7. Carrie Brownstein
Member of critically acclaimed band Sleater-Kinney and star of Portlandia Carrie Brownstein was outed as bisexual by an article in Spin when she was only 21 years old. Her parents had no idea she’d ever dated women before that. Years later, a New York Times article described her as openly gay even though she herself had never told them she was. She cleared up any confusion in a 2010 article (15 years after she was outed) saying, “It’s weird, because no one’s actually ever asked me. People just always assume, like, you’re this or that. It’s like, ‘OK. I’m bisexual. Just ask.”
