YouTube star Eugene Lee Yang of The Try Guys has something to tell his fans, and he’s telling them in a spectacularly choreographed music video with the self-explanatory title “I’m Gay”.
In the stunning video released on Saturday, the 33-year-old filmmaker and YouTuber comes out as openly gay, utilizing a tightly choreographed modern dance routine to relay the message.
Written, directed and choreographed by Lee, the video is set to the music of ODESZA.

“I created this music video as my personal way of coming out as a proud gay man who has many unheard, specific stories to tell,” Yang tweeted. “I withheld because of fear and shame shaped by my background but I promise to give my full truth in the rest of my life’s work.
“The music featured is by the incredible @odesza,” he added. “I’ve also created a fundraiser for the @TrevorProject to help save LGBTQ+ lives. Coming out is a lifelong process – your safety always comes first – but know that there’s a vibrant community waiting to welcome you with open arms.”
