Is NBC’S Bunny an LGBT Role Model?

Identifies Amber Heard as making contradictory statements

Heard came out at GLAAD’s 25th Anniversary Event in 2010, when she identified her partner as Hawaiian photographer Tasya van Ree.

Soon after, Heard told AfterEllen.com, “I think GLAAD is one of the many reasons that I, as a 24-year-old, can come out… the injustice of people staying in the closet is more than I can bear with a clear conscience, and I couldn’t sleep at night if I was a part of that problem, if I was part of the lies.”

This August, Heard made another admirable, if contradictory, statement in an interview with Playboy.com. “First of all, to say I came out implies that I was once in. Let me be straight about that—no pun intended [laughs]—I never came out from anywhere… When it comes to love I am totally open.”
