But, I will buy Weekly World News on occasion. If anything, Bat Boy owes us his entire life story, that freak.

OMG - that is the greatest "newspaper". It is an occasional must read.

Isn't the Weekly World News fiction news? Like the Onion? I don't think they're trying to pass of their stories as real like Enquierer or Star... At least, that's what I always thought it was.

The Weekly World News (no longer publishing, actually) is entirely fake...but they're happy to court the conspiracy nuts/idiots who are willing to believe it.

If celebrities have an obligation to be public about their sexual orientation, when does that kick in? Is there a certain level of fame at which one has to reveal that information? Or are you just supposed to include it with your headshot whenever you audition for a role?
And what are the mechanics of revealing one's orientation? Does one call a press conference? Or arrange for a guest spot on Leno? Post it on their blog? How do you "tastefully" disclose this information? And does this notion of an obligation to reveal sexual orientation work for or against the notion of "why the hell does it matter?" If one argues that celebrities have to proactively alert the world as to their preferences, doesn't that imply to some degree that those preferences are an aberration from the norm that is somehow newsworthy? Is there nothing to be said for celebrities promoting the idea that their sexual orientation has no bearing on their artistic talents?

[quote= . . . Foster may well have been dressing to be glamorous as a woman. The title "lesbian" does not necessarily imply that one must be frumpy or not frumpy. I've known frumpy lesbians and glamorous ones, and frumpy and glamorous breeders, too.[/QUOTE]
Theoretically possible, but I suspect more calculation than that. I think she's spent a lot of time distancing herself from public perceptions of what lesbians are. Perhaps things have changed post-L Word and Girls Gone Wild fake blonde drunk lesbians, but when I last went to the SF Gay Parade in 1989, the only people wearing "elegant" dresses were men. I think that's still the public perception.

I don't see that at all. I only see she's spent a lot of time distancing herself from publicity.
