dec 15, 2011 - TELEGRAPH Lesbian actress Amber Heard attacks Hollywood’s gay 'liars’

Description:

Amber Heard, the star of the film The Rum Diary, criticises Hollywood actors who hide their homosexuality.

One of Hollywood’s few openly homosexual actresses, Amber Heard criticises those stars who remain in the closet.

“You can’t respect yourself if you’re afraid to be who you are,” says Heard, 25, who appears opposite Johnny Depp in his latest film, The Rum Diary.

“It requires bravery to do something no one else around you is doing, but the risk was outweighed by the possibility of playing into this horribly detrimental lie that some in Hollywood perpetuate.”
