9. Ryan Beatty
Another celeb who came out in 2016 was singer Ryan Beatty. The 20-year-old became famous thanks to his stellar YouTube videos that showed off his vocal talent and charming good looks. Beatty then began to break out into the public sphere and could be one of the next great male solo artists. A few months ago, Beatty used social media (fittingly enough, since that’s where he achieved fame) to tell his fans that he was gay. His Instagram post included the words “raging homosexual” and “gay power.” Beatty stated that it took him two decades to come to terms with his sexuality, but now he is “comfortable enough to say it” and “can finally breathe.” The singer also took to the Twitterverse and Tweeted: “i’m so happy i’m gay” and he also thanked his friends and family for their support. The announcement came right before the release of his single, “Passion.”
