Paris' New BFF: ELLEN

If you have 9 minutes to spare - this is really funny.

Ellen Blasts Palin

I have been in a very heated debate on gay marriage for the past 2 days. It has left me frustrated, infuriated and sad. I'll never understand or support the arguments AGAINST allowing them. Ellen spoke about it on her show this week and like the class act she is she managed to get her point across while being funny at the same time.

Ellen DeGeneres has blasted Sarah Palin over her support of banning gay marriage in the constitution.

The chat show queen wed her girlfriend, former Ally McBeal star Portia de Rossi, earlier this year.

And Ellen is adamant John McCain's running mate is out of line by wanting same sex marriages banned - because everyone - gay or straight - should be treated as equals.

She says, "I don't know if you saw this, but vice presidential candidate, Governor Sarah Palin, says she's that in favor of a federal ban on gay marriage. Basically she wants to change the constitution.

"So if you're wondering...how I feel about this…I don't like it.

"I don't agree. Maybe it's because I'm gay that I think we should all be equal. But I feel that we're all equal.

"I don't know what people are scared of. Maybe they think that their children will be influenced.

"I gotta' say, I was raised by two heterosexuals. I was surrounded by heterosexuals... just everywhere I looked: heterosexuals - and they did not influence [me]…. I mean I dabbled in high school, who didn't? Everyone dabbled, ya know?

"People are gonna be who they're gonna be.

"And we need to learn to love them for who they are, and let them love who they want to love."

Ellen & Portia In Baby Struggle?

Hmmmmm....? I dunno - some of this sounds believable but I can't see Ellen insisting that Portia get pregnant. Surely they could adopt. I can't see this being the crux of the argument. However, I can see Ellen wanting to be a mom and if Portia doesn't want that it could cause problems. I hope they aren't having problems that can't be resolved. I want them to make it.

Newlyweds Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi are arguing about whether to have a baby, it has been claimed.

The couple -- who tied the knot in an intimate ceremony last month -- are said to be fighting about the prospect of starting a family.

Ellen, 50, is determined to become a mom, while Portia, 35, is less keen because she would be the one carrying the child.

A source tells the National Enquirer magazine, "Ellen wants Portia to get pregnant, an idea they had both ruled out before the wedding. Portia feels the baby issue has been decided and she is very upset.

"But Ellen has gotten all goofy over the baby issue. She has been in tears trying to get Portia to reconsider. Now the situation is very tense.

"Ellen always said, 'First marriage, then kids.' She said no to a baby before because she wasn't settled. But Ellen was sure everything would fall naturally into place after she gave Portia her dream wedding.

"Now Ellen has got the baby itch again - in a bad way. But Portia won't budge. So Ellen is sobbing to friends she feels like the air has been let out of her sails. Ellen should be on top of the world, but instead she is heartbroken."

Ellen & Portia Avoid A Spectacle

Did you see Ellen Degeneres and Portia De Rossi wedding video? I CRIED! I thought they both looked beautiful and the video made me feel all warm and mushy. I was surprised that there weren't any celebs at the nuptuals, but I guess they uninvited their famous friends when it seemed that the wedding was becoming a paparazzi spectacle. Good for them!


Newlyweds PORTIA DE ROSSI and ELLEN DeGENERES upset a host of celebrity pals by uninviting them to their summer (08) nuptials.

DeGeneres has revealed the gay couple had originally planned to turn their big day into a star-studded affair, but the pair scaled back when word leaked about the ceremony.

The comedienne instructed wedding planner Mindy Weiss to alert friends the wedding would no longer be a big bash, and the couple instead wed at their home, surrounded only by family and close friends.

DeGeneres says, "We had 150, 200 people originally, we were gonna do a huge wedding and then at the last minute, we called her (Weiss) and said, 'Please call and uninvite everybody because we just can't do it; it's too stressful.'"

But the decision left some pals upset - because they thought they had been snubbed.

The comedienne adds, "We got calls from certain people thinking they were the only ones uninvited... They were offended."

DeGeneres insists she and her partner made the right decision: "We did the right thing - we only asked, like, 21 people."
