Oh yeah, in other more Cruise related news, a Top Gun star finally comes out! NO not Cruise, he's still cowering in the back of the closet, but not his on-screen love interest, Kelly McGillis, who has confirmed she is a lesbian.

Of course, kissing Tom Cruise and being forced to hear him butcher the Righteous Brothers might push anyone to the other team.

Here's more on Kelly's decision to come out as a lesbian from Fox News:

Tom Cruise's girlfriend in the 1980s hit "Top Gun" confirmed in an interview the longstanding rumor that she's gay. Kelly told Internet show Girl Rock!'s Jennifer Corday that she was single, and in the market for a female partner.

"Definitely a woman," she said when asked if she's looking for a man or a woman. "I'm done with the man thing. You need to move on in life."

McGillis, 51, has been married and divorced twice, and has two daughters with her second husband, Fred Tillman.

The actress said coming out as a lesbian was "an ongoing process from the time I was probably 12."

She added that "I had a lot of things happen that convinced me that God was punishing me because I was gay." McGillis was attacked and raped in her apartment in 1982 when she was a young actress working in New York.

I am glad to see that she has healed and come to terms with her sexuality and brave enough to share it with the world. Kudos Kelly!
