Janelle Monáe will perform at New York City Pride Island on June 26, marking her first time performing at a Pride event since she came out as queer in 2018.
Monáe said that performing at Pride “has always been a dream” as she announced her headline slot.
“Pride means so much to so many of us, and to have the opportunity to share my live performance during Pride has always been a dream,” she said in a statement.
