Hey there girls, would anyone be able to hotlink the curve article so we can all have a look, I'm going to try and order a back issue of the website, but if anyone's already got it, it might save some time....
She was one of my first crushes - for a while there I thought it was David Duchovny getting me all hot and bothered, but turns out it was the serious redhead standing next to him. Heh.
I think Gillian appeared on Ellen DeGeneres' talk show early this year and Ellen said she was engaged. Darnit! Ellen kept egging her on to talk about it, but she was really coy.
I don't know how it is now, but she was married to some guy for three years. And she dated some other guy for a year after that. I think that was either 1999 or 2000. This doesn't exclude the possibility that she's gay of course, but just greatly reduces it. She might be bisexual too.
Jodie Foster did the voice of a tattoo on a guy, who was played by Gillian's future boyfriend, in an early 1997 episode of THE X-FILES. Jodie's face never appeared on screen. I think the guest-starring role might have come about because Jodie's and Gillian's friend, Randy Stone, was the casting director for the show.
Gillian is 36 years old.
Yeah, Gillian did hang out a lot with the Hollywood lesbians. Hmm...Anne, Ellen, Jodie...

How come she never did anything for you when you were watching the show?
Now someone tell me this. I know Gillian's American, grew up in the UK for some of the time, and spends time between the UK, US and Canada if I've read correctly? But I've hear her in the past year with a pretty heavy British accent. When she was on The Ellen Show not too long ago, it was gone. Is she able to turn on and off the accent depending on where she lives or what gives? I like it but I prefer her US voice.
Some people just pick up accents easily, especially if they are young when they move to a different country. I read a million years ago in a tabloid (ick!) that when she lived in London she was teased by the other kids for her american accent so she worked hard to lose it. Then when she returned to America years later she was teased for having a British accent. Kids .
As someone who admits to following her work like a lost puppy, I've always heard a British lilt when she speaks with an American accent but maybe that's just me. I just hate it when people thnik it's fake and that she's putting it on. What would be the point?? Everybody knows she's American!! Then they have to bring up Madonna!!
Anyways, I'm half-Russian and grew up surrounded by both Russian and American accents, and I change fluidly between the two without a thought depending on where I am or sometimes who I'm talking to. I find it can come on relatively suddenly, but takes longer to leave if that makes sense, lol. It's a very interesting concept on a psychological level.
And just to keep this on topic coz it's my first post and it IS a les/bi board : Hot damn the woman is gorgeous!!!!
[quote:3f1ba26ad2="SHIMMERGIRL"]HI GIRLS!! I KNOW THIS IS TOTALLY OFF TOPIC BUT DOES ANYONE KNOW IF GILLIAN ANDERSON OF X-FILES FAME IS GAY? I'VE READ RUMORS. WHAT DO YOU KNOW?
*gasp* oh, god. dana scully was definately my first crush.
there's something about gillian anderson that keeps me wondering. true, she's married with kids. but i suspect she may well have some gay girl leanings.
I'm devastated, she's re-married .....:cry:
I've had a crush on her since the very beginning of the XFiles. Not helped any when I had the great chance to meet her on some XFiles set in Vancouver. She's adorable and very friendly.
no i'm gonna cry in the corners ..... ouinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
Holy Mother of all that is good and pure in this world, She is hot. I thought she was hot as a red head but the blonde locks and her body are just amazing. I think she just turned 35 or 36 recently.
As for her dalliances, I sincerely believe she's primarily straight, but I also sincerly believe that she tested the waters with Jodie Foster. X-Files fans will know around what season that occured.
Edited to add that now that I think about it, it must have been really good because rarely do successful movie stars do television. It happens alot now with the whole Will and Grace stunt casting, but at the time the only really famous people I can remember doing guest spots on television was Julia Roberts for Matthew Perry and Benjamin Bratt. She was sleeping with them both at time she guested on their shows.
Is it just me or does it seem she knows almost every high profile lesbian? Sort of like Sharon Stone but without the crazy.
I thought she already came out. I seem to recall her coming out in either Curve or Girlfriends. Maybe I was just dreaming
Anyway...she's got to be gay. All the signs are there. She's very gay friendly and has spoken at gay rights events. Not to mention the fact that she has always been extremely private about her personal life.

The woman just has to open her mouth and I'm off to get a cloth to wipe up my drool ;-)
Oh and the weirdest thing is, you TOTALLY expect her to sound all American etc, but she has a REALLY British accent! Y'know, like Marina Sirtis (Dianna Troy on Star Trek TNG) etc? Maybe that's why I fancy her ;-) Or it could just be that she's drop-deap gorgeous I guess! LOL!
Dare2beu, I had a look at that link you gave us, but couldn't find the pic of Gillian and Ellen :-(

You're very right palm. I actually liked that episode because it's was the first time I can remember Scully getting any, even if the guy was kind of lame.
What's funny about the whole Jodie and Gillian rumor is that ,at the time, Jodie had been dating Cyndi for a couple of years. I didn't believe it at first because Jodie didn't seem like the kind to cheat, but then those two just kept popping up together. When I heard her voice on that X-Files episode, that clinched it for me. But really, if I had to chose between Gillian (straight and hot) or Cyndi (Gay and eh) I'd picked Gillian for as long as she'd have me. I'm shallow.

Ah, Gillian is one of my longest standing crushes. I'm choosing to believe she at least has some gay leanings.
God, but she is gorgeous.

Blonde!

Althought the red is still hot

I love her voice, with whichever accent. She's got the whole package.
