X-Men star Troye Sivan comes out on YouTube

Actor who plays young Logan in Origins: Wolverine shares his truth

“It feels kind of weird to have to announce it like this on the internet, but I feel like a lot of you guys are like real, genuine friends of mine and I share everything with the internet. Whether or not that’s a good thing I don’t know, but this is not something that I’m ashamed of and it’s not something that anyone should have to be ashamed of, so why not share it with you guys?” says Origins: Wolverine star Troye Sivan in his coming-out video on YouTube. “I’m terrified. I know that some people are going to have a problem with this. This could kind of change everything for me, but it shouldn’t have to. And that’s why I’m making this video, and that’s why I think it’s important for people to make these kinds of videos.”
