Ellen announces she’s getting married – live on TV
Ellen DeGeneres is getting married – and she announced it to a live studio audience on the recording of one of her shows – and they, in true America style, congratulated her with a standing ovation.
Ellen, who’s been with wife-to-be, former Ally McBeal star Portia de Rossi, since 2004, made the decision to get hitched following the news that gay marriage is going to be legalised in the State of California.
The show where she breaks the big news – due to be aired tomorrow – also includes a video message from Madge congratulating the couple on their news.

In other news…
* Kate Thornton has given birth, to baby Ben, both mother and baby are well and happy. Good times.

After winning two Brits, and making the most successful comeback of any of the 90’s bands, the boys were meant to be taking a break, but with a Boyzone reunion just around the corner they just can’t afford to stay out of the limelight…and so back to the studio they go.
* And sticking with a Take That theme…Robbie Williams ‘RudeBox’ album anyone? Look no further...Amazon.co.uk priced 46p!
* Eight out of ten people don’t know how to boil an egg, and even fewer can roast a chicken. The poll – for Somerfield supermarket – shows that 37% of people don’t know what meat is in shepherd’s pie.
