(ENGLISH SPOKEN) A hot new bombshell entered the Amsterdam Masseria, and her name is none other than the legend, the icon Amy Spalding. The people’s princess from I Kissed A Girl fame is coming to Amsterdam for Worldpride and an exclusive one night only event hosted and written by Annefleur Schipper and Vera Siemons from the award winning Lesbische Liga Podcast.
For this exclusive Worldpride event, we will dive into the lesbian renaissance of the past years and talk about all things queer representation. From Rosalia’s current status as our bisexual lord and savior, to Renee Rapp’s chokehold on us all, the teasing of a return of Killing Eve, the queer panic caused by the WNBA players, the fantastic sapphic on-screen moments given to us by Hacks and of course the final (boo!) season of I Kissed A Girl, with firsthand reviews and insights coming to you from Amy Spalding herself. It’s the closest to a reunion we will get, girls!
But that's not all. Amy has just released her brand-new book, The Dykonic Handbook, a joyful and unapologetically queer guide to sapphic life, love, and culture. We'll talk to her about writing the book, the stories behind it, and how to become the most dykonic version of yourself. So bring your favourite ex, your burning questions and your most unhinged energy and we will see you there!
