So They Say: Carrie Prejean, Margaret Cho, Portia de Rossi by Rex Wockner
Bay Windows ContributorTuesday Nov 17, 2009 "I admire his earrings and he admires my shoes." - California Assemblymember Connie Conway, R-Tulare, on openly gay fellow Assemblymember Tom Ammiano, D-San Francisco, to The Sacramento Bee Nov. 9.
"I felt like [being gay] was this huge secret that I carried around with me. And I think professionally now I don’t have any secrets and that’s really incredibly freeing. I don’t think privately I’ve had any secrets for a long, long time, but that line between public and private life was getting really hard to maintain. Especially now, I don’t know what it is -- it’s kind of freakish -- but people demand so much, to know so much about people who act. And that was just getting kind of exhausting for me." - ’Top Gun’ actress Kelly McGillis to the Palm Springs gay magazine The BottomLine Oct. 23.
"[I knew Ellen was the one] when I first laid eyes on her. But it took me three years to actually tell her how I felt about her because I was on ’Ally McBeal’ at the time and wasn’t living as an openly gay person. I was closeted and very, very afraid that if I talked about being gay it would be the end of my career. So I wasn’t about to date the most famous lesbian in the world." - Portia de Rossi in a Nov. 9 appearance with wife Ellen DeGeneres on "Oprah."
"I am a fantastically good partner in all things sexual. I am tireless and enthusiastic and very flexible both physically and emotionally. I am a good time." - Honorary-homosexual comedian Margaret Cho to the Palm Springs gay magazine The BottomLine Oct. 23.
"I don’t think there’s anything wrong with getting breast implants as a Christian. I think it’s a personal decision. I don’t see anywhere in the Bible where it says you shouldn’t get breast implants." - Deposed beauty queen Carrie Prejean to Christianity Today Nov. 10.
