1 / 55 Wentworth Miller, 2013

"Prison Break" star Wentworth Miller <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/wentworth-miller-comes-out-gay_n_3792389?utm_hp_ref=gay-voices" target="_blank">came out</a> in August 2013 after being invited to attend the St. Petersburg International Film Festival in Russia. In the midst of massive anti-gay violence and legislation throughout the country at that time, he decided it was time to go public about his sexuality. "Thank you for your kind invitation. As someone who has enjoyed visiting Russia in the past and can also claim a degree of Russian ancestry, it would make me happy to say yes," the 41-year-old wrote in a letter to the festival's director, which was posted on GLAAD's website. "However, as a gay man, I must decline."
