This is a list of every LGBT+ person who has been nominated for an Academy Award. This will include people who have been speculated or alleged to be LGBT+ but whose sexuality cannot be confirmed due to the person living and passing before more modern acceptance of different sexualities. This will not include people who have been nominated for films that center around LGBT + themes but were not LGBT+ themselves, such as straight men who played gay men in films.

(This list is a WIP. To clarify, the list itself is done in that all of the films with LGBT+ nominees are here. But I'm still working on going through the list and adding the actual nominee names to the notes. It's a big project, but one I'm working through slowly.)

The last ceremony to not have a single LGBT+ nominee, alleged or confirmed, was the 7th Academy Awards in 1935.
