  2. I like Simon's guess but I came here to say Marisa Tomei if she has ever been married, just to throw it in.

  3. Well, if it's Swank, the timing works well for her career. It's been 10 years since 'Million Dollar Baby' and her name is not exactly on everyone's lips any more. Plus she has two projects coming out, one of which she is also producing.

  4. Hmm, maybe Hillary, but she's had a boyfriend recently, not that that means anything.

  5. Gotta be Bates or Bullock.

  6. My first thought was Sandra Bullock

  7. Whoopi Goldberg

  8. It could be Sandy, but what's in it for her career-wise? She's at her peak.

  11. According to IMDB, Hilary's new flick is serious Oscar bait. Quoting here:

    "'You're Not You' centers on the relationship between Kate (Swank), a woman who has been immobilized by ALS - also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease – and Bec (Rossum), the aimless and self-absorbed college student she hires to be her caregiver in spite of her husband’s (Duhamel) objections. What was supposed to be a part-time job instead becomes a life-changing experience for Bec as her relationship with Kate transforms her into a young woman with newly-found confidence and ambition."

    Out of closet + serious role = Oscar 3?

  12. Doesn't really matter. If she's happy then it's all good.

  13. Who's the one leaving ahs? The older one?

    ReplyDelete
  14. You mean Jessica Lange? Now THAT would be newsworthy. She did say she wants to do one more season of AHS, then a movie, then retire.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Isn't Jessica lange. And Sara Paulson a thing for a while now?

  16. off topic, but why do people still refer to women as "gay"? wouldnt we refer to her as lesbian or homosexual? or is "gay" still the umbrella term?

    ReplyDelete
  17. Just a shot in the dark--Liza Minnelli?

    ReplyDelete
  18. @T E Cuz - I prefer to be under the gay umbrella. Never have liked all the subcategories or differentiation. JMO.

  19. @syd i understand. it confuses me a little bit when people use multiple words to refer to (what my perspective sees as) the same thing.

    also since its an intimate topic, i feel like people want to be described as accurately/correctly as possible, but it's so individual that sometimes i just dont understand all the words and meanings.

    so basically, i was just confused about whether it's correct to call a female "gay."

    ReplyDelete
  20. I understand your confusion, Cuz. Hell, it confuses me too! Besides, I'm more often referred to as "bitch" than gay/lesbian anyway. :P

    ReplyDelete
  21. Not Renee with those 14 day shagathons with her boyfriend... ;)

    'Gay' is the umbrella term, I think, but usually defaults to meaning 'gay man', where 'lesbian' becomes a way to specify 'gay female' i.e. 'gay and lesbian' (this phrase has always seems a bit repetitious to me; do we have to call out women separately?).

    ReplyDelete
  22. Whoopi's definitely not gay.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I like the Kathy Bates guess.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I'm surprised Whoopi's not gay. She's always appeared to be so but then..Anyway.My guess Sandy. Has been with men but more as friends and not hanging out as lovers like Hilary Swank has. I'm actually kind of torn.

    1. Whoopi had relationships with Ted Danson and Frank Langella. I've heard her mention that she has a man on The View.

      Not that any of that means anything.

  25. I doubt Sandy will ever come put. I like the Hilary Swank guess.

  28. Kathy Bates was my first guess. One short marriage and, as a 65 year old character actress, she probably doesn't have much career risk. Best of luck to whoever it is.

  29. Amanda - Sarandon was married to actor Michael Sarandon

  30. Coming back to this hours later - Helen Hunt?

    ReplyDelete
  31. NUTTY I'd wat that swank movie but only if John Waters directs it.

    ReplyDelete
  32. So the dude was such a bad lover that he made her gay? Great publicity.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Helen Hunt is my guess too.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Swank one 2 Oscars for basically playing dudes. I'll throw my support to her for this, though I reject the notion she is A-List. She is a B.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Is the reason people think Swank is gay, just because of her roles and appearance in them? I'm so meh on 'are they gay' things but just wondered.

    ReplyDelete
  36. I have always thought Hilary Swank and Sandra Bullock both are gay, so neither would shock me.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Tilda openly lives with her husband and her boyfriend.

    I'm on board with Helen Hunt. It's about time.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Kathy Bates has been quietly out for years. No one bothers her since she's not an tabloid/paparazzi target.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I really, really hope it's Sandra. She's so awesome- it would be great to have her on the team. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  40. Not Helen. No way. Maybe Hilary.

    ReplyDelete
  41. It's not Swank, enty called her B list in the A To D List - The Hierarchy

    ReplyDelete
  42. Angela Bassett

    ReplyDelete
  43. You can't trust Enty's lists! I found this weird little story about Swank:
