Indya Moore launched a TranSanta initiative to help gift presents to trans kids and young adults in need, Forbes released its annual list of highest-paid celebrities, and other culture news you missed this week.
Indya Moore launched the TranSanta initiative
Indya Moore, the 25-year-old star of award-winning television series Pose, just launched an initiative that lets users anonymously gift presents to trans kids and young adults in need. “Trans issues don’t receive much visibility or attention unfortunately, but this year has been the most violent and deadly for my community,” Moore, who is nonbinary and uses they/them pronouns, wrote on Instagram. “It has been very upsetting.” Moore launched TranSanta with a group of friends, saying in an Instagram video, “My friends and I want to make sure that trans kids feel like they are a gift to this world because they are. Acceptance and love are gifts we all deserve all year.”
Blue Ivy Carter became a Grammy nominee
This week, Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s daughter Blue Ivy was nominated for her first (and probably not her last) Grammy. Nominated for her appearance in the music video for Beyoncé’s “Brown Skin Girl,” the eight-year-old is one of the youngest nominees in Grammys history. When the 2021 Grammy nominations were announced last month, the Recording Academy only listed Beyoncé as the main nominee in the Best Music Video category for that song from her Lion King: The Gift visual album. However, this week the nomination was updated to include both Blue Ivy and WizKid, another featured artist on the track. The 63rd Grammy Awards will take place January 31, 2021. Tune in then to see if the mother-daughter duo take home the gold.
