Amber Heard Says Other LGBT Celebrities Should Come Out

While promoting her new movie, Magic Mike XXL, Amber Heard encouraged other celebrities to come out of the closet as she did five years ago.

 

Amber Heard, who came out as bisexual at a GLAAD event in 2010 and married Johnny Depp this year, told The Times of London that she wants other LGBT stars to come out.

She says that by not coming out, you are doing the LGBT community a disservice.

“I personally think that if you deny something or if you hide something you’re inadvertently admitting it’s wrong.

“I don’t want to have to deny my sexuality in order to be me. But I don’t want to have to be defined by it. I’m fundamentally opposed to trying to edit myself to be palatable or popular. I don’t give a fuck. I fight, but I shouldn’t have to.”

Heard was in a relationship with photographer, Tasya Van Ree for several years. During that time, she told the media, “I don’t label myself one way or another—I have had successful relationships with men and now a woman. I love who I love; it’s the person that matters.”
