In the Family Room with Gloria Estefan

Gloria Estefan has been a muse to the queer community for decades, with disco beats made for the club and looks that have inspired drag queens. Sam chats with her about life before stardom, how music was a respite to her after escaping Cuba as a kid, and how queer culture was ingrained in her upbringing. Gloria also shares how she’s still learning to be a true ally to her daughter Emily, who came out in 2017.
