I read advocate and out mags and others. And maybe she was profiled in one of those already but I forgot. Why is it important? Race Minorities find it extremely important for representation in any industry. Why would sexual orientation be any different? I’m not for outing someone that’s in the closet (kevin spacey for example hid it for decades), but clearly beanie is not.

I don't recall her ever saying in an interview that she was not heterosexual. I do remember Beanie and Ben Platt talking about their friendship and going to their high school prom together.

I suspect that she was never closeted. She just didn't go around shouting it to the world. At some point, perhaps after seeing Booksmart, I must have checked the Wikipedia article that said she identified as queer, a term I (personally) don't feel comfortable in using, given that it had such a disparaging connotation when I was growing up.

I agree that it's not important.
