Perez Hilton Kicks Off Pride Week In Tel Aviv

Perez Hilton is a figurehead of the LGBTQ community so it’s not surprise that he’s attending pride events in more than one city around the world.
First stop: Tel Aviv!
The star posted a picture on Instagram of his face on the cover of “Israel Hayom,” the largest newspaper in Israel.
He also posted a picture of himself partying dad-style.
Hilton called Tel Aviv’s pride festivities “like no other I have been to before,” calling the celebration “a beacon of hope and acceptance in the Middle East.”
Although Hilton is not himself Jewish, he once tweeted about the “kinship” he feels with Jewish people.
Pride festivities will be taking place all over the world for LGBT Pride Month.

This is a moment of great uncertainty. Here’s what you can do about it.
We hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, we’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s independent Jewish news this Passover.
This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions. An era in which we need humans to report facts, conduct investigations that hold power to account, tell stories that matter and share honest discourse on all that divides us.
With no paywall or subscriptions, the Forward is entirely supported by readers like you. Every dollar you give this Passover is invested in the future of the Forward — and telling the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.
