The Big Pink Elephant In The Room
Jodie Foster is still not ready to come out as a lesbian, despite being in a relationship with her lover, Cydney Bernard, for almost twenty years.
It's cool. It's her choice to come out or not. It's also a journalist's responsibility to ask her about it, and we applaud the folks at Entertainment Weekly for going there.
The Brave One star is on the cover of the new EW, and this was the most interesting part of the article.
"There's only one subject that [Foster] firmly swats away. A recent Out magazine cover featured two models holding up pictures of her and Anderson Cooper's faces in front of their own, under the headline 'The Glass Closet: Why Stars Won't Come Out And Play.' When asked if she has any response, Foster says, 'Was that the one with the Popsicle sticks?' Her thin lips tighten into a calm half smile of reproach: 'No, I have no response.'"
Bummer.
Jodie's not going to go to her grave closeted (hopefully).
If Loraine Barr had the courage to come out as a lesbian at 88 years old, then Jodie can do it too. It's only a matter of time!

I always suspected she was gay.
Perez Hilton / Perez Sez is: Extremely ”Gay” and BORING!!! You acted like you have never seen an entertainer before and the excitement you felt being in the presence of a (real) star simply overwhelmed you. Perez, you are truly the “ONLY” person in the world making money (short lived I hope) for absolutely NO TALENT, NO CLASS, NO RESPECT FOR OTHERS and saying things to create turmoil, jelousy, bitterness, heartache, sadness….etc., of the people in the entertainment business,(who are the TRUE entertainers of America) and then you seem to think of yourself as a “STAR”!!! Perez, when it stops for you it will be VERY abrupt. It is honestly a wonder we have anyone who would want to entertain us with people like you. YOU ARE A VERY “LUCKY”, UNTALENTED TROUBLE MAKER.

Re: b.s. – Re: SDJ –
RIGHT ON!!!! I couldn't have said it better myself.
Okay, so what is this coming out before the film "Contact" came out, that one of the posters here says they heard on NPR? Weird that no one else I know of heard it.
Jodie Foster could make a big difference in a lot of lives if she came out, including mine. But not everyone wants to be an activist, and I guess I can respect that. She still remains a positive role model - independent, smart, makes solid films with strong female leads. I think she gives us a lot even without coming out.
