By now you've read all the "La Vida Loca" and "He Bangs ... dudes" headlines commenting on Ricky Martin finally coming out of the closet. While we here at SheWired.com applaud the singer's decision to go on the record with what 99.9 percent of the population already knew, we hope Martin's decision will inspire other celebrities to follow suit and live as their true self - open and out. With Ricky Martin tunes playing on iTunes, we put our heads together to brainstorm 10 leading ladies who we'd like to see come out. File this under the "It's time"/"Not fooling anybody" category and let us know who else you'd like to see come out.
Disclaimer: None of the women on this list has ever come out or acknowledged their homosexuality, this is just our opinion of who we'd like to see make the formal announcement.
1. Kate Moennig
It's hard to tell where The L Word's Shane ends and Moennig begins as the actress seems to have a lot in common with her character.
2. Jodie Foster
Foster may have broken up with her longtime girlfriend in September, but she's never made the "Yep, I'm gay" statement publicly.

3. Joan Jett
4. Michelle Rodriguez
With Avatar, M-Rod continues to play the same type of role - tough, butch women. Come on out, Girlfight-style. The water's just fine.

7. Ellen Page
She whipped it real good in last year's roller derby film, and paled around with Alia Shawkat and company like it was the easiest thing in the world. Plus that Journey YouTube hit is all kinds of gay awesomeness.
8. Jillian Michaels

9. Jorja Fox
10. Justin Bieber
OK, maybe the tween singing sensation doesn't really qualify for this list, but there certainly are thousands of lesbians who look JUST. LIKE. HIM. And would anybody really be surprised?
