LOS ANGELES - Rocker Melissa Etheridge plans to tie the knot at the end of this year with her companion of two years, actress Tammy Lynn Michaels.

"This is the first wedding for both of them," Etheridge's publicist, Marcel Pariseau, said Tuesday. He declined to reveal plans for the ceremony except to say it would take place in Los Angeles.

Etheridge, 41, has been dating Michaels, 28, for about two years, Pariseau said.

The musician shares custody of a daughter and a son with former partner Julie Cypher. The two made news in 2000 when they revealed that musician David Crosby was the sperm donor for their children, who were delivered by Cypher.

Does California recognize same-sex marriage? If not, then what they're having is not a wedding and, most certainly, not a marriage.

Declining career(s)? The "look at me, I'm a lesbian" gimmick has been a pretty reliable indicator.

Its nice to know that ugly, middle-age rock stars can still pull young hotties, regardless of sexual preference.

Yup. Last gasp for Melissa and a chance at recognition for Ms Thang. It will last a year, tops.

Hurl. Isn't it interesting to note that homosexuals seem to go through many different "partners", pretending to be married to them, much more than heterosexuals? Does anyone have any statistics on the length of homosexual relationships vs. heterosexual ones? I'm not talking dating here, I'm talking married/living together.

Shouldn't that be "Strap-on Tools"?

Etheridge has been out for years, so it may be genuine devotion (she's definitely getting the better end of that deal - her girlfriend is a lot better looking than her).

Maybe she should have a word with Anne Heche.

Oh, I see. "Dating," that's what it's called now.

I have no stats, but I do know they tend to lickety split up more often.

The real question: Who has custody of David Crosby's kid?

Melissa's newest future ex-girlfriend definitely is a hottie, but there's a vaguely disturbing Joey Heatherton vibe going on there that gives me SCTV willies.

It's a lie. There can't be a wedding. Weddings occur between a man and a woman. Sorry, but this is all propaganda. More leftwing socialist amoral BS.

Whatever these perverts do, it won't be recognised legally will it? After all, the CA voters outlawed gay marriage, didn't they?
