Oh that's OLD news.

AuntyMo · 29/06/2012 18:32

So pleased for her. She looks so unhappy and brittle these days.

Maybe their 'contract' ran out and she didnt want to renew. They obviously were never in love.

LiviaAugusta · 29/06/2012 18:34

Good for her. There's something a bit creepy about him and they've never looked 'right' together.

thequietone · 29/06/2012 18:34

Old news that was released about 22 minutes ago...unless you mean it was obvious from recent reports?

Looking forward to seeing a smile on her face again!

wasnt there a rumour that she was only with him as part of some contract, he had the same thing going with Nicole Kidman aswell.

winnybella · 29/06/2012 18:42

Contract has run out. They were never 'together'.

thequietone · 29/06/2012 18:43

Really? How long were he and Nicole married?

NimpyWindowMash · 29/06/2012 18:47

I can't believe that - about the contract. Why would anyone do that? To actually have a child with someone? She was successful in her own right.

Why would anyone do that?

Lol at the idea Suri was Tom's child Grin

SoupDragon · 29/06/2012 20:05

I think she probably is but it may have involved complicated IVF

Can We Just Have The One Thread On This Topic Please HQ?

yellowraincoat · 29/06/2012 20:07

But why on earth would that be SoupDragon?

Didn't you hear him tell the world on Oprah that he was in love?

Those were the actions of a very straight man.

JosephineCD · 29/06/2012 20:11

Why won't Tom Cruise come out as gay? Would it really be that big a deal in 2012?

yellowraincoat · 29/06/2012 20:12

Is there a really famous gay Hollywood star? One who portrays straight characters?

I can't think of any. Spose that's why.

Are you allowed to be a gay scientologist or do the aliens not allow that?

fireice · 29/06/2012 20:14

'Those were the actions of a very straight man.'

They were the actions of a very strange man, but I don't think that you can extrapolate that to sexual orientation. Grin

Ponders · 29/06/2012 20:14

Kevin Spacey? or isn't he officially out?

yellowraincoat · 29/06/2012 20:18

Probably not fireice.

I was watching that back a few weeks ago. Just...is he high? Is he drunk? Is he just loopy? It's embarrassing, poor Oprah has no idea what to do with herself.

Oh, I dunno about Kevin Spacey, I think he basically doesn't hide it but not sure he's ever said "I'm gay". No need for people to make an announcement, obviously, but not sure why some go to such lengths to conceal it.

fireice · 29/06/2012 20:23

Isnt Zac Efron gay?

yellowraincoat · 29/06/2012 20:24

If ZE is gay, he's not out.

MrsCampbellBlack · 29/06/2012 20:26

Oh dear - I don't feel sorry for her though - she surely knew what she was getting into although hasn't raised her career in the same way it did with Nicole.

I still like Tom Blush

MrsCampbellBlack · 29/06/2012 20:27

I get why male stars conceal it - they would never play the big romantic lead in a big film if they were out - sad but true.

yellowraincoat · 29/06/2012 20:28

It hasn't raised her profile, but she did get to have a nice wee baby without pain relief and without being allowed to make any noise.

So I'm sure that was a high point for her.
