Gay actors: list with photos, Russian and foreign

Representatives of sexual minorities have been silent about themselves and their preferences for too long. Even in the age of modern loyalty, stars representing sexual minorities prefer not to admit that they are falling in love with members of the same gender. The main reasons are the fear of scaring away fans, the negativity from colleagues in the shop and the fear that this will badly affect their future careers. Here is a list with photos of gay actors and actresses. Many viewers couldn't imagine these stars were gay until they came out.

Andrew Scott

• "A real comedy"
• «1917»
• "Dark beginnings".

The actor is familiar to Russian viewers first of all for the role of the main antagonist in the acclaimed TV series "Sherlock" with Benedict Cumberbatch. For a long time, the handsome Briton preferred not to expose his personal life. He avoided incorrect questions and smiled languidly at his fans. He came out only in 2013, suggesting that homosexuality is as much an individual trait as kindness or talent. Andrew Scott believes that in a person you must first of all see the personality, and then only his sexual identity.

One Land Byron

• "Spiral"
• "Trinity"
• "Capital of Sin".

One Byron fell in love with domestic audiences for the role of Phil Richards in Interns. He never hid the fact that he is a homosexual from his loved ones. That is why, when his colleagues on the Russian TV series reacted extremely negatively when they learned that he was gay, Byron was very upset. Ivan Okhlobystin especially distinguished himself, who, with his characteristic eloquence, declared that representatives of sexual minorities should be burned at the stake. This was the last straw for Odin, and he made a public coming out.

Luke Evans

• "Swords crossed" "
• "Anna"
• "The beauty and the Beast".

Luke Evans is one of the stars who have long revealed all the cards and do not hide anything. He made his recognition back in 2002. Luke believes that sex and relationships are a private matter for everyone, and public opinion should not influence people's preferences. His coming out did not affect his career in any way. Imagine the surprise of the public when rumors periodically began to circulate about Evans' romances with women, but this is a completely different story.

• Jeremiah Terminator LeRoy
• Lizzie Borden's Revenge.

At some point, the young actress was simply tired of playing in public and for the public and stopped hiding that she was a lesbian.

• "Ordinary Heart"
• "Gardener of Eden"
• "Hollywood".

Everyone who has watched at least one episode of The Big Bang Theory or Sheldon's Childhood knows Jim Parsons. He had to hide his homosexuality for many years.
