GAY TIMES Magazine

22 March 2024

In 2024, making a magazine issue all about ‘drugs’ seems paradoxical, because surely we’re all sober, right? Well, more people than ever seem to be swearing off the drink. According to statistics, around a third of 18 to 24 year olds don’t consume alcohol at all and, anecdotally, most folks can opt for a Lucky Saint over a traditional lager without prompting a single raised eyebrow. Helming the issue, queer pop star Fletcher opens up about her new album In Search of the Antidote in a revealing interview published alongside intimate images lensed by her ex-girlfriend, YouTuber Shannon Beveridge. In the interview, Fletcher looks at how her life has changed following her Lyme disease diagnosis and her new era of boundaries, healing and self-love.
