Actress Jodie Foster indirectly acknowledged that she is gay while accepting her Cecile B de Mille Lifetime Achievement Award presented by Robert Downey Jr at the Golden Globes on Sunday, January 13.
The 50-year-old actress thanked her ex-partner Cydney Bernard, saying:
“There is no way I could ever stand here without acknowledging one of the deepest loves of my life, my heroic co-parent, my ex-partner in love, but righteous soul sister in life; my confessor, ski buddy, consigliere, most beloved BFF of 20 years, Cydney Bernard. Thank you, Cyd. I am so proud of our modern family.”
But before saying all the speech she said:
“I’m single. There won’t be a big coming out speech tonight because I already did my coming out about a thousand years ago back in the Stone Age — in those very quaint days where a fragile young girl would open up to trusted friends and family and co-workers and then gradually, proudly, to everyone who knew her, who she actually met.”
She added:
“But now, apparently, I’m told that every celerity is expected to honor the details of their private life with a press conference, a fragrance, and a primetime reality show… I am not Honey Boo Boo,” she said, as the crowd laughed. “I have given everything up there since the time that I was 3 years old — that’s reality show enough, don’t you think?”
