Conner Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Jodie Foster has publicly confirmed she is a lesbian. The Hollywood star paid tribute to "my beautiful Cydney" as she accepted an award from entertainment magazine the Hollywood Reporter at Los Angeles' Beverly Hills Hotel last week, the first time she has made reference to her relationship with film producer Cydney Bernard, her reported girlfriend of 15 years. Picking up the prize as the guest of honour at the magazine's Women in Entertainment Power 100 breakfast last Tuesday (04.12.07), Jodie said: "I would like to thank my beautiful Cydney who sticks with me through all the rotten and the bliss." It has long been rumoured that Foster is gay, but the 'Silence of the Lambs' star has always refused to discuss her sexuality. During her speech at the annual event, the two-time Oscar winner also revealed she "doesn't have a clue what she's doing". She said: "I feel fragile, unsure, struggling to figure it all out. "I don't feel powerful, I feel like I haven't got a clue what I'd doing." The 45-year-old actress added: "Maybe that's the secret of my success, but you can't work in this industry for 42 years without being as nutty as a fruitcake." Jodie has two sons - Charles, nine and Kit, six - but has always refused to talk about their father. © BANG Media International Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesSavik Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Yeah, well, that's amazing. Celebrities often annoy me. Especially when they come out and feel compelled to act like a f*ck-up. These people often confirm bigots worst opinions of gay people by their behavior when it has nothing to do with being gay and everything to do with being a putz. Just don't be a putz and we won't have a problem Jodie. Welcome to the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no putz award for her!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go her and Cydney for 15 years, thats awesome. actually, I also always thought that she had confirmed it long time ago. That's great for her, and it certainly won't change the way I appreciate her talent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Michaels Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was just one of those "everyone knows about it" things. Anyway, I love Jodie Foster. I've always been a big fan of her movies... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
