New York City Mayor Eric Adams was hoping to enjoy the opening night of Paradise Square on Broadway but wound up with drama of his own as angry parents shouted him down during a photo-op.
A seemingly unphased Adams can be seen in video footage smiling for pictures while several voices chant, “Unmask our kids!”
“Why do you get to take your mask off but the kids don’t?” one woman asked. “Why do you get to take your mask off? Who the f*** are you?”
“How much is it going to cost?” a man yelled.

“I am the mayor of New York City, but I have a message for Florida’s LGBTQ+ community: Come to a city where you can say and be whoever you want,” Adams said. “Florida’s ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill is the latest shameful, extremist culture war targeting the LGBTQ+ community. Today, we say to the families living in fear of this state-sponsored discrimination that you will always have a home in New York City.”
