Kelly McGillis is 'done with the man thing'

Kelly_mcgillis Kelly McGillis told shewired.com today that she's a lesbian, something that had long been rumored. In an interview with video blogger Jennifer Corday, our hero from Top Gun, Made in Heaven and The Accused was asked if she was looking for a man or woman or both.

"Definitely a woman," McGillis replied, adding that she is "done with the man thing."

"Life is a freaking journey, and it's about growing and changing, and coming to terms with who and what you are, and loving who and what you are," McGillis added. Killer quote!
