Chart-topping Singer-Songwriter Speaks Out For LGBTQIA Rights On Latest Single

Chicago musician Sarantos releases “Love Always Wins” on February 1st, 2022. It’s the follow-up to his UK iTunes hit, “A Spoonful of Greece.“

“I thought about what I’d say or how I’d feel if my best friend or kid opened up to me and revealed that they were gay. I realized nothing would change…no matter what, no matter who, love always wins”— Sarantos

Diversity. That’s how one could label prolific chart-topper, Sarantos‘ eclectic and ever-changing musical styles. From pop and rock to country, new age, jazz and rap, the Chicago-based artist is never afraid to take chances with his enigmatic songwriting. He bets on his instincts and wins every time, scoring #1 iTunes chart hits in both the UK and South Africa. Sarantos continues his streak of monthly single releases with his February 1st, 2022 offering, in support of diversity, “Love Always Wins.” Just in time for Valentine’s Day, the singer-songwriter, musician, author, radio host, poet, and philanthropist raises his banner as a champion of the LGBTQIA community, taking a passionate stance against the struggles the community faces.

Sarantos says, “The definition of LGBTQIA is lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning (one’s sexual or gender identity), intersex, and asexual/aromantic/agender. But the bottom line is, we are all human. We all bleed the same blood. We are all equal. It’s sad that some in the world still carry hate in their hearts. It’s sad the things some people have to go through to be treated equally. It’s not fair. Some of us never know what it feels like to be looked at that way. Some of us are privileged, yet think that our lives are so difficult.”

He continues, “For this song, I thought about what I’d say or how I’d feel if my best friend or kid opened up to me and revealed that they were gay. I realized nothing would change. I wouldn’t love them any less. I wouldn’t want to hang out with them any less. They would still be my best friend or my kid. And I would still be me. I think I get this from my dad. He always preached growing up that we were all human and we all deserved love and respect. Sometimes I don’t understand the world. Why wouldn’t everyone agree? It breaks my heart that people can feel differently about such an important issue.”

A lyric video, official music video, poem and story will also follow throughout the month.

“Let’s remember that no matter what, no matter who, love always wins.”

Bobbi Althoff Claps Back, Shuts Down Rumors of Sleeping with Interview Guests

Bobbi Althoff is currently one of the biggest names in the podcast and media space. Her rapid rise to fame has been a bit polarizing, with some people not appreciating how quickly she has ascended the ranks. Despite this, Althoff remains a heavily discussed figure on social media, especially for her interviews with rappers. However, her success has unfortunately come with a wave of misogynistic accusations.

A common criticism Althoff faces is the baseless claim that she “slept her way to the top,” particularly after her interview with Drake. Even Ryan Garcia perpetuated this erroneous rumor. Previously, Althoff had not addressed these trolls, but on Wednesday, she decided to put a hater in their place. According to TMZ, Althoff took to her Instagram to call out the false accusations.

In her Instagram story, Althoff made it clear that she does not sleep around and has never slept with any of her interview guests. She expressed frustration over the constant accusations whenever she posts about interviewing a man. Additionally, she addressed rumors about her personal life, stating that social media only shows what she allows it to. With this, Althoff aimed to silence the rumors once and for all.

What do you think of Bobbi Althoff’s response? Do you believe this will put an end to such comments, or will the ignorance persist? Share your thoughts in the comments below. For more updates on your favorite artists and their upcoming projects, stay tuned to Honk Magazine.

Lori Harvey Rocks Leopard Bikini and Cowgirl Hat, Ignites Social Media Frenzy

Lori Harvey may be keeping her dating endeavors under wraps these days, but fortunately for fans, the same doesn’t apply to her beach-ready bod. Recently, the 27-year-old model took to her Instagram Story to share a fun clip of herself vibing to Tyla with a couple of friends. She stunned in a tiny leopard print bikini, which she paired with a straw hat and some eye-catching gold jewelry.

Hollywood Unlocked shared the fun clip on Instagram earlier today, and as expected, their comments section is now flooded with fans sharing their takes. While most are simply thirsting over Harvey’s summery look and snatched figure, others can’t wait to hear more about her love life, particularly after her recent Parisian rendezvous with Luka Sabbat.

She and the Grownish actor were spotted enjoying lunch at a local hotspot last month, and of course, dating rumors were soon to follow. Harvey didn’t waste any time shutting them down, however, making it clear that the two of them are nothing more than friends. “Aht! Aht! Me and Luka have been friends for years, let’s not start this narrative,” she wrote at the time. It appears as though these days, she’s enjoying her time as a single gal, at least in the public eye. Fans can’t blame her for it either, though they are anxious as ever to see who she’ll pop out with following her split from Damson Idris.

Either way, she looks to be living her best life and making the most of her summer, and her supporters are certainly here for it. What do you think of Lori Harvey living her best life in a leopard print bikini? What about fans badgering her for more details about her love life?
