Ellen Grace Philpotts-Page (also known as Elliot Page, per her own wishes (born February 21, 1987)[2][3] is a Canadian actress and producer. Page is a [[lesbian]].
In 2008, Page was one of 30 celebrities who participated in an online ad series for US Campaign for Burma, calling for an end to the military dictatorship in Burma.[48] She describes herself as a pro-choice feminist.[49] She attended Buddhist school in her youth and practiced meditation and yoga.[50] She practices a vegan lifestyle, and PETA named her and Jared Leto the Sexiest Vegetarians of 2014.[51] She is an atheist, having remarked that religion "has always been used for beautiful things, and also as a way to justify discrimination".[52]
On February 14, 2014, Page came out as gay during a speech at the Human Rights Campaign's "Time to Thrive" conference in Las Vegas.[53][54][55] In 2014, she was included as part of The Advocate's annual "40 Under 40" list.[56][57]
On November 10, 2017, Page alleged that filmmaker Brett Ratner outed her as gay on the set of X-Men: The Last Stand, when she was 18 years old, nearly a decade before she came out publicly.[58] In a long Facebook post, she expressed gratitude towards people who were breaking the silence against abuse, and expressed her frustration at the pattern of looking the other way in industry.[ Fellow actress Anna Paquin expressed support for Page, stating she was present when Ratner made the comment.
In January 2018, Page married dancer and choreographer [[Emma Portner]].
In 2020, she came out as "[[transsexual]]".
