Lil Nas X

Though the Grammy-winning rapper has been out as gay for years, in January, X opened up on Twitter about possibly identifying as bisexual.

"Be fr would y'all be mad at me if I thought I was a little bisexual," he tweeted.

Though he is famous for trolling and joking around on the internet, X followed up that tweet, saying, "That was my last time coming out the closet I promise."

Bella Ramsey

The actor, who shot to fame in 2023 after starring in HBO's popular and critically-acclaimed live-action adaption of The Last of Us, opened up in a January interview with The New York Times about how their gender has "always been very fluid."

"Someone would call me 'she' or 'her' and I would think about it, but I knew that if someone called me 'he' it was a bit exciting," they said, also stating they opt for the nonbinary option on a form whenever they have the opportunity. "I'm very much just a person."

"Being gendered isn't something that I particularly like," they continued, talking about being nominated for a Critics' Choice Movie Award (a gender-neutral category) for Best Young Performer. "But in terms of pronouns, I really couldn't care less."
