Amber Heard has made a name for herself by playing the object of male affection in a long list of Hollywood hits, but in real life, the actress is happily coupled with with girlfriend Tasya van Ree.According to RadarOnline, Heard, who stars in the upcoming film 'The Rum Diary' opposite Johnny Depp, has been dating van Ree since 2008, but first admitted to the relationship publicly on Friday night at GLAAD's 25th Anniversary party.
The 'Pineapple Express' star spoke to AfterEllen.com about her choice to go public with her sexuality, telling the site, "This is the forefront of human rights... [I]f we're too scared to come out and say who we are, we'll never get anywhere."
Heard told AfterEllen that her choice to come out with van Ree at the GLAAD event was a decision to which she had given some thought. "I think GLAAD is one of the many reasons that I, as a 24-year-old, can come out," she said. "I think that the injustice of people staying in the closet is more than I can bear with a clear conscience."

They are accepted here! It's people like you that shouldn't be accepted here. Get out! Find your own country where bigots are the norm!
You move to another country, you small-minded moron.
If you believe that homosexuals choose to be so, get educated. Once you know the truth, the only reason to remain a bigoted creep is whatever homophobia exists in your dark soul. At one time, people in this country put "witches" to death and believed left handers were evil. Those superstitious morons died off. When your kind is gone, equal rights for gays will be a reality.
"IT AINT HERE" huh? wow you sound like a dumb red neck but i'll give you the benefit of the doubt. you are the type not accepted here. we dont accept bigots and prejudicism, so please find a country that will accept you...
You are the person who needs to move to another country...maybe Egypt? Get packing. You bigots need to just grow up. You most likely have issues of your own otherwise you would not be attempting to CONTROL people. And sexual orientation and sexual conduct are NOT the same thing ..for those who posted such nonsense about "keeping it to herself". My heterosexuality is evident by my wife and family just the same as a lesbian who publicly states she's with another woman. Get over yourselves you bigots or just move to the Middle East.
What a sexy couple. Man, I love lesbians.

It just goes to show - "All the good ones are either married or gay." It seems it works both ways now.

ellen degenerate is one leader
What is wrong with this world today. These people really aren't gay. I think they think it is the thing to be these days. This world is going to hell in a hand basket is all I can say. I am so afraid we will not recognize this world in five years. So sad that being gay is the norm now. What happened??????

I totally agree, we should all remember what happened to ROME, and the great EMPIRE after it became plagued with abnormal sexual decadence.
I want to be the piece of meat in their love sandwich.

Who is Amber and who cares if she is mentally off. Guess they needed 2 mins in the media and if this is all she has to say, she should remain quite.

Russel THAT'S THE POINT! Celebs are always in the public, doing press, or interviews. And usually they have a partner, spouse, or date with them. Most GAY Celebs try to hide, because of people like you, and have to be in the closet, while it is ACCEPTABLE to you for STRAIGHT people to have THEIR dates with them. So, why is it "Throwing it in your face" when she wants to bring HER PARTNER of almost 3 years? She wasn't jamming it down your throat. She was just being herself, and the media picked up on it. So don't blame her, and don't try to dictate how she should live her life.

IDIOT
She's a nobody so by saying she's gay she's hoping to get some media attention. Who cares, anyone who needs to flaunt their sexual orientation has nothing else going for them!
