In honor of LGBTQ Pride Month in June, Nickelodeon posted a video to its YouTube channel on Friday titled “Blue’s Clues Pride Parade Sing-Along.”
The video features an animated Nina West, famous drag queen and activist, singing to the melody of “The Ants Go Marching,” except with LGBTQ inclusive lyrics.
I am so excited to help lead a Pride parade with my pal Blue! Check it out! @nickjr @Nickelodeon https://t.co/6tIWnpg1rf pic.twitter.com/u84EqCBa4e
