Pride Toronto’s festival weekend kicked off Friday with a large swath of Church Street being closed off for food, festivities, and numerous venues to host an array of entertainment.
Among those was a stage sponsored by Bud Light, a company still reeling from the fallout over their partnership with trans TikToker Dylan Mulvaney, having recently lost their slot as America’s top-selling beer.
One of the acts on Friday night was Slash Need, whose on-stage performance included members sporting latex and masks with large eyes and oversized lips painted on, dancing suggestively to rave-style music.
One performer’s mesh top was so scant that the individual may as well have been topless, save for black tape over the nipples.
