Jennifer Coolidge Was Asked Why LGBTQ+ Fans Are So Great—And Her Answer Is On Point

It looks like the gays are trying to love, more than “murder,” Ms. Jennifer "Cool" Coolidge, who gave a thoughtful response when asked about the support and acclaim she has received from the LGBTQ+ community.

The White Lotus star attended the star-studded opening party for The Tryst Puerto Vallarta, a queer luxury resort in the historic Zone Romántica neighborhood in Mexico. The hotel is the latest from “the CEO of Everything Gay,” Tristan Schukraft, who owns West Hollywood’s The Abbey and has opened queer-friendly properties in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and the Pines.

The party was attended by host Matt Rogers, Demi Lovato, who performed “Cool for the Summer” at the opening, and the guest of honor, Jennifer Coolidge. During the red carpet interview with People magazine, Coolidge was asked how her gay fan base is different from other fan bases, and was asked, “What do you love about having them love you so much?”

Coolidge reflected on how heterosexual people are more inhibited in comparison, remarking:

She added:

"I think gay men and gay women just let loose and have a blast. They know how to have a really, really good—really fun time."

The 63-year-old comedy icon went onto reflect about the originality and creativity that her LGBTQ+ fans have shown her over her career. “I can’t get enough of this, frankly,” Coolidge dished, and her fans can’t get enough of her either.

Coolidge summed up her thoughts about the LGBTQ+ community, stating:

"They're really original, you know. They're a superior group of people."

Coolidge has had several good and fun times with gay fans worldwide by providing meme-worthy and Emmy-winning performances, including that of Tanya McQuoid of The White Lotus. McQuoid’s character also once commented on how "gay guys" are the bestest of friends, telling her assistant:

"Gay guys are really the best if you're looking for a friend."

In real life, Coolidge has long been an LGBTQ+ advocate and was honored in 2023 at the 34th Annual GLAAD Media Awards. After receiving GLAAD’s Special Recognition Award, Coolidge praised, “Here I am again, surrounded by gays, it's the story of my life."

She continued her story by discussing the importance of giving back, telling the crowd:

"I want to give back, you know. I believe we all have the right to be who we are and to love the people that we love and tell our stories and celebrate that in every way that we can."

Coolidge is also well known for supporting AIDS assistance through Aid for AIDS and donating to the Elton John AIDS Foundation.

Needless to say, Coolidge’s LGBTQ+ fans cannot get enough of her either:
