I'm going to start my new blog on famous Women Who Love Women with a post about one of world's best actresses: Ellen Page.

I bet many of you have seen or at least heard of the film Juno, thanks to which Ellen rose to fame, playing the main character Juno, a pregnant teenager. She won 27 different prizes for that role. It was not her first appearance on the big screen, though - she has played in several minor film productions before, with not much success however.
Later on she starred in two cinema blockbusters: Inception and  To Love in Rome. I have seen both and reccommend the latter for a rainy autumn evening.

Let's move on to her private life.
The Canadian actress came out as lesbian last year on Valentine's Day in an emotional speech at the Human Rights Campaign's Time to Thrive conference benefiting LGBT youth. That came as a big surprise to the world, as she had always been very secretive about her personal life. Page has been through two relationships, both of which have suffered because of her need to keep them secret. Now she's open and happily in love with her new girlfiend, Samantha Thomas, an appreciated and prolific artist.
