Jodie Foster Comes Out Of The Closet!
Filed under: Gay Gay Gay > Jodie Foster
Jodie Foster sent shockwaves through Hollywood this week by publicly acknowledging her same-sex lover of almost 20 years for the first time ever.
The actress was presented with a leadership award by the Hollywood Reporter at a Power 100 breakfast on Tuesday.
When accepting her award, Jodie thanked "my beautiful Cydney who sticks with me through all the rotten and the bliss."
Cydney is Cydney Bernard (pictured above), Foster's longtime partner and co-mother of their children.
In her speech, Jodie went on to characterize herself as a "professional" and a "gentleman," someone that's managed to have a 42-year career in Hollywood and come out relatively sane.
Congratulations, Jodie!

THAT'S HOTT 5TH!!
bad Karma dude!!!!
jesus honey
It's about time. Now all I need to do is follow suit and send kate on her way with a big check
duh….
OMG leave the poor woman alone. It's not like she's on drugs, neglecting her children, or flashing her vajayjay to the paps every day. It's her business, and really no one would really care one way or the other. It's a non issue.
WOW..I didnt know she is a muffdiver!
such a shocker..
Oh yeah. There goes my fantasy to bang Nell.
She was never in the closet, she's just private, unlike all of these overexposed, talentless celebrities. Jodie Foster is extremely talented, and famous for the right reason, unlike most people on your site daily. I respect someone actually not oversharing and putting their business out there for public consumption. It's refreshing.
I read that, gawker said, perez shit his pants. True?
yea and I have undeniable sources that can confirm 100% that Castro is dead!!! HAVE SOME CREDIBILITY
Isn't this reading a little too much into it? She thanked a girlfriend. So what. I thank my girlfriends all the time and I'm no lesbian.
Omigosh, you go girl! 20yrs? Holy crap. That's shocking.
Yeah i knew
bye From Holland
what-the-fucker-ever! Who cares! it's not like we didn't know. just keep making movies and what not, no one cares about your sexual orientation. Oh by the way, i'm heterosexual. See! It doesn't matter…
This was on other sites yesterday. You are not the first with news anymore.
DUH!!!
DUH!!!
DUH!!!
DUH!!!
DUH!!!
DUH!!!
Everyone has known for YEARS that she is a dyke. Nothing wrong with that.
..
..
She doesn't talk about it because she doesn't talk about anything personal. She is a very private person for hollywood.
SHOULDN'T THE TITLE OF THIS BE , WELCOME TO THE GAYBOURHOOD?
CONGRATS TO JODIE.
I always knew she was gay
Jodie's great. She is hugely talented and she's managed to live an honest life and not deny her sexual orientation but without ranting about it and being in your face like some lesbian women in Hollywood. Everyone knows who they are.
CLASS ALL THE WAY
Hooray Jody, it is about time!! I always thought you are a class act and a very good actress. I do hope you are not bashed on here. I have tremendous respect for you and wish you the best of everything.
Re: Kate –
you seriously cant be that middle America stupid/ naive LOL. "Maybe" u can……
This bull-dyke is a pervert.
She is so gross! I will never watch any of her movies. Not that they were any good. How a women can be with another women is completely and utterly sick. Hollywood is sick for frontiering and advocating gayism.
Jodi Foster is great! Her personal life is nobodys fucking business and I respect her for that. So what if shes gay??!! Do we have big news flashes over some celeb stating their straight?? This is 2007 folks..is being gay really that big a deal anymore?? Leave Jodi alone. She is a great actress and if she chooses to come out..then its her choice. Its not that shes ashamed..its just none of your god damn business ya nosey ass fucks!! Love ya Jodi!!!
It's about freaking time.
Like anyone is shocked..
Congrats Jodie!
Re: Kate – GET A CLUE, KATE.
Perez, did she actually say 'my beautiful PARTNER/GIRLFRIEND/WIFE Cydney who sticks….' No, she didn't say that. She is still in the closet. On the same night, Travolta said he was a lady or whatever, but he didn't say he was a homo bursting for a cock, did he? Sooooooooooooooo, shut up and get your facts right. Don't put words in her mouth.
Cool that she feels comfy enough to mention her wife like that.
Good for her! While most everyone knew or at least assumed, I think she came out in a way that was comfortable for her.
