This is the Queerty Interview, where we bring you conversations with the most exciting LGBTQ+ voices in entertainment, activism, and beyond. Cameron Scheetz, Entertainment Editor at Queerty, hosts today’s episode featuring the hilarious Megan Stalter ahead of the fifth and final season of Hacks.

Since the beloved Emmy-winning comedy premiered in 2021, Megan has established herself as one to watch. She plays the scene-stealing Kayla, a former assistant at Deborah Vance’s management company, whose frequently questionable but always well-intentioned methods have helped her climb the ranks in the industry.

Now working alongside her former boss Jimmy, played by Paul W. Downs, Megan reflects on her time with the show. She credits Hacks, and specifically Paul, for giving her the career she has today, sharing what it’s meant to act opposite him and learn from him every step of the way.

And while we wouldn’t dare spoil where things go in this final season, we had to ask Megan what she thinks Kayla’s idea of a happy ending would be, which, of course, involves Jimmy.

Megan was also recently a guest of honor at the annual Queerties Awards, where she received the Vanguard Award, recognizing her work as one of the leading queer voices in comedy. On the red carpet, she told us that if the night goes well, she might consider a run for president. Naturally, we had a few follow-up questions.

Welcome to The Queerty Interview, where we bring you conversations with the most exciting LGBTQ+ voices in entertainment, activism, and beyond. In today’s episode, Queerty’s Adam Salandra sits down with stand-up comedian, actor, and content creator Michael Henry.

Michael has become a must-follow voice in queer comedy thanks to his sharp observations, deeply relatable videos, and his ability to capture the messiness, humor, and contradictions of gay culture. Whether he is skewering dating apps, touring internationally, or turning dumpsters, French onion dip, and therapy into comedy gold, his work resonates because it is honest and very funny.

In this wide-ranging conversation, Michael opens up about finding inspiration in everyday gay life, navigating social media algorithms, touring the world, creating more serious work about topics like HIV, and why humor can be both a shield and a love language.

In this episode of the Queerty Interview, Cameron sits down with Alexander Skarsgård and Harry Melling to talk about Pillion, their bold and unexpectedly tender new gay romantic comedy. Directed by first-time feature filmmaker Harry Lighton, Pillion tells a love story unlike any other.

Melling stars as Colin, a shy, directionless young man still living with his parents, whose life changes after he catches the eye of Ray, a confident and commanding biker played by Skarsgård. What begins as an erotic plunge into BDSM culture reveals itself to be something far sweeter — a sharp, funny, and surprisingly heartfelt exploration of power, intimacy, and connection.

With Pillion now playing in select theaters, Skarsgård and Melling open up about their hilarious first meeting, working alongside their scene-stealing dog co-stars, and what they learned from the real-life Gay Bikers Motorcycle Club, who consulted on and appear in the film.

Pillion is also a nominee for Best Comedy Movie at the 2026 Queerties, Queerty’s annual awards celebrating the best in LGBTQ+ pop culture. If you loved the film, show your support by casting your vote! You can vote once per day, every day, through February 17. Head to Queerty.com and help crown this year’s queer favorites.
