TEAM DIVA
Editor’s letter
I’m writing this a fortnight after the 2022 DIVA Awards and I’m still glowing from the memory. After two years of the pandemic and being, necessarily, kept apart from each other, it was so invigorating to be surrounded by our community once more.
The fabulously dressed guest list featured A-list stars – “National Trevor” Sandi Toksvig, top hat enthusiast Suranne Jones, bicon in a lime green trouser suit Pearl Mackie and, my number one celesbian crush, Rosie Jones – as well as gamechanging activists, including the awesome UK Black Pride team. We honoured queeroes like Doctor Who dreamboats Thasmin, groundbreaking comedian Mae Martin and Radio 1’s magnificent Adele Roberts, who is sharing her journey with bowel cancer online to help end stigma and save lives.
