Out Magazine Outs Jodie Foster and Anderson Cooper

In a move that will definitely stir a lot of controversy both within the gay community and the mainstream media, Out magazine has put closeted homosexuals Jodie Foster and Anderson Cooper on the cover of their new May issue.

Michael Musto writes a story called The Glass Closet where he examines the way that semi-closeted celebrities hide in plain sight, Perez Hilton reports.

Musto challenges those such as Cooper, Foster, Will & Grace star Sean Hayes and former chair of the Republican National Committee Ken Mehlman, who dance around the question rather than give a yes or no answer, when asked about their sexual orientation.

Cooper and Foster also make Out magazine's first ever Gay Power List.

Billionaire entertainment mogul David Geffen and Cooper head the list of America's most influential gay men and women. Ellen DeGeneres, philanthropist Tim Gill, and Massachusetts congressman Barney Frank round out the top five.
