Chloë Grace Moretz has shared how she defended her brothers, Trevor and Colin, from bullies who targeted them for being gay. In the latest edition of Nylon magazine, the 18-year-old actress opened up about the struggles her brothers faced with taunting during their middle school years. Moretz, a compassionate advocate, didn’t hesitate to support her brothers in the face of adversity.
Chloë Grace Moretz shared with Nylon’s January issue that she proudly defended her two gay brothers, Brandon and Ethan, against bullies back in middle school. Growing up in a family where she is the only daughter, Chloë is very close to her brothers, including Trevor, whom she has enlisted as her acting coach. It was painful for Chloë to witness Trevor and Colin being targeted for their sexuality, but she bravely stood up for them.
Oh my fur! The actress appeared totally comfortable as she relaxed on the luxurious fur rug.
At the top of her game! Moretz revealed a glimpse of her midriff in a stylish black bandeau top, paired with chic high-waist trousers and a vibrant, eye-catching jacket. Speaking to the magazine, she expressed frustration at the fact that society still requires individuals to “come out” with their sexual orientation. Moretz emphasized that one’s sexual orientation, race, or gender should not matter, and that she was appalled by the stigmatization of LGBTQ individuals. Witnessing her brothers face discrimination and bullying only fueled Moretz’s passion for advocating for equality. She stressed the importance of not using divisive labels that further separate us, and instead stressed the need to stand together for human rights, regardless of age, gender, or background.
The actress from Kick-Ass showed off her fit stomach in loose jeans and a white top, revealing her midriff. Chloë shared how being raised by her single mother Teri influenced her to embrace feminism from a young age. “My mom raised me as a single parent, so I’ve believed in feminism since I was born,” she expressed. “For me, feminism is about empowered women being true to themselves and striving for equality in all aspects. It’s not about tearing men down to elevate women. I think that’s a common misinterpretation.”
“I believe that’s completely misunderstood,” said the 18-year-old as she discussed how feminism is not about bringing men down to raise women up. She also shared that in the upcoming film Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising, the supportive environment on set allowed women to voice any discomfort they may have felt. “When any of the women feel something is inappropriate, we don’t hesitate to speak up, and the team has always been respectful and understanding,” Chloë mentioned about working with her co-star Seth Rogen and director Nicholas Stoller. In her artistic and captivating photo shoot for Nylon magazine, Chloë’s strong sense of self was evident.
Capturing a moment of intensity, the actress showcased her talent in a black-and-white portrait, exuding a powerful expression. Another striking image featured her in a thick black coat, slouchy jeans, and a white top revealing her midriff. Seated on a stool, she rocked high-waist trousers, a black bandeau accessorized with a gold chain, and a vibrant jacket. At a young age of 18, Chloë has already made a mark in Hollywood with notable roles in films like Kick-Ass, 500 Days Of Summer, Dark Shadows, and If I Stay.
The actress from If I Stay looked absolutely stunning in a gorgeous dress adorned with beautiful floral and bird designs, as she spread her wings and captivated everyone’s attention. Her popularity has soared, earning her a spot on Time Magazine’s prestigious 25 Most Influential Teens list in 2014, showcasing the immense impact she has had on popular culture. With Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising currently in post-production and set to hit theaters in 2016, her career is on the rise with more exciting projects on the horizon. She is set to portray the real-life journalist Susannah Cahalan in the upcoming film Brain On Fire, a gripping story chronicling Cahalan’s battle with a rare auto-immune disorder that led to terrifying episodes and hallucinations. The highly anticipated film is slated for release in 2016, adding to her already impressive body of work.
Family is important: In October, the teenager was spotted hanging out with her brother Trevor in the bustling streets of New York City.
