Ellen DeGeneres announced on her talk show today that she is replacing Paula Abdul on American Idol! 

I was waiting for Ellen to say she was joking, but she wasn’t!  Ellen, 51, said, “I have a big announcement to make.  No one knows this … I am going to be the new judge on ‘American Idol.’”

WOW…this is GREAT!  I LOVE Ellen.  I might actually watch the show now! 

I can’t wait to see how Ellen changes the show!

Tomorrow, Saturday, November 15th, citizens in America and Canada will be getting together to protest for equal rights for gays!  Prop 8 has been a HUGE topic…even more so than the Presidential race.  The majority of the California voters voted Yes for Prop 8; therefore, it takes away gay and lesbian rights to marry.  There was this huge campaign that went on prior to the vote involving some pretty huge movies stars and well known gays and lesbians wanting everyone in California to vote “No” for prop 8.  However, their campaign didn’t end up being strong enough.  The majority of the voters wanted marriage to remain between a man and a woman. 

I have been pretty quiet about this topic.  It is something not everyone wants to talk about or hear.  However, I must comment on all of this crap. 

First, I am all about equality.  I have many gay friends.  I think anyone who is in love should be able to get married!  I will be getting married in March, and who am I to deny the right of marriage to anyone!  I believe EVERYONE should have the same rights!!  With that said, the people who wanted to vote in California already did!!  The majority didn’t feel they wanted to change the definition of marriage.  They were asked a question on a ballot, and they simply answered. 

Some protesters want to say those opposing voters were confused by the wording, or they didn’t have enough information.  Well, we could simply say the same thing about the way they voted for the President.  If we want to have a re-vote, then we have to vote again for the President too.  Starting with Clinton and Obama in the preliminarys again….I mean hell….nobody would have even voted for John Edwards.  After everyone found out he cheated on his wife, all of his votes might have gone to Hillary Clinton.  We would be in a totally different place right now.

So, I say just give it a rest.  Pushing people to change isn’t going to make them change.  If we protested to change every damn vote, then why even vote at all??  Some people out there are just not ready to change.  Some people don’t want equality for all.  In this country, we go with the majority.  The majority wanted Barack Obama as the President, so there ya go!  We voted him in!  Obama doesn’t want same-sex marriage…so don’t look for any help from him!

Is it fair?  No….life isn’t fair.  Will it ever be fair?  Sure…life changes.  People change.  We have our first black President.   You just can’t give up hope.  If Obama wouldn’t have won, I would have hated to see riots or protests.  However, I do believe every little bit helps.  I just hope these protests don’t get out of hand. 

Since this issue will affect every state, protests are being held everywhere.  If you want to be apart of this, CLICK HERE to see what you can do tomorrow!!  While I don’t believe we should change a majority vote just because people are pissed, I do believe you should stand up for what you believe in!  So, if you feel like getting out there, then please do so!

I bet there will be some really cool pictures from the L.A. rally tomorrow!!  I hope Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossie are there….they are my favorites!!!

Ellen DeGeneres showed up to the Emmy’s last night with Portia de Rossi and could not have looked happier!  Portia had on her big, pink engagement ring, and Ellen talked about the wedding!

Ellen and Portia confirmed they have a wedding date set, and Ellen told People, “Planning a wedding is very stressful. It is crazy. My gardener is now invited. I can’t wait to be married. I feel like it is long overdue. And I think someday people will look back on this like women not having the right to vote and segregation and anything else that seems ridiculous like we all don’t have the same rights.”

It’s really great these two can now get married!!!  You can just see the hearts floating off of them!  They are truly in love, and I wish them all the best!

Portia de Rossi is dating Ellen DeGeneres and everyone knows she is a lesbian, but according to her she felt a little uncomfortable bringing her real life sexuality to filming a sex scene with Joely Richardson on ‘Nip/Tuck’. 

Portia, who played Richardson’s lover, in ‘Nip/Tuck’ told People magazine,

“I hate gratuitous sex scenes. I’m a prude, I really am. I related to Joely’s character so much more than my own. She was having a really hard time with her sexuality, and it was difficult for her to tell people she was gay. To hear her struggle like that was very emotional for me.”

However, Joely said she really enjoyed the sex scenes with Portia. She confessed,

“I have no problems kissing women. It’s not the first time I have done lesbian scenes. I have heard Ellen was jealous. She has been on set. She is great and Portia is lovely. Please don’t think there is anything going on between us.”

Portia also had been worried about being type-cast as a lesbian is she took the role, but Ellen was very quick in telling her not to worry. 

“My relationship with Ellen is so public, and I thought, ‘Am I going to play a romantic lead again?’ I had that one moment of, ‘Does this mean I’ll be typecast as a lesbian?’ And Ellen turned to me and said, ‘So what?’ And I thought, ‘Oh, yeah, right, so what?’I was offered romantic lead roles, and I turned them down because the lesbian seemed more interesting to me. It’s so crazy because I never faced any kind of discrimination. Here, it’s all scripted, but it still stings. It was a very interesting thing for me to experience. I’d walk away at the end of the day not feeling very good.”

There have been all these rumors swirling around that Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi have broken up!  But don’t believe everything you hear….because they haven’t.  Reps for Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi have said there is no truth to those rumors and the couple is still together.

I guess those rumors started because Ellen was really upset over that whole dog issue.  She was crying a lot and people just assumed it must have been because there was something else going on (like a break up).  How stupid!  LEAVE ELLEN ALONE!!!!  CAN”T YOU SEE SHE’S NOT WELL RIGHT NOW!! SHE’S UPSET ABOUT HER DOG!! (okay enough of acting like Chris Crocker)   Ellen and Portia are a cute couple!  I think they will last awhile.
