Hayu has launched its first locally produced original content series – Loud + Proud with entertainment reporter and all-around fabulous human Justin Hill.
The short-form series (which consists of six, seven-minute episodes) will launch in conjunction with Sydney WorldPride.
Premiering on the streaming platform from February 23, the series shines a light on the Australian LGBTQIA+ community.
“Ever since I was little, my family has encouraged me to live my life LOUD and PROUD and I feel incredibly lucky to be working with the Hayu team who has brought the care and attention needed to create a truly inspiring series,” Hill said in a statement.
“I hope our show can help the emerging LGBTQIA+ community to feel empowered, unashamed and unafraid to be their true selves. This series will bring WorldPride back to where it started: celebrating who we are… with some glitter thrown in for good measure!”
According to the official synopsis, Loud + Proud covers everything from the impact of coming out and exploring the gender spectrum to owning your identity and parenthood and creating wider allyship in Australia and across the world.
There will be meaningful conversations, as well as inspirational content that aims to educate viewers and each ep will delve into topics related to the LGBTQIA+ community at large, with guests sharing their personal experiences.
When is Loud + Proud streaming and who will be featured?
Loud + Proud will bring together the ultimate line-up of Australian LGBTQIA+ icons and allies, including Samantha Jade, Jack Vidgen, Alfie Arcuri, Mitch & Mark, Carla from Bankstown, Deni Todorovic, Etcetera Etcetera, Dominique Topp and James Devlin.
