" I guess you could stipulate me as pansexual because I really do n’t care . If a person is great , then a person is bang-up . "
For those who don’t know, “pansexuality” is when someone is attracted to a person regardless of their gender identity.
GLAADsays, “While beingbisexualmeans being attracted to more than one gender, being pansexual means being attracted to all gender identities, or attracted to people regardless of gender.”
There are quite a few pan celebs, and here are 25 of them:
1.Bella Thorne
ShetoldABC News what pansexual means to her in 2019: “You like beings. You like what you like. It doesn’t have to be a girl, or a guy, or…you know, a he, a she, a this, or that. It’s literally, you like personality, like you just like a being.”
2.Gigi Gorgeous
Gigicame outas pansexual on YouTube in 2021: “Over the years, I’ve realized that I didn’t fall in love with Nats because of his gender. I fell in love with the person that he is. I just want to let everybody know that I am pansexual. I’d heard that term before, I knew a few friends that identified as that. It never really stuck with me, I never really got it.”
3.Brooke Candy
She toldHunger, “I’m a feminist, I’m young, and I’m gay (though I’ve now come to the conclusion that I feel more pansexual).”
4.Brendon Urie
HetoldPaper Magazine, “I guess you could qualify me as pansexual because I really don’t care. If a person is great, then a person is great. […] I guess this is me coming out as pansexual.”
5.Cara Delevingne
ShetoldVariety, “I always will remain, I think, pansexual. However one defines themselves, whether it’s ‘they’ or ‘he’ or ‘she,’ I fall in love with the person — and that’s that. I’m attracted to the person.”
6.Miley Cyrus
She toldVarietyabout how she realized she was pansexual: “I think when I figured out what it was. I went to the LGBTQ center here in LA, and I started hearing these stories. I saw one human in particular who didn’t identify as male or female. Looking at them, they were both: beautiful and sexy and tough but vulnerable and feminine but masculine. And I related to that person more than I related to anyone in my life. Even though I may seem very different, people may not see me as neutral as I feel. But I feel very neutral. I think that was the first gender-neutral person I’d ever met. Once I understood my gender more, which was unassigned, then I understood my sexuality more. I was like, ‘Oh — that’s why I don’t feel straight and I don’t feel gay. It’s because I’m not.'”
7.Demi Lovato
ShetoldJoe Rogan in 2021 that she identified as pansexual. “I’m so fluid now, and a part of the reason why I am so fluid is because I was super closeted off.”
8.JoJo Siwa
ShetoldPeople in 2021, “Technically, I would say that I am pansexual because that’s how I have always been my whole life is just, like, my human is my human.”
9.Tess Holliday
ShetoldNylon that when a guy at a bar in Mexico asked her if she was bi, Tess said, “Thank you so much for asking. I’ve been thinking a lot about my relationship to my own queerness, and I think the word pansexual speaks to me more than bi does.” The guy at the bar thensaid, “Thank you for telling me about that, but actually, I said, Are you buying?'”
10.ROES who was formerly known as Angel Haze

11.Janelle Monáe

20.Joe Lycett
“Gender is fluid, and I think it’s absolutely fascinating, so I talk about that a little bit in my show. I think it’s important some people do publicly go, ‘Hey, I’m not straight and I’m not gay. I’m somewhere in the middle and that’s OK,” hesaid.
21.Rina Sawayama
She toldVice, “For me there’s still a lack of representation. I just think the reason I wasn’t so comfortable with my sexuality was because there was no one on TV or anywhere that I could point to and go, ‘Look mom! This person is what I was talking about!’”
22.Yungblud
He toldAttitudethat he identifies as pansexual and polyamorous. “I probably would say now, I am polyamorous. Before I didn’t fucking know what I was.

23.Mae Whitman
Mae wrote about being pansexual on Twitter:
Just require a import to say I am SO proud to be even a small part of a show like The Owl House . Being pansexual myself , I wish I had such unbelievable case like Amity and Luz in my life when I was growing up . odd representation is sososo authoritative : , ) keep it up world!#TOHpic.twitter.com / B3C71c24aN
24.Nico Tortorella

I’m not going to be the person that’s like, ‘No, I need a ‘P,’ I need another letter!’ I stand by people that have paved this way for somebody like me.”
25.And last but not least, Kesha
She hasn’t outright said she’s pan, but she toldSeventeen: “I don’t lovejustmen. I love people. It’s not about a gender. It’s just about the spirit that exudes from that other person you’re with.”
