and Kaitlyn Dever, Demi Lovato, Dan Levy, Ben Platt, Chloe x Halle, Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade, and many more.
