Hot wheels! Ellen DeGeneres and Portia arrive in style for a date at the art gallery

Forget Men in Black, it was all about the ladies in LA when Ellen DeGeneres and wife Portia Di Rossi stepped out of their sportscar wearing matching dark hues.

Portia, in particular, looked like she could join Will Smith on a government-appointed mission as she alighted from the silver Porsche.

But while the clothes were sombre, the mood was anything but for this happiest of married couples.

Hot wheels: Ellen DeGeneres and wife Portia Di Rossi step out of their silver Porsche as they enjoyed an afternoon out in the trendy Venice Beach area of Los Angeles yesterday

Hand-in-hand: The couple looked very much in love as they strolled around with their hands entwined

Talk show behemoth Ellen, 53, couldn't take her eyes off her stunning wife,38, as they laughed and held hands on route to an art gallery in the trendy Venice Beach area.

The pair, who married in 2008 after the law in California was changed to allow same sex couples to marry, couldn't even keep their hands off one another long enough to feed the meter.

Ellen grinned and patted her wife's bum as Portia pushed quarters into the machine.
The Emmy winner has much to smile about, with a much-mooted Britney coup rumoured to be coming up for her CBS show.

Matchy-matchy: They were also wearing co-ordinated dark hues in the wardrobe department, with Ellen team her black top half with casual jeans and flat shoes


Britney, 29, made a rare appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2008, where she appeared in a skit alongside the host herself - dressed in Dickensian clothes for a Christmas Carol parody.

It has been reported that she will again join Ellen for sketches, and will also perform live on a later show to promote her new album Femme Fatale.

Portia has had a tougher start to the year.

She was devastated when her ABC series, Better Off Ted was cancelled late last year and turned down a chance to appear on Dancing With the Stars after much painful deliberation.

But her life with Ellen offers much in the way of consolation.

Aside from the flash cars and the Beverly Hills home - where they exchanged their vows in front of friends and family, the couple take time to enjoy lavish holidays together.

They spent Christmas in St Barts, where onlookers couldn't fail to note their open affection and smiling faces.
