Professional skateboarder Nora Vasconcellos admitted that she was mistaken as part of the LGBTQIA+ community during a visit to a gay bar.

The story unfolded when Vasconcellos and Nicole Hause were asked in a Thrasher "VS" segment if they were publicly recognized as famous skateboarders.

Both skaters recalled the celebration of their friend Poppy's birthday, only to be unintentionally embraced by the LGBTQIA+ community in a case of misidentification.

The Welcome Skateboards pro skater clarified that she is not a member of the LGBTQIA+ community but was merely there to support her friend's birthday festivities.

Vasconcellos and Hause shared a laugh as they recounted the memorable night.

The mix-up occurred when patrons at the gay bar, recognizing her as a familiar face, assumed she was part of the rainbow movement.
