Los Angeles, Dec 12 (TIWN) Hollywood superstar Susan Sarandon casually confirmed her sexuality during her appearance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon this week.

The actress and gay icon casually confirmed her own bisexuality when making a joke about cats and dogs earlier this week on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, reports mirror.co.uk.

During the chat, Fallon pointed out that the superstar had brought her dogs out on a previous appearance she had made on the show. Susan then informed the host that unfortunately her dogs had died a year before.

She said: "My little creatures all passed away. I can't talk about it because I still get upset. It was about a year ago. I was feeling sad.. and I said, I can't get another dog. I just can't,' you know? And (my son) said, "Well, then get cats.' And I'm bi, soa"

Fallon took the chance to probe further, asking the star: "So you mean you like dogs and cats?"

The actress made a tongue in cheek comment saying: "I'm fluid, I'm very fluid where animals are concerned."

True to her word, Susan now owns a cat called Ida and she has described the animal as a 'b***h' as well as 'the saddest looking cat ever'.

In an effort to help cheer up her cat, Susan went on to get two more - although she insists that this didn't work in upping her cat's spirits.

Fallon took the chance to joke that with her growing family of cats Susan had become a "cat lady".

This isn't the first time Susan has mentioned her sexuality isn't heterosexual, with past comments she's made in the public eye teasing her interest in men and women.
