Do you think Queen Latifah would be making money the way she is if she were to come out? What happened to Wanda Sykes career after she came out? She certainly doesn't have her own sitcom anymore. Ellen's show went pretty much down the tubes after she came out.

I have more to respond to this, but I gotta get back to work.
However I wanted to answer the academy award bit.
I get what you are saying...You are right, not many. I can only think of 2.
Jodie Foster
Ian McKellen
Of course, the rumors fly about Kevin Spacey and Phillip Seymour Hoffman
