DeGeneres, de Rossi plan to marry, AP is told (Ellen making an honest woman of Portia)
AP ^ | May 16, 2008 | staff

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Ellen DeGeneres is putting the California Supreme Court ruling in favor of gay marriage into action — she and Portia de Rossi plan to wed, DeGeneres announced during a taping of her talk show.

DeGeneres was taping the episode of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" on Thursday, the day the state's high court struck down California laws against gay marriage, and it was to air Friday, a person close to the production said.

Citing the court's ruling, DeGeneres said she and girlfriend de Rossi ("Ally McBeal," "Nip/Tuck") would be getting married.

De Rossi, 35, who was in the studio, and DeGeneres, 50, were applauded by audience members, the person close to the production said.

"I never would have thought my life would have turned out this way," DeGeneres told the magazine. "To have money. Or to have a gorgeous girlfriend. I just feel so lucky with everything in my life right now."

After a couple of years with Ellen, maybe she will divorce her and also go straight and marry a guy, like her previous wife did.

"Portia de Rossi" a/k/a Amanda Rogers.

She used to be Australian and used to be straight.

Now she's magically Italian and magically a lesbian.

Both "material" possessions. Funny no mention of a relationship with God.

Oh that's right she's a atheist lesbian...

“Biblical Revelation is, in fact, above all the expression of a story of love, the story of the alliance between God and men. That is why the story of love and of the union between a man and a woman in the alliance of matrimony was taken by God as a symbol of the story of salvation. Due to this, the union of life and love, based on the marriage between a man and a woman, which constitutes family, represents an irreplaceable good for the entire society, which must not be confused with nor likened to other kinds of unions.”

Address to the European Federation of Catholic Family Associations

Maybe she had to change her country of origin due to California’s strict law which prevents Aussies from marrying.

Ellen apparently was looking for a much younger "trophy" to "marry".

How sweet! Projectile chunk-spewing barf alert!

What does DeRossi see in her? Maybe just as some heteros advance their career by sleeping with the right person, DeRossi is doing the same thing merely in a lesbian sense..... Ann Heche did the same thing - whoever heard of her before she moved in with Ellen D - till she figured out she wasn't lesbian....

My guess is that Ellen will get tired of her new current carpet cleaner just as she has in the past. Winner is, the attorney’s.

I'll bet Anne Heche is kicking herself....I heard she is like 500,000 in debt and has $64,000 to her name. Marrying Ellen might have made it worth it living like that.
Saying that gives me the heebie jeebies. Ellen should change her name to Allan.

The California decision is just part of a disturbing legislative trend to legitimize the gay lifetstyle nationwide.

Look for other courts to rush to follow suit.

The whole thing disgusts me thoroughly.

So, Ellen...What God are we worshiping today, the “money” or “the gorgeous girlfriend”? Good luck when you break on through to the other side.

"Isn't she married - to a man - and has a child too?"

She's divorced and he has sole custody of the child. She was to pay him $15,000 a month in child support, but now that she is without a job she is seriously behind in her payments to the tune of many hundreds of thousands.

I know she got married....but a news blurb from Inside edition (and I heard on the local news for celebrities) that she is losing homes, can’t find work and owes tons of money. Supposed to be on Inside Edition tonight I guess.

I know it’s probably not going to be popular here, but DeGeneres is actually quite funny, and her talk show is about the best on TV. And she’s got enough sense to just leave the whole gay thing alone...
