Jodie Foster: Out, Out, Out

Posted by Emily Farris

It's about as shocking as Lance Bass' coming out, but we're happy for Jodie Foster. After 14 years of keeping her relationship with lover Cydney Bernard behind closed doors, she's finally gone public:

Accepting a leadership gong at the Beverly Hills Hotel, Jodie Foster praised her film producer love Cydney Bernard "who sticks with me through all the rotten and the bliss". Describing her as "my beautiful Cydney", the double Oscar winner paid tribute to the woman who has been her partner for the last 14 years.

This Cydney must be a nice lady, because if we were Jodie Foster's undercover lover and had to miss 14 years of premieres and free shit to stay home and take care of kids that weren't ours biologically, we'd be so out the door by now.

This is almost as shocking as when Fred Schneider of the B-52s came out.

Ever since the new writers of the scanner took over, the blog has been behind the rest of the internet by about 4 days, and has lost any humor/cultural relevance it once had.

And now you've made it offensive.  Congratulations.  Yup, the coparent in a gay couple who didn't give birth can't POSSIBLY love the kids as much as a birth parent, you are so right.  Funny how you don't feel this way about Brangelina or any of the other hetero adopters.

Slip of the tongue?  Maybe, but your Freudian slip is the last straw in a series of disappointments from a blog I used to love.  You've officially lost one more loyal reader.
