Tyler posey is gay

Actor Tyler Posey has apologized to his fans after posting a Snapchat video and falsely claiming that he was gay.

The 24 year old Teen Wolf star explained on Twitter that he is not a gay, and posted a video clip to show support to the LGBTQ community.

Posey, started an Internet melt down when he took to Snapchat on Friday and posted a video, where he seemingly led his fans to believe that he is gay.

In the video, he said "This is me.

"Although I'm not gay, I fully support the LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Queer) community. “Fortunately, my dad was awesome. While discussing his romance with musician Phem, Tyler reflected upon the strength of their romance, and how being involved with her has helped him understand his own identity. “My dad called me after all this came out — I never told him anything about this stuff — he called me saying, ‘Hey, buddy.

“But I know that other people who deal with this kind of sh*t may not be as strong mentally.”

In a previous interview with Variety, Tyler reflected upon his coming out, calling it a “split-second decision,” and explaining that it was “easier for me to just be honest about all that stuff.”

He went on to note that it felt good to be able to connect with fans who might be going through a similar journey, sharing that his father was especially supportive after he came out publicly.

The "Teen Wolf" star said in an interview with NME, GF Phem, whom he's been dating since February, opened his eyes that he falls 'under the queer umbrella."

Tyler told the publication, NME, "I’ve been with everybody under the sun, and right now I’m in the best relationship that I’ve ever been in with a woman, and she’s queer too," adding, "She’s helped me realize that I fit under the queer umbrella and that I’m sexually fluid, I guess.

“I’ve been with everybody under the sun, and right now I’m in the best relationship that I’ve ever been in with a woman, and she’s queer too,” the actor and musician explained.

I’ve told people, kids who are worried about telling their parents my dad’s reaction, and they’re like, ‘Okay. Well, maybe my parents won’t be so hard on me if I tell them.’”

Tyler Posey has come out as a member of the LGBTQ community, and he says his girlfriend is the one who inspired the realization.

Tyler says he now identifies as a member of the queer community.

I never felt more alive. No, not 'I guess' ... I'm gay!"

His page was flooded with praise for being honest about his sexuality. However, he quickly backtracked by issuing an apology and clarifying about his sexuality.

"I am a big proponent of love over hate, and standing together during divisive times," Posey explained. The actor told NME that he was accused of “gay-baiting” after coming out as sexually fluid, describing the comments from fans as “really cruel,” while noting that some of them even went as far as to discuss his mother’s death.

I am this and this is me. “She’s helped me realize that I fit under the queer umbrella and that I’m sexually fluid.”

Tyler first publicly addressed his sexuality after creating an OnlyFans account last fall, when a fan asked him if he’s been with both men and women. I don’t want anyone to take this [interview] and be like: 'Well, he was kind of wishy-washy about it.'"

The 29-year-old star went on to say, "Someone asked if I’d been with men [as well as with women], and I said yes."
