London, June 3 (ANI): Keith Britton was left red-faced at the Women in Film’s 2010 Crystal and Lucy Awards, when Avatar star Zoe Saldana decided to finally ‘come out’ about their romance.
The actress insisted on honouring him as she accepted the MaxMara Face of the Future Award at the gala.
“I have to thank that one special person who always gets buried and overlooked. I’ve lived a very private life, and I’ve been with a partner for 10 years who has allowed me to age… which is absolutely awesome. He’s super bright, and he’s here tonight and we’re just gonna come out of the closet right now.
“I’m going to say, ‘Thank you.’ I tend to confuse privacy with not saying thank you, so I love you… He has to pick me up and put me to bed, try doing that for 10 years with somebody who has, like, five personalities,” The Daily Express quoted Saldana as saying.
Britton’s face was then beamed onto the huge screens either side of the stage at the Los Angeles event.
After leaving the stage, Zoe said, “”He’s probably gonna kill me… I think it’s good to recognise that (love) even if it’s against their (partner’s) will. They’re the ones that are living with the real you.” (ANI)
