The Golden Globe nominations are here and they’re super gay

Nominations for the 76th Annual Golden Globe Awards are in and they include a record number of LGBTQ roles, actors, allies, movies, and TV shows.

Melissa McCarthy was nominated for her role as lesbian author Lee Israel in Can You Ever Forgive Me? She’ll be competing against Lady Gaga in A Star Is Born.

Meanwhile, Rami Malek was nominated for playing Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody, and Lucas Hedges was recognized for his work in Boy Erased.
