The Advocate:
In your book, you mention a lesbian love scene you had on 'The L Word' with Cybill Shepherd. It was her first love scene with a woman.

Jane Lynch:
Of course, we were both clothed because no one wants to see us middle-aged broads flopping around in bed. [Laughs] I had one love scene under my belt, and I'm a lesbian in actual life, so I'm sure she expected me to take the lead, which I did. She was absolutely wonderful and open to the challenge. We both had a good time.

The Advocate:
Cybill has two lesbian daughters, Ariel and Clementine, who you worked with. Did Cybill talk about LGBT issues on set?
-
Jane Lynch:
Oh, yeah. She marched in the [pride] parades before it was fashionable. And she gave me an award at the Orange County gay and lesbian center about two years ago, so she's been out there. Clementine's got a great mom who's going to support her and whoever she loves.
