Lily Rose Depp, daughter of famous actor, Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis, has made a bold move by appearing on a project called "Self Evident Project" that features thousands of people who belong "somewhere" on the LGBTQ spectrum.

The 16-year-old actress, who recently launched a campaign with high fashion brand Chanel, posed with photographer, iO Tillet, for the project that aims to collect 10,000 photos of Americans who are unsure about their sexuality, or don't define themselves as "100 percent straight." Depp is part of the last haul of people to join in, as she is counted as the 9,958th person to take part in the campaign.

The photo, which was posted in to Wright's Instagram account, shows the teen actress hunching over the photographer's back in "piggy-back style."

"I'm so proud of my baby girl @lilyrose_depp. She decided she wanted to be in @selfevident project because she falls somewhere in the vast spectrum, and I couldn't be happier to welcome her to the family. She's a tiny gem of a good human. #prouduncle #weareyou" wrote the photographer as the caption.

According to Elle, 48 percent of Americans don't use sexuality to define themselves, without knowing of they are straight or gay. Amassing almost half of the subjects, this represents a huge lot on how the modern culture views sexuality. Other celebrities who refuse to define themselves by their sexualities are singer, Miley Cyrus and "Twilight" actress, Kristen Stewart.

Other famous faces that joined the Self Evident Campaign are Amber Heard, Depp's stepmother, and model Cara Delevigne. Delevigne, who ha said in the past that she has not "made a concrete decision" about her sexuality, posed for the campaign wearing a shirt with the campaign's slogan, "We Are You," written on it.

"I'm late for National Coming Out Day but better late than never. Don't be scared to be who you are. Please follow @iolovesyou and @selfevidentproject because #WEAREYOU," wrote the model in her post.

According to her website, Wright intends to showcase the final collection of photographs in a colossal art installation right in front of the Washington Monument, just before the next presidential election in 2016. Wright's main goal behind the project is to halt discrimination against members of the LGBTQ community, as well as to "erase the boundaries" evident within the community.
