Chloë Grace Moretz has four older brothers, two of whom are gay. She was in middle school when her brothers Trevor and Colin came out.
“At 11, you’re incredibly observant and realizing what society is, and who you are, and people are kissing boys or girls for the first time, and you’re really starting to understand what sexuality is,” she told Nylon magazine.
“And to see my brothers struggle with the anxiety of having to come out was awful.”

“The problem is we live in a society where we have to say the words, ‘I’m coming out.'”
“No one should care what your sexual orientation is, what color your skin is, or if you’re a man or a woman,” Moretz continued.
“People would call them the f-word, and I would get so angry. It was really hard to see my brothers be hated on or bullied, so I stood up for them.”

“We shouldn’t be using these terms to create more labels and segregate us further apart than we already are. At a young age, I was motivated to fight for gay rights, women’s rights, minority rights – all human rights.”
Best known for The 5th Wave (2016), Youth in Revolt (2009), and Kick-Ass 2 (2013), Trevor Duke-Moretz moved to New York City in 2002 with his mom and younger sister. He was accepted into the Professional Performing Arts School, which inspired Chloe to become an actress.
“My brother Trevor went to the Professional Performing Arts School in New York. I was five or six at the time, and I would hear him practicing his monologues over and over, and I would recite them to my friends and family. I begged my mom to take me to auditions, and my brother was like, ‘If you’re going to do this, let me show you what I know.’ I started getting booked, and eventually, he became my full-time acting coach. He travels everywhere with me,” she said in an InStyle interview.
