Applegate Wed A Woman

Actress Christina Applegate has been hiding a secret from her legions of fans - she was once 'married' to a woman.

The Anchorman star has been exposed as a former lesbian thanks to a forgotten interview in little know Bikini magazine, where she talks openly about her same-sex romance a decade ago, before she wed now ex-husband Johnathon Schaech.

Applegate told the magazine she 'wed' a girlfriend in Las Vegas to "prove a point about the whole marriage thing, and how the bond between two women surpasses the bond between two men."

She added, "We got married at a club one Vegas night, and we took it very seriously - rings, rice, the whole bit."

But she insisted there was no sexual relationship. She told Bikini magazine, "We're not like that. We're like the two most heterosexual women who ever lived."
