45 Celebrities You May Not Know Are Part of the LGBTQ+ Community

Jameela Jamil—1986, Actress, Cisgender

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if humans could simply exist and take on projects that resonate with their personal orientation without explicitly coming out to demanding non-fans? Unfortunately, until such a universe exists, celebrities like Jamil will continue to be the subject of controversy over their lack of gayness, as it were.

The renowned activist and star of “The Good Place” revealed that she was attracted to men and women after criticism of her role on the HBO show. However, she insisted that it wasn’t how she envisioned her coming out and commented on how scary it was to openly admit her personal orientation, especially as a brown, South Asian female. Jamil voices Lady De-Clutter in the 2021 TV series “Rugrats.”
