A reporter on Des Moines-area news channel WOI-TV came out as transgender in an Oct. 4 interview that introduced her all over again to viewers, starting with her name: Nora J.S. Reichardt. "Reichardt has been a reporter at the station for about a year, appearing on TV screens across central Iowa under a different name as she sorted out how to be an on-air journalist and her true self ― a transgender woman," the Des Moines Register reported. The article went on to transcribe Reichardt's poignant following words, which she addressed directly to viewers in a video essay: "I didn't know if there was a place and a space for me to do this sort of work that I've really come to love and enjoy, while also getting to be myself." In the news clips, the text of which WeAreIowa posted online, Reichardt said that now that she's living and identifying publicly as a woman, she is "feeling more and more at home in my body than I really ever did before," and described a life-long sense that she was "a person who's wearing my body, and not a person who's living in it." "And I've had those feelings almost as long as I can remember," Reichardt went on to add.⁠ ⁠ Tap link in bio for more on @EDGEmedianetwork ⁠ ???️‍⚧️

During his career, professional handball player @lucaskrzikalla has played 192 games and scored 485 goals in the top division of Germany's team handball Bundesliga. He's known as a scoring threat who was termed by his team's head coach as "one of our strongest players, athletically and emotionally," reports Outsports. This week he made an important personal announcement: He came out as gay, making him "the only team athlete in Germany's professional leagues," writes the German website MDR. He had previously come out to his family and friends. The 28-year-old Krzikalla came out as gay in an interview with the German newspaper Welt Am Sonntag, and was profiled in a short film. broadcasted by Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk. "Today I can say it very clearly here: I'm gay, I have a boyfriend whom I love, and I'm very happy about it," he said in the Welt Am Sonntag interview. "I've been thinking about this for a year: Why not just take that step and say you're gay? How much longer will the constant deception, the lying, and for whom anyway? There will always be idiots who say stupid things. I want to stand for what I do and not be defined by my sexuality." The athlete introduced his boyfriend Chris to his teammates and management. "Our manager asked me where Chris and I met. After that we hugged," Krzikalla recalled. "I was really happy that Chris was so warmly received. Back then, last fall, we decided we would be open as a couple. Then I thought, I can make it official. I just didn't really know how."⁠ ⁠ Tap link in bio for more on @EDGEmedianetwork ⁠ ????

It's been seven years since Frank Ocean has graced us with a new album — but fans might be in luck. The out singer released his critically loved album "Blonde" back in 2016 — along with the experimental "Endless" — but has mostly been absent since. In the last few years, he's shared one-off singles, including "DHL" and "In My Room." In 2020 he dropped "Dear April" and "Cayendo." Fans are in a frenzy this week, however, because Ocean cleared out his Instagram, scrubbing all of the posts except for his profile pic — a sign usually meaning that a pop star is ready to launch a new era with new music. Billboard noted that a new album would be perfect timing for Ocean's upcoming Coachella-headlining gig next year. He was supposed to headline the music festival in 2020 but it was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The "Pyramids" singer was in the headlines earlier this year when his legacy brand Homer released a new collection of accessories, including a diamond-encrusted 18-karat gold cock ring that costs over $25,000.⁠ ⁠ Tap link in bio for more on @EDGEmedianetwork ⁠ ?️‍??❤️

@harrystyles already has an enviable acting resume for a newcomer, from Christopher Nolan's "Dunkirk" to the upcoming "Don't Worry Darling" and "My Policeman." But the pop star said Monday at the Venice International Film Festival that, with acting, he often feels as if he has "no idea what I'm doing." "I think it's fun to get to play in worlds that aren't necessarily your own. This world that is supposedly so perfect, it's really fun to play pretend in there," Styles said. "There wasn't too much acting." On the parallels between music and acting: "Personally I find them to be kind of opposite in a lot of ways. I think making music is a really personal thing," Styles said. "There's aspects of acting where you're drawing from experiences you've had but for the most part you're pretending to play someone else. I think that's what I find the most fun about it: playing pretend."⁠ ⁠ Tap for more from Harry Styles from Venice on @EDGEmedianetwork ⁠ ?️‍????❤️⁠ ?: @harrystyles

Two years after @theweeknd postponed — and ultimately cancelled — his "After Hours Tour," he's finally out on the road with his stadium spectacular "After Hours til Dawn Tour." And good lord, was it worth the wait. It's hard to imagine that The Weeknd could possibly get any bigger than he is now. But as he's demonstrated time and time again, he manages to outdo himself with each new era, phase, and album. He's one of the greatest and most brilliant minds in the business today, and "After Hours til Dawn" is the blinding embodiment of that.⁠ ⁠ Tap link in bio to read more of EDGE's concert review on @EDGEmedianetwork⁠ ???⁠ ?: @theweeknd

YouTuber @adambyt has come out as gay and shared his news in an emotional video for fans. The Internet personality, whose full name is Adam Beales, has a career as a TV host, having been a former co-presenter on "Blue Peter" and other CBBC shows including "The Dog Ate My Homework." "His YouTube channel boasts a legion of fans, with the 22-year-old's subscriber count sitting at a mighty 3.42million," writes the Metro. Ahead of uploading his coming out video, the TV star admitted to feeling 'the most vulnerable I've felt in a really long time', but said he now also feels the 'best' he's ever felt. Beale started his 9-minute video with, "I'm gay. I've said it. I've finally told you something I've meant to tell you for a long time." He praised his family — his mother, father and younger brother Adam who are seen in the video — for being supportive. "One thing I love about these guys is that when I told them, nothing changed, and that's the best feeling ever. To be able to love life, to wake up in the morning and feel like nothing's changed," he said.⁠ ⁠ Tap link in bio to continue on @EDGEmedianetwork⁠ ?️‍??????⁠ ?: @adambyt
