US singer Anastacia has said she is “glad” to see ceremonies like the Metro Pride Awards celebrating LGBT+ people as there are “a lot of people” attacking the community at the moment.
Speaking to the PA news agency on the ceremony’s red carpet, she said: “I’m super glad to see something like this happening in the culture we’re in today, which is, ‘Oh, well, why are we going to do a Pride?’ No. We’re going to do it because we need it.
