Mandy Rogers Is Changing Her Name Again!

Portia de Rossi was brought into this world as Amanda Lee Rogers, but she legally glamourized her name when she was 15 and now she's switching that shit up again. TMZ reports that Portia wants to be known as Portia Lee James DeGeneres from now on and is asking the court to grant this. Portia and Ellen DeGeneres got married two years ago.

I know that Portia is changing her name for love, but I still don't understand! Why would you ever want to be known as something other than Portia de Rossi?! Portia de Rossi sounds like the name of a split bottle of wine you might find in a mini-fridge at a Radisson. Portia de Rossi sounds like the name of an Italian contessa who has come to Falcon Crest to seek revenge on Melissa Agretti. Portia de Rossi sounds like the name of the body wash your grandma gave you for Christmas.

Portia de Rossi is the best made up name ever! Can't Ellen change her name to Ellen de Rossi instead?

Homosexuality is one of those hot topics on the 'you will never win' list e.g religion and politics...

Mine is to say everything on earth is wonderfully and perfectly made... nothing is a mistake... take sometime to get in touch with simple things like nature, how oceans move, the sun sets, the moon rises... everything is perfect and how it should be ... I'm simply saying nothing is an 'oops' on earth.

I don't in the slightest bit purport to know how or why people think their homo's but I do know that the human being by virtue of the fact that they have souls and free-will will convince themselves of absolutely anything for justifications sake...

Just me 2 cents...

There should be a world-wide law to love MK!

Gay marriage needs to be legalized so Ned Flanders can get remarried... It's been a long time since Maude passed.

I've always liked Portia, so I hope Ellen doesn't take the Mellisa Etheridge route when this marriage ends.

Antibitch... who is Alan Turing (sorry, I don't google anything 'cause it always leads to porn)?

If you dont like gay marriage blame the straight people, they are the ones who keep giving birth to gay babies.

Until they ID that gay gene, then they can just start aborting them all.

I love how gays marrying violates the "sanctity of marriage" yet domestic violence, adultery, etc are perfectly fine.

*************************************************

Exactly. We have a near 50% divorce rate. There is nothing sanctified about marriage between straights. Don't fucking kid yourself. I guess kids are automatically better off in homes where there is a 50/50 chance of a divorce than with a gay couple? The ignorance is astounding.

Not to mention the implications that view has for infertile, straight couples. If marriage is only for breeding what about all the childless couples? There are a few interesting theories about the evolutionary advantage to homosexuality, but I won't bother arguing with people whose views are based on fairy tales.

I'm sorry as much as I like MK and all his wondrous gayness and Co. I know it you know we all know it... it just ain't right... sorry if you may think I have a stick up me arse too but even pollen knows where to land, animals know which sex is which.. why are we humans trying to make life so difficult it's bad enough as it is.. oh well... I can hear homohards heading my way with placards and strap ons so moving it along...

LET ME MAKE THIS PERFECTLY CLEAR:

Homosexuality is a NATURAL part of the world. Some beings are (gay), some aren't, depending on how one is genetically wired. Heterosexuality is for procreation. Sex (or even laboratory sex) is necessary for procreation, but procreation isn't necessary to have sex. Nature has it's own way of monitoring the population while keeping it decorated and entertained.

Giraffes practice homosexuality, as do many others non-human animals.

Love,
Mabel

Apparently Ellen likes'em with a coupla personalities like that.

heh, heh, heh

Seriously, I find Ellen inoffensive and all that, but wouldn't Jane Lynch be SO much better in ALL Ellen's roles? Shit, I bet even Portia would have more fun with Jane.

I've seen Jane lunch a a few other things and she plays sue sylvester in EVERY role. but ellen and jane would make the bestest lesbian power couple.

I just can't help but love me some ellen.

Call it what ever you like, it will never be “marriage” and it will NEVER be normal.

Churchy people like to think their bible or whatever invented "marriage," despite the fact that Jews, Muslims, Catholics, Protestants, all seem to claim it as a sacrament of sorts within their individual belief systems. I don't know enough about Islam to poke fun at it, but the Jews and Christians both claim the 10 commandments. Funny thing about that top 10 list - it mentions things like murder, thieving, and all sorts of crimes, but homosexuality doesn't make the Top 10. And yet I never see any church group protesting prison marriages of convicted murderers, thieves, adulterers, etc.

Sweetheart, if your religion wants to lay claim to the word "marriage," then go right ahead. The government can remove the word in all of its forms from the legal vernacular. Everyone under the law will have a civil union, and that is all YOU will have under the auspices of the law. Your church can proudly proclaim your ass as married. It won't mean a fucking thing to me, and it won't make you special. Except in your loving church.

Well! Good ol' Mandy Rogers from the back blocks of Geelong, Victoria, has (read 'THINKS she has') come a looong way since her spontaneous turn to lesbianism. How damned convenient that she happens to have 'wed' one of the most well known 'out of the closet' lesbians in America.....certainly well known enough to lend some much craved exposure to the talentless, yet desperate for fame Mandy....should I say 'Portia'.

The name 'DeGeneres' pulls a bit more interest than 'de Rossi' - but she'll always be seen as 'that fame hungry bit that landed Ellen DeGeneres, in order to become a 'celeb'. After the divorce, she'll land some famous actor, declaring (like Lilo) that she's really 'bi' underneath, and all will be well........(damned opportunists!!!....Bah!! But I must say that she's more tenatious than Lynds)

I'm thinking Portia will soon realize that she prefers penis and dump Ellen's ass and get a nice, juicy settlement. I've never sensed that Portia was gay. ever.

Portia didn't change for Ellen. I think she was in a pretty long relationship with Ringo Starr's daughter or step-daughter. I remember these pictures of the two of them during her Ally McBeal days and that is pretty much the first time I'd ever heard of Portia de Rossi. In all her time as a celebrity or almost-celebrity, I think she's been gay.

I remember the rumor that I heard back when they started dating. Ellen spotted her across the room backstage at some awards show. 10 min later she was muff diving her in the back of a limo.

I remember Portia in Scream two with those really big eyebrows and wondering who in the hell that bitch was.
