Joey Graceffa

Not only has Graceffa been a competitor on The Amazing Race twice, he's also a popular YouTube star who came out to his fans in 2015, in the emotional music video for "Don't Wait," which portrayed his battles with bullying and sexuality in a fairy tale setting.

Graceffa, now publishing his memoir, has been funded by YouTube to create a new film starring himself and other vloggers.
