9. MUSIC: Ultraviolence, Lana Del Rey
Available Tuesday, Lana Del Rey's Ultraviolence is another hauntingly beautiful serving of the singer-songwriter's unforgettable sound. A follow-up to her 2012 breakthrough, Born to Die, Del Rey's latest effort is a hypnotic collection of tracks including the ethereal "Shades of Cool," the dark-tempered "West Coast," and the disarming "Brooklyn Baby."

8. THEATER: The Trial of Oscar Wilde
In the season of pride, immerse yourself in gay history with this "theatrical concert" focusing on the great writer's trial on charges of "gross indecency." James Melo's script draws on trial transcripts, Wilde's literary works, and his love letters to Lord Alfred Douglas, and it's set to chamber music from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, including Chausson's Concerto for violin, piano, and string quartet, and works by Satie, Elgar, Faure, and Franck, performed by the Amphion String Quartet, violinist Susie Park, pianist Max Barros, and a barbershop quartet. Michael Halling stars as Wilde and Robert Ian Mackenzie as his nemesis, the Marquis of Queensberry. Presented by the Ensemble for the Romantic Century at New York City's Symphony Space for four performances only, beginning Thursday. Order tickets here. - Trudy Ring

7. FILM: 22 Jump Street
Jonah Hill, one of the stars of 22 Jump Street, made headlines last week when he shouted an antigay slur at a paparazzo. The actor apologized multiple times for the incident, telling talk show host Jimmy Fallon, "Words have weight and meaning, and the word I chose was grotesque. No one deserves to say or hear words like that." For his heartfelt apology (as well as his X-rated bet that he would kiss the penis of his studly costar Channing Tatum if the original film did well at the box office), The Advocate recommends 22 Jump Street, a bromance about two undercover cops on a college campus. Below, check out the trailer for the movie, which opens in theaters this weekend. - Daniel Reynolds

6. EVENT: Boston and Oregon Pride

No matter which coast you're on, Pride Month continues with some epic festivals this weekend.

Boston has been showing off its Pride all week, embracing this year's theme of "Be Yourself, Change the World." Saturday's annual Pride Parade steps off at 11 a.m., with Gov. Deval Patrick and the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence serving as grand marshals, followed by more than 200 groups proudly marching in the streets, with thousands expected to attend the festival. The city's Pride is evident even on its crosswalks -- two of which have been painted in rainbow colors for the celebration. Get all the info, including festival schedules and party details, right here.

Portland, Ore., celebrates all the colors of the rainbow with Pride Northwest, taking over downtown Portland starting at noon Saturday. The two-day festival at Tom McCall Waterfront Park asks for a $7 donation upon entry but promises no one will be turned away because of inability to pay. With marriage equality newly the law in the Evergreen State, the celebrations are sure to be especially joyful this year. Portland's parade, led by grand marshal Daniel Franzese, steps off at 11 a.m. Sunday. Find more information at PrideNW.org. - Sunnivie Brydum

5. FILM: Love Is All You Need
In the world of this short film, to be gay is the societal norm, while to be heterosexual is to face ridicule and persecution. This flipping of the anti-LGBT bullying script has proved to be a powerful message, and the short has won more than 30 awards and had over 30 million viewings on various platforms since its release in 2011. Now writer-director Kim Rocco Shields hopes to turn it into a feature film and is raising funds via Indiegogo. The project has the support of the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network, marking the first time it has partnered with a production company. Watch the campaign trailer and the full short film below. The campaign runs through July 2; find out more here. - Trudy Ring

3. MUSIC: In the Lonely Hour, Sam Smith
In the Lonely Hour, the eagerly anticipated debut album from newly out British crooner Sam Smith, finally lands Tuesday. Smith spent the previous year building a wave of momentum with several collaborations, cameos, and critical accolades in the U.K., and now the singer-songwriter's falsetto-fueled collection is an emotional journey that ranges from the driving "Money on My Mind" to the soulful "Stay With Me" and through the heart-wrenching "Not That Way." - Jase Peeples
