Everyone loves Ellen DeGeneres. I remember when I was an undergrad and she came out on the cover of Time magazine. Her career took a little hit after the announcement but she has such a winning personality, it was only inevitable that she'd charm America all over again.
When Ellen legally married Portia de Rossi in California in 2008 and their wedding was on the cover of People magazine, it was a giant step forward for the gay community. And when they went on Oprah recently to talk about their relationship and marriage equality, it was another step towards equality.
This is what happens when gays and lesbians get married. If the couples is generally a likeable pair, telling their friends, neighbors, colleagues and families about their wedding makes it more mainstream.
And as the article concludes, "[Ellen and Portia] look like countless other newlyweds. Then again, not."
What did you think of Ellen and Portia's celebrity gay wedding?
