    Chloë Grace Moretz has come out as gay as she shares her 2024 election endorsement.

    The 27-year-old “Miseducation of Cameron Post” star said in an Instagram post on Friday that she identifies as a gay woman and urged her fans to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris in the presidential election.

    “I believe that the government has no right over my body as a woman and that decisions about my body should ONLY be mine and my doctor’s,” Moretz wrote. “Kamala Harris will protect this for us. I believe in the need for legal protections that protect the LGBTQ+ community as a gay woman. We need protection in this country and access to the care we need and deserve.”

    Moretz, who said she voted early for Harris, also wrote that “there is so much at stake in this election” and encouraged her more than 24 million followers to “put together a plan to get to your polling place with your friends “.

    Moretz has been linked to model Kate Harrison since 2018. The actress previously starred in the film “The Miseducation of Cameron Post,” when she is sent to gay conversion therapy as a teenager.

    In a 2018 interview with the BBC, the “Kick-Ass” star noted that she grew up in a “very Christian Baptist town” in Georgia with her two gay brothers who “struggled with a lot of self-hatred had” when they came out.

    “They tried, which is very common in the community we grew up in, to ‘pray away’ the gays on their own before they came out to the family, which I wasn’t aware of at the time,” she said.

    Moretz told Net-a-Porter that her brothers were “super excited” about her role as a gay teenager in The Cameron Post, adding: “There were several people in our small town who seemed to have prayed homosexuality away and now good ones Have relationships.” So the film was pretty close to their wives for a number of reasons.

    Speaking at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival, Moretz also said she consulted with survivors of gay conversion therapy to prepare for her role in the film.

    “They were so open-hearted with us,” she said at the time. “Thank you for telling us your story and truly telling us the darkness. And also the moments when you can meet other gay kids like you and when you realize for the first time that you are not alone.” “

    Moretz rose to fame as a child actress, most notably playing the young superhero Hit-Girl in the 2010 satire “Kick-Ass.” Her other early roles included the Martin Scorsese film “Hugo” and remakes of the horror films ” Let The Right One In” and “Carrie”.

    The actress most recently voiced the title role in the Netflix animated film “Nimona,” which was celebrated for its queer lead character and same-sex kiss.
