Ellen Degeneres and Portia de Rossi are reportedly splitting up after three years. Apparently Ellen’s sobbing breakdown on her show had little to do with a little dog named Iggy, and more to do with a little pussy. Star Magazine says:

A source said that their 15 year age difference is having an effect. "Portia has been telling Ellen she’s very unhappy at home. When it comes down to it, she wants to be with someone younger ad hotter. She wants out, but Ellen has been begging her to stay. Portia is really everything in this world to her.”

Don’t forget that Ellen’s breasts can touch her knees, and so can her butt, plus she’s got that mysterious old lady odor down there. A little whiff does wonders for losing weight, but it kills the romance.

The word on the streets of cutting edge TV is that Joely Richardson’s character on Nip/Tuck is going to have a lovah this season, but it’s not your typical affair.

The British actress will bed openly gay Portia in the upcoming series of the hit US plastic surgery drama, after her character Julia McNamara falls for the mother of a boob job patient, played by the former Ally McBeal star.

The pair’s scenes so far are said to be so explicit that even crew members used to the series’ frequent sexual storylines have been shocked.

An on set source said: "Portia’s character is going to be involved in a torrid relationship with Joely’s character over about 10 episodes.

"It’s going to be shocking stuff. So far, the pair’s sex scenes have been wild. Even the crew have been shocked by what they have seen."

Having trouble concentrating now? Just picture Portia with Ellen. Yeah, we thought that would do the trick.
