John Krasinski, Emily Blunt, Carrie Underwood & Mike Fisher all get hitched

wenn2736626

What was it about July 10 that made everyone want to get married? Strange. Anyway, yesterday, Saturday, two somewhat prominent celebrity couples got hitched. First, we have American Office star John Krasinski and English crumpet Emily Blunt marrying in a private ceremony in Italy. Their reps confirmed to People that the wedding took place, but Us Weekly actually has some of the wedding porn details (Clooney was there!):

That’s amore! Emily Blunt and John Krasinski wed at the Villa D’este in Como, Italy, UsMagazine.com has confirmed.

“John and Emily were married on Saturday in a private ceremony,” Krasinski’s rep tells Us.

“It was an outdoor ceremony and absolutely beautiful,” says an insider. George Clooney and Italian girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis were in attendance; Blunt and Krasinski had been staying at Clooney’s nearby Lake Como estate since the July 4th weekend.

“It was an official ceremony. They are husband and wife,” adds the source.

After about a year of dating, The Office star Krasinski, 30, proposed to British actress Blunt, 27, with a 3-carat Edwardian diamond and platinum ring from Neil Lane, worth $100,000.

Krasinski told Access Hollywood that the proposal was “very casual” but very emotional, too. “She did cry after I cried, and we cried and then everyone around us was crying,” he said.

“She’s a wonderful girl,” Krasinski gushed at last year’s Emmys of his fiancee.

“So many people say, ‘You know when you know,’ and it’s true,” Krasinski added of his love. “It’s all true.”

Reps could not be reached for comment.

[From Us Weekly]

Oooh, I wonder if they actually got married at George Clooney’s Lake Como villa? That must have been beautiful. Do you think Elisabetta Canalis was like “George when are we going to get married?” If she did, she’ll be out the door soon enough.

Next, we have country singer Carrie Underwood and her hockey player Mike Fisher. They were married in Atlanta, Georgia, apparently, and it was a more traditional affair then Clooney’s Den of Sin and European Sex.

Carrie Underwood is a married woman! The American Idol winner, 27, wed her hockey player beau Mike Fisher Saturday night near Atlanta, Ga., UsMagazine.com has confirmed.

The two walked down the aisle in front of more than 200 guests at the Ritz Carlton Reynolds Plantation in Greensboro, Ga., in a ceremony estimated to cost more than $500,000, according to RadarOnline.com. Underwood and Fisher, who plays for the Ottawa Senators, said their vows under a lakeside tent.

After a year of dating, Fisher, 30, popped the question last December with a 12-carat ring worth about $800,000. “We’re both obviously excited and very happy,” Fisher said at the time. Underwood hired a wedding planner, but also ironed out many of the details herself.

“I bought a lot of magazines and am cutting out pictures,” she told Us in January. “I have a folder and I cut out pictures and glue them in. It’s in kind of a binder thing.”

Fisher was tasked with coordinating the honeymoon. “[Planning] that was Mike’s project,” she said at the CMA Fest last month.

“It’s a surprise. I have no clue where we are going, which is nice. I know it will be warm, that’s about it.”

The Grammy winner said she wasn’t worrying too much about slimming down before her wedding.

“I’m not a big stresser — Mike would love me if I weighed 800 pounds,” she told reporters after taking the entertainer of the year award for the second straight year at the Academy of Country Music Awards in April.

Underwood first met Fisher backstage after an October 2008 concert in Toronto. “I made sure he came in with some other people,” she told Cosmopolitan. “I was like, ‘What if he’s weird?’”

They made their first public appearance as a couple in January 2010 at an event in Quebec. After nabbing Video of the Year at the CMT Awards last month, Underwood gushed to Us, “No matter what happens, I go home a winner. I have the biggest prize, the guy sitting next to me. Win or lose, he is proud of me. Of course, it’s nice to share the good times too!”

[From Us Weekly]

Congratulations to both couples, I’m sure they will be very happy. Does anyone want to place any bets on pregnancies, divorces, etc? My bet is that Carrie will get knocked up before Emily Blunt, but that Emily and John’s marriage will last longer. But you never can tell with those British girls, really. Emily seems very down-to-earth, and there have already been rumors that she’s pregnant. Honeymoon babies for both?

Jimmy Kimmel voted out of Handsome Club by Affleck, McConaughey


Last night after the Oscars and local news Jimmy Kimmel aired a funny skit called The Handsome Men’s Club featuring cameos by such attractive souls as Sting, Patrick Dempsey, a shirtless Gilles Marini (from Sex and The City), Rob Lowe, John Kraskinski, Matthew McConaughey, Ethan Hawke, Josh Hartnett, Taye Diggs, Tony Romo, Keith Urban, Lenny Kravitz, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. The bit went on way too long and was just an excuse to add cameos by countless celebrities. Every time you turned around it seemed a new celebrity was shown sitting around the ever-expanding table. The premise was that Kimmel was the head of the self-obsessed Handsome Men’s Club and was being voted out by the members for not being handsome enough. Matthew McConaughey challenged Kimmel’s presidency and then Rob Lowe pointed out that Kimmel was wearing Spanx. Kimmel countered that he looked just like Taye Diggs, to which Taye and the members objected.

The whole thing was ridiculous and was capped off in true Kimmel style with his buddies Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. Affleck voted against Kimmel, shamefaced, and then Damon entered at the end and laughed maniacally, telling us we were out of time (a long running Kimmel gag). Next we saw Kimmel in bed spooning with his lover Affleck, realizing the whole thing was a bad dream. Affleck reassured Kimmel that he was attractive and was his “big daddy handsome,” at which point Ben’s wife, Jennifer Garner, popped out of bed and said “Ben, that’s enough, it’s getting weird.”

I didn’t think Kimmel could top his “f’ing Ben Affleck” response to then-girlfriend Sarah Silverman’s viral video, “I’m f’ing Matt Damon.” He did, though, sort of. It was more by sheer star power rather than hilarity, although I was pretty amused, particularly by Damon. He always manages to crack me up.

Wolfman premiere pics: Emily Blunt, John Krasinski & Benicio del Toro

wolfman_premiere_01_wenn2736740

Last night, Wolfman premiered in Los Angeles and all of the major cast members showed up for the red carpet. These aren’t our usual suspects (get it?) for gossip, but I liked the photos from the premiere, so let’s talk about it! Emily Blunt brought her fiancée John Krasinski, who looked just like my mom imagines what her son-in-law will look like. Anthony Hopkins (above) might be the winner of Hollywood’s Grand Beard Experiment, and he’s killing me with that cravat. Oh, and I would still nail Benicio del Toro to the wall. Yum.

Here’s Emily Blunt’s simple, lovely dress. I don’t really have a feel for Emily’s style yet. From what I’ve seen, she can be very hit-or-miss on the red carpet, and she usually gets at least one thing wrong (between hair, makeup and dress). But I really like this overall look:

fp_4509741_rev_wolfman_020910

John Krasinski is such a cutie. Is it just me or are his ears getting bigger? The ears give him this air of goofiness that I just love. He’s like a young Jimmy Stewart.

fp_4509746_rev_wolfman_020910

Benicio del Toro. I know, I know, I questioned whether he still had the hotness. When he smiles, you can still see it. Jesus, this man does it for me. I get that many of you think I have weird taste in men and everything, but seriously, how could you not want to do dirty things with this man?

fp_4509747_rev_wolfman_020910

Lastly, here’s Hugo Weaving, better known as that dude from The Matrix. At first I thought it was Sting. The beard works for him and I’ve never really noticed that he’s a pretty good-looking dude. Well done, Hugo.

John Krasinski confirms engagement: “You know when you know.”

How cute is John Krasinski? I wish he would wear his hair slicked-back like this more often. It makes him appear a little goofy, but still really, really hot. You know what makes him ever better? The fact that he talked openly about his engagement to Emily Blunt! He confirmed it to Ryan Seacrest on the red carpet, and said what so many girls wish they heard about them, “You know when you know.” Sigh. I love him. Unfortunately, Emily didn’t walk the red carpet with John – she was in Toronto, promoting The Young Victoria:

The Office’s John Krasinski opened up about his engagement to Emily Blunt on the red carpet at Sunday’s Emmy Awards.

“She’s a wonderful girl. Someone had to do it…it was a tough gig, but somebody had to do it,” he joked. “So many people are angry at me.”

A rep for the couple confirmed their engagement in late August.

Krasinski, 29, says he had a feeling it was time to propose this summer after about 10 months of dating.

“So many people say, ‘You know when you know,’ and it’s true,” Krasinski said. “It’s all true.”

Krasinski hit the carpet solo. Where was Blunt, 26?

“She’s up in Toronto,” he said. “Her film [romantic drama The Young Victoria] is closing the film festival.”

[From Us Weekly]

It doesn’t sound like they’re fighting over wedding plans, as the Enquirer would have us believe. Yeah, I didn’t really buy that – they both seem like really sweet, nice, easy-going people. Alright, Emily seems like she might be a ballbuster, but I doubt it’s anything too bad. I also think there’s still a possibility that Emily is pregnant. No judgment! I think it’s sweet that, theoretically, John Krasinski might be the kind of guy who would immediately propose to a girl he knocked up. But what do I know? It could be that they’re both very traditional, and want to wait before the vows are exchanged before getting pregnant. How… old-school.

John Krasinski & Emily Blunt are fighting over babies & wedding plans


Two weeks ago, John Krasinski and British actress Emily Blunt announced their engagement through a short and sweet confirmation by John’s rep to People Magazine. Since then, they’ve been keeping quiet. No gushing tell-all interviews to Us Weekly, no well-timed photo ops of the two of them looking lovey-dovey shopping for furniture. The only major thing to happen was a brief, fleeting glimpse of Emily’s engagement ring as she was accosted by paparazzi and fans outside of LAX one week ago. From the picture People had, it looks like John got her a nice-sized diamond, maybe three carats or so, probably either round or rose-cut.

Unfortunately for all of us who like to pretend John is our imaginary boyfriend, it seems John and Emily have just been fighting up a storm since getting engaged. This is according to the Enquirer - the tabloid claims John and Emily’s fights are of the “oh, that’s so cute, we’re fighting about flowers!” variety. At least, that’s how it seems to me:

John Krasinski and Emily Blunt are already fighting – over the wedding date!

Emily… wants a year to plan a splashy event, but John wants to get married no later than February, pals say.

“John doesn’t want to wait,” an insider on the set of The Office told The Enquirer. “But Emily wants time to plan the wedding of her dreams. Right now, they’re clashing.”

One of the main reasons John is pushing to marry quickly is because he’s anxious to be a dad, revealed a friend. “He wants to start a family right away… he adores children. And he wants Emily to get pregnant as soon as possible.”

Added the pal: “They’re excited about getting engaged, but they’re trying to work out some kind of compromise on the timing of the wedding.”

[From the National Enquirer, print edition, September 21 2009]

Meh. I would be willing to bet that John Krasinski is the kind of guy who would be happy no matter how, when or where Emily wanted to get married. But I do think he probably does want to be a dad, and soon. My first thought when I heard of their engagement was “I wonder if she’s knocked up?” It wouldn’t be a big deal if she was – there’s nothing wrong with a shotgun marriage, after all. But if she is knocked up, or if John is making it his top priority, my guess is the wedding will be sooner rather than later.

People: Emily Blunt & John Krasinski are engaged

90402x4_blunt_b_gr_09

ARGH! I’m going to go light a candle, pour myself a drink and have a good weep. Because my imaginary boyfriend John Krasinski is now totally off the market. People Magazine has confirmed with John Krasinski’s rep that John and British actress Emily Blunt are officially engaged. Sob. Wail. Emily and John have been dating since November of 2008 (although I thought it had been longer). John has previously dated Rashida Jones (daughter of Quincy) and Emily has previously dated Canadian crooner Michael Buble. Need I say it? It’s the real deal if People Magazine is confirming it:

John Krasinski and Emily Blunt will soon be husband and wife.

The Office star, 29, and actress, 26, who have been dating since November 2008, are engaged, his rep confirms to PEOPLE.

“We can confirm that John and Emily are engaged,” says the rep.

[From People]

Who wants to join me for a drink? I mean… a toast. Right. Why am I so sad? Is it because John has that quality that makes it seem like any girl has a chance? I will give him some credit – he seems to go for the nice girls. Emily seems like a very nice girl – yes, a bit of a potty-mouth (who isn’t?) but generally she seems funny, sweet, intelligent and talented.

Back in May, there were a couple of rumors that John was cheating on Emily with his It’s Complicated costar Lake Bell, but not many people believed it. He just doesn’t seem to have a douchey vein in his body. Sigh. Nice to see they still make boys like that. John will be seen next in the new season of The Office, starting in late September, and then he’s got the Christmas release of It’s Complicated, an ensemble romantic comedy (with Meryl Streep!). Emily will next be seen in The Young Victoria (as the young Queen of England) in November and some weird looking film called Wild Target (with Bill Nighy!). Congratulations to the happy couple.

Here are Emily and John in April. Images thanks to BauerGriffinOnline.

John Krasinski is still our imaginary boyfriend (Spoilers for ‘The Office’)

fp_3446888_the_office_fp7_0
Everything about this post is a SPOILER, so if you don’t want to read about the new season of The Office, move along.


These are some gorgeous pictures of Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski shooting scenes for the new season of The Office. It looks like Jim and Pam are getting married! And it definitely looks like Pam is sporting a maternity wedding gown. So there’s the first part of the season – Pam is definitely knocked up, and she and Jim and definitely trying to get married. Maybe they’re wedding will be marred by something douchey Michael Scott does. But I doubt it. Instead of feeling disappointed at this spoiler, I just feel excited. I can’t wait to see the wedding episode!

They made Jenna look very pretty, I think. The dress seems like a nice empire-waist gown that Pam would have gotten off-the-rack. But I can barely take my eyes off of John Krasinski. He is killing me in that suit. Does he know that he’s every girl’s imaginary “nice guy” boyfriend? Does he know that moms around the country read about him in People Magazine and tell their daughters, “This is who you should be dating!”? Unlike many of those “nice guy” imaginary boyfriends, I’ve always found John to be incredibly sexy and handsome. He’s not one of those guys who “seems nice once you get to know him”. John is tall, handsome, and his sweetness seems written on his face. He also seems like the guy you met in college. The nice guy with the bad taste in women. The guy you always wanted to date, but the two of you were “friends”. And you foolishly didn’t want to ruin your friendship with hot sex. Sigh. I love him. I would nail it. And I would make him cuddle afterwards, too. I wouldn’t just roll over and fall asleep, like I usually do. Sigh. I little Krasinki makes the day better!

‘Away We Go’ screening with Maya Rudolph, John Krasinski & Kate Winslet

away we go 2 010609
Saturday Night Live cast member Maya Rudolph and The Office’s Jon Krasinski star in Away We Go, a film about an expectant early 30s couple traveling around the US to figure out where they want to live. It’s directed by Sam Mendes with the screenplay by award-winning writer Dave Eggers, the author of A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius. It looks like such a gem of a film, with great chemistry between the two leads and cameos from Jeff Daniels, Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Allison Janney.

Rudolph, 36, is pregnant in the film and she’s also pregnant in real life. She is having her second child with her partner, director Paul Thomas Anderson. Rudolph and Anderson are also parents to a three and a half year old daughter, Pearl Minnie.

Oscar winning actress Kate Winslet showed up at yesterday’s screening in New York to support her husband, director Sam Mendes. I love Winslet but that dress with the odd reverse dickie on the front just isn’t doing it for her. The severe pulled back hair doesn’t flatter her either. Maybe she wanted to look elegant but understated so as not to overshadow the event.

Here’s the trailer for Away We Go, which is out in limited release this Friday, June 5:

Also shown in the premiere photos are Jeffrey Wright and Carmen Ejogo, David Schwimmer, and Allison Lanney hugging Sam Mendes. I wonder why Maggie Gyllenhaal wasn’t there.

Is John Krasinski cheating on Emily Blunt with Lake Bell?

90402x4_blunt_b_gr_09
John Krasinski is the guy every mother wants her daughter to bring home. He’s got his pick of all of the “nice” girls in Hollywood and beyond, but I’m struggling to see his type. First, he had that on-and-off relationship with Rashida Jones, daughter of Quincy and former star of The Office. Then as soon as English cutie Emily Blunt dumped Michael Buble, Blunt and Krasinski were a couple and have been ever since. Now reports are indicating that John might be dumping Emily for his costar, Lake Bell.

John and Lake met on a Nancy Meyers film that is yet untitled. Meyers wrote and directed that film with Diane Keaton and Jack Nicholson, Something’s Got To Give, so she usually knows how to pick a cast. But John Krasinski and Lake Bell? Lake Bell is like the budget version of Amanda Peet. John could do better – and has with Emily Blunt.

Looks like The Office’s John Krasinski has a workplace crush! Although he’s been dating The Devil Wears Prada’s Emily Blunt, 26, since November, John, 29, has gotten very close to Lake Bell, 30, his costar in the upcoming untitled Nancy Myers film, an insider tells Star.

“John and Lake have been flirting like crazy on set. In between takes, they sit next to each other, giggling and whispering like teenagers – he’ll play with her rings or she’ll rest his head on his shoulder.”

While other cast members are bussing about the obvious chemistry between the two even when cameras aren’t rolling, “I don’t think they care,” says the insider.

“But it’s almost uncomfortable to watch.” Let’s hope Emily doesn’t pay a surprise visit to the set!

[From Star Magazine, print edition, May 25 2009]

Let’s hope Emily does pay a surprise visit to the set and dumps Krasinski. What am I saying? I adore John Krasinski, and I so don’t want to believe this story. Could it be that the guy every mother loves is just the same as all of the other up-and-coming Hollywood womanizers? This is what happens when an actor is so identifiable with one particular character – Jim Halpert would never do this. I can’t believe it.

Emily Blunt and John Krasinski officially dating


Once celebrities have been photographed together in L.A., there’s no turning back. They’re dating. Officially. So it comes as a surprise that John Krasinski (Jim from “The Office”) and Emily Blunt (the English cutie from The Devil Wears Prada), two seemingly-down-to-earth, non-famewhore types would get caught out so soon into their relationship. I first heard the rumor of their romance just a few weeks ago… but here they are, publicly declaring their affection with a chaste closeness-of-hands.

We heard rumblings of a romance between John Krasinski and Emily Blunt a few weeks ago, and apparently the rumors are true. They stepped out Monday night for a movie date at the Arclight in LA, and it looks like John is putting a smile on Emily’s face already. Most of you picked Jim and Pam for Best TV romance of 2008, but we’ll have to wait and see if John’s new real-life relationship will be just as sweet.

[From PopSugar]

John Krasinski is one of those guys that both mothers and daughters adore. My mother has taken to calling Krasinski “my future son-in-law” – of course, she said that about Matt Damon, and look how that turned out. Both Krasinski and Blunt have “dated famous” before – Krasinski had an on-and-off relationship with Rashida Jones (daughter of Quincy and former star of “The Office”) and Blunt dated singer (and another favorite of moms) Michael Buble for more than a year. I like the way these two look together, and I hope the relationship is for real. My mother’s going to be heartbroken, though.
