Kelly McGillis, star of 80s movie Top Gun has come out as a lesbian in a recent online interview.

McGillis told the online program Girl Rock! that she was single and looking for a partner. When asked if it was a man or a woman, she said, “Definitely a woman. I’m done with the man thing. You need to move on in life.”

McGillis, who is now 51, has had two marriages and subsequent divorces, and has two daughters with her second husband. She said that coming out has been “an ongoing process from the time [she] was probably 12.”

McGillis opened up about being raped in her New York apartment in 1982, saying that she was “convinced that God was punishing me because I was gay. Life is a freaking journey about coming to terms with who and what you are.”
