I thought I would add my two cents about the Out cover. Although I don’t think the “Jodie Foster is a lesbian” story is going to come as a surprise to anyone (I think that lesbian ”secret” has been out for so long that I would have been more shocked if she appeared on the cover of an In magazine), I am disturbed to see her on the cover of Out nevertheless. I would have surely thought she would have gotten wind that this was going to hit the stand and had her legal reps pull the cover, or at least have them tell Out to let Jodie get first approval so she can put her own spin on her coming out of the closet.

I really don’t think this story is going to die anytime soon and am expecting lots of denials and lawsuits being thrown everywhere when Jodie and Anderson snap to–they do have have their reputations to protect as a leading lady and a super journalist, respectively. It’s a shame really, because I had never heard of Out magazine until this morning and if they did “out” them (no pun intended) intentionally without their approval, giving them extra publicity for their actions will just spur them on to do this to another hapless celebrity pair just to up their magazine subscriptions.
