Amber Heard News: Actress Opens Up About Her Sexuality

As actress Amber Heard steps back onto the big screen for the upcoming 'Magic Mike XXL' film starring Channing Tatum and several other big named male actors, Heard recently expressed her stand on sexuality being in a film that is all about the subject matter.

As she promotes the film, her recent interview with The Times via UK's the Independent, Heard, who is also known to be the wife of actor Johnny Depp revealed that she previously had a bisexual relationship and stresses that she doesn't want to be defined by the people she was with.

"It's a film about men seeking sexual attention," she explained of the upcoming flick and added, "My character's function has nothing to do with her sexuality." And speaking of sexuality, Heard explained that she doesn't want to be defined by it.

"I don't want to have to deny my sexuality in order to be me. But I don't want to have to be defined by it," she said adding that she doesn't care what people say about her. "I'm fundamentally opposed to trying to edit myself to be palatable or popular. I don't give a f--k. I fight, but I shouldn't have to."

And as her interview moves deeper into her personal life, especially since she was previously reported to have had a relationship with photographer Tasya van Ree, Heard explained that she wasn't ashamed about her personal life. "I didn't want to look like I was hiding anything," she said adding, "I'm not, and wasn't ever, ashamed."

The actress continues to dig into the highly criticized subject matter saying that she doesn't want to be placed in a box of standards. "I don't imagine myself, my work, or my life, fitting into any kind of standardized path. In fact, the idea of there even being a standard freaks me out a lot," she said.
