Brief Info about Ellen Lee DeGeneres

Ellen Lee DeGeneres (born January 26, 1958) is an American stand-up comedian, actress, and currently the Emmy Award-winning host of the syndicated talk show The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

She has hosted both the Academy Awards and the Primetime Emmys.

She also starred in two television sitcoms, The Ellen Show from 2001 to 2002 and Ellen from 1994 to 1998. In 1997 during the fourth season of Ellen, she "came out" publicly as a lesbian in an appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Show. Shortly afterwards, her character Ellen Morgan also came out and the series went on to explore various LGBT issues as well as the "coming out" process.

Personal life

DeGeneres' relationship with former Another World actress Anne Heche turned into material for the tabloid press. After several years in the spotlight, Heche broke up with DeGeneres and went on to marry cameraman Coley Laffoon. DeGeneres then had a relationship with actress/director/photographer Alexandra Hedison. They appeared on the cover of The Advocate magazine (after their split-up had already been announced to the press). Since 2004, DeGeneres has been in a relationship with Arrested Development and former Ally McBeal star Portia de Rossi. DeGeneres and de Rossi currently live in Beverly Hills with 3 dogs and 4 cats. One dog is a Maltipoo named Wolf.

DeGeneres has one brother, Vance, who made a guest appearance on Ellen in 1994. Vance was also a correspondent for The Daily Show from 1999 to 2001.

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.

The person, who was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly, spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity.

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.

Calls and e-mails late Thursday to DeGeneres' publicist were not immediately returned.

The court ruling means same-sex couples could tie the knot in as little as a month. However, religious and social conservatives are seeking to put a constitutional amendment on the ballot in November that would undo the Supreme Court ruling and ban gay marriage.

DeGeneres has boldly used TV before to make a stand for gay rights.

In 1997, she brought her character on the ABC sitcom "Ellen" out of the closet, making the show the first on prime-time network TV to have an openly gay lead. The move drew cheers from gay civil rights organizations but was condemned by some religious groups.

A month before, DeGeneres had proclaimed from the cover of Time magazine that she was a lesbian.

DeGeneres and the glamorous de Rossi have been a familiar couple at Hollywood events, including the Academy Awards. Previously, DeGeneres had a high-profile relationship with actress Anne Heche.

In a 2005 interview with Allure magazine, the comedian said she hoped she and de Rossi are "together the rest of our lives."

"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."

Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer..love secrets!!

Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer don't seem too worried about overindulging on together-time. On Wednesday, the carefully coiffed couple moved their well-documented schmoopiness from Miami to New York, where they hit the paparazzi-surrounded Waverly Inn for a low-key dinner with pals. "Jennifer was just smiling and looking on, clearly in love with him and acting like he was the smartest guy on Earth," a picture-painting, conclusion-leaping eyewitness relays to Us. "She rubbed his back several times and they had their hands touching under the table. It was really cute!" People reports the joke-cracking singer-songwriter, 30, who was spied sneaking a backstage kiss from the tanned and toned actress, 39, during a performance in Orlando Tuesday night, kept her laughing during their meal. (For those wondering -- and you know who you are -- Us says they split a $55 plate of truffle mac and cheese.) Jen and John foiled shutterbugs trying to get a shot of them together by exiting the eatery separately. They then headed over to Hudson Bar and Books, where they were "kissing, hugging and posing for photos together," reports People. And the definitive sign that they're smitten? Mayer got funky and did a "goofy little dance" for Aniston, who refrained from covering her face in embarrassment. They were later seen entering -- separately, of course -- Jen's New York hotel.
