Kim Cattrall received the Golden Gate Award at the 22nd Annual GLAAD Media Awards ceremony on Saturday, May 14, at the San Francisco Marriott Marquis. The award is presented to media professionals who, through their work, have increased the visibility and understanding of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.

Glee star Naya Rivera hosted the event, while special guests included Broadway veterans Mario Lopez — who presented the Outstanding Spanish-Language Music Artist award to Christian Chávez — and Sara Ramirez.

At the ceremony, awards were also presented to The Kids Are All Right for Outstanding Film – Wide Release; 8: The Mormon Proposition for Outstanding Documentary; and openly lesbian tech writer Kara Swisher, who received the Local Hero Award. The awards were sponsored by ROKK.
