No Filter: Shout Out To Moms

Welcome back to No Filter, your regularly scheduled dose of queer celeb hot goss and thirst. You may notice that I am not your regularly scheduled dose of Stef Schwartz. While she is away at A-Camp, I have been left with the extremely noble responsibility of keeping tabs on rich hot people who don’t know I exist.

Oh, you thought that I, Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya, wouldn’t use a No Filter takeover the week of Mother’s Day as an excuse to publish #MomContent? Look at Lauren Jauregui and her mom! Mommi as hell.

I know Hayley Kiyoko has already been featured once in this No Filter, but I just wanna say that it is extremely impressive to pull off a thirst trap whilst wearing a full sweatsuit. Good job!


I don’t really understand this British Vogue video but I don’t blame Cara Delevingne for wanting to marry herself.

An important dispatch from Drag Con.


I KNOW Carmen already took you through the Met Gala’s best lesbian, bi, and queer lewks, but I think the more times Lena’s outfit is published on Autostraddle dot com, the better life will be for us all.

Sara Ramirez wore another Good Outfit, what else is new?

  1. If you had told me that was a picture of Evan Rachel Wood playing a mom in a movie set in the early 90s, I would have believed you.
