Posted: 5/31/06 at 1:43amI personally had no idea about Lily Tomlin or Sara Gilbert...
#139re: More Famous American Gays
Posted: 5/31/06 at 7:50amAnderson Cooper is not out. This is the first I've heard about Sara Gilbert. When did she come out? Or is this just a speculation and rumor? Unless they are out, there is no reason why they sould be listed on this thread.

Heather Matarazzo: Lesbian Actress:
"Heather Matarazzo: Casually Comes out as Lesbian : Heather Matarazzo came out as a lesbian in 2004. In an interview with the New York Daily News she said, "I met the person I'm so madly crazy in love with. She's not famous yet. She will be. She wants to do musical theater and stage, which is not as demoralizing as the movie business is." By casually mentioning her partner's gender, Matarazzo took a huge step and subtly announced to the world, "I am a lesbian."
Heather Matarazzo: Coming out as Lesbian for a Cause: In April 2005, Heather Matarazzo was the keynote speaker at the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network of Boston's annual confrence where she described her struggle to accept her sexual orientation. "It was such a burden, because I had to pretend to be this person that I wasn't."
Heather Matarazzo's Films: Heather Matarazzo has acted in many TV and Hollywood and Independent Movies. These are a few of them:
The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement (2004)
Saved! (2004)
Sorority Boys (2002)
The Princess Diaries (2001)
Scream 3 (2000)
Blue Moon (2000)
54 (199
Welcome to the Dollhouse (1995)

I don't see anyone here who is not gay; Cooper may not be officially "out" but he's far from "in."
Never knew about Mike Nichols!

I did Gypsy with Joanne Worley in the 80's - believe me, I was surprised (pleasantly) about that one too. I also have worked with a top financial adviser who is also a lebian...but...Heather M has been very open about her sexuality. There is even a documentary about queer film where she discusses her passion for certain lesbian films, and scenes...if you know what I mean.lol.

Posted: 5/31/06 at 12:25pmbeing gay is not just about sexuality. one of the things that it's about is people who lost their partners at the Twin Towers aren't eligible for benefits because they were not married. and some of them might have chosen to be married if it was allowed.

It doesn't.
or maybe it does. maybe if more famous people would come out, we could turn the tide on anti-gay legislation? maybe GLBT children can grow up finding heroes who they can identify with?
