I'm the first-ever openly gay female in the WWE.
The thought of being the first openly gay male ever to compete in the Winter Olympics - I totally embrace that.
You can't be an openly gay movie star. You can't be an openly gay pop star, really - minus Ricky Martin.
If I don't get a TV show next year because someone looks up my Wikipedia and it says 'openly gay,' then it's worth the risk because I've had so many years being openly gay and proud of myself as a role model.
I was the first woman in WWE to ever be in a WWE Studios movie and was honored to be trusted with such an opportunity.
I have lived my life very openly and have never hidden the fact that I am gay. Apparently the prerequisite to being a gay public figure is to appear on the cover of a magazine with the caption 'I am gay.' I apologize for not doing so if this is what was expected.
Chris Smith is openly gay and I think Peter Mandelson is certainly gay.

I'm a 34-year-old NBA center. I'm black. And I'm gay. I didn't set out to be the first openly gay athlete playing in a major American team sport. But since I am, I'm happy to start the conversation.

When I went into 'Fiddler,' I wondered about the response I'd get - the backlash because I'm openly gay. There was none. I toured Canada and America, and not one single review suggested that I played the role gay or that I seemed anything but Tevye.
It's the deepest relationship between Giancarlo Giammetti and Valentino Garavani I've ever seen, and no one's ever really scratched the surface with them. They weren't really openly gay. They're in Rome, the city of the Vatican. They didn't discuss this relationship, which I think is one of the great relationships. It's beyond a marriage; it defies words. But maybe it doesn't defy pictures.
Being born gay, black, and female is not a revolutionary act. Being proud to be a gay black female is.
