In a world where love is ever-evolving, it’s refreshing to see public figures embrace their identities with honesty and openness. Take Wayne Brady, for instance. In August 2023, he made a bold leap into the conversation about sexuality by coming out as pansexual. But what does that really mean? I mean, we’ve all seen folks mislabel their love lives after a couple of drinks at a party, but Wayne’s clarity stands out. He brilliantly navigated the complexities of his feelings, admitting, “I couldn’t say if I was bisexual,” as he reflected on his journey of self-discovery during an interview with People. His take on pansexuality, where attraction knows no bounds—across all gender identities—isn’t just about labels; it’s about embracing the humanity of connection. And let’s be honest, isn’t it exciting to think about? Love in all its forms is fabulously colorful! So, as Wayne shares his story, it prompts us to ask ourselves: Can love really be limitless?

In August 2023, Wayne came out as pansexual. “In doing my research, both with myself and just with the world, I couldn’t say if I was bisexual, because I had to really see what that was, especially because I really have not gotten a chance to act on anything,” he said in an interview People.
“So, 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. Being able to be attracted across the board. And, I think, at least for me for right now, that is the proper place. I took pan to mean that not only can I be attracted to any of these people or types physically, but I could be attracted to the person that is there.”
