Wilson Cruz, 38

Came Out: When the Puerto Rican actor came out to his parents at 19, his mother was shocked and his father threw him out of the house, forcing Cruz to spend the next few months living in his car. However, Wilson and his father later reconciled. 

Why We Love Him: Wilson was playing an out and proud character on TV (Rickie Vazquez on My So-Called Life) at a time when there were no other gay Latino characters on TV. There are more gay characters on TV today because of him.
