The 29th annual GLAAD Media awards took place last night at the Beverly Hilton in LA.
The awards celebrate media for fair, accurate and inclusive representations of LGBTQ people and issues, and one of its highlights was undoubtedly Britney Spears being presented with the Vanguard Award.
Both her speech and Ricky Martin’s, who presented her with the gong, were very sweet and heartfelt.
Other big winners of the night included Jim Parsons, who was given the Stephen F. Folzak Award, This is Us won for Outstanding Drama Series, Brooklyn Nine-Nine for Outstanding Comedy Series, and Master of None’s episode ‘Thanksgiving’ won Outstanding Individual Episode (in a series without a regular LGBTQ character).
