Let’s see...middle-aged actress; career’s not going anywhere, needs a little something to get herself back in the limelight. What’s the quickest way to accomplish that goal in today’s celebrity culture, why announce that you’re gay, of course.
Mark my words...Ms. McGillis will be popping up on all the talk shows (I’ll bet Ellen has already placed a call), and next we’ll hear about all of her “new” projects.
Some of these “coming outs” in Hollywood are little more than carefully-calculated publicity ploys. See Heche, Anne. After splitting up from Ellen DeGeneres, she suddenly rediscovered that she liked men afterall.
Yes and her career was DESTROYED after leaving Ellen and going back to men. Gay Hollywood wrecked her big time.
I can tell you that there were stories about her and Jodie Foster back when they did “The Accused” together 20 years ago.
