Renata Sorrah aka The Confused Math Lady Comes Out As Bi
The bisexual math is mathing!
Another meme queen is officially family!
Brazilian actress Renata Sorrah recently opened up about her authentic bisexual identity at 76, proving it’s never too late to embrace your queerness.
Sorrah first began acting in the late 1960s in a local theater group and went on to become a beloved and successful actress in Brazil. She is best known for her roles as Nazaré Tedesco in Senhora do Destino (2004–2005) and Heleninha Roitman in Vale Tudo (1988) — and for going viral as a meme. If you’ve ever seen a woman looking around confused, surrounded by complex math equations, well, that’s Sorrah.
The way that Sorrah came out was both subtle and unique. She was attending a performance of Manifesto Transpofágico in Rio when the actor Renata Carvalho asked the audience to raise their hand if they are bisexual. Sorrah, who was sitting in the second row, raised hers.
