SHOWBIZ: GOSSIP: GOLDEN GLOBES SPEECHES: JODIE FOSTER COMES OUT... JENNIFER LAWRENCE 'BEAT MERYL'

Jodie Foster was honored for the Cecil B. DeMille award for lifetime achievement in film at the Golden Globes. During her acceptance speech, Foster addressed rumors that she is a lesbian.

She said, "I'm just going to put it out there, loud and proud, right? I am…single. I'm kidding."

She added, seriously, "I came out a long, long time ago".... to friends  (though not in a public forum).

Foster acknowledged she had a female partner when she thanked Cydney Bernard, who she also called out as the co-parent of their children.

The 50-year-old added, "Jodie Foster is still here, I still am, and I want to be seen to be understood, deeply and to not be so very lonely."

Jennifer Lawrence 'Beat Meryl'

Jennifer Lawrence accepted the Golden Globe for lead actress in a motion picture comedy or musical and joked, "What does it say? I beat Meryl!"

Meryl Streep was nominated in the same category for "Hope Springs."

Lawrence was actually quoting a line from the movie "First Wives Club" starring Bette Midler, Goldie Hawn and Diane Keaton.

Fans who got the joke were quick to point out she was not dissing Meryl Streep.
