Ellen & Portia’s Big Day… In Pictures!

They might be grainy, stalker-esque snaps, but they’re about as good as its gonna get - for the moment, at least.

The first celebrity gay wedding since the California laws changed between talkshow host Ellen DeGeneres and actress Portia De Rossi went off without a hitch!

Portia looked gorgeous, as usual, in her Zac Posen gown, and Ellen looked radiant in a white suit that seemed vaguely familiar (perhaps because she always seems to wear the same thing).

More happy snaps after the jump.

Ellen & Portia to Wed This Weekend

Talk show host Ellen DeGeneres and her actress girlfriend Portia De Rossi will marry this weekend in California, according to a source.

The pair, who have been together since 2004, have planned a small, intimate ceremony. Only a select few close family and friends will be in attendance.

DeGeneres, 50, made the announcement that she would wed her girlfriend on her talk show in May, following the California Supreme Court’s ruling that same sex couples would now have the right to marry.

“It’s something that we’ve wanted to do and we want it to be legal and we are very, very excited,” DeGeneres said on her show.

Perhaps not-so-secret gay couple Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson should tag along with DeGeneres and De Rossi and make a day of it??

Portia De Rossi: Walking Skeleton

Portia De Rossi, Aussie actress and girlfriend of American comedian, Ellen Degeneres, looked like a walking skeleton as she strolled down the red carpet at today’s Oscars ceremony!

She used to look so beautiful in her Ally MacBeal days (and don’t get me wrong, she’s still beautiful), but now, she’s so…thin!!! She’s lost so much weight since the last time I’ve seen her, and the dress is just hanging off her skinny frame.

Ellen needs to start feeding her more…home-cooked meals, and such.

On a positive note, the dress is really stunning…it would just look a whole lot better if she had a little more meat on her bones, and if her shoulders didn’t protrude so much.
