(The ncept of “stanng,” if you didn’t know, is a portmante of the words “fan” and “stalker,” and first entered the lexin after the release of the Emem song “Stan.” The darker unrton of stalkg asi, sentially jt means someone who is a huge fan). Among the sapphic portns of the ter, this propensy for standom is no different. What is tertg about this type of stanng, however, is that the particulars of the fandoms (or even that they exist at all) often go unnoticed by the rt of the ter. </p><p><span>Some of the objects of the fans’ affectns are also beloved by the rt of the world – </span><a href=" rel>Cate Blanchett</a><span> and </span><a href=" rel>Sandra Bullock</a><span> are both very famo actors, for example, as is bisexual in Angela Jolie – but others fly more unr the radar. For this week’s issue, I wanted to dig to one of the lser-known lbian ins – an Irish actrs by the name of Katie McGrath. I wanted to look at McGrath today bee of this tertg dichotomy of her stardom – if you’ve spent any time on lbian-Tumblr over the last, say, 8 years, you’ve probably seen untls gifs of her face, but if you haven’t, you may have never even heard of her. (Please ment and let me know which is the se for you!)</span></p><p><span>It’s difficult to get a full handle on what mak McGrath so beloved by sapphics, but I’ll enavor to try. McGrath ially gaed regnn for her role on the BBC seri </span><em>Merl</em><span>, which ran om 2008 to 2012. She then starred an episo of the Channel 4 anthology seri </span><em>Dat</em><span> where she go on a date wh Gemma Chan. In 2013 she starred </span><em>Dracula</em><span>, where, as far as I n tell, she played a gay vampire. She then went on to star the horror anthology </span><em>Slasher</em><span> 2016, and an Atralian seri lled </span><em>Secret Brismaids' Bs</em><span>, where she plays a bossy bs bisexual, 2019. The show that has garnered her the most sapphic acclaim as of late is undoubtedly The CW seri </span><em>Supergirl, </em><span>which she joed as a st member 2016. (She also appeared 2015’s </span><em>Jurrasic World</em><span> as Bryce Dallas Howard’s assistant who promptly gets </span><a href=" rel>eaten by a dosr</a><span>. A hard day for Katie McGrath stans). </span></p><div class="ptned-image-ntaer"><figure><a class="image-lk is-viewable-img image2" target="_blank" href=" data-ponent-name="Image2ToDOM" rel><div class="image2-set"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset=" 424w, 848w, 1272w, 1456w" siz="100vw" /><img src=" width="1456" height="971" data-attrs="{"src":"" class="sizg-normal" alt srcset=" 424w, 848w, 1272w, 1456w" siz="100vw" /></picture><div class="image-lk-expand"><svg xmlns=" width="16" height="16" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="#FFFFFF" stroke-width="2" stroke-lep="round" stroke-lejo="round" class="luci luci-maximize2"><polyle pots="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyle><polyle pots="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyle><le x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></le><le x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></le></svg></div></div></a><figptn class="image-ptn"><span>Katie McGrath </span><em>Merl</em><span> (BBC).</span></figptn></figure></div><p><span>Apart om the ntent of her IMDB page, not much is actually known about McGrath, which only mak her all the more allurg to her fans. One of the facts (or non-facts, as were) that is most cherished by fans is that her birthday remas a mystery. Some s list as January, others October, and Wikipedia don’t even list a birth year. This cryptic energy is pound by the fact that she also don’t have any public social media acunts. (Speakg of </span><a href=" rel>Irish cryptids</a><span> – McGrath actually </span><a href=" rel>starred</a><span> a Hozier vio, jt like sapphic favor </span><a href=" rel>Saoirse Ronan</a><span> and </span><a href=" rel>Anya Taylor-Joy</a><span>). </span></p><p><span>This unnnectedns, fact, nstut a large part of her appeal. Some stars are famo part bee of their social media prence (see: the chaotic onle antics of Sarah Plson), while others are adored bee of how blissfully unaware they seem to be about their own fandoms (see: Cate Blanchett, who once said she has a total of </span><a href=" rel>three fans</a><span>). As such, when photos of her do appear – on the social media of iends or stmat – fans are giddy wh excement. This also means that her fandom is filled wh a particular brand of longg brought about by this lack of off-screen ntent. For fans of “offle” celebri, </span><a href=" rel>this hardship</a><span> seems to be one that fact brgs them together, rather than tears them apart. (Distance mak the heart grow fonr, as were). </span></p><div class="ptned-image-ntaer"><figure><a class="image-lk is-viewable-img image2" target="_blank" href=" data-ponent-name="Image2ToDOM" rel><div class="image2-set"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset=" 424w, 848w, 1272w, 1456w" siz="100vw" /><img src=" width="1456" height="969" data-attrs="{"src":"" class="sizg-normal" alt srcset=" 424w, 848w, 1272w, 1456w" siz="100vw" /></picture><div class="image-lk-expand"><svg xmlns=" width="16" height="16" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="#FFFFFF" stroke-width="2" stroke-lep="round" stroke-lejo="round" class="luci luci-maximize2"><polyle pots="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyle><polyle pots="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyle><le x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></le><le x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></le></svg></div></div></a><figptn class="image-ptn"><span>Gemma Chan and Katie McGrath </span><em>Dat</em><span> (Channel 4).</span></figptn></figure></div><p><span>While this lack of personal ntent om her </span><em>n</em><span> lead to tense speculatn om fans about her personal life, this is not really any different than celebri wh social media whose every teractn onle is analyzed for s potential meangs.

In the last few years, there seems to be an creasg sire among both fans and journalists to let celebri on the onle disurse about them – see, for example, Buzzfeed’s seri where celebs read “</span><a href=" rel>thirst tweets</a><span>” about them. There was also a hilar trend a uple of years ago where people on red rpets would ask var female celebri (particularly on wh a signifint queer fanbase) to </span><a href=" rel>yell “gay rights”</a><span> for the mera. (Olivia Colman cheerfully clarg “gay rights!” plays my head on a nstant loop). I brg this up bee seems celebri are beg more aware (or at least beg told) of their queer fandoms, wh the rpons om the aforementned women beg downright lightful. McGrath, for her part, seems at least somewhat aware of her sapphic followg bee of her proven awarens of the fandom surroundg her character on </span><em>Supergirl</em><span> has (more on this later). </span></p><p><span>The appeal of Mcgrath among sapphic fans is th twofold – first, she has played a signifint number of nonilly sapphic characters (by my unt, 3, but rrect me if I’m wrong). But then there is the notn that even if she is not playg a </span><em>nonilly </em><span>queer character, she brgs a palpable sapphic energy to each role (see: Supergirl). To give you an example of her nsirable pull, </span><em>Merl, </em><span>which ially aired 2008, saw a renewal populary 2016 that, as some fans have noted, mt have been at least part due to new Katie McGrath nverts gog back and reviewg her prev work. (Some fans on Tumblr have been known to ll this phenomenon “The Great Gay Migratn” – when sapphic fans are </span><a href=" rel>disappoted</a><span> by one show and llectively turn to another stead. 2016 particular was rife wh such </span><a href=" rel>disappotment</a><span>). </span></p><div class="ptned-image-ntaer"><figure><a class="image-lk is-viewable-img image2" target="_blank" href=" data-ponent-name="Image2ToDOM" rel><div class="image2-set"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset=" 424w, 848w, 1272w, 1456w" siz="100vw" /><img src=" width="1456" height="819" data-attrs="{"src":"" class="sizg-normal" alt srcset=" 424w, 848w, 1272w, 1456w" siz="100vw" loadg="lazy" /></picture><div class="image-lk-expand"><svg xmlns=" width="16" height="16" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="#FFFFFF" stroke-width="2" stroke-lep="round" stroke-lejo="round" class="luci luci-maximize2"><polyle pots="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyle><polyle pots="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyle><le x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></le><le x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></le></svg></div></div></a><figptn class="image-ptn"><span>McGrath </span><em>Dracula</em><span> (NBC).</span></figptn></figure></div><p><span>The show that has undoubtedly attracted McGrath’s largt followg is the CW seri </span><em>Supergirl, </em><span> which she plays Lena Luthor, sister to Superman’s inic nemis Lex Luthor. Lena is the CEO of her fay’s pany, L-Corp, and be a very close “iend” of Supergirl (aka Kara Danvers). I put “iend” parenth here for reasons you might be able to gus – fans of the uple (nicknamed “SuperCorp”) see their relatnship as a romantic rather than a platonic one. I myself stopped watchg the show after a </span><em>different</em><span> </span><a href=" rel>lbian ntroversy</a><span>, but even wh one eye closed, I unrstand their appeal. At one pot the seri, Supergirl actually rri Lena, bridal style, while hoverg above the cy. In another episo, Lena fills Kara’s office wh flowers and lls Kara “her hero.” (I’ve said before and I’ll say aga – there is no heterosexual explanatn for this). As the kids say, I don’t even </span><em>go </em><span>here but sometim I fd myself gettg censed that they are not actually together on the show. </span></p><p><span>Aga, not to overlook a characteristic that is perhaps obv, but Lena’s style and good looks are irrefutably a part of her appeal. The </span><em>Supergirl</em><span> creators have tapped to one of the most tried-and-te ways to make your character beloved by sapphics – put her a lot of </span><a href=" rel>sus</a><span>. In general, Lena has a very buttoned-up style which is rich wh bs dyke implitns. See also: </span><em>The L Word</em><span>’s Bette Porter, as well as McGrath’s character </span><em>Secret Brismaids' Bs</em><span>.

Durg an terview at San Diego Comic-Con 2017, st member Jeremy Jordan started sgg an improvised song about the show, referencg SuperCorp by repeatedly exclaimg “They’re not gonna get together, they’re only iends,” while stmat, notably Melissa Benoist (Supergirl herself) lghed and cheered along.

Unlike other actrs that sapphics nsir lbian ins – Cate Blanchett, Sarah Plson, Rachel Weisz, to name a few – McGrath is not particularly well known among the general public. Her rol have been primarily on televisn, and apart om two exceptns – </span><em>Merl</em><span> and </span><em>Supergirl</em><span> – many of the shows she has been on were not particularly popular and were fely not viewed much outsi their untri of orig apart om by Katie McGrath fans. (Inter-savvy fans have long vised strategi for gettg around manufactured digal viewg borrs). </span></p><p><span>That many sapphic nizens of the ter n tell you her filmography (and have probably seen a clip of her </span><a href=" rel>gog on a date wh Gemma Chan</a><span>) whout even beg a “part” of her fandom speaks to her very niche type of ubiquy. Ined, one of the reasons I thought would be tertg to wre this article is bee I would not necsarily nsir myself a fan of McGrath, but I am nohels very aware of her prence. (I fact have never seen an episo of </span><em>Merl</em><span>, or </span><em>Dracula</em><span>, or </span><em>Dat</em><span>, but I knew she was on those shows whout even havg to look them up. For some reason I </span><em>have </em><span>seen an episo of </span><em>Secret Brismaids' Bs</em><span>, perhaps bee the spir of a Katie Mcgrath stan posssed my body briefly). </span></p><p><span>All of this is to say that McGrath’s posn wh sapphic pop culture fandom exemplifi the functn of what I’ve prevly lled the queer non, which is ma up of aspects of pop culture that are beloved by queer fans for their explic or implic queer sensibili. (It is important to note that this non is not always wholly universal, however – the lbian ins that I’ve mentned above are all whe, and would behoove all to nsir how whens often mak a false claim to such universaly). That McGrath’s fandom is primarily ntaed wh the sapphic muny – a fact that is not wily known outsi such circl – is all the more tertg.

I personally nsir her a spirual succsor to Jaime Murray the sense you scribed her this article- a big name a facet of sapphic ter fandom who’s virtually unknown outsi of , who’s played several nonilly queer characters and tends to queer (tentnally or not) the others.

She's so betiful and people seemed to like her so much, so I thought she was more well-known! In 2021 I disvered that if you fd Katie McGrath and 1,000,000 other female actors betiful but only 10 male actors betiful, you might be bisexual as opposed to straight. I found your article bee I stumbled upon some (great) SuperCorp fanfictn yterday and googled Katie McGrath to retablish a mental image of her jawle, and was cur about her filmography of gay-d characters.</span></p><div role="button" class="show-all-toggle"><div class="show-all-toggle-label">Expand full ment</div></div></div><div class="pencraft ontend-pencraft-Box-module__ret--VfQY8 ontend-pencraft-Box-module__display-flex--ZqeZt ontend-pencraft-Box-module__flex-jtify-start--_8fEd ontend-pencraft-Box-module__flex-align-center--rSd6h ontend-pencraft-Box-module__flex-gap-16--TpblU ontend-pencraft-Box-module__paddg-top-8--VHq_j ment-actns"><span class="pencraft ontend-pencraft-Box-module__ret--VfQY8 ontend-pencraft-Text-module__ratn-hover-unrle--BEYAn ontend-pencraft-Text-module__ret--dW0zZ"><a class="ontend-ma-ments-CommentActns-module__lk--yWV0t ontend-feed-TextLk-module__lk--VuuIc"><div class="pencraft ontend-pencraft-Box-module__ret--VfQY8 ontend-pencraft-Box-module__display-flex--ZqeZt ontend-pencraft-Box-module__flex-align-center--rSd6h ontend-pencraft-Box-module__flex-gap-6--lHgtr"><svg xmlns=" width="16" height="16" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="var(--lor-sendary-themed)" stroke-width="2" stroke-lep="round" stroke-lejo="round" class="luci luci-msage-circle"><path d="m3 21 1.9-5.7a8.5 8.5 0 1 1 3.8 3.8z"></path></svg><div class="pencraft ontend-pencraft-Box-module__ret--VfQY8 ontend-pencraft-Text-module__size-11--k1e8b ontend-pencraft-Text-module__le-height-20--p0dP8 ontend-pencraft-Text-module__weight-medium--x7khA ontend-pencraft-Text-module__font-meta--U_nxy ontend-pencraft-Text-module__lor-pub-sendary-text--OzRTa ontend-pencraft-Text-module__transform-upperse--IDkUL ontend-pencraft-Text-module__ret--dW0zZ ontend-pencraft-Text-module__meta--jzHdd">Reply</div></div></a></span><button tabInx="0" type="button" id="trigger3759" aria-expand="false" aria-haspopup="dialog" aria-ntrols="dialog3760" ariaLabel="View more" class="pencraft ontend-pencraft-Button-module__inButton--xpBoH ontend-pencraft-Button-module__buttonBase--T0hXz ontend-pencraft-Button-module__prry_sendary-theme--YMjyc ontend-pencraft-Button-module__fill_empty--OPYgN"><svg xmlns=" width="16" height="16" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-lep="round" stroke-lejo="round" class="luci luci-more-horizontal"><circle cx="12" cy="12" r="1"></circle><circle cx="19" cy="12" r="1"></circle><circle cx="5" cy="12" r="1"></circle></svg></button></div></td></tr></table><div class="more-repli-ntaer"><a href=" class="more-repli">1 reply by Kira Dhler</a></div><div class="ment-list-llapser"><div class="ment-list-llapser-le"></div></div></div></div></div><a href=" class="more-ments">9 more ments…</a></div></div><div class="sgle-post-sectn"><div class="ntaer"><div class="visibily-check"></div><div class="pencraft ontend-pencraft-Box-module__ret--VfQY8 ontend-pencraft-Box-module__paddg-y-24--T7KvM"><div class="portable-archive empty-list"><div class="pencraft ontend-pencraft-Box-module__ret--VfQY8 ontend-pencraft-Box-module__display-flex--ZqeZt ontend-pencraft-Box-module__flex-jtify-space-between--NvIcg ontend-pencraft-Box-module__flex-align-center--rSd6h ontend-pencraft-Box-module__paddg-bottom-16--KVxKv"><div class="pencraft ontend-pencraft-Box-module__ret--VfQY8 ontend-pencraft-Box-module__display-flex--ZqeZt ontend-pencraft-Box-module__flex-gap-8--HFpIK"><div role="button" class="ontend-pencraft-unstable-PillTabs-module__pillTab--cqGWE ontend-pencraft-unstable-PillTabs-module__pillTabActive--bmZsx">Top</div><div role="button" class="ontend-pencraft-unstable-PillTabs-module__pillTab--cqGWE">New</div><div role="button" class="ontend-pencraft-unstable-PillTabs-module__pillTab--cqGWE">Communy</div></div><div role="button" class="ontend-ma-home-ArchiveAdapted-module__inButton--_iQQr"><svg role="img" style="height: 20px; width: 20px;" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke-width="1.8" stroke="#000" xmlns="><g><tle> .
