The lineup has been announced for the Wales Wide Virtual Pride, which will take place from this Thursday, July 23, until Saturday, July 25.

This comes as the very first Powys Pride - which was set to take place in Llandrindod Wells - had to be called off because of coronavirus.

However, the Powys Pride organisers are taking part in the Wales Wide Virtual Pride. Its show will be part of the 8:15pm slot on Friday, July 24, which is hosted by BBC weather presenter Owain Wyn Evans.

First up in the Wales-Wide Virtual Pride line up is Jack Emory and JECCA BLAC with a very special ‘Get Ready With Us’ featuring the products from one of our sponsor Spectrum Collections.

Introduced by the multi-talented and award-winning Lady Gaga tribute act, Donna Marie, spend some time in conversation with Jack Emory, otherwise known as Makeup by Jaack, and Jessica Blacker, founder of Jecca Blac as they share make-up tips featuring Spectrum Collection brushes with us on the eve of the virtual pride event.

Jessica started Jecca Blac by offering makeup lessons to trans women in her Cardiff makeup studio, which acted as a safe space. Jessica would also visit Parc Prison to help trans inmates to teach them with makeup. Jessica was inspired by her clients to create a brand that overlooks gender and concentrates on individuality.

Jack Emory is a self taught makeup artist and social media personality who is renowned for his editorial and creative makeup looks. Jack has gained widespread popularity within both the beauty and influencer industry alike, working alongside brands such as Gucci, Amazon, Esteè Lauder, Illamasqua and many more. Aside from amassing a social following and fantastic career, Jack is also the creator of a number of products including a palette with Makeup Revolution, and being the CEO of Tiggy Lashes.
