Tyler Posey found himself in hot water on Friday after he took to Snapchat and posted a video of himself coming out as gay. In the clip, the Teen Wolf star recorded a street sign that read "Gay St." and announced, "This is me. I am this and this is me. I've never felt more alive," before turning the camera on himself and yelling, "I'm gay!" Seems harmless enough, though a source close to the actor was quick to point out to E! News [1] that "Tyler did not 'come out.'"
Hours after, the story grabbed headlines, and on Saturday, Tyler took to Twitter [2] to apologize to the LGBTQ community for his comments and clear up his sexuality in a series of tweets that read as follows:
I am a big proponent of love over hate, and standing together during divisive times.

[Part 2]: Although I'm not gay, I fully support the LGBTQ community. This was a moment intended to reflect that.

And everyone, I am truly sorry to the people I've offended or lessened how big coming out is. I just want to spread love in this world.

Get inspired by these celebrities who've used magazines, talk shows, and their blogs [6] to come out.
