Gay fake celebrities

Real celebrities use exclusive dating apps or meet people through their professional networks.

If you encounter a celebrity profile on a mainstream dating app, it’s almost certainly fake. Harry is known for his inclusive music, androgynous style, and avoidance of labeling his sexuality.

Harry is the most vocal against these accusations, stating in an interview with The Guardian, "Am I sprinkling in nuggets of sexual ambiguity to try and be more interesting?

Along with Connor, actors, musicians and online personalities are regularly accused of it: Shawn Mendes, Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Timothee Chalamet and Yungblud have had the accusation recently levelled at them. Harry Styles can’t even sneeze in a slightly flamboyant way without having the accusation levelled at him.

Considering the consequences – a young man forced to out himself – it may seem like “queerbaiting” has become a weaponised term, used online to police celebrities’ sexuality.

Stay informed. Is their presence detrimental to the LGBTQ+ community, and are these claims valid? It's complicated!

Here are 10 celebrities accused of queerbaiting and how they responded to the allegations.

1.One of the biggest celebrities dominating the conversation around queerbaiting is Harry Styles. But, in the 2003 documentary, Screaming for More, the duo revealed they are straight and were marketed as queer women for their musical act.

"That was my role.

I never was attracted to a girl. Dr McCann raises the  the Taylor Swift fandom as an example, where the “Gaylor” faction (fans dedicated to queer readings of her songs) would butt heads with the straight “Hetlor” faction. Then they use these images to build fake relationships with victims.

The numbers are staggering. When people send me something mean, it hurts my soul."

According to Complex, people also accused Ariana of exploiting the queer community when she headlined the Manchester Pride festival in 2019 and doubled ticket prices.

Ariana swiftly responded, "The LGBTQ+ community has been so special to me and supportive throughout my entire career.

Being out and proud is a choice that many people make, but shouldn’t be seen as being more valid or worthwhile than anyone who doesn’t choose that path. According to FTC data, 40% of romance scam victims first encountered scammers on social media platforms.

Step 2: Moving Off Platform
Quick migration to private messaging.

congrats for forcing an 18 year old to out himself,” tweetedHeartstopperactor Kit Connor on Monday, coming back to the app after deactivating his account due to a storm of scrutiny from his fans and the media around his sexuality.

Connor played the role of Nick Nelson in Heartstopper, a young school boy sorting through his feelings for his friend Charlie, and ultimately discovering that he himself is bisexual.

And celebrity impersonation scams are a huge part of this problem.

But here’s what’s really scary. "I had some thoughts because I was pretending to be who I wasn't. I think it's unfortunate that some people have to find a negative in every situation. Essentially, queerbaiting is the tactic of media creators deliberately hinting at, or touting, LGBTQ representation to entice viewers and gain their investment, without ever actually following through.

I'm 100 million per cent straight.'
