Janelle had previously come out as pansexual in 2018, but during one episode of Red Table Talk in April, she came out as nonbinary. They employ the pronouns she/her and they/them and say, โI just donโt see myself as a woman solely. I feel all of my energy. I feel like God is so much bigger than the ‘he’ or the ‘she.’ And if I am from God, I am everything. But I will always, always stand with women. I will always stand with Black women. But I just see everything that I am, beyond the binary.โ

In an interview with Pride, he revealed that he is nonbinary. He shared, while discussing his previous portrayal as Hedwig in Hedwig and the Angry Inch, “Lately I’ve been getting a little bit of flack from some people saying only trans people can play that role because it’s a trans role. I’m not trans, I’m non-binary, but that’s a slippery slope because the character is forced into an operation and is not really trans.”

Jerrod comes out as gay in his new HBO comedy special, Rothaniel. He explained, โI was left alone feeling like a liar, because I had a secret. One that I kept from my father, my mother, my family, my friends, and you. Professionally, personally. And the secret is that Iโm gay… Iโm accepting the love; I really appreciate the love. My ego wants to rebel against it… I rebelled against it my whole life. I thought Iโd never, ever come out. At many points I thought Iโd rather die than confront the truth of that, to actually say it to people. Because I know it changes some peopleโs perceptions of me. I canโt control that.โ

Maria came out as bisexual in public after claiming she’d been spotted by a dating app when a buddy noticed her preferences. She shared, “I grew up having crushes on girls in school and just completely invalidated it because of religion and also because there were many homophobic sentiments in my school around being a lesbian, around anything other than heteronormativity. You donโt have a lot of bisexual visibility in popular culture and so you donโt understand what it is.โ

Jessica said in an interview with People that she had always identified as a heterosexual, cisgender woman before the outbreak in March 2020. “When the pandemic hit, I was at the peak of all this self-discovery and exploration. The shutdown really knocked the wind out of me. It wasn’t about changing identities, rather expanding my identity.” This past Christmas, she revealed her relationship with Chelsea Nachman on IG, and in February spoke publically about her sexuality for the first time.

Jasmine revealed she was transgender in an episode of Untucked. She shared that it was her co-stars who encouraged her to come out: โBefore coming [to Drag Race], I was about to start hormones. And coming here, I was scared and didnโt want to have to go through that process. Seeing Kerri [Colby], seeing how confident she is in who she is, it just further affirmed what Iโve been feeling my whole life. So I, as well, definitely do feel like I am trans. And Iโve been so scared to say that; Iโve held back from that for so long because I didnโt want to hurt my dad. But I canโt lie about it anymore. I am trans.โ
โYou owe it to yourself to be happy, and to live your life as the human being that you want to be.โ ๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธ
So proud of @JasmineKennedie for finding the courage to share her journey, and major props to @KerriColby, @hereisbosco, & @kornbreadTMFS for inspiring us all season long! ๐ pic.twitter.com/jPjWWteTuP

She revealed, โIโm still not sure where I fit on the spectrum, for now I just say trans femme, but I also donโt have to know now…I want to share this because I have felt so lonely keeping this to myself. I have been rarely able to talk to other people with similar stories, though I know there are many out there. I’m so tired of holding my pain in, and if I’m sharing dark bath bomb jokes and my ass cheeks to the TV world, then I also want to share this.”
