Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that absolutely under no circumstances would ever talk about Bruno, no, no, no. This week we are rewinding the clock to when Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hung out with actor Jessica Darrow (@jessdarrow_) to talk about the myriad of reasons why Disney’s 2021 animated musical Encanto Should’ve Been Gay. When you think of queerness and Encanto the first character to come to mind is probably Jess’s character Luisa, the hunky beefcake older sister with a heart of gold. And yea, obviously she’s gay, but we’d argue that Luisa is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the queerness of Encanto. From the magic “miracle” powers bestowed on each member of the Madrigal family to the colorful, rainbow-filled casita where they reside, this film is practically overflowing with queer energy. There’s Camilo, a shapeshifter who frequently changes gender; Bruno, the misunderstood outcast who just wanted to be accepted by his family; Mirabelle, the main character whose coming out didn’t quite go as planned; and of course Isabela, the “perfect” (closeted femme) sister who is hiding her true self out of fear of ending up rejected like Bruno. One thing is for sure, Encanto Should’ve Been Gay. Remember, you can give us your own answers to our Q & Gay on Instagram and follow along on Facebook, TikTok, and BlueSky @lezhangoutpod.
