What's the deal with Tom Cruise??

Is he gay or bisexual or just a controlling Scientologist freak, why there's so much speculation about him?

He is aging out of his past roles. He looks way too old for these action movies. It's time to start playing more age appropriate roles.

Being the supporting character or a dad.

I think the final verdict is that he is a-sexual, putting his career and power status above any sexual desires.

That being said, I believe there is some truth to the male escort rumors. I just think it stopped when the tmz era arrived. Nowhere to hide.

Fundamentally, cruise is stupid and isolated. He would have benefited greatly by going to a four-year university.

If he had done so, I don’t think he would have got sucked up into clamville. Also, he wouldn’t be so awkward and robotic if he had socialized around normal college kids.

by Anonymousreply 25April 7, 2018 12:15 PM

I had to look up what year he joined Scientology. It was in 1990 thanks to his then wife Mimi Rogers.

Before Scientology, onscreen he behaved and had the vibes of a more or less typical young guy but, after joining Scientology, the further he got into it, the more robotic and fake he became both onscreen and off.

His appearances on Graham Norton (one of which I was watching again recently) are very EXTRA! Every word and every movement seemed very scripted and very self-conscious. It's the behavior of someone who knows they're being watched.

Even on "fun" talk show appearances, he never lets you in with a glimpse into his true self like other actors do.

Just compare him to another Graham Norton guest Helena Bonham Carter. She's nuts too but she's endearing and seems at ease even though she probably loathes doing publicity. She's being herself. Not putting on a self-conscious performance.

Below is a photo from 1983 of him and his Risky Business co-star Rebecca De Mornay.

They were dating at the time but I've noticed, even though he looks more natural in those days and they had amazing chemistry in the movie, the body language between them while out and about in public as a couple for two years after the movie seems more like they're just friends or even siblings.

The only photos of them (that weren't from the movie or were publicity shots for it), the only touching they do is holding hands. More often than not he's completely removed from her and either has his hands behind his back or clasped together in front of his crotch.

There are photos of him walking way ahead of her in the street. I couldn't find any photos of them with his arm draped around her shoulders or the pair of them with their faces lose together like you see with regular couples (especially young horny ones).

I also found photos of him and another "girlfriend" Heather Locklear.

I could only find photos from three separate events (based on their clothes). At a glance, they seem like a cute couple but then you notice the body language and they look more like polite work colleagues at an office function.

Compare their body language to when Heather was dating Tommy Lee or Richie Sambora. She was all over them and you can tell their love was real.

Same with Rebecca De Mornay and her later lovers - plenty of photos of her head resting on her man's chest, arms wrapped protectively around each other, adoring looks exchanged.

Neither had that with Tom.

So I'm going to say he's asexual. He may or may not be gay but he definitely has intimacy issues both physically and emotionally.

Don't forget, Tom went to a seminary for a year but got kicked out for reasons unknown.

by Anonymousreply 26April 7, 2018 12:16 PM

Give it a rest people. He is not asexual he is a closeted gay self conscious man. Rebecca and heather were beards just like Katie and Nicole. I actually think his lover is the guy who leads the scientology movement.

As a young man, I think he was gay. Now, after about 30 years of being Scientology's prize possession, there can't be much of him that has not been poked, prodded, and reshaped by Xenu. The narcissism is still there because that is the key to Scientology's hold on him. He is a man with a broken self-image desperately seeking approval everywhere from everyone.

Should have gone to college? Barbra Streisand should have gone to college. She graduated high school second in her class of several thousand. Tom Cruz is severely dyslexic. He can't read. He was the perfect target for a scam like Scientology. They give him all the pre-digested knowledge that they want him to have. He didn't have the good sense to see the problem in that and run. But with a broken self-image, he probably could not.

And it's all far too late now.

It’s sad to think of the legacy he’ll leave behind. He’ll only be known for being a Scientologist. He really had the makings for becoming a classic, true Hollywood movie star but his unsettling personal life has taken that away. And with all of his money and the platform he had he could’ve been a tremendous humanitarian instead of squandering all his money into Scientology. And to what end? What does it get him? Hopefully one day soon he’ll have an epiphany and try to salvage what’s left.

I think he was gay or bi at one point but he’ll never self identify as such thanks to his brainwashing. Its really sad to me that he could have tried out so many more unique roles in his youth, but his drive to be the most mainstream cookie cutter male lead wont allow it. The only things you Ive liked him in were Collateral and Tropic Thunder and those dont really clash with his ego or manliness so they werent big gambles.

I can totally see him being a big deal in the Asian markets. Nobody else cares, and he'll still see it as "winning", since it's all in the numbers. How a guy like this ever chose a career as an ARTIST is being comprehension.

Of course what he takes part in couldn't be really called ART, so...

Brainwashing.

He is employed in brainwashing and those who buy his product live primarily in countries with little to no respect for human rights, and education. That's a great record.

During Cruise's marriage to Nicole Kidman, the couple endured a great deal of public speculation about their sex life and rumors that Cruise was gay. In 1998, he successfully sued the Daily Express, a British tabloid which alleged that his marriage to Kidman was a sham designed to cover up his homosexuality.

In May 2001, he filed a lawsuit against gay porn actor Chad Slater. Slater had allegedly told the celebrity magazine Actustar that he had been involved in an affair with Cruise. This claim was strongly denied by Cruise, and in August 2001, Slater was ordered to pay $10 million to Cruise in damages after Slater declared he could not afford to defend himself against the suit and would therefore default. Cruise also sued Bold Magazine publisher Michael Davis, who alleged but never confirmed that he had video that would prove Cruise was gay. The suit was dropped in exchange for a public statement by Davis that the video was not of Cruise, and that Cruise was heterosexual.

R60 Yeah, his manic episode surrounding and preceding the promotion of the 3rd Mission Impossible (jumping on Oprah's couch, attacking Brooke Shields, the manic Matt Lauer interview, etc.) resulted in that production deal ending. It also caused him to lay off the public promotion of Scientology, because had he not there was some chance that he would have been canned in Mission Impossible. It gives people the impression he's distanced himself, but he fairly recently moved to where the Scientology headquarters are in Clearwater, Florida.

It's actually kinda weird - outside of promoting his movies when they come out, he's never really seen in public. Makes you wonder what he actually does with his time.

Does Miscavage berate, threaten, abuse, and ration affection to Tom like his asshole father did? Cruise is Miscavage’s most valuable possession, I have no doubt they’re lovers. What makes this tick besides blackmail? Does Tom “like” the blackmail?

I don’t think he’s with Miscavige, I do however think he’s in Scientology for life. As others have already mentioned he’s a high school dropout who can barely read due to dyslexia. And Miscavige knows just how to play up to his insecurities and ego. I also think they’ve accumulated a lot of dirt on him over the years, and I’m sure Cruise knows certain things might be leaked if he tries to distance himself from the cult.

by Anonymousreply 158April 11, 2018 5:17 PM

He is a fascinating case study to me. An uneducated (high school dropout) man who can barely read and who has become trapped in a glass bubble (or whatever kind of bubble) due to his being elevated to a national movie star status decades ago. He has lived in an isolated, insulated world of privilege and sycophants and hangers-on for decades. Adulation. Fame. Wealth. Been given all the breaks and favors. Been the object of lust (well, he WAS) for millions. And, yet, with ALL that, he still has to wipe his ass and grow old and die. And he has aged out of the "hot young star" years. But is still trying to be "boyish" and an "action star." Like Madonna, he is desperate to cling to youth. We all would like to stay young but it is the desperation that shows through.

And NONE of Cruise's trappings (the mansions, the money, the fame, the good press, the hit films) guarantee happiness, contentment, a sense of purpose, a sense of joy. He is trapped in a virtual prison. I wonder if he literally even knows WHO he is or if he remembers who Tom Mapother is/was?

I agree, r159. Also, how he got into movies has always been rather mysterious. He was a blue-collar kid from New Jersey, who was not terribly bright, and then a year after high school he got roles in two mainstream Hollywood movies. To the best of my knowledge, he did not enter show business until after he left high school. Exactly how the hell did that happen so fast for a kid with absolutely zero connections? This has never been addressed, to my knowledge.

by Anonymousreply 161April 11, 2018 8:12 PM

I think he might have been molested as a child; I can't remember the exact details, but he has said that his father was physically abusive to the whole family. Cruise also spent a large part of his formative years involved with the Catholic Church, so I think it's a possibility that he was abused sexually by either his father or a priest. That alone would be enough to mess up anyone for life.

I also remember reading an interview with some guy who attended the Franciscan seminary with Cruise. he stated that they both engaged in mutual masturbation and oral sex.

by Anonymousreply 162April 11, 2018 8:18 PM

R161: There's actually been quite a few rumours about how Cruise got started in Hollywood. It's been alleged that he had a sexual encounter with Franco Zeffirelli in order to be cast in Endless Love. He also got his role in Taps due to his connection with Zeffirelli.

How he got his big break in Risky Business was due to David Geffen. Apparently the Director didn't want Cruise for the lead role, he'd already decided upon another actor. However, Geffen was the producer for the movie, and final casting approval was ultimately down to him. Somehow Cruise got Geffen to change his mind and force the Director to cast Cruise as the lead just a few weeks before filming began. This all happened after Cruise had a series of private "meetings" with Geffen.

R161,R162, and R163 - the most straightforward explanation is the likliest. He was sexually abused (church and/or dad), physically abused (dad, on record), and got his breaks through hustling. That said, he ran with the opportunities and escaped dysfunctional upbringing. He’s with Scientology due to blackmail and Miscavige’s psychpathic control. Whether some of that control is sexual, hard to tell. It certainly would have precedent if the abuse stories were true. But hey he’s an adult, not sure how much of a victim Tom really is now.

I remember reading an interview with an actor who went for a meeting with Zeffirelli. He was interested in being cast in a movie Zeffirelli was all set to direct, and had been told by his agent to turn up at Franco's house late in the evening. Anyway, the actor(who was straight)stated that Zeffirelli expected him to put out right there or he wouldn't get the part. When the guy turned him down Zeffirelli just acted bemused, and simply told him to leave. I think something similar happened with Cruise, and that's how he ended up being cast in Endless love.

I can well believe he was a manipulative little shit who carefully worked his way to the top before anybody else knew what was happening. Also, if you read some of the accounts of the people he's attacked they're always easy targets, or they've been held in one of the group prisons for months on end, where they're worn down by lack of food, sleep and are surrounded by guards. He also likes to play mind games with detainees, making them clean toilets with toothbrushes, write confessions over and over etc.

hasn't had a date much less a relationship in years since the holmes divorce? and masturbation is a BIG NO NO on the 1.1. scale of perversion in this cult.. so what does he do then? personally i think he has sex and his partners are scientologists themselves, now whether they are female or male is the question! also if his master, i mean his leader, i mean his bestest buddy in the whole wide world, the man he "worships like a god" is his pimp in this or allows it or doesn't know and would disapprove and make fun of him and belittle him to his face if he knew is another question?! that is if the two themselves aren't lovers of course....

supposedly everyone "in the know" from the cult who are the biggest critics and most outspoken against it, says cruise is straight, but yet at the same time, there ARE "embarrassing" stuff about his sex life in those audits, enough to where i read miscavige when reading the transcripts and/or watching the secretly hidden video taken of cruise among his inner circle (according to vanity fair magazine article and former cultie tom devocht) would "roll his eyes" and say outloud "geez, can you believe it?!" and before she went missing banished wife shelly would "blush" and say outloud "that's gross!"...

I think Cruise just didn’t realise what he was getting himself into when he got involved with the clams. It was the same deal with Travolta, there’s been rumours for years that when JT tried to distance himself from the cult in the late ‘70s they threatened to out him as gay.

I remember reading that when Cruise reached the level where you’re considered cleared he freaked out after reading all that bullshit about Xenu and the aliens. This was supposed to have happened in the mid-ninties and he apparently wanted to leave Scientology completely. David Miscavige however wasn’t having any of it and made sure Tammy was surrounded by clams 24/7. That’s why all Tammy’s staff and helpers are Scientologists, Miscavige uses them to spy on Cruise and draw him deeper into the cult.

NEVER MIND, how morally bankrupt does a person have to be to think that their "religion" or ANY RELIGION/CHURCH/FAITH doing (and other royally over the top obviously wrong butt kissing they have done for him) this is not only normal, not only okay but DESERVED!!....

THE GREATEST STORY NEVER FULL TOLD OR EXPLAINED i how cruise went from "what the fuck is this science fiction bullshit! when he found out about xenu at OT level three and telling miscavige to fuck off and leave him alone, goes off with kidman for nearly 10 years, and barely any communication besides a christmas card at best, to for whatever reason cruise/kidman divorce and nutjob former number #2 man marty rathbun under orders by miscavige to make sure they get him back (and were underminding the marriage towards the end already) in no matter what... and cruise does a COMPLETE 180 DEGREE TURN AND BECOMES SUPER ZEALOT! willing to risk marriages (kidman and holmes), career, youngest daughter, reputation for miscavige and scientology!

the story of they did alot of auditing on him and that's how he got back in? how does alot of auditing (interviewing and interrogating him with questions) makes him change his mind 180 degrees completely? something is missing and doesn't make sense!...

i read allegedly that rathbun doing these countless audits of cruise was told to end each session that went well with a "don't thank me tom, thank david!' after literally each session trying to drum into cruise's brain that EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING GOOD in his life was because of scientology and more importantly because of david miscavige! (uh, wouldn't a person with half a brain see what was happening with this "spiel" over and over again after each audit?) . then when rathbun told miscavige that he thinks his mission is done and cruise is back in the fold, allegedLy miscavige told rathbun "no, he won't be back in until he calls me and tells me personally he's back in and also ask for my forgiveness".. and then miscavige told rathbun " i don't want you to tell tom to call me either or give him my phone number, I WANT TOM TO WANT TO CALL ME ON HIS OWN AND ASK YOU FOR MY NUMBER! THEN and only then will he be completely 100% back in! and eventually this is indeed EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED!... TALK ABOUT A PERVERSE PERVY POWER TRIP AT THE VERY LEAST!...

ANYWAY, something else had to happen besides alot of auditing and subtle brainwashing during these audits for cruise to become what he has become! THE FULL STORY of what went on is not being told!

course cruise actually stated that the schools he went to did not have dictionaries in the class room and no one ever told him how to use one? on what planet does a school classroom whether grade school or high school not have any dictionaries? and since when does ANYONE need to be shown how to use one???

course just like giving scientology 100% credit for his life and "he wouldn't be where he is today without it !" (minus 3 wives of course) and never mind the fact he was a global superstar with TOP GUN BEFORE HE EVER HEARD OF SCIENTOLOGY! but like his career, his dyslexia story has to coincide with the scientology script! the question is does he truly believe this or he's doing what he's told and told to say?..

R198: you’re wrong. Miscavige never let Cruise off the hook. It might have appeared that Tammy cooled it on his involvement with the clams but my understanding is that Miscavige simply stepped up his efforts to win Tom back into the Church. That’s why you got Cruise and Kidman getting their own specially outfitted house at the Scientology base. Moreover, Miscavige had his people bending over backwards to humour every single whim of both Tom and Nicole during their relationship. Whether he was responsible for breaking up their marriage is hard to say, however I always thought that Cruise simply got tired of being with Kidman and Miscavige seized the opportunity and ran with it.

It is true though that he became super dedicated to the church after his breakup with Nicole Kidman. That’s when Miscavige really started to exert increasing influence on Cruise and even arranging that fake audition for his next girlfriend.

surely the cult was part if not the main reason they split up, but here's the thing: your wife gets you into this little secretive self help religion in the first place, you see how they started treating her and her father, you break up for whatever reasons, she and her father leave it and not only do you allow your new religion to have a say so or even THINK THEY HAVE a say so in your marriage, when the marriage ends, you meaning cruise stays in? how does that work? the woman your former wife that got you into this "thing" leaves it and along with her father, but you, cruise, stay in it? HUH and DOUBLE HUH!..

The Mimi Rogers thing was weird. He was hot as hell and in his early 20s, she was haggy-looking even then, and looked 10 years or more older than him. Strange relationship.

He obviously has mommy issues. not just daddy issues. He grew up with sisters, were they all older? Maybe that's where his "type" came from.

David Miscavige was a runt who crew up near Philly, he was a simple con man who stumbled into shit, and the only reason he hit the heights he’s hit is because Clams are loons, like our dear Tammy C.

by Anonymousreply 213April 20, 2018 12:44 PM

I think the main reason for the close relationship between Miscavige and Cruise is the fact that Tammy has finally found someone who is shorter than himself.

by Anonymousreply 214April 20, 2018 1:22 PM

Scientologists believe being gay is a flaw which they can correct. Quite possible that they corrected Tammy Marie.

I've posted this before, but I sold Mimi a condo while she was dating Tom Selleck. She was the hardest woman I've ever met. She literally would do anything to become a star.

She ended up with a converted apartment to condo in Sherman Oaks (to be near her buddy Kirstie Alley), but showing her places was agony. This bathroom is too small- Tom couldn't fit in here, blah-blah.

Taking the final paperwork to where she was filming a TV movie was sweet relief. And I never kept in touch, something I rarely do. Don't need the money that badly.

He's either asexual or gay. Both fit comfortably with his plan in youth to become a priest. Either he was okay with never having sex because he's not interested in sex, or he's a deeply self-loathing homosexualist.

#222, the whole he wanted to be a priest story has been overblown, he went to a seminary grade school for 1 year because the tuition was free if he became a boarder as the family minus the father were dirt poor. he lasted only 1 year there. In regard to sex, he had plenty of it as former girlfriends from high school attested to in the andrew morton biography, supposedly he screwed anything that moved for quite a time.. scientology neutered him it seems.

The founder of the cult, L. Ron, was gay, which explains why it's always been focused on homosexuality as a problem. During the 70s and 80s, it was discretely marketed among 'receptive' celebs in Hollywood as having 'the cure' to being gay, which is how Cruise, Travolta, Will Smith and others were drawn into its web. One of the ways the cult maintained its hold on them was by secretly supplying them with male sex partners in order to 'manage' them, somewhat the same way methadone was administered to heroin addicts in order to keep them manageable. (No, I am not comparing homosexuality with heroin addiction, but it's worth noting that Scientologists regard it somewhat that way.) One of the reasons we never really hear from men who've had Tom is that the stable of male partners are recruited from within the Sea Organization, and more tightly controlled than probably any other group in the cult - they never interact with the outside world. One day it'll break, and become the weirdest, most fucked-up story ever, far beyond even the most lurid of Catholic abuse stories. The day it does will probably see the end of Tom, assuming he's still alive by that point.

#233 the founder hubbard was gay? i knew he was a pathological liar in every aspect of life and a con artist beyond measure, but he was married 3 times and even a bigamist.. i have no doubt he was into sex kink and power trips, but gay? perhaps he was closeted too, gosh knows he came across as one huge flamboyant fop!

in regards to cruise, well there was that one guy ken danells, who was very handsome was his "production assistant' for magnolia and mission impossible 2, who surprise surprise was and still is a scientologist and who was the former husband of catherine bell, both a scientologist and a lesbian, (hence the divorce).. interesting that cruise would just happen to have a gorgeous man and a fellow cultie as his production assistant, although since then he has EXCLUSIVELY USED AS HIS ASSISTANT HIS SISTER CASS for every filim...JUST SAYING..

YOUR SURMISE could be true, i mean the idea that cruise has not only not had a relationship, not a date, but not sex since the holmes divorce what 6 years ago??... then again, if scientology and miscavige is his pimp, then that goes against everything the cult is suppose to stand for and shame its' members for being and doing?.. so miscavige breaks their gay is bad rule for cruise and supplies cruise with sex, as long as cruise does what he wants? one would think cruise would be like "wait, i thought being gay was wrong in this religion and you have the cure for it and yet your supplying me with men?" so which is it one would think cruise would think?!...

and yet, everyone who has known cruise in the cult, who audited him, who have supervised the audits and so on and who have investigated this cult, all say that cruise is straight and there is nothing "gay" in his audits? and yes, andrew morton the biographer tracked down his girlfriends who stated that yes he had sex with them...

so geez, what to believe??! ...someday it will all come out (no pun intended) i just hope it does while cruise is still alive, I HATE HATE tell all books about a celebrity AFTER their dead and can no longer defend themselves! the first "book" though will be suri's when she hits 18! yikes!

You do know that people frequently behave in ways totally incongruous with the principles they outwardly profess, right? Especially the religious, for whom consistency is not a priority, and cognitive dissonance is an art. Professional homophobes privately indulge in what they publicly condemn (look no farther than Cardinal Spellman, or Ted Haggard). This isn't difficult to understand.

#235: sure people lie, but the people who are saying cruise is straight and nothing in his audits pertaining to anything gay, are the people who would know who left the cult and speaking out against it, like rathbun, devocht, brousseau, rinder and others, who HATE miscavige and scientology and in a way cruise! if they had the goods on cruise, they would have spilled the beans by now or not said anything either way...

I DO THINK THOUGH there is something that cruise does NOT want the world to know... in a documentary, claire headley, who escaped the cult with her husband mark, who just happened to be the first person cruise himself ever audited years and years ago and who was the former case supervisor of cruise to rathbun's auditor (of cruise) stated when asked by the interviewer "are there things in tom cruise's audits that he would not want the world to know?" and she replied 'absolutely"... As i posted previously according to eyewitness tom devocht who says he was there when late at night miscavige and before she was banished (for 12 years and counting!) wife shelly and his inner circle would drink scotch as miscavige outloud read the audits of cruise giving a running commentary of it all and according to VANITY FAIR magazine that devocht was quoted as saying "miscavige would roll his eyes and say outloud "geez, can you believe it?!" and shelly would "blush" and say outloud "that's gross"..... who knows what the information is? sounds like cruise has a sex fetish or something majorly embarrassing?!..

course cruise could have 1 brain cell and lied well enough in his audits as well... (never mind,what monumental moron would one have to be to be a super famous person whose entire life is reputation and tell anyone including their "religion" anything and everything in the first damn place! especially anything that could ruin them?! duh and double duh!)...

Labelling gays asexuals is what Christianity has done in the last 500 years. Every time there's a genius or someone who stands out with an obvious gay life, there's some silly attempt to desexualize the person so they won't have to address reality.

Tom has been spotted at bathhouses and massage parlours in Europe. He's dated at least two lesbians who had kids through surrogacy, because obviously if you are a pussy grabber you have to use a surrogate to penetrate your "wife".

R244 have you watched HBO's Going Clear? Rinder implies very blatantly he knows a lot about Cruise's personal life but can't go on details (presumedly because he would be sued and lose money on a libel slander case).

The most likely scenario is that he's still with the cult because they have the dirt on his sexuality like Travolta (who was cured, remember the Miami artist who sued him when the cult claimed he was portrayed as a cure example?).

ALSO, what 2 lesbians did he "date" that has surrogacy kids?

#257: yeah, i watched going clear ( i recorded it) as i have done so with leah remini's aftermath show, as i have read every book i can about this insidious evil scientology thing, as i'm a daily visitor to the underground bunker, www.tonyortega.org....

more then a few people "know" everything about cruise, from miscavige and banished wife, to claire headley and her husband mark (claire being the course supervisor to cruise and her husband mark being the first person cruise ever himself audited), to marty rathbun (his main auditor for a few years especially around and after the kidman divorce), tom devocht, the man who stated he was there with miscavige and wife would discuss outloud the cruise audits and information and so on...

the only thing that anyone has stated more revealing was devocht saying "he probably has alot of embarrassing stuff and but who also said in a interview "that he heard some stuff, but NO, i don't think tom cruise is gay" and claire headley when asked point blank if he, cruise, had things he wouldn't want the world to know and she replied "absolutely". and marty rathbun his main auditor for years stated "cruise is straight" if anyone would know it would be these people! course cruise could be the biggest liar even in his audits, even to his "beautiful religion"..

.I DO BELIEVE there IS something there in the audits perhaps even sexual that he doesn't want the world to know, nothing else explains why he is STILL STILL in 2018 with this "self help" religion? a huge handsome movie star needs "self help" for 30 years and counting!? was a superstar before HE EVER EVEN HEARD of scientology! and he thinks getting DOCUMENTED SO royally butt kissed by his "religion" (or any religion/church/faith!) is not only normal and okay but even DESERVED? RIGHT THERE shows him to be at the very least a morally bankrupt person! and of course being a dead beat father too!

I don't know about Cruise but I'm sure Kidman is a lesbian and is now married to closeted Keith Urban and she used surrogate and faked her first pregnancy

Same for Holmes she used surrogate and faked pregnancy and now she's bearding for Jamie Foxx lol !

It's all on internet just use google and by looking at the pics you can see that Kidman and Holmes were never pregnant and used fake baby bump

Jolie did the same thing at least for the twins and I believe Pitt and Jolie are both gay.

also there was Penelope Cruz who was in relationship with Cruise in 2001 - 2004 she's also a lesbian and professional beard
