Ellen Degeneres announced on her show yesterday that now that the California Supreme Court overturned the ban on gay marriage, she is ready to wed long-time girlfriend Portia de Rossi.

Ellen told the Advocate:

“I’m thrilled that the California supreme court overturned the ban on gay marriage. I can’t wait to get married. We all deserve the same rights, and I believe that someday we’ll look back on this and not allowing gays to marry will seem as absurd as not allowing women to vote.

P.S. I’m registered at Crate & Barrel.”

Congrats to Ellen and Portia! What do you think of the ban on gay marriage being overturned in California?
