Interviews
“This has been the funnest interview I have had in years. You haven’t asked me hard political questions once!” Mashrou’ Leila’s Hamed Sinno. Mashrou’ Leila is Loverboy’s favourite band in the world right now. The Lebanese foursome write/produce/perform songs that have been controversial enough to see concert-goers arrested in Cairo and the group banned from Jordan…twice. […]
’Slap on the big tits, big hair and make up that’s been applied with a donkey’s dick.’ This was Róisín Murphy‘s response to Loverboy’s opening pitch. Then, after emailing Detox, we received a ‘YES!’ less than two minutes later. Perhaps the fastest response of all time. For Loverboy, this project has been a dream pairing. One […]
The best things about another RPDR All Stars is the return of some of our most cherished queens. Case in point: Naomi Smalls. And Miss Naomi ain’t even waiting till her exit to drop something – no, she’s releasing her new single ‘Pose’ later today!! What is the history of Naomi Smalls? When I turned […]
When Loverboy first moved to Barcelona, it didn’t take us long to figure out which people were going to be added to our wishlist.

Then just yesterday, it was revealed that the White House had joined Saudi Arabia and Iraq in the heinous decision of […]

After winning the fifth season of Not Another Drag Competition, Mark has been a regular fixture on the scene – performing their unique mix of burlesque comedy to an appreciating audience all over the country.

A constant outsider, trying to fit in to a foreign world, it’s easy to see why Doctor Who has always been an LGBT icon, long before Queer As Folk’s Vince confessed his obsession. To celebrate the launch of her first Doctor Who novel, The Good Doctor, Loverboy talks to LGBT author, Juno Dawson, about her history […]
Now last time Loverboy hung out with Hunter Harden, he was living the American dream, swigging his Blue Ribbon while wearing just his red, white and blue tube socks. Total masc-4-masc patriotism. What a different twelve, ok thirteen, months can make. Having spent the afternoon with photographer Thomas Evans, Hunter embraced his inner butch-queen for […]
