<p>Could there be another wedding at the Bush ranch in Crawford, Tex., this time between two women? During an upcoming episode of her talk show, <em>Ellen DeGeneres</em> asked <em>Jenna Bush Hager</em> and first lady <em>Laura Bush</em> for permission to use the spread for her planned wedding to longtime partner <em>Portia de Rossi</em>.&#8221;The ranch was a great place to get married,&#8221; DeGeneres said. &#8220;It looked like nobody could fly over and get pictures or bother you, really.&#8221; When Hager agreed, DeGeneres followed with &#8220;So, can we borrow it for our wedding?&#8221;</p>
<p>A smiling Hager responded, &#8220;Sure,&#8221; People.com reports. The White House did not immediately offer further comment yesterday. The episode of the show was taped last week and is expected to air Wednesday.</p>
<p>DeGeneres announced plans to marry de Rossi, her longtime partner,  following the California Supreme Court&#8217;s reversal this month of a law banning gay marriage. Texas does not sanction same-sex marriage.</p>
<p>Last week, DeGeneres asked <em>John McCain</em> if he would walk her down the aisle; the presidential candidate just laughed.</p>

<!-- BREAK --></span></p>
<p><em><a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/related/topic/Britney+Spears?tid=informline">Britney Spears</a></em> is at it again: The pop princess has been videotaped &#8220;numerous times&#8221; in the last few weeks using a British accent, reports <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/related/topic/People+Magazine?tid=informline">People.com</a>. She sounds like a Brit even when angry; on a shopping trip earlier this month, the star used the accent while screaming at paparazzi.</p>
<p>&#8220;She could simply be behaving this way for attention, for sympathy, or any other reason,&#8221; said psychologist <em>Renee A. Cohen</em>, who is not treating Spears. Without a formal evaluation, a diagnosis would be &#8220;foolish,&#8221; but the psychologist did wonder: &#8220;When Britney uses the British accent, or appears to take on another identity, does she know she&#8217;s Britney Spears?&#8221;</p>
