[1] Marlise Elizabeth Kast, Tabloid Prodigy: Dishing the Dirt, Getting the Gossip, and Selling My Soul in the Cutthroat World of Hollywood Reporting (2007), page 222, states that Hamilton had a lesbian relationship with her stand-in, Cindy Short. In an interview by Jonathan Thompson in The Independent, 21 October 2001, she denies being lesbian, however this is not the same as a denial of bisexuality. When asked what the biggest misconception about her was, she replied, "That I'm lesbian. I've met people who have actually said to me: You were married to Jim Cameron? I thought you were gay. Maybe it's just because I forge very strong female friendships and I'm not afraid to show affection or be with my pals. Somehow my alliances with women have worked out a lot better than my alliances with men. Actually, if I didn't know better I would think I was lesbian."
