What's in a name?
Ellen and Portia Degeneres had a little fun with X17online photographers yesterday who couldn't remember the name of that little show that Ellen recently quit. You know, the one that might have the word "Stars" in its name or be on HBO?
"I was never on Dancing With The Stars," Ellen laughed as she told our clueless guys that the show she was on was called American Idol!
At least the guys did know the name "Degeneres", which Portia recently took on as her own.
But the ladies didn't seem to mind the mix-up and were appropriately giddy after hearing the news that several other same-sex couples would be able to marry as early as next week, just as Ellen and Portia did back in 2008, before Prop 8 put a stop to the ceremonies.
