The 17-year-old Young Sheldon star recently opened up about their preferred pronouns and their debut novel.Raegan Revord recently told Entertainment Tonight that they use they/them pronouns, sharing how special it feels to be someone others can look up to.Growing up, whenever I would see a celebrity or whoever come out as nonbinary or queer or anything, I was like, Oh my God, this is so cool, I see myself in you, Revord said. And now its so crazy to have that experience where Im now that person and there might be a kid somewhere whos like, Oh my God, I see myself in you.Fans first noticed earlier this year that Revord had updated their pronouns on social media, sparking speculation. Now the actor has confirmed it directly.From Sitcom Star to AuthorAfter playing Missy Cooper in The Big Bang Theory universe for the last 8 years, Revord shifted gears. Their first book, Rules for Fake Girlfriends, hit shelves on September 2.The story centers on rom-com obsessed Avery Blackwell, who drops her plans to attend Columbia and instead travels to her late mothers alma mater in Brighton, England. There she begins a scavenger hunt her mom left behind. But just as her journey is beginning, she meets Charlie, a local who is looking for an excuse to make her ex girlfriend jealous. The two agree to help each other out, and the rest is history. Revord said telling these stories matters deeply to them, noting that even just a decade ago there was a clear lack of LGBTQIA+ perspectives. Its crazy to say growing up, because I am only 17, but even in 2014 or whatever when I was getting more into reading and broadening my horizons and reading stories and watching TV and stuff, there wasnt much queer representation.All Started With a Big BangBut dont worry, you have not seen the last of Missy Cooper. The young actor reportedly just wrapped filming season 2 of Georgie & Mandys First Marriage, the spin-off series to Young Sheldon that spotlights Sheldons older brother Georgie Cooper (Montana Jordan) and wife Mandy McAllister (Emily Osment). The new season will premiere on CBS on October 16. Between their milestone coming out moment and the release of a queer rom-com novel, Revord is stepping firmly into the spotlight on their own terms. We cant wait to see what they do next! Source
