Happy Pride--(L to R) Nick Verreos, Cher Calvin and John Fenoglio, KTLA 5 Live Telecast, WeHo Pride Parade 2024
June is PRIDE Month and for the second year in a row, I was invited to co-host the great KTLA 5 Live Telecast of the WeHo PRIDE Parade! WeHo Pride Parade is normally the first PRIDE Parade here in Los Angeles celebrating PRIDE Month. It is held in the City of West Hollywood, with floats and paraders coming down Santa Monica Blvd. for all the thousands of attendees to see.
WeHo PRIDE 2023--Last year, I co-hosted with Cher and Pedro Rivera (Pedro has since moved to NYC to work for KABC there) and we had a BLAST! And so I was humbled and honored to have been asked again to be part of the team...

Now, back to this year's WeHo PRIDE and our Live Telecast...

PRIDE Looks--Then (WeHo PRIDE 2023) and Now (WeHo PRIDE 2024)
It might look as if I was wearing the same outfit as last year, but...it's not: I kept the color scheme the same (pink and bright yellow), but just switched the items of clothing...
Now, speaking of BRIGHT YELLOW JACKETS: For some reason, my jacket (and more importantly, the COLOR!) was attracting these tiny little flies (!) and I was not a happy camper. We figured out that the brightness of my jacket was acting like one of those bright infrared lights that are used to catch insects and flies LOL! Before the telecast, David spent most of his time trying to swap the flies away from my jacket, to no avail.
Note to self: Only wear this jacket INDOORS!

During our live telecast, the fabulous "ICON" float was passing by, with the INCREDIBLE Cyndi Lauper...Cher Calvin turned to me and said "Nick! I GOTTA GO! I HAVE to go down there and meet CYNDI!" I was gave her my "Nick Look" of "No Should've Would've Could've! Do it!", and so...

Right after we wrapped our 3-hour+ telecast, we all celebrated and took group photos with the OUTSTANDING KTLA production crew that makes us (and the show) look amazing:
That's A Wrap! Honored to have been part of another WONDERFUL WeHo PRIDE Live Telecast with the incredible KTLA crew! Many Thank You's to Executive Producers Marcus Smith, Jacob Burch, and KTLA News Director Erica Hill Rodriguez, and the entire team!
Kylie Fans--Nick Verreos and David Paul at "Kylie Minogue Way"--WeHo PRIDE 2024--Kylie was performing later that Sunday night but needless to say, we just went home after my Live Telecast work and called it a day (and night!). This is as close as we got to "Kylie" ;)
Until Next Year (I hope!)...HAPPY PRIDE!
