California, here they come!
On the day the California Supreme Court overturned that state's ban against gay marriage, Ellen DeGeneres announced on her talk show that her and longtime partner Portia de Rossi have plans to wed.
The former Academy Award host made the declaration during a taping of an episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show yesterday. It airs today.
De Rossi, who was in the studio, and DeGeneres received a standing ovation from the audience. Allow us to now join that crowd in congratulating these two love birds.
Conversely, allow us to extend condolences to Anne Heche. It's been a rough week for Ellen's ex. Her show, Men in Trees, got canceled; she then said she could not afford alimony payments to Coley Laffoon; and now this.
Of course, Heche is straight now. So maybe she wishes Ellen and Portia the best.

Frankly I think this is great.
A lot of attention has been paid to promoting male homosexuality as normal, but the female equivalent is still, I suspect misunderstood, Mariel Hemingway and Rosanne (or was that Woody Allen ) notwithstanding (yes Madonna, it had been done --- OOOh, get you! mieow (etc.)) and associated either with soft-porn fantasies or crewcuts, square body frames, bov-ver boots (read Doc Martens) and lumberjack shirts ("and I'm okay" ).
Seeing two very normal looking women in such a high profile relationship can only be good for the normalization of being gay and female.

Who will be the husband and who will be the wife in the Ellen De Generes and Portia de Rossi marriage ?
Ellen always dresses like a boy so if portia is fallen for the boyish look why not marry a boy .
If every man married a man and every woman married a woman the human kind would come to an end .
Anyways best of luck
