Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi are set to marry on US President George W. Bush's Texas ranch.

The US talk show host was interviewing the president's newly-married daughter, Jenna Hager (nee Bush), when Jenna showed off a picture of the ceremony.

Ellen said: "So, the ranch was a great place to get married - it looked like nobody could fly over and get pictures or bother you, really! So, can Portia and I borrow it for our wedding? Can we get the ranch?"

Sitting next to her mother Laura Bush, Jenna laughed and replied: "Sure!"

Ellen and Portia's nuptials are set to be a star-studded affair.

'SexyBack' star Justin Timberlake recently offered to pen a song for the ceremony.

Appearing on Ellen's show, Justin said: "You should have an original wedding song - I think it's only fitting. Write down everything you want to say to Portia and Portia write down everything you want to say to Ellen and I'll put it to music and it will be amazing!"

Ellen confirmed earlier this month she and Portia are planning to get married in California, after the top court in the state ruled against the ban on gay marriage.
