Anna Camp has been a sought-after actor for decades, starring as the villainous Sarah Newlin in True Blood, as the melodious college student Aubrey Posen in the Pitch Perfect films, and playing twins Reagan and Maddie Lockwood in You.
This year, Camp came out and revealed that she was in a relationship with stylist Jade Whipkey. “The largest obstacle I faced this year personally was juggling the emotions about coming out in my 40s, which included guilt for not embracing it sooner and excitement for finally being free from the constraints that had been placed on me by society and my upbringing,” she says. “I overcame it through support from my friends and family and through connecting with supportive members of the queer community.
Next, she stars in Scream 7 and is excited to continue to grow. “I just want to share that it is never too late to evolve into your truest self,” she says. “Dismantling the mask of armor I had created for myself in order to navigate and survive taught me just that. I was merely surviving, not really living. And now I finally feel like I'm becoming the real Anna, thriving and alive.” @therealannacamp
