The fight against gender and orientation stereotypes is far from over, even in a progressive space like Hollywood. But, there is now a newer generation of celebrities who are out and proud and giving a voice to queer issues and speaking up against discrimination. Here's a look at them.

While she faced a lot of discrimination she also became the first woman to come out on a US network television show and simultaneously on the cover of Time Magazine.

Initially, the comedian faced huge criticism and her show was cancelled. People announced that her career was over. However, in 2001 she made an equally big statement by becoming a host of a major talk show and reclaiming her space in American television.

In her interview with People DeGeneres said, "So, it's been 25 years since my coming-out episode, and the only time I'm in the closet now is when Portia and I play hide and seek ... I think about what the next 25 years will bring, and I hope that we keep evolving. I hope, like a little tiny egg that turns into a caterpillar that then turns into a cocoon that eventually, emerges and spreads its big gay butterfly wings".

However, in 2019, Kristen and her girlfriend Dylan made it Instagram official.
