Ellen Page And Ian Daniel Visit Orlando For 'Gaycation' Special
Curtis M. Wong
Ellen Page and her best friend, Ian Daniel, have been exploring LGBTQ cultures around the world as the hosts of “Gaycation,” their Emmy-nominated VICELAND series. Still, nothing could have prepared the pair for the emotions they experienced when they visited the site of the June 12 mass shooting in Orlando, Florida that left 49 people dead.
That trip is the focus of the VICELAND special, “Gaycation Presents: Orlando,” which airs Aug. 24. In the preview clip above, Page and Daniel speak with survivors of the Pulse nightclub massacre and their loved ones.
“Losing so many at once, it’s almost impossible to deal with,” one woman notes in the trailer.
