Recently the actress Jena Malone came out as pansexual in a moving interpretative dance on her Instagram page.

Malone—who fans know from her appearance in movies as varied as Saved to The Hunger Games—remarked in the caption on her post:


"I guess It felt like I was a heterosexual man in a woman’s body. I visualized his desires and placed them on to me."
"But this , was never the whole of the story that was meant for me. So I’ve been learning a new way to tell it."
"Using words to guide me not define me."
"That my sexual identity has more to teach and to tell me. Finding words that feel more right to explore in my telling."
"Pansexuality. Sapiosexuality. Polyamory."
"A fuller spectrum of understanding that my story is demanding of me."
"And I’m honoring it today with this soft and sleepy little stretch of a dance."
"I love humans. So there’s that."

The video can be seen here:

Malone elaborated further in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter:

She said:

“I’ve been loving the process of learning more about myself and others through different terms that open windows, those windows then turn into doors and then I arrive at a place to find all this cool stuff out there.”

On Instagram, the comments were full of love and support.

Reactions on Twitter were also positive.

One person asked about the medium in which Malone came out.

But they celebrated Malone's coming out.

Someone else commented on the meta-nature of the concept of developing a (gay) crush on a celebrity and then simply waiting for them to come out.

Malone will be appearing soon in Adopting Audrey, directed by Zack Snyder.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
