Since her tiny 2008 marriage to funny woman Ellen DeGeneres, de Rossi resisted the urge to officially change her identity until 2010. It wasn’t until August 6th of that year when she filed for a legal name-change; and the petition was promptly granted. Now known as “Portia Lee James DeGeneres”, she managed to be one of the few celebs who made her already-long name practically novel-length in her marriage.
