DEGENERES PLANS PRE-WEDDING TRIP TO MEET DE ROSSI'S FAMILY

TV host ELLEN DeGENERES is planning a trip to Australia to meet her fiancee PORTIA DE ROSSI's family - ahead of their planned wedding.
DeGeneres revealed her plans to wed the Australian actress during her daytime show last week (15May08), a day after samesex marriages were declared legal in California.
And now the lesbian couple is hoping to travel to de Rossi's native country, so DeGeneres can meet her grandmother - who won't be able to travel to the U.S. for the wedding.
DeGeneres says, "I've met Portia's mother and her cousins, and I mentioned last night that we should go (to Australia) for Christmas. I can't wait to get there.
"I'd like to get the show there. I'm going to push hard to make that happen."
