Jane Lynch was scared to admit her sexuality

Jane Lynch admits she was scared about coming out as gay. The Glee star, who recently married girlfriend Lara Embry, worried that her sexuality would harm her career.

“It’s funny, when I was younger I used to lie in bed and think, ‘What will I do if I ever get famous and they find out I’m gay?’ I would really angst about that. It just happened so naturally and I didn’t hide anything,” she said.

“I never let anything like my sexuality stop me from pursuing what I wanted to do and what I do has nothing to do with my orientation really.

“I play straight people all the time, I think I’m an actor first before I’m a gay person.”
