Seems we have been writing variations on this story for a while now.
Sexy female celeb has single/hair product/film to promote.
Celeb thinks - what will get me lots of coverage?
Celeb "reveals" that she has had some sort of lesbian crush/snog/affair.
Bingo - the tabloids salivate all over it and print "sexy pictures" of naughty stars.
Let's look at The Mirror's coverage of today's new lesbian:
"SEXY Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie has admitted to a series of lesbian flings."
So she is sexy, and she has ADMITTED to the lesbian sex ....
"Fergie, 31, said she rebelled against a Catholic upbringing and went on a wild sex and drugs spree when she got to 18."
Catholic girl, another male sexual fantasy. Nice touch.
"She added: "I have had lesbian experiences in the past. I won't say how many men I've had sex with - but I am a very sexual person.""
Just so we are clear - she has done sex with lots of men too, so you are in with a chance lads.
"Fergie, real name Stacy Ferguson, also got drawn into Los Angeles' sordid drug and gang culture.
She added: "I had a gun put to my head during a drug deal that went wrong. Luckily I got out of it.""
Sordid - nice word.
And, just in case you were wondering why Fergie chose this particular second to "admit" her same-sex sex ........
"Fergie, who had a UK hit with Where Is The Love, stars with Quentin Tarantino in new movie Grindhouse - playing a lesbian."
Ah - thought there might be something she wanted to sell.
Just try to imagine, say, Mel Gibson or Matt Damon "revealing" that they had had a boy-on-boy snog in order to drum up business for their latest film/restaurant/Crucifixion-themed cutlery set.
I fear we might have a few years to wait before we see that.
