‘It’s hard to be a lesbian in Hollywood’ - Michelle Rodriguez

Michelle Rodriguez April 13th, 2009

Fast and Furious actress Michelle Rodriguez has spoken out about the pressures facing lesbians in Hollywood.

In an interview with The Guardian, Rodriguez did not speak about her own sexuality, but she did acknowledge that the film industry was not a positive place for gay women.

“You can be bi but not gay,” said Rodriguez. “Well, you can be gay and funny, like Ellen [DeGeneres] and Rosie [O'Donell]. It’s really hard to be straight-up gay and serious. We’re still not over that.”

Rodriguez told Cosmopolitan in 2006 that she had dated both men and women. In 2008 she told Latina magazine “if I wanna fuck a girl, a boy, a dog - that’s my business.”

  • It is possible for bi women to be supportive of lesbians, and to be outraged at discrimination facing lesbians, even on the rare occasions it doesn’t actually affect us too, and to stand up against that discrimination. And we are, and we do, on a regular basis.
