Melissa Etheridge and Linda Wallem

Songstress Melissa is an iconic LBGT power broker and Linda is an actress/producer, most memorable being the showrunner of That 70s Show. It was then, almost 20 years ago, that she suggested that Melissa have a part on the show as the record store owner, which although didn’t quite work out, the two became friends, eventually best friends. When Etheridge went through her divorce, she asked Wallem to move in with her, as friends. Finally, the two took the plunge and had the best birthday present ever when they married in 2014, two days after both turned 53.
