iHEART CELEBRATES PRIDE MONTH

Lil Nas X, Demi Lovato, P!NK and Ricky Martin are among the participants in iHeartMedia’s virtual relief benefit for the LGBTQ+ community, Can’t Cancel Pride.

The one-hour benefit special produced by iHeartMedia and Procter & Gamble will stream 6/4 at 9pm on iHeartRadio’s TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram TV pages, iHeartRadio’s PrideRadio.com and Revry as well as broadcast on iHeartMedia radio stations nationwide and on the iHeartRadio App. The event will be available on demand via iHeartRadio’s TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram TV pages, iHeartRadio’s PrideRadio.com and Revry until 6/30.

Brothers Osborne, Busy Phillips, Jennifer Hudson, Marshmello, Troye Sivan and others are participating. Bebe Rexha will perform her new single “Sacrifice.”

“As the country is returning back to normal and we are slowly starting to gather again, LGBTQ+ communities around the world are still feeling the devastating effects of COVID-19,” said Gayle Troberman, Chief Marketing Officer for iHeartMedia. “We look forward to once again celebrating the incredible voices and allies of the LGBTQ+ community with an amazing night of music that will honor Pride and the communities’ fight for equal rights, all while benefitting six remarkable nonprofits that make an everyday positive impact.”

The second annual event will kick off a month-long Pride celebration as iHeartMedia radio stations will air spots encouraging listeners to watch the event on demand, share their special Pride moments on social media using the hashtag #CantCancelPride, and support the participating nonprofits by visiting cantcancelpride.com or texting “RAINBOW” to 56512.

Funds raised in 2020 provided critical resources for the six nonprofit partners—CenterLink, The Trevor Project, SAGE, National Black Justice Coalition, Youth And Young Adult Action Council and OutRight Action International.
