I hope this link works. I wasn't able to watch the video, so 1) I don't know if the link works and 2) I don't know if this is old news. If it is old news, I'm sure as hell out of the loop. Not that I'm entirely surprised to hear Jodie Foster is gay, but just that I haven't heard more about it if it is in fact old news.

According to the caption, in the video, Jodie thanks her partner, Cydney (that's how CNN spelled it), publicly for the first time at an awards ceremony, and then someone on CNN discusses it.

Belated introduction [Dec. 17th, 2007|09:12 pm]

Hey, there! Sorry this is a little late. ^_^;;

My name's Cytherene, and I'm a 24-year-old bisexual amateur writer-woman living in Nebraska. (I'm a former military brat, though, so if you ask me where I'm from, the answer you'll generally get is "everywhere".) It took me a while to fully come to terms with myself--a situation made worse when there was a five-year family meltdown when my older sister declared her decision to begin studying Wicca--but I finally began the coming-out process after I moved out of the house. The first to know was the man who would eventually become my husband; I told him with the understanding that he was free to break things off at any time, if he was uncomfortable with the arrangement (being somewhat uncomfortable with strange things, I believed this was a concern. Thankfully, he has been VERY understanding and supportive. I've been lucky, but I have many close friends who haven't been--close friends who can't get married just because their other halves are the same gender as themselves. It's slow going, but I am hoping for (and trying to help work toward)the day all that changes, and for once, all rights really are created equal.

Yergh. I hate writing introductions. *laughs* Well, there I am, at any rate. :D
