Supernatural star Misha Collins clarified that he didn’t come out: ‘I Am Not Bisexual‘. When speaking at Creation Entertainment’s Supernatural Offical Convention in Secaucus, NJ, Collins was asked by fans how many of you would consider yourself introverts? Collins asked the crowd in a video that was captured and shared by fans on Twitter. How many extroverts? And how many bisexuals?
Collins waved his hand and told, “I’m all three.” Collins then moved on from the subject and has yet to further confirm this as a coming out. Read his statement below.
I want to deeply apologize for misspeaking this weekend. At a fan convention in New Jersey, when I was talking with the audience I said that I was “all three” things: an introvert, an extrovert and a bisexual. My clumsy intention was to wave off actually discussing my sexuality, but I badly fumbled that and understand that was seen as me coming out as bisexual. he added This was not my intention so I need to correct the record: I am not bisexual. I happen to be straight, but I am also a fierce ally and the last thing I want to do is falsely co-opt the struggles of the LGBTQIA+ community.
I believe and fully support that we need to sanctify the human right to express our identities honestly and to be free to love whomever we choose openly. I am deeply sorry for the clumsiness of my language. I want to be a better ally and I feel sick to my stomach that I might have done anything to make things worse. I’m trying to learn, trying to do better and I will keep listening.
Thanks and I’m sorry.
