Queer Beats – ClexaCon Edition

Queer Beats with Nikki Header
April 19, 2019 NikkiT

As some of you may know, Team LezWatch met all together (for the first time in person!) at ClexaCon in Las Vegas this past weekend. We had a blast covering as much queer content as possible all over our social media feeds. Here we are completely tired out on the last day:

(I will admit, I slept for 13 hours when I got back to Boston).

Besides seeing all my friends and attending panels, one of my favorite parts of CC is getting to see all my favorite actors have a good time, interact with fans, and even hang out with my favorites from other shows! So, this week’s Queer Beats is focused on behind-the-scenes ClexaCon seen through the eyes of the featured guests!

There are firsts for everything and at Clexacon it was the first time I signed for autographs where folx paid. I forgot About the 💰 part, so I want to apologize to anyone I told ey, meet me there for a selfie. Let me tell you that once I sat down and they asked me what priceI’d like to charge, I decided that I’d donate the proceeds to the sponsorship program to aid low income lgbtqia folx that want to attend. And no one was turned away for lack of funds 😉 Here are some pics of the panels: LGBTQ actors panel and the Vida panel with Mishel Prada. Hay novedades para todo y en Clexacon fue la primera vez que firmé autógrafos donde gente pagó. Me olvidé de esa parte, así que quiero disculparme con cualquier persona que les haya dicho, ay te watcho para una selfie. Déjame decirte que una vez que me senté y me preguntaron qué precio me gustaría cobrar, decidí que donaría las ganancias al programa de patrocinio para ayudar a las personas de bajos ingresos de lgbtqia folx que quieren asistir. Y nadie fue rechazado por falta de fondos 😉 Aquí hay algunas fotos de los paneles: el panel de actores LGBTQIA y el panel Vida con Mishel Prada. #clexacon #lgbtqiaactors #dotmariejones #brianaveskus #mandhalarose #nicolepacent #vidastarz #mishelprada #panel #queeraf #party

And that’s it for Queer Beats this week! Always thorough, always professional, never random!

One final note: whether you were at CC or you couldn’t attend, please make sure to check out the online stores of all the lovely vendors that were at the convention! There was lots of amazing fanart that deserves support!
