Let’s Make a Deal host addressed his sexuality in a new interview with People published on Monday evening.“I am pansexual,” he told the outlet, before adding, “bisexual–with an open mind!”“I came to pansexual because — and I know that I’m completely messing up the dictionary meaning —but to me, pan means being able to be attracted to anyone who identifies as gay, straight, bi, transsexual or non-binary,” he said. “Being able to be attracted across the board.
And, I think, at least for me for right now, that is the proper place.”Brady has been married twice, both times to women. He elaborated on the internal struggle he felt his entire life and how homophobia kept him from being able to live authentically.A post shared by Wayne Brady (@mrbradybaby)“Let’s be really honest: I’ve also been attracted to certain men in my life, but I’ve always pushed that aside because of how I was raised, and because I live in today’s world, and it’s scary as sh*t,” the Whose Line Is It Anyway star noted. “What’s the fastest way to hurt another man?
I’m gonna call you out of your name. I’m gonna call you gay. I’m gonna emasculate you. I’m gonna use the F-word. I learned that very early from the people around me, they’re like, ‘Oh, so those are bad things?
Yeah. You, you don’t wanna be that.'”He continued: “So, what does it mean if I feel something? I don’t think I’m gay, but what if I feel something for another [man]… That’s still gay.
