and Nick Cannon must have felt like they go and show up their pal Ellen DeGeneres, who had a carnival-themed birthday party spectacular for her 50th birthday. The newlyweds went ahead and rented out all of Six Flags Magic Mountain Theme Park last night, to celebrate their brand new marriage.

According to UsMagazine.com, the park was decorated with pink and purple balloons and a banner which read: 'Mariah and Nick - A Love Story.'

Oy -- the cheese!


Mariah Carey went on The Ellen Degeneres Show today and talked all about her brand new marriage to Nick Cannon, giving tons of details on their wedding, their rings (hers is a ROCK), their new tattoos (she has "Mrs. Cannon" on the small of her back, while he has "Mariah" across his upper back), and how they pulled off their big secret. Watch it -- it's good stuff.

The big, secret wedding is so in these days.

Sources close to Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz say that the couple have plans to wed to this coming Saturday, May 17.

"Proper invites have not been sent out but instead guests have been given a save the date notice," an insider told UsMagazine.com.

If you were planning on crashing, I can't help you with the locale, as that information is said to be "top secret." I can tell you that there will be a rehearsal dinner for "family and close friends only" on Friday. Then, on Saturday, "all guests will be transported in shuttles to the wedding location."

Why the hurry? It is because Ash is preggers, or can they not wait another minute to be man and wife? Your thoughts?


Holy cow! Contrary to popular belief, Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey's reported union does NOT seem to be an Ashton Kutcher scam.

E! checked in with Nick's family, who confirmed that the couple have, indeed, gotten married.

"Yes, we know. He called us and told us all about it," said Nick's mom, Linda Cannon. "We are happy for him. If that is what he wants, then we are happy for him." She then added, "I'm not going to give you any details, but we are happy for him."

The New York Post, who reported that Mimi and Nick said their vows at her new home in the Bahamas, also said that the nuptials were so spur of the moment that Mariah didn't have time to have any sort of papers drawn up, if you catch my drift.

"There was no prenup - there wasn't time," said a source.

Another pal close to the couple chimed in, "Everyone is happy to see her happy. And it could work out - some people know each other for five years and get divorced. Maybe this is true, instant love."

Yeah, that's what you want people saying at your wedding -- "It could work out."


UPDATE: The New York Post says that the wedding between Mariah and Nick took place at a home Mims recently purchased in Eleuthera, the Bahamas.

Forget the engagement -- sources say that Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have lost their minds and went got married yesterday!

An insider reportedly spilled the beans to Latina magazine, saying that the newly-dating couple were "very impulsive," and flew to some island to say their vows. Only a few were present for the nups, including Mariah's BFF, Da Brat.

What the hell? These two met, like, a minute ago, and Nick gave Mariah a hand-me-down ring. Ridiculous.

Stay tuned for more...

star Jason Biggs tied the knot on April 23, says Star magazine.

Jason went the no nonsense route, marrying his love, actress Jenny Mollen, at City Hall in Los Angeles.

"Jason and Jenny agreed that they did not want to deal with the whole family thing because it would have been too stressful on both of them," says an insider. "They thought it would be a lot more relaxing to do it just the two of them with no pressure. It was a very private wedding and that is exactly how they wanted it."

Later that night, the new marrieds, who had gotten engaged in January, had a celebratory dinner with a small group of pals in Beverly Hills. Two days later, they said "Aloha" to a Hawaiian honeymoon .

"They are so in love that all that mattered to them was just getting married, whether there were frills or not," says the source. "Maybe one day later they will have the whole white dress and flowers major celebration, but not now. They just want this to be an intimate event between the two of them."

Congrats to the happy couple!

and Jay-Z might not want to come right out and say that they are Mr. & Mrs., but their paperwork is certainly confirming it. The recording stars filed a signed marriage license in Scarsdale, NY on Friday, says People.com.

The date of the nups? April 4th -- that Friday night in question, where the big she-bang took place at Jay-Z's place in the city. They had filed for the license three days before the flower-filled wedding.

So, they're married. Kay?

Well on her way to becoming the next Elizabeth Taylor, Ivana Trump tied the knot, for the fourth time, on Saturday.

Ivana married Rossano Rubicondi in front of about 500 friends and family members, at ex-hubby Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate, in Palm Beach, Florida. "I am so happy my friends from around the world came to be with me on my wedding day," the blushing bride told People.com, before the ceremony.

Ivana and Rossano's ceremony was a complete family affair, as The Donald's sister, Judge Maryanne Trump Barry, performed the service, while Ivana's sons gave her away, and daughter, Ivanka, served as maid of-honor. Even Donald showed up and made nice.

Congrats to Ivana and Rossano (who's 24 years younger than his bride), as they set off on their new life together. Here's hoping four is the magic number.

Hey! Whattayaknow -- a new cover of Us Weekly that doesn't feature one of The Hills' girls! Right on!

This week it's all about the wedding of those crazy in love kids, Beyonce and Jay-Z. The florist behind the flowery extravaganza, Amy Vongpitaka, of NYC's Amy's Orchids, tells the mag that the 75 boxes of white and cream-colored orchids "made the apartment like a heaven, like a palace."

Amy says she only had "one-week's notice" to prep for the big event, which took place on April 4, but that the decor came out just right. "You know in a palace where things hang down from a chandelier, that's what they tried to do with the flowers," she said. "You walked in, and it was all flowers — everything white and creamy. It made Beyoncé look special."

For more on the star-studded, yet intimate, nups, pick up the new issue -- and be thrilled that you don't have to look at another giant photo of Heidi Montag while waiting to check out at Shop Rite.

Did someone forget to tell Mary J. Blige that Beyonce and Jay-Z were trying to keep their marriage under wraps?

At her concert on Saturday night, which she is co-headlining with Jay, the soulful crooner sent a special shout-out to the new Mr. & Mrs..

"Congratulations to my man, Jay-Z, and my girl, B," Mary said -- to the soldout crowd -- before dedicating her song "You're All I Need" to the couple.

Interestingly, Jay kept mum when he hit the stage.

Mary's such a blabber mouth. We love it!

Although there has been no official confirmation from music's royal couple, all evidence points to the big "I do" for Jay-Z and Beyonce Knowles.

"Yes, it's a wedding," a source told E! News Jay's Tribeca loft in New York City on Friday.

Preparation started early in the day at the apartment building, when a white tent was erected on the rooftop, followed by deliveries of candelabras and, finally, 60,000 white orchids. Yep, 60,000. 

Guests of the couple included the parents and sister of the bride, Jay's mom, Destiny's Child's Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland, and Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin, who were mostly all dressed in white. The party people danced the night away, as music was blaring from the tent until at least 4am.

Congrats!

According to People.com, flower arrangements, candelabras and a tent have been brought into Jay-Z's Tribeca apartment building in NYC. The white tent has been put up on top of the building, where Jay owns a penthouse apartment.

It's [happening] tonight," says a source. "A lot of their friends are booking hotel rooms." Those "friends" are said to include Beyonce's "sisters from another mister," Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland from Destiny's Child.

Looks like music's power couple are really making it official!

Congrats!

Lies, lies, lies!

Apparently, the whole Brad-Pitt-married-Angelina-Jolie-this-weekend was all a big farce. Star magazine, which first "broke" the story, has taken the news down off their website. In it's place they've posted this:

"Sources in a position to have information regarding a secret wedding ceremony between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie had confirmed to Star that the couple married in the French Quarter Wedding Chapel on Saturday, March 29. "There were two weddings, one planned and one unplanned," one source told Star. "Brad and Angelina's was the planned ceremony. The weather wasn't good, so we were indoors."

After further investigation, the sources are not standing by their story. Brad and Angelina's reps have not commented."

Womp Womp.

Listen kids, it's a big deal if I'm chiming in from my living room on a Saturday night!

Star magazine is saying that Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie have finally tied the knot today in New Orleans!

There were no further details, but this is GIGANTIC -- I'll be sure to keep you posted!

I can't believe they did it -- they got married!

Let the commenting begin...

UPDATE: Despite what Star says, People.com is reporting that a source close to the couple says that a wedding did not happen -- and that Brangelina aren't even in New Orleans! Keep checking back for more...

Yes, it's true, there is a lid for every pot, as Gary Coleman has finally found "the one."

The former child star, 40, admits that he and Shannon Price, 22, who he met on a movie set, were married in August -- and that this is his first "romantic" relationship.

"I never got the opportunity to be romantic or feel romantic with anyone," he says. "I wasn't saving myself, she just happened to be the one."

Shannon wasn't even put off by their height difference (she's a foot taller than him). "He was 10 feet tall to me, because he was sweet and I really liked his personality."

The saying "Diff'rent Strokes for different folks" has never been truer.

Britney & Adnan's White Wedding.JPG
You knew that this had to be a headline somewhere.

Star rag is saying that when Britney Spears and pap boyfriend Adnan Ghalib ran away to Mexico on a secret trip last month, they actually got married.

Star editor Candace Trunzo told the NY Daily News' Gatecrasher: "Our source on this was not in Rosarito Beach at the ceremony, but is very familiar with the fact that [wedding] documents exist."

Even if it did take place, the wedding would really mean nothing, considering Adnan is still married to his wife, AzLynn Berry, who just recently filed official separation papers

The mag also says that Britney gave Adnan $250,000 to get his current wife out of the picture a little more quickly, and told her lawyers that the cash was for her new Mercedes. 

What do you think? Did Britney and Adnan have a "spiritual" ceremony like Tracey Edmonds and Eddie Murphy? Look how well that turned out.

Unless you're Chris Daughtry, I've stopped caring about any former American Idol contestant once the season is over, but that doesn't mean that you have. So, for all of you fans that had the "McPheever," this is for you.

Idol's season five runner up, beauty Katherine McPhee, married her much-older man (she's 23, he's 42), producer Nick Cokas on Saturday in Beverly Hills. The ceremony took place at the Beverly Hills Presbyterian Church. Fellow American Idol alum Kellie Pickler and Mandisa were among the 305 guests.

What, no Simon, Randy, Paula or Ryan? Yeah, I'm pretty sure they feel the same way I do about Katherine -- out of sight, out of mind -- forever.

I know you thought Eddie Murphy and Tracey Edmonds got married last weekend, in a posh ceremony on a island off Bora Bora, but you were mistaken. Their nups may have been fancy and fabulous -- but they weren't legal.

In the Unites States, an international wedding is only recognized if the ceremony adheres to local laws in the country it takes place. Bora Bora is under French law, which stipulates a wedding is valid only if the couple has been in the territory for 30 days (they hadn't) or if they are married in a town hall by a mayor (they weren't).

Tracey's rep said that the couple's island party "was a ceremony to bind Eddie and Tracey spiritually" and that they would make it legal when they got back home.

I think this is great news for Tracey -- she still has a chance to change her mind and run for the hills.

Here comes the bride!

Ok! magazine has snagged the exclusive pictures from Grey's Anatomy beauty Katherine Heigl's wedding to Josh Kelley, and we've got the sneak peek for you. For their "winter wonderland" wedding, that took place in Park City, Utah, Kat donned an $8,000 L'ezu Atelier white gown, as she walked down the aisle to wed her music man. Don't they look ecstatic?

For more exclusive photos, all of you Kat-lovers should pick up the new issue of Ok! There's lots more where this came from.

Eddie Murphy and Tracey Edmonds decided to start the new year off with wedding.

The actor and his lady got hitched in a swank ceremony on a private island off Bora Bora on Tuesday. According to People.com, it was a sunset ceremony on the beach that took place in a gazebo made of 6,000 shells, by wedding designer-to-the-stars, Colin Cowie. A private dinner and dance party followed. Oh, and Eddie's best man was singer Johnny Gill -- in case you care.

Mazel Tov.

I'm sure the wedding was beautiful, but I feel bad for Tracey. Eddie "Baby Spice ain't my baby" Murphy is a proven dog, who will probably have a couple more kids with her, then lose interest and find someone else to get pregnant.

Maybe the love of another good woman has changed him, but it's doubtful.

A joyous holiday it was for some notable names in Hollywood.

SNL funnyman Jimmy Fallon said "I do" to his producer girlfriend, Nancy Juvonen, who he met on the set of her good friend Drew Barrymore's flick Fever Pitch, in 2005. The couple tied the knot Saturday, on Necker Island in the Caribbean.

In other new family news, boxing champ Oscar de la Hoya and his wife, Millie Corretjer, welcomed their second child together, Nina Lauren Nenitte de la Hoya. Say that three times fast! Nina was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, in the middle-weight category, coming in at a cool 7 lbs., 13 oz.

"We are so excited and blessed with the new addition to our family!" Oscar said in a statement.

This is the fighter's fourth child.

Congrats!

It seems like we've been hearing about this wedding for ages -- well, it finally happened. In a picture-perfect setting, Grey Anatomy's Katherine Heigl married her pop-singing man, Josh Kelley.

The couple said their vows (which they wrote themselves) in Park City, Utah, where the ceremony was held under a tent, as snow fell outside. According to People.com, Kat's BFF and bridesman, T.R. Knight, said the nups were "beautiful and incredible."

Sure sounds it. Other details on the big day; a path from the ceremony to the reception was lined with candles and flowers, the bridesmaids wore red, and Katherine walked down the aisle to an acoustic song written by Josh.

Congrats to the happy couple!

Beyonce has a tattoo on her finger to the left

Sources are buzzing that fairly stable music supercouple Beyonce and Jay-Z secretly tied the knot while in Paris earlier this month. The duo were in the City of Lights to celebrate Jay's birthday, or so they say, but Mediatakeout.com insists that there was more to it, and J & B decided on Paris because “they didn’t want all the attention that usually follows them around.”

A source says that instead of exchanging rings, Beyonce and Jay chose to get tattoos on their ring fingers (see photos here), to show their mutual commitment. “They thought the tattoos would be a lovely personal touch,” the insider said.

Beyonce's peeps say they "don't know anything about it."

Could it be? They've been dating since 2002, so I wouldn't be surprised, but I always took them for wanting a wedding of lavish proportions. Maybe they'll follow up the private Paris ceremony with a big bash in the states.

Don't send Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo a glass vase just yet.

Despite FoxNews.com's report that Jessica Simpson's ex and his girlfriend were planning a secret wedding in the Bahamas this weekend, Nick's rep told Us Weekly that the rumor is completely false. Nick's peeps say the singer is in Cincinnati working on his new NBC show Clash of the Choirs, as well as another show he is producing for MTV, while Vanessa is in Los Angeles.

I so don't care about these two anymore. I still like Nick -- I have a tiny crush on him, but Vanessa just annoys me. I'm only happy if there's a sex tape to talk about, when it comes to them.

Chachi was my first television crush. The one that started it all. Way before Jack Wagner, before Kirk Cameron, before Ralph Macchio, there was Scott Baio. Oh, how I wanted to be Joanie Cunningham.

Well, my childhood crush has finally settled down and married girlfriend Renee Sloan. The couple tied the knot in a rooftop ceremony at a luxury high-rise Saturday in Los Angeles, People.com reports. The wedding was filmed for the second season of Scott's VH1 reality show, Scott Baio is 45 ... and Single.

Guests at the nups included, Renee's 18-year-old daughter, and the couple's newborn daughter.

Congrats to Scott and his new family -- let's hope he finds marriage as fascinating as I found him.

brandon Routh gets married.jpg
It's a bird, it's a plane, it's ... Supergroom!

Superman Returns star Brandon Routh married his longtime girlfriend, Courtney Ford, over the holiday weekend. The couple had a posh wedding in Santa Barbara.

Brandon and Courtney met four years ago, way before Brandon ever thought he would be getting in to the Man of Steel's tights. "I used to work at Lucky Strike," Brandon told People in January, referring to the hip bowling alley in Hollywood. "I was a bartender. And her brother was having his [wedding] rehearsal dinner party there."

Apparently, the lovebirds were, ahem, bowled over at first sight. "He met my whole family the day he met me." Brandon says his Lois Lane is his personal kryptonite. "She brings me to my knees."

Awww. Congrats!

julianna margulies Gets Married
I'm still not done crying over when Julianna Marguiles's Carol and George Clooney's Doug met up again in Seattle, or wherever they were, on that episode of ER when George made his surprise appearance at the end while that Don Henley song was playing.

I'm happy to report that Julianna is in the midst of her real-life love of a lifetime, as the pregnant star (she's about seven months along) married lawyer Keith Lieberthal in Massachusetts last weekend.

"It was all traditional. It was very touching. She was radiant. It was beautiful," her father, Paul Margulies, who walked her down the aisle, told People. "We're thrilled for her, and the young man she married is a wonderful person. We're proud to have him as a part of our family."

I love a happy ending. Congrats!

Grey's Anatomy's Ellen Pompeo tied the knot with fiance Chris Ivery on Friday in New York.

There weren't tons of floral arrangements or paparazzi, as the two said their vows in a quiet ceremony at City Hall in lower Manhattan. The wedding did have one special guest -- New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg served as a witness and wished the couple "a lifetime of happiness."

Ellen's dad told People, "I'm very happy for her. She just didn't want a big thing."

Ellen and Chris met in L.A., but grew up only 10 miles apart in Boston. When they got engaged last November, the actress told Us Weekly, "I had to go 3,000 miles away to meet a guy who practically grew up next door, but I guess everything comes full circle."

I'm in love with a good love story.

Lance Bass Says marriage story was Just a Joke
What a let down!

Lance Bass is now saying that the story he told E!, about his quickie marriage to a girlfriend in Las Vegas, was all just a made up story. The singer's rep said it was all a misunderstanding and Lance was just talking hypothetically, and according to the Clark County Clerk's Office, there was no record of the union.

"He was in Vegas one time, you're humorously jok
