"I’m not a lesbian, but I play one in the movies."

Gina Gershon recently came out as straight. When asked about her sexual orientation by the Austin American-Statesman newspaper, Gershon had this to say.

“The big question. I’m fairly straight. I kinda wish I could be a lesbian. So many girls come up to me all the time, I keep thinking, ‘God, I should be a lesbian.’ But unfortunately, I’m straight.”

One of Gershon’s latest bisexual movie role is Prey for Rock & Roll, where she plays an aging rocker struggling to keep herself and her band together.

Gerson also got Sapphic with Jennifer Tilly in the mobster hit Bound in 1996.

She also had a cameo in the famous Ellen “coming out” episode.
