Wayne Brady Opens Up About Life After Coming Out: "I'm the Happiest I've Ever Been!"


Wayne Brady is embracing life to the fullest nearly two years after coming out as pansexual. The Emmy-winning entertainer, known for his quick wit and smooth charm, recently attended the 67th Grammy Awards, where he reflected on his journey and the misconceptions people had about him after sharing his truth.

Living Authentically

Brady, 52, says the best part of living authentically is the freedom it brings. "The best part of living in your truth is that it's no work!" he told PRIDE. He laughed at assumptions that he would suddenly be dating multiple people or living a wild nightlife. "No! The truth is me. Now, I'm free to do any of those things if I want to. That’s the best part."

A Message to the LGBTQ+ Community

Brady also had powerful words for LGBTQ+ individuals, especially those struggling with fear and anxiety. "Find your people. Be with your tribe," he advised. "Don't place yourself in a situation where you know that these other people don't want you. Be with the people who want you."

His words reflect a strong sense of self-acceptance and a call for others to surround themselves with love and support.

Embracing Confidence and Joy

Since stepping into his truth, fans have noticed a new confidence in Brady. And according to him, 2025 might be the year he embraces his sexiness like never before!

"You should feel confident in whatever your skin is," he shared. "I walk down the street with a little bit of a better swag. You better get ready!"

Brady also expressed his hopes for a safer, more joyful world for the LGBTQ+ community. "I'm manifesting safety for all of us. Let’s find the joy within that. Let’s give each other joy."

With his signature charisma and newfound freedom, Wayne Brady is proving that self-acceptance is the ultimate key to happiness!
