Yesterday was quite the day!

As part of the gay marriage celebration, Ellen DeGeneres announced that she and her lovely lady, fellow entertainer Portia de Rossi will marry. Said the lesbian funny lady:

This is very exciting, I have to say. Yesterday, the California Supreme Court overturned the ban on gay marriage. So I would like to say right now, for the first time, I am announcing that I am getting married. […]

I’m so excited. It’s something that we’ve, of course, wanted to do, and we’ve wanted to be legal, and we’re very very excited.

Congratulations to Ellen and Portia! You ladies are now definitely our favorite lesbian couple, so we hope to receive an invitation. Hint, hint…
