De Rossi playing lesbian on "Nip/Tuck"
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Portia de Rossi will play a lesbian in the upcoming fifth season of FX's "Nip/Tuck," a role that should not prove too much of a stretch.
The Australian actress, the real-life partner of Ellen DeGeneres, will recur as a manipulative mother whose teen daughter wants to have plastic surgery.
De Rossi, who rose to fame as man-eating lawyer Nell Porter on "Ally McBeal," most recently starred in "Arrested Development."
