A few months ago, in September, it was the start of the fall semester, and I was preoccupied. That is the only explanation for how the Sapphist Gazetteer missed the
National Enquirer story about Jodie Foster's breakup with Cynthia Mort. This drama comes more than a year after Foster dumped longtime devoted girlfriend Cydney Bernard to be with the younger, swarthy Mort (
see Sapphist Gazetteer post). The Enquirer reports that Jodie is "devastated."

But perhaps Jodie's gaze will fall upon another big handsome girl, Cherry Jones, a high-ranking lesbian with whom she is currently filming a movie titled
The Beaver (I kid you not). Foster is directing and acting in this film—described as a dark comedy—playing an unhappy straight lady. For a glimpse of Jodie looking attentively at Cherry on the set in NYC,
click here. Conveniently, Cherry Jones split from Sarah Paulson a few months ago and is apparently available for back rubs, snuggling on the couch, spooning, and other rebound activities.

But back to the Jodie/Cynthia breakup. What happened? The
Enquirer pins it on Cindy Mort's return to an old flame, Amanda Demme, who bears a resemblance to Rosanne Roseannadanna. Demme is a nightclub promoter in L.A. who's been linked to Lindsay Lohan. You can read
an unflattering profile of Demme that appeared in
The New York Times a few years ago. Notice the article is accompanied by a photo of Lohan's ex, sapphist deejay Samantha Ronson.
