Now in its 14th year, Manhattan nightlife staple Cherry Jubilee coordinates the presentation and nominations annually based on suggestions from those working in the nightlife business.

Last week, Cherry blasted out blank nomination forms to the members of LGBT nightlife and asked them for their feedback on who should get this year’s nods.

While GaySocialites.com would like to recognize everyone in New York nightlife for their hard work and contributions, the following nightlife celebrities have caught the eye of the editorial board and thus are endorsing them in their respective categories.

Popularity Contest #105

They say better late than never, right?  That’s definitely the case with this episode of GaySocialites.com’s Popularity Contest.  It features last week’s most popular stories (yes, the week ending July 27, 2012).

Demanda Endorses: Welcome to your Pride!

For this gal, Pride is about friends and drinks, and drinks with friends. I’ll go anywhere for these said drinks with friends, and have spent past Prides in some very interesting places. Last year I made no plans and had not a clue how I was going to spend Pride Sunday. I woke up in a stupor at a stranger’s apartment in Hell’s Kitchen Sunday morning after a wild romp the night before at Vlada. We took a cab to my place so I could change outfits and touch up my face. (Yes, I often need little touch ups.) Our initial plan was to go somewhere and watch the Parade, however, before I knew it, my apartment was full of drag queens and club kids and one King Ralphy who invited us to a Pride party he was hosting at Midtown Loft and Terrace. It’s around the block from my place and on a rooftop on a gorgeous summer day in Manhattan? Sign me up!
