Jane Lynch to receive Outfest award
The gay actress, who has won acclaim for her portrayal of acerbic cheerleading coach Sue Sylvester in the award-winning TV series, will receive the 14th annual Achievement Award on July 8 in Los Angeles, reports Variety.
Jane, who will reportedly marry her long-term partner Dr Lara Embry in May, told Stylist: “I never hid who I was, but I also didn’t push it out there either - and nobody seemed to care.
“I think one of the reasons I’ve had an easy path is that people like Ellen DeGeneres led the way. And now I just get to walk down that trail, whistling.”
