Internet sensation Alanah Pearce has revealed that she is pansexual in a social media post on June 26.
The Australian YouTube star, 26, bravely took to Twitter to make the announcement in front of her 358,600 followers.
The blonde bombshell, who is currently living in LA, said she made the decision to talk about her sexuality in the hope of helping others.
In her empowering message, Alanah hoped to give fans confidence and also pointed out that LGBTQ+ people exist everywhere.
The talented gaming journalist has been widely applauded for her honesty since sharing the frank message.
"Hi, everyone. I have decided to "come out"," she began in the Twitter post.
"I'm in an enormous position of privilege in that this isn't something that I've ever struggled with, or even something that I feel like I have hidden."
Alanah added: "Upon talking to a number of my LGBTQ+ friends about it, I just realised it could be helpful for others if I share it."
"I am not straight. I don't feel an attachment to any label, but if you look up the definition of "pansexual", I think it's the one that defines me best.
"I am attracted to men, I am attracted to women, I am attracted to many kinds of trans and queer folk, and frankly, being attracted to and getting to have relationships with BABES OF ALL KIDS just feel like a huge win for me."
She concluded: "I hope that by sharing I can in any way give others confidence to openly be themselves, or, on the flip side, I can show others how prevalent being, uh "not straight" is.We are everywhere, you just may not know about it."
A number of her fans have been inspired to talk about their own sexuality in the comment section of the post.
She has also been inundated with praise over the decision to make the announcement.
A person who identifies as pansexual shows attraction that is not limited by a person's sex or gender identity.
Other prominent figures that also identify as pansexual are Miley Cyrus, Janelle Monáe and Brendon Urie.
Alana's news comes amid Pride month, a time of celebration for the LGBTQ+ community around the world - as well as a time for raising awareness.
