Rosie O’Donnell is convinced…..that Tom Cruise isn’t gay!

The other night on Piers Morgan Tonight Rosie told America that she was super-sure Tom isn’t a big ole’ homo – wanna know how she can be sooo certain.  Turns out, Tom drives race cars.  Rosie said:

“A lot of people have said to me oh you know so and so…are they gay? I personally don’t know a star who I have come to know and become intimately friendly in my life with who is living a false reality. I don’t, I really don’t. People say to me all the time ‘Tom Cruise is gay.’  I’ve been around Tom Cruise a lot. Tom Cruise drives race cars. I do not think Tom Cruise is gay.”

The video is not online – but you can hear the audio here in a segment from The Gary and Dino Show.  Gary and Dino played the clip from CNN and you can hear how, even Piers is incredulous at Rosie’s comment.

Not all gay dudes are into hair dressing, decorating and musical theater – not all lesbians are into home improvement and drive dual axl trucks!

I was kinda shocked to hear such an ignorant statement coming from Rosie.  Rick Santorum maybe, but not Rosie!

All stereotypes are based somewhat in reality – otherwise they wouldn’t exist. But maybe Rosie could come up with better reasoning.

Perhaps if she really thought about it – Rosie could come up with other reasons she knows Tom isn’t gay.   If for instance – she had seen him spend time lovingly with his wife and children or if she had never seen him having sex with a dude….. those might be more concrete examples of how she “knows” he isn’t gay.

Rosie needs to meet Evan Darling and read the recent story on Q4G about openly gay F1 Driver Mike Beuttler – heck, she should just add Queers4Gears to her bookmarks.  We even welcome straight readers like…. Tom Cruise. (allegedly)
