In recent years, many left-wing Hollywood celebrities have comes out as "transgender," or in some cases, “non-binary,” meaning they do not align with being solely male or female.
In one case, former Disney Channel star Demi Lovato announced that she would go by gender-neutral “they/them” pronouns to align with her "non-binary" gender identity.
Shortly after, Lovato reversed course and started going by “she/her” pronouns again.
“It was absolutely exhausting,” Lovato reportedly told GQ Spain about her gender-neutral pronouns. “That is one of the reasons that have led me to also feel comfortable with the feminine pronoun ... I just got tired.”
This week, one actress announced that she’s a “a trans masculine non-binary person.”
Emma Dumont, 30, has also chosen a new name to align with her “gender identity” and will go by “they/them” pronouns.
Emma Dumont will now be known as “Nick” but will maintain “Emma” as “their” stage name.
“They identify as a trans masculine non-binary person. Their work name is still going to be Emma Dumont, but they will go by Nick with friends and family,” a representative told TMZ.
