Ellen DeGeneres, as everybody knows, isn't the most combative broad around (probably why she has so many damn fans). But here's some good news, Ellen: You have yet more famous help fighting the gay-marriage battle. Our Miami snoop, Martin Haro, spoke with Project Runway’s fabulously together Christian Siriano at the Victoria’s Secret show over the weekend. Christian was with his BF, whom he announced he wants to marry. Pretty young for such a big step, sweetheart, but hell, such fab news! Listen to C.S. on all things fashionable and fierce:

On Heidi Klum and the V.S. show:
"Tranny Klum is fabulous. It's amazing. It's crazy here. There's so many people. It's hot, my hair's wilted, but I love it here. The Fontainebleau's gorgeous."

On fixing a nearby publicist’s ripped dress:
“That was crazy, right? But now her dress is couture sewn by me. It's fabulous!"

On Christian’s Fashion Week show next February:
"I'm a little bit inspired by Egypt, but you're going to have to wait and see. It'll be a good show."

On making a Gossip Girl appearance, just as Michael Kors did:
"I was asked [to go on], but I don't know yet. I really love that show and really want to do it sometime if they'll have me.”

On Prop 8:
"We're dying because we really wanted to get married. It's really, really sad. So we're going to work it out, me and Ellen. We're going to go on a crusade."

You, go, babe! Something tells me George Clooney would be happy to lend a hand, too, Mr. S.
