Well that didn’t take long! As soon as gay marriage was legalized officially, Ellen Degeneres the talk show host and stand up comic announced on her show in a taping that she’s getting married to her longtime girlfriend Portia De Rossi. Consider this to be the first gay celebrity to be married in California.

The episode will air today on The Ellen Degeneres show and I’m sure the announcement will be all over youtube later today as well.

Many more gay celebrities will follow indeed.

Jodie Foster and Lance Bass anyone?
