The LGBTQIA+ community stays winning! Stranger Things star Noah Schnapp has revealed that he’s gay in the most Gen Z way possible.
The actor posted a video of himself lip-syncing to viral TikTok audio that says, “You know what it never was? That serious. It was never that serious. Quite frankly, it will never be that serious.”
The on-screen text of his lip-sync video reads, “When I finally told my friends and family that I was gay after being scared in the closet for 18 years and all they said was ‘we know.’”
Schnapp shared the video to his 31.8 million followers with the caption “I guess I’m more similar to Will than I thought.” He was referring to comments he made back in July during the show’s fourth season, when he confirmed that his character, Will Byers, is gay and “in love with Mike.”
His coming out video has been viewed over 45 million times on the platform, generating over nine million likes and hundreds of supportive comments from celebrities and fans. Even NYC staple The Empire State Building had love to share, commenting, “We love you,” on Schnapp’s post.
