In 2012, the singer opened up to GQ about an open letter he posted to Twitter describing his first love with a man. He told the publication, “Whatever I said in that letter, before I posted it, seemed so huge.

In an August 2020 interview with Flaunt Magazine, the Riverdale star says she always knew about her bisexuality, but was afraid of becoming a media spectacle for only being in relationships with the opposite sex.

“I felt that since I’ve exclusively been in heteronormative relationships, it would be too easy for any outsider, especially the media, to vilify me and accuse me of faking it to get attention,” she told the publication. “That’s not something I wanted to deal with. But to my close friends, and those in my life, my bisexuality has been no secret.”

In a 2020 interview with Andy Cohen for his radio show Radio Andy, the singer opened up about how she came out as bisexual to her parents, who were supportive of her sexuality.

“I didn’t officially tell my parents that I saw myself ending up possibly with a woman until 2017,” she told Cohen. “It was actually emotional, but really beautiful. After everything was done, I was like shaking and crying. I just felt overwhelmed. I have such incredible parents. They were so supportive.”

In a 2011 interview with Esquire, the Transformers star talked about the pressures of being bisexual in a rigid society.

In an exclusive September 2020 interview with Tamron Hall, the former mayor of Tallahassee revealed for the first time publicly that he identifies as a bisexual man.

““You didn’t ask the question, you put it out there of whether I identify as gay. The answer is I don’t identify as gay but I do identify as bisexual,” he said. “And that is something that I’ve never shared publicly before.”

When the actress opened up to Entertainment Weekly about her sexuality in 2013, she said “I am too f**king curious to sit here and not try when I can. Men are intriguing. So are chicks.”

In a 1995 interview with The Advocate, the Green Day frontman opened up about his bisexuality, saying “I think people are born bisexual, and it’s just that our parents and society kind of veer us off into this feeling of ‘Oh, I can’t.’ They say it’s taboo. It’s ingrained in our heads that it’s bad, when it’s not bad at all. It’s a very beautiful thing.”

In April 2019, Blackburn revealed to The Advocate how he’s known about being bisexual since adolescence.

In a 2016 post to Instagram, the former Flash star opened up about how to fight the stigma of being bisexual, telling his followers, “If you think you could be bi, ask yourself what is holding you back from accepting it.

In an open letter to GQ back in June 2018, the Brooklyn 99 actress opened up why marrying a man doesn’t make her any less bisexual.

“I’m bi, and I’m getting married this fall. I’m excited, nervous, terrified, and so fucking happy,” she wrote. “I’m choosing to get married because this particular person brings out the best in me. This person happens to be a man. I’m still bi.”

On a June 2019 episode of Red Table Talk, Smith came out as bisexual to mother Jada Pinkett Smith, saying how she’d actually prefer to be in a throuple.

In an interview with the Washington Post back in 2016, the comedian said, “Just because I’ve been with guys and I’m bi doesn’t mean I’m gay.”

While the actress always knew she was bisexual, she didn’t reveal it to the world until she stepped out with former girlfriend Tasya van Ree back in 2010.

“When I hear someone comment about me coming out, I think it’s funny because I was never in,” she said at the Economist’s Pride & Prejudice Summer in 2010, according to People. “In part because I was very stubborn, I guess, and also in part because I just didn’t feel it was wrong.”

After being criticized for her portrayal of bisexual women in her single “Girls,” Ora responded by coming out as bisexual herself.

In 2017, the “I Want Candy” singer revealed to his fans over Twitter he was attracted to both men and women.

“I’m married to a man, but I’m bisexual so I like both,” she said.

When the Walking Dead star opened up to People about his bisexuality in 2017, he hoped his reveal would inspire LGBTQ youth to do the same.

“I don’t want to be hidden and have to dodge the question,” he told the publication. “I’m proud of who I am.”

In a 2016 interview with The Advocate, the Parks and Recreation star was very open to discussing her own views on bisexuality.

“I know I have an androgynous thing going on, and there’s something masculine about my energy,” she said to the publication. “Girls are into me—that’s no secret. Hey, I’m into them too. I fall in love with girls and guys. I can’t help it.”

When the “I’m Yours” singer wrote “I’m bi your side” in a poem for Billboard.com back in 2018, fans immediately began wondering of his sexuality. He responded with, “Honestly, I didn’t realize it was going to be so telling. But I’ve had experiences with men, even while I was dating the woman who became my wife.”

The Grey’s Anatomy star came out as bisexual in 2016 at the True Colors Fund’s 40 to None Summit.

“Because of the intersections that exist in my own life: woman, multi-racial woman, woman of color, queer, bisexual, Mexican-Irish American, immigrant, and raised by families heavily rooted in Catholicism on both my Mexican and Irish sides, I am deeply invested in projects that allow our youth’s voices to be heard,” Ramirez said.

In his 2019 HBO Special Home Videos, the comedian insinuated that he is attracted to both men and women.

At Nashville Pride back in 2010, the “A Thousand Miles” singer came out as bisexual to her fans while performing onstage.

“I’ve never said this before but, while we’re here and living out loud as we should every single day, I, myself, am a proud bisexual woman,” she told her audience.

When he spoke about his bisexuality to The Advocate back in 2015, he told the publication, “My sexuality has never been black and white; it’s always been gray. I’m with a man, but I haven’t closed myself off to the fact that I’m still sexually attracted to women.”

In an interview with The Daily Beast in 2012, the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them star opened up about his bisexuality, saying “The way I would choose to identify myself wouldn’t be gay. I’ve been attracted mostly to ‘shes’ but I’ve been with many people and I’m open to love wherever it can be found.”

While promoting Maleficent: Mistress of Evil in 2019, she revealed to co-star Michelle Pfeiffer that she had a celebrity crush on her when she was a teenager.

She also told OK Magazine in 2003,“I have loved women in the past and slept with them. I think if you love and want to pleasure a woman, particularly if you are a woman yourself, then certainly you know how to do things a certain way.”

The Borgias star used his IG stories to come out to his followers in alliance for Bisexual Awareness Week in September 2020.

“Silence has the perverse effect of perpetuating those stereotypes, making bi guys invisible, and leading people to doubt we even exist,” he wrote. “No wonder it’s still a chore to acknowledge bisexuality without getting into lengthy explanations.”
