Lucas Alan Cruikshank was born August 29, 1993 and is an American actor and YouTube personality. In a video on August 20, 2013, he publicly came out as gay, though his family and friends knew for years. Cruikshank did not feel the need to announce his sexuality online but when he did a Q & A with his BFF Jenny, the audience asked and he answered. At first he blushed but it wasn’t a big deal. He is comfortable with his sexuality!

Lucas Cruikshank has since been on shows like iCarly, Hanna Montana, The High Fructose Adventures of Annoying Orange, Monsters vs. Aliens and more. He won the Teen Choice Award for Choice Web Star in 2009 and has been nominated for four other awards.
