[Ellen_portiafan1]

I found this online, thought some of you might wanna read it.

She's a good actress but a total wackjob.

[justcarly]

I really don't like her LOL she's a tad weird. :p

[Stephie22]

I dont like her too.

[Jace]

Thanks for posting that interview. It was interesting to read.
But I'm really shocked, that woman is sooo weird... :irre:
I don't like her either.

[DegeneresDerossi2007]

that women scares me

[AnastasiaBeavrhausen]

Geez I read the first page and had to stop. She drives me insane (no pun intended)...:scoolblue:

[tcsced]

When I was with Ellen, I was telling people, "If you come out, it's gonna be better for you." But I honestly don't know that, and I used to say I did. I stood in front of the gay community march in Washington [the Millennium March on Washington in April 2000] and I said, "As a straight woman that I was before I met Ellen, I had so many gay friends, but they never told me. You must tell your straight friends, because then we can help you."

Okay, so she refers to herself as a straight person after she was with a woman?:eek: How can you consider yourself a completely straight person after you have been with someone of the same sex?:confused: I never believed she was gay anyway, I just always felt like she used Ellen in a way, and in Ellen's Allure article Ellen even said she felt like she had been used. I think all Anne ever wanted out of that relationship was publicity, and she got it, but I don't think she got the good kind she was probably wanting!

[jlilest]

That is a fairly old interview.

I think that people should, if they feel the need to, be able to label themselves.
I would expect that it is possible to fall for a person that is not of the gender that you would normally fall for. Just because you do that, you might still consider yourself of your normal sexual orientation. I think that someone here has spoken of being in a different mix of that sort of situation.

We don't really know what happened.

I don't suppose it would do any good to suggest that we refrain from Anne bashing. I don't think Ellen makes a practice of saying bad things about Anne, at least publicly, so why should we?

[tcsced]

James, I know I just put my two cents in about Anne, but I agree with you. Ellen has taught me to be a better person and not saying bad things about people is one of those things I'm working on, incluind about Anne. I have never cared for her, but I try not to hate her at the same time.

Like you said, we don't, nor will we probably ever, know what happened so therefore we should not judge...anymore!!:p

[misskitty]

yea me too :eek:

I agree with you James. I have never heard Ellen talk bad about Anne, so we shouldn't either, but it's hard not to. Not that I want to say bad things, but it's hard not to say anything when I read Anne's interviews. I think there is something not right with her. She contradicts herself and well I think she is crazy. I feel bad saying it, but I do think that. She's a good actress though. I can't deny that.
I will take your advice and from now on if I have nothing nice to say about her I will not say anything at all.:D

I do think the same!

Though i have only been knowing the relationship between them a few months ago, when i first read about them, i thought this woman was treating Ellen as a "tool" but not and "end" - for publicity and for fame... and dunno if she's looking for money...

Anyway, Ellen is having a better life now, sure better than those days she was with this woman! And we should be glad Ellen could find it out when she was still young ~

Well said... Anne was a loon!:uglyconf: Now Ellen has it all!:D

Thank you for the article.

I seen another article I read (it was a link to the same posting), it's from a gentleman by the name of Eric Peterson.

I'm not trying to make anyone mad or upset but I thought it was a good point.

Please be more sensitive to those of us who can be attracted to both men and women, instead of making it appear a farce. The community seems to have a hatred of Anne Heche for leaving Ellen and marrying a man. Yet we easily forgive Portia leaving her partner for Ellen, because she's another girl?


Here is the rest of it:

My thoughts on Anne are that she must have some integrity..otherwise she'd be a veryyyy rich woman writing a tell all book about her and Ellen's relationship.With no doubt a movie deal on the book as well. :rolleyes:

I agree. we all know Anne is in dire straits over child maintenance since the recent court ruling, and i;m assuming she knew her finances weren't too hot for some time, and yet she hasnt sold her story etc

I do think Anne was good for Ellen at the time, and also without Anne we would not have had ITWCT2, and i think we all appreciate that movie :p:rolleyes:

[katmae]

Oh yes by all means ITWCT2 is a gem..loved seeing Ellen and Sharon together....can we hope for another hot love scene from Ellen?? Wishful thinking me thinks. lol:p

[Ellen_portiafan1]

Can someone post a link for ellen's Allure magazine interview. The one that Nicole mentioned. Please!!!:D

You are right about this. However, I do think the problem about Anne it's not exactly about she left Elle and "become" straight I thinks the problem is the way that happen. It was so fast and she acted a little crazy about it.

[EllenNRossiforever]

anne was only with ellen for fame hands down. ellen was big at the time and anne came right in and got what she wanted and left. i call them land sharks :D

[CourtneyB]

Lmao right you are! I always thought Anne was weird when she said when she saw Ellen she saw "the room clear out" and she "was walking on air over to her" and wrote her number on a napkin on Ellen's boob!

[jlilest]

Do we really have to start saying bad things about Anne?

This is a very old thread and Ellen doesn't to my knowledge publicly bad mouth Anne.

She has had two relationships since Anne.

Ellen has moved on, perhaps we can too.

[zoeak]

Someone mentioned If These Walls Could Talk 2, and I just have to agree that it's a gem. Regardless of whatever else is going on with Anne, and despite Ellen saying repeatedly that she felt so uncomfortable doing that love scene, I personally think that's one of the greatest portrayals of a lesbian relationship on film to date. It's natural, it's beautiful, it's funny and sad and perfectly balanced, and it's what I showed my mother and said 'look, what I want isn't different from what everyone else wants, I just want to share my life with someone, a home and partner, nothing strange or weird about it' and my mother got it. And I don't know where it came from, or what the motives were, but Anne wrote and directed that, and I will forever be grateful.

(Also, I think she's cute, a great actress, and I loved Men In Trees...)

Agree james Ellen now marreid To Portia derossi.Love PortiaEllen marreid they are so happy and in love just like Ryan Seacrest said he never seen tow people so much in love like E&P




Anna well she something ....

[Jats]

Non of us were there (in or even close to ) Anne/Ellen's relationship and therefore do not actually know what goes on. As such, it would be extremely unhealthy to judge.

Its just a relationship that did not work out.

[AnastasiaBeavrhausen]

Annes a loon and I will say it. There I said it!:irre::irre:

[CourtneyB]

Annes a loon and I will say it. There I said it!:irre::irre:

*laughs silently* I DO HAVE PROOF OF WHAT I WROTE THAT ANNE SAID... She said it in a documentary interview with Ellen... Its on YT I'll post the link when I get home.

[EllenNRossiforever]

Annes a loon and I will say it. There I said it!:irre::irre:


AMEN!! well said lmao

[jlilest]

One more try...

Could we please let this go.

Ellen doesn't bad mouth her publicly, perhaps we can try and follow her example.

Amen to that. Just let this all go.

[hamsterrific]

I just want to say that I love Anne and think she is an amazing actress (I felt bad when Men in Trees got cancelled).

I believe there was pure, honest love between Anne and Ellen and Anne stood by Ellen (and Ellen, likewise stood by Anne) during a pivotal time in both their careers (Ellen's groundbreaking and controversial coming-out both in her show and real life, Anne's leading-lady status going into jeopardy because of her romance with Ellen). It was a very different time (don't we all say how far we've come since then?) and a very difficult one for both. I really don't see how going public about her relationship with Ellen at that time could have helped Anne's career. I feel that at that time, it was a career-killer to do that.

The breakup was sad and sordid but that's the way it goes for some of us, too. Surely there had been many, many happy times shared between the two and it saddens me when the entire relationship is sullied just by what happened at the bitter end. I'm all for remembering the good times and moving on. I'm glad both have moved on and are happy with their respective lives.

Last but not the least, I love everyone in this forum. We all disagree once in a while (we can't all share the same opinions about things) but the most important thing is we must be able to disagree in a civilized manner.

There I've said by piece/peace. I shall keep my mouth shut for some time as an act of contrition. :)

[AnastasiaBeavrhausen]

Well when I read it that way, its all true. I think I was just bitter because she dumped Ellen so bad... but yeah all that you said was true... and Anne kinda freaked out there for awhile.... but yeah Im with ya Ham!

[EllenDeRossi]

I read anne's book and I didnt realize how crazy her childhood was growing up, and herself as a adult, i think shes talented in her own way i did like her, but i dont really follow her career they both have moved on so i think it was for the best that anne snapped.

[Degrossi]

didn't anne have a baby not too long ago.

[jlilest]

It appears that she did and named him Atlas...
Anne Heche names new baby boy Atlas (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29642815/)

[Betsy1]

I also read Anne`s book. It helps you understand her. I did feel bad for Ellen when they broke up.
I think Anne is a great actress. There`s a movie called "Gracie`s Choice" they keep running on Lifetime. She was great in it.
I also LOVED Men In Trees and was bummed when that was canceled.:wallbash:

[Jats]

One's great talent does not always correspond/ corelate directly with one's character. :eek:

If a choice is to be made between the two, I would always choose character.

[cuore]

Thanks hamsterrific. I agree with you that the love between them was honest and pure and in a relationship only love matters...

[shephren]

I am not a big one fan of Anne, but for those who admires her and who have no pictures of Ellen with her, these are nice. Sorry for those who certainly already saw them several times! :)
