Haaz Sleiman of Nurse Jackie proudly came out as gay in a candid Facebook video Saturday.

The 41-year-old actor proclaimed 'I am a gay, Muslim, Arab-American man' in the social media clip, while also offering a cheeky TMI tidbit about his life saying 'Not only am I gay, but I’m also a bottom.'

The Lebanon-born talent's announcement comes a full eight years after he told The Advocate that he identified as straight during a 2009 interview.

'I am a gay, Muslim, Arab-American man:' Haaz Sleiman of Nurse Jackie proudly came out as gay in a candid Facebook video Saturday

Haaz, who was the out and proud character 'Mo-Mo' De La Cruz in the beloved Showtime series, said he was inspired to go public after learning that more LGBTQ Americans have already been killed this year than the whole of 2016.

He wasn't playing straight in the clip, where he said 'I am a gay, Muslim, Arab-American man.'

The Wayne State University alum continued, offering a blushworthy description of his preferences: 'And I’m going to take it even further: Not only am I gay, but I’m also a bottom.

He dialed up the sass, adding 'Not only am I a bottom, but I’m also a total bottom which means I like it up you know where.'

Haaz wasn't afraid to offer his opinion to bigots and haters.

Not mincing words: Haaz (above in 2015) wasn't afraid to offer his opinion to bigots and haters, saying If you ever come to me, to kill me just because I’m gay… I will destroy you'

'And I say this to all the homophobes living in the United States of America and across the globe… Why not? If you ever come to me, to kill me just because I’m gay… I will destroy you.'

'I might be gay and I might be a nice guy, but don’t get it twisted because I will f*** you up,' he finished.

The Covert Affairs actor also explained how he ended up calling himself straight while talking to The Advocate almost a decade ago.

TMI! The Wayne State University alum also offered a blushworthy description of his preferences dishing 'Not only am I gay, but I’m also a bottom'

'I told Showtime only on one condition, no personal questions. The Advocate agreed,' he wrote on social media.

But the LGBT mag didn't hold up their end of the bargain.

'At the end of the half hour interview over the phone the idiot interviewer, whom I think was gay, asked me if was gay or straight (no personal questions)…

Blindsided by the question, Haaz blurted out his answer without thinking.

'I froze:' The Covert Affairs actor (above in 2015) also explained how he ended up calling himself straight while talking to The Advocate almost a decade ago, saying he was blindsided by the question after the magazine agreed to not ask anything 'personal'

'I was so shocked. I froze. My body started shaking. And then I lied and said I was straight. Shame on gay people who are not kind to other gay people. He did that on purpose.'

In addition to his work on Jackie, Sleiman has enjoyed a host of other compelling projects.

In 2007 he earned an independent Spirit nomination for his role in The Visitor.

Most recently, Raaz played Dr. Rabia in The State, a Channel 4 mini-series about British citizens who join ISIS in Syria.
