Stars: March 2007 Archives

Adorable Dominic Monaghan, current star of "Lost" and a key actor in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, shows just how gay-friendly he is in these photos. Since he's happily coupled with his "Lost" co-star Evangeline Lilly, we know these pics were taken in fun. My fave? The one below with the sign describing himself as "Gay Scottish Sex Symbol." If I were going to date a Hobbit, I'd want him to look just like Dominic Monaghan...

You wouldn't except an interview with Cybill Shepherd to ever be boring would you? The piece with the newest cast member of "The L Word" in the current issue of The Advocate is pretty juicy.
Cybill, the beauty queen turned movie star ("The Last Picture Show," "Heartbreak Kid" and "Taxi Driver") turned television star ("Moonlighting" and "Cybill") turned author ("Cybill Disobendience"), has long been a favorite of mine because she always speaks her mind.
Current girl crush: Salma Hayak. "I've fantasized about her for years" but adds, "Right now I have a boyfriend and we're monogamous."
On her first same-sex love scenes: "I was very turned on immediately...it was surprising and wonderful and crazy."
Shepherd says that off-screen, she says she has not only fooled around with a woman, but was once, years ago, in love with one: "But we never acted on it. I was in love with a woman and in love with her male partner. I was kind of on the verge of becoming his lover. She said, 'You know, women should never do that to women.' I backed off. And we're still all really good friends. That woman will always be somehow one of the loves of my life."
On Martina Navratilova: "I had an incredible sexual feeling for her." She also says she finds Paula Poundstone "very attractive" and that Poundstone was her first choice to play Maryann Thorpe on the "Cybill" sitcom. Christine Baranski won the role, and the Emmy.
She an Baranski had terrific on-screen chemistry but off-screen, they ended up not getting along...
