| POWER
LESBIANS (Sky One hosted by Rebecca Loos:
Guin
was interviewed in L.A. by Rebecca Loos recently for a Sky
TV show named 'Power Lesbians'. The usual Sky sensationalism
was avoided and this was actually a good show where Rebecca
went in search of the Hollywood Lesbian Elite. She interviewed
Guin sitting on a sidewalk cafe and included her as one
of the most powerful lesbians in Hollywood. Guin looked
gorgeous in her minimal make up and bright red top, very
cute and at ease with herself as usual. Rebecca went into
what makes a 'Power Lesbian' and whether Guin considered
herself one. Amusingly Guin described a power lesbian as
someone with good suits, power and self confidence.... she
said she couldn't be classed as one because she didn't have
the suits lol. Overall it was an interesting interview and
Rebecca explained how Go Fish was one of the most iconic
lesbian movies of all time. She asked Guin whether she would
be as 'out' if she did it all over again and Guin explained
that she didn't really have that option because Go Fish
made her completely out everywhere. Also she said that perhaps
in hindsight had someone made her an offer of becoming mega
famous back then and then coming out that she might have
gone for it like Ellen. She did say it fairly tongue in
cheek though and seemed very comfy in her own skin as usual.
The director of Power Up also briefly spoke of Guin saying
that she
considers her a power lesbian even though she might not
consider herself one. It was a very good show and it was
nice to see they'd actually gone to the trouble to find
some authentic lesbians for it. Other interviewees were
the owners of Girl Bar and organisers of the Dinah Shore
weekend as well as Ilene Chaiken (The L Word creator) and
Jenny Shimizu.
