I only care about a famous person's sexuality or behavior when they publicy condemn certain acts.
I used to play the "who's gay?" game until a gay roomate of mine responded with: "Why should it matter?"
Since Mr. Cruise and followers of Scientology preach the misguided theory that the mental illness and homosexuality/lesbianism can be simply wished away, I care to find out about his sexuality.
On the other hand, Jodie Foster is probably a lesbian, but I don't want to know because if she is ever "outed", her believabilty as an actress will be damaged.
Look at Ellen Degeneres: Although she is a far better comedian than an actress, she will never, ever be able to effectively portray a straight woman.
I will never meet Mr. Cruise and will never be able to form a real opinion on him as a person. I do find it interesting that he is so litigious in matters concerning his personal behaviors.
What gets my goat is that as much as I believe I would not care for Mr. Cruise as a person, he's one hella actor and he got totally ripped off by the Academy for Rain Man.
