Ellen DeGeneres and Anne Heche met each other at the 1997 Oscar night and fell in love. Their relationship lasted until 2000. In an interview, September 4th, 2001, for Barbara Walters, Anne spoke about that Oscar night: "I saw the most ravishing woman I had ever seen in my life standing across the room. Her name was Ellen DeGeneres. She was radiating. I think at certain times in people's lives you just radiate an energy and a glow of fabulousness. And that was her. I had never seen anybody so lit up." They slept together that night. "Up until that point, that was the best sex I'd ever had," says Heche, who says she had never before had sex with a woman. "I felt cared for … I felt free to express a part of me that I had not been able to express with a man. I felt sensuous and sexual in a way I hadn't before."
