Portia De Rossi In Out Magazine: Star Talks Being Gay And Life With Ellen DeGeneres In New Issue

Portia De Rossi Reveals Intimate Details Of Life With Ellen To Out Magazine

"Arrested Development" star Portia de Rossi positively sizzles on the cover of the new Out magazine.

Inside the May issue, the 40-year-old actress mostly speaks at length about her latest projects, but also opens up about being openly gay in Hollywood.

“I really, honestly think that anybody who is openly gay and visible is powerful," de Rossi tells writer Shana Naomi Krochmal. "It doesn’t matter what you do, you are impacting people.”

Of her relationship with wife Ellen DeGeneres -- who, incidentally, ranks second in the magazine's "Power 50" list, which can be found in the same issue -- de Rossi notes, “We’ve settled into happily married life. We really support each other in whatever we’re doing and we’re incredibly happy, which is why you don’t see us in the press so much.”
