Jodie Foster's Cheating Ways Will Cost Her $25 Million

Sassy Smith — Sat, 23 Aug 2008 12:36:00 GMT

Jodie Foster and her partner of 14 years, Cydney Bernard have called it quits - well, more specificially, Jodie left the relationship for another woman - writer/producer, Cynthia Mort. And her cheating ways may cost her $25 million clams!

Reportedly Jodie is trying to play nice so all of this stays out of the public eye (uh, it's not working?), and is doing her best to keep her ex content.

According to the National Enquirer, the 46-year-old actress could lose $25 million in alimony, which is about a quarter of her net worth. However, half of that, was earned while she and Cydney were together - meaning that Cydney could be entitled to that $25 million without a fight.

So Foster is doing whatever she can to keep the peace and she's apparently even trying to get Cydney and her current lover, Cynthia to be friends. *Ahem* Good luck with that!

An insider says, "She wants them to be friends. Jodie realizes that if Cydney perceives them to be one big happy family, she'd never sue for half her assets."

So far, Cydney gets to live free at one of Jodie's homes, gets invites to bashes held at Foster's house and gets to visit with her sons, Charles, 10, and Christopher, 6,. She's also receiving a six-figure income from Jody.

S'alright I guess but I think if I were entitled to $25 million clams, I'd be asking for it!

Oscar-Nominated Abigail Breslin Has A Big Head

Sassy Smith — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 16:03:00 GMT

Oscar-Nominated actress Abigail Breslin, 12, hates the way she looks on-screen and is embarrassed by her "big head." She's been appearing on TV and in films since she was just three-years-old and told Vanity Fair, how watching herself on screen makes her feel, "Sometimes I get a little embarrassed, but it's cool. My head looks really big on-screen, because it is!" Hey, don't sweat it sweetie, big heads, mean big brains!

Abigail is currently filming Nim's Island with Hollywood icon, Jodie Foster. It's a movie about a young girl, living on an isolated island, who teams with the author of her favorite book, in hopes of finding her lost father.

Other of Breslin's movie credits are, Signs (loved her in that, she was so adorable!), Raising Helen, The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement, and The Family Plan and she was Oscar-nominated for Little Miss Sunshine!

I'm betting Abigail will be much like her co-star Jodie Foster and go on to have a very successful adult career as well.

And really, the only people who have to worry about "big heads" are women who birth out those babies - I should know, my daughter has a huge melon too. Ha.

Jodie Foster Dumps Longtime Girlfriend - Gets New Girlfriend

Sassy Smith — Thu, 22 May 2008 18:04:00 GMT

Jodie Foster, 47, and long-time love of 14 years, Cydney Bernard, have reportedly split and it may be that another woman has swept Jodie off of her feet. Foster and Bernard have two children together - Charlies, 9, and Kit, 6.

The National Enquirer claims a source said, "Jodie breaking up with Cydney is shocking. Right now it's the best kept secret in Hollywood, and it's not just because Jodie is a legend and an intensely private person, either. She and Cydney have been together for so many years and have two children together, the potential fallout and legal wrangling from this split could be monumental."

Cindy Mort, a producer and screenwriter is the new woman in Jodie's life. She is the former partner of thirtysomething's Melanie Mahron and they have two children together. Complicated situation!

Jodie and Cindy met on the set of Foster's 2007 movie The Brave One and it's rumored that their fling began before Jodie's split with Cydney.

Cydney and Jodie are still living together but an insider said, "Although she and Cydney remain under the same roof at the moment, the relationship has been shattered."

The will, however, continue to raise their two sons together and do their best to keep a "loving family unit" despite their separation.

Jodie Foster Is One Tough Mama

Sassy Smith — Tue, 05 Feb 2008 12:02:00 GMT

Jodie Foster doesn't plan on giving her kid a break when it comes to showbiz. Why? Apparently the only reason he wants to get into acting is for the fame. Becareful what you wish for!

Foster's oldest son Charles had asked her if she would help him snag an onscreen role but the tough mom said that he had to go through the proper channels and also attend theatre school.

Jodie said: "The older one asks me at times if he can appear in a film or on television. I warn him that I'm not going to find him work. He can do theatre after school, if he wants.

"Obviously, he's completely uninterested in theatre. What he wants is to appear on TV. I don't believe that he really wants to be an actor."

I can't say that I blame her - fame isn't all that it's cracked up to be, just ask Britney.

To Hell With The 'Sexy' Lists: Who's A *Good* Celebrity Mom?

Jodie Foster Thanks Her Partner Cydney Bernard in Speech, World Goes Crazy

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 14 Dec 2007 00:25:00 GMT

Stop the presses: Jodie Foster is gay. While it doesn't come as any surprise to most who have known for years that Foster has been quietly raising two children with partner Cydney Bernard, the media is in a frenzy over the news that Foster publicly acknowledged her longtime companion at the 16th Annual Women in Entertainment breakfast on Tuesday.

Never mind that Foster was presented with the prestigious Sherry Lansing Leadership award that honored her 42 years in the business and reportedly gave a very humble and moving acceptance speech. The thing that’s making big news are the few words that she said at the end of her remarks, "...my beautiful Cydney who sticks with me through all the rotten and the bliss."

Did Foster intend her words to garner as much attention as they have, or was she simply just thanking her significant other for her support? I'm thinking she's wishing she had just thanked God and her lawyers like every other award recipient does.

To Hell With The 'Sexy' Lists: Who's A Good Celebrity Mom?

HerBadMother — Wed, 14 Nov 2007 21:23:00 GMT

I have an idea for a new list. It will be an antidote to all of the superficial and misogynistic lists that currently get all of the press, and it will make everyone feel better. Cookie Magazine or whomever could publish it, and we could all debate who should be on it: Loveliest Celebrity Moms Ever.

Christy Turlington, who is featured in this month's Cookie, would certainly have to be on it, because a) she is jaw-droppingly gorgeous in the most unaffected and unenhanced way, and b) she radiates good-heartedness and save-the-worldishness and makes me want to do yoga, maybe, if I could ever get off my ass. Also, she invented the world's best yoga-wear, which - quite apart from good for yoga, which I wouldn't know - is the very best garb for post-partum bodies and bodies that can't be bothered to iron stuff when they're exhausted from caring for babies.

I would also put Jennifer Garner on that list, because every picture ever taken of her and her daughter is the very image of motherly love and childish joy and also have you seen her dimples? (That I have a massive girl-crush on her and want her to join my Mommy-and-Me group has not biased me in any way on this issue.) Who else? Angelina, maybe, for adopting all of those children and very possibly saving their lives - recent controversies over the terms of those adoptions don't change the fact that she is making a home for children who would otherwise likely not have any - though she looks like she would cut you if you ever dared criticize her, which isn't a lovely characteristic, but I'll reserve judgment on that. Maggie Gyllenhaal, for breastfeeding publicly, and for being unremittingly cool. Jamie Lee Curtis, for remaining insistently consistent in promoting healthy body image for girls. Julia Roberts and Jodie Foster, for putting family life before their own celebrity. Salma Hayek, for being breathtaking (superficial, I know, but still.) Sarah Jessica Parker, because she proves that sexiness isn't the be-all and end-all of loveliness, in motherhood or in womanhood generally. I could on and on.

I would prefer that it not be a ranked list, because true loveliness defies ranking, but I'd understand if some sales-minded editor insisted upon such ranking. It would have to be a celebrity-specific list, otherwise it would be nearly infinite (the stock of motherly loveliness in the world being itself almost infinite), and - however sadly - not particularly newsworthy. Obviously, there'd be some notable exclusions - Britney, of course, and likely Posh (just not lovely, in my books. She snarls), among a great many others - which is not to say that those women are excluded from the possibility of loveliness as mothers, just that, at present time, they seem to have other, less-lovely concerns. There would, however, not be an 'Unlovely Moms' list, because unecessary meanness is just not lovely.

I'm not quite certain of how I'm defining 'lovely' here; I just think that I know it when I see it (and in any case, who knows how to define 'sexy' or 'hot', either? Or 'unsexy' for that matter?) And that it's a more precious commodity that 'sexiness' or 'hotness' or whatever. And that we should celebrate it. For a change.

Who would you put on the list? Who would you exclude?

Family Travel With the Jodie Fosters

BadKitty — Wed, 18 Jul 2007 12:02:00 GMT

Jodie Foster, her two boys Charles and Kit, and her special friend Cydney Bernard, at LAX. What a nice family. The boys seem like regular kids, except that they are actually taking care of their own bags. It's nice to see famous parents also have that familiar division of travel labor.

There is the logistics parent, here played by Jodie. Clearly going through her mind: "Where do we need to drag all these bags, anyway? Is that a map over there? Maybe I should double check the passports."

Then there is the just-keep-the-good-mood-going, at-least-until-we-get-there parent, charmingly managed by Cydney. You can practically hear her saying, "Sure we can get ice cream later, let's just keep moving! Yes, we're all tired, so let's not dawdle. Isn't this fun!"

Sometimes the celebs really are just like us. At least when they're Ivy Leaguers who take care of their own kids.
