Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi to get married

Well it looks like Hollywood is in for a red year as more and more stars tie the knot (Ashlee and Pete, Mariah and Nick) if not get engaged. Here’s another pair to add the list of the “two less lonely people in the world.” – Ellen DeGeneres and her long time girlfriend, Portia de Rossi.

In an episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, the host who just turned 50 announced the big news just after the “California's Supreme Court struck down a law banning gay marriage.”

The two began dating in December 2004.

Well until our cable was up, I wasn’t really too aware who Ellen is. But as I started watching her show, I am always in awe with her brilliance in hosting and stand up comedy. And while I used to be really prude with this matter, I really wish all the best for Ellen and Portia.

Congrats!
