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.
