I remember as a child the Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson being embroiled in a toe sucking scandal, and thinking, “ew, gross, why would you want to suck on someone’s toe?” This is mostly because I myself have disgusting feet, and in Australia it is freakin’ hot so your feet are all sweaty, which is why it surprised me to see these pictures of Sting licking his wife’s feet during a Sydney summer.

Docked in Sydney harbour on a hired yacht costing £17,500 a day, Sting gently raised Trudie Styler’s left leg to his mouth - and sucked her toes.

The Police singer, whose personal life has been surrounded by rumours of tantric sex and swingers’ parties, also found time to massage her feet as she reclined on a sunlounger.

Now the Tantric sex and swinging I can understand, but licking feet in the hot Aussie summer is gross. That’s probably why he stopped licking and started massaging her feet instead.

Nicollette Sheridan is also involved in a little toe love - sucking on fiance Michael Bolton’s toes. Check out the pictures if you can stomach it.

Why do we indulge in these public displays of affection? Do feet taste good after being in salty beach water? Do other people not find feet gross? Since I’m on living in the heat right now (it’s 43 degrees celsius, or 109 Fahrenheit today) my feet are pretty manky and sweaty. I asked my husband if he fancied a little toe sucking, but he declined.

Nicollette Sheridan and Michael Bolton have been flashing some new bling - matching rings worn on their ring fingers! Have they had a secret wedding?

The Desperate Housewives actress and the singer - who got engaged in March 2006 - were seen leaving a New York restaurant both wearing a band on their respective wedding fingers.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: “If they have got married, they’ve kept it very quiet. Michael wasn’t trying to hide his ring, though.”

Michael and Nicollette originally dated in the 90s but split in 1993, before rekindling their romance in 2005.

Stuff

At the beginning of November reports began circulating that Nicollette was pregnant, so maybe their wedding has been moved forward to accomodate a growing baby bump. Michael Bolton denied the rumours, saying “I am not going to be a father again soon,” and adding that they still had yet to plan a wedding.

Of course, I doubt that any celebrity couple can resist the opportunity to sell the exclusive pictures of their nuptials to a tabloid magazine. Fellow Desperate Housewives actress Eva Longoria sold the pictures of her wedding to Tony Parker for $2 million. OK! Magazine bought the rights, which probably paid for the wedding and left the couple with some spare change. Which might have been why she got married in the first place, on the date 7/7/07, in order to make some money and raise her public profile. Perhaps it was cash and not true love that drove those vows, which might explain the text message love affair.

Congratulations to Nicollette and Michael, hope you enjoyed your secret special day - and turned a profit.

Picture note by Celebitchy: Nicollette Sheridan and Michael Bolton are shown on 12/7/07 outside of their hotel. There aren’t any clear shots of Bolton’s left hand and it looks like Sheridan is just wearing her engagement ring at that point. Thanks to Splash News for this photo.

There are a few things in life that are truly horrifying. War, famine, crime, and the thought of Michael Bolton reproducing. Seriously, do not argue with me, you know it’s an utterly horrifying thought. That hair? On a baby? Although it could be downright pretty on an eight-year-old. But that eight-year-old would still be the product of a father who thought it looked good on a 40-year-old man, and that’s just not cool. The other horrifying thought? That kid having Nicollette Sheridan’s over-arched evil eyebrows. With aforementioned long wavy Michael Bolton hair. I wish I were one of those fancy digital artists so I could do a rendering of what I imagine this creature might look like.

Nicollette Sheridan is pregnant with fiancé Michael Bolton’s baby, according to new reports. Friends claim the Desperate Housewives star, 43, is expecting her first child as she plans her wedding to the 54-year-old singer.

An insider says, “She’s absolutely glowing and her pregnancy is the buzz of the set.”

Reports suggest Sheridan gave castmates the big hint she was expecting when she started asking her co-stars, Teri Hatcher, Marcia Cross and Felicity Huffman all about motherhood and pregnancy.

The source explains, “She kept asking Felicity and Marcia about how the pregnancy would change her appearance and if it would make her hair thinner.”

Well that’s a lovely little thought to warm your heart during the weekend, huh? Seriously, despite the mocking, if it’s true, congrats to them both. If the writer’s strike goes on long enough, they can film a “reality” episode of “Desperate Housewives” where Edie gives birth –you don’t need writers for that dialogue.

Picture note by Jaybird: Here’s Nicollette at the “Beowulf” Los Angeles Premiere on Monday. There are over 20 photos of her on PRPhotos throughout the night, and she has her hands clasped in front of her stomach like that in every single picture. I think she’s trying to hide an early baby bump. Images thanks to PR Photos.

As if a Michael Bolton solo album wasn’t scary enough, here is the news that he’s planning an album of duets with fiancé Nicolette Sheridan.

According to Female First, Nicollette says, “I am such a shy singer but Michael has made me more confident and my voice has grown. We’re planning an album of duets.”

“You might think its madness but we like the way our voices blend.”

Meanwhile, Michael, known for his soft rock ballads, has nothing but praise for the effort his future wife has been making in her singing.

Michael said, “She’s got a beautiful voice but she has been terrified to sing since she was a kid. For some reason, at a young age, she was convinced that she couldn’t sing and if she thinks anybody’s listening she just shuts up immediately,” reports Female First.

In other Desperate Housewives news, Eva Longoria and Tony Parker have returned from their honeymoon. The couple, who are rapidly becoming the most hyped and least exciting couple in Hollywood, stayed in the Caribbean islands of Turks and Caicos.

Eva Longoria tells People:

“It was so romantic, it was just the two of us. We were completely alone together. We didn’t see people for days with the exception of room service bringing us food. It was great to be completely, 100-percent alone.”

Note by Celebitchy: And now it’s much better to be back in the spotlight, she added. Pay attention to me! My wedding may be over but I’ll start saying ridiculous shit again soon to make sure my name stays in the glossies.

Yesterday we published the story that Aniston was partying it up in Los Cabos, Mexico with Courteney Cox, Sheryl Crow and Courteney’s family for the holiday. Flynet online has some pictures of the group out to dinner, and it looks like Los Cabos is a favorite with celebrities this season. Apprentice winner Bill Rancic and his girlfriend E! star Giuliana DiPandi were there along with Nicollette Sheridan and Michael Bolton. Flynet reports that they all ate together at the same restaurant on New Year’s eve. Adam Sandler and his wife were also seen out in Los Cabos that day.

On March 9th we reported that Nicolette Sheridan bought a wedding dress. The official news now is that Sheridan and Bolton are engaged. We figured you wouldn’t really care so it took us a little while to report it.

Although they dated before in the early 90s, Sheridan has only been with Bolton since Christmas of last year. What are they thinking? You don’t get engaged after three months, especially if you’re famous. This will be a trainwreck.

Here are pictures of the two in Miami Beach on 3/11/06. Who wears a shearling jacket in Florida?

According to In Touch Magazine, Nicolette Sheridan recently spent $14,000 on a wedding dress after a shopping spree with Teri Hatcher:

Bolton and Sheridan have only been together since Christmas 2005, but this is the second time around for the couple. They were first an item in the early 90s. In mid January of this year Bolton sparked engagement rumors when he admitted he was “very close” to Sheridan:

It sounds like things are going quickly for the couple. They’ve certainly been out together a lot. Here are some pictures from Elton John’s party after the Oscars.
