Scoop: Portia and Ellen still together

World’s most famous lesbian couple fail to generate exciting headlines again, today

In the absence of online gossip to the contrary, US talk show host and comedian Ellen DeGeneres and her partner, the very photogenic actress Portia de Rossi can be assumed to be still happily married, DIVA can suppose.

 

The annoyingly uncontroversial vegan couple, who live in Beverly Hills with a number of domestic pets, married in 2008, in a ceremony that gave many journalists something to write about. Since then, however, they have not really done anything to warrant much in the way of press coverage, although de Rossi did publish a book, Unbearable Lightness, in 2010.

 

It is hoped that the theoretically extremely newsworthy celesbian couple will make headlines at some point soon, as just about any kind of coverage of the pair's presumably interesting life together would be likely to increase web-traffic exponentially.

    I think they are the sexist couple on the planet, Why should they have to flounce about and tell the world anything! Why should they have to prove anything, its their life together, not ours. They married for love, trust, respect and all the other beautiful things that come with love and marriage!! They didnt marry to please the world and the paparazi!! Go Ellen and Portia, XX

    Seems completely pointless to write an article highlighting the fact that they have'nt generated any tabloid articles!!! Is this not a good thing? Demonstrating that they are a normal married couple living a content and normal life without the tabloid stories of affairs, drugs, rehabs & dramas that most other "celeb" couples generate!! Long may theyre happy blissfully uneventful (in your opinion) life continue! Am a bit dissapointed with you DIVA to be honest.

    I agree! as a lesbian this humour offends me...as does all humour! thank god we've progressed to a point where gay ladies are so normal, so normally normal that you can barely even see us. If i could write 'horrah' in tiny, barely noticable letters i would, and then scrub myself clean, such would be my shame

    Hi Mitch and Nicola, Thanks for reading and for taking time to post a comment. Just to clarify, the story about Ellen and Portia is a satire (all the "Scoops" on this site are satirical) which is making more or less the same point both of you make, trying to show up the way that, to a tabloid gossip writer, Ellen and Portia having a happy life together might be disappointing as it doesn't provide any sensational headlines. It's intentionally ironic that we're running a story on there being, essentially, no story to run, and of course we are very happy that they are happy. Hope that makes sense. Best, Eden
