I will admit to having a passing interest in Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo. I think they’re a sweet couple. I would watch their wedding and probably get a little teary over it since I’m a stupid sucker for weddings despite the fact that I’m more than aware of the reality of marriage. We’ve heard for some time that Nick and Vanessa were hoping to get a reality show so they’d be able to afford all those vacations they’re constantly going on. Now comes news that their wedding will be shown on TLC. This could be the start of a show for them, and they can piss away their relationship the same way Nick did with Jessica, not that those two were ever going to last anyway.

TLC will air “Nick & Vanessa’s Dream Wedding” (working title), a special to air just weeks after the couple’s wedding date, which they are keeping top secret.

Lachey, 37, and Vanessa Minnillo, 30, have been dating since 2006 and got engaged last fall. He and ex-wife Jessica Simpson documented their own wedding and early married life on MTV’s Newlyweds.

“We’re lucky to have such passionate and loving fans, and we thought partnering with TLC on this special would be the best way to share the exciting journey we’re on with all the people that support us and our relationship,” Lachey and Minnillo said in a statement.

The special will feature footage from their joint wedding shower, Minnillo’s wedding dress search and the ceremony itself.

I could have sworn Minnillo was like 35, not 30. This wedding special is probably a kind of pilot to see if Nick and Vanessa rate their own full show. It’s TLC, they air sh*t like “Strange Sex” and “My Strange Addiction,” they’re not choosy. “Kate Plus 8″ is probably going to be put out to pasture soon so they’ll have a reality show vacancy to fill. I really thought Nick learned his lesson and wasn’t going to go that route again after the trainwreck that was his last marriage, though. After Jessica left him, he told Rolling Stone that being on “Newlyweds” really messed up their relationship. He said “Jessica and I began playing these parts even when we were by ourselves… There was a question about what truly was our reality. When you are on a reality show, your life ceases to be reality. It becomes TV.” I guess when your career isn’t really going anywhere you might not have the choice not to turn your next relationship into a reality show too.

Yesterday a lot of sites ran the story about a 51 year-old character actor marrying a “16″ year-old former beauty pageant winner and aspiring singer as if it was completely accurate and disgusting. I found some photos of the woman, though, and the consensus is that she’s not under 25 if she’s a day. She looks closer to 40, although it’s possible that a great deal of plastic surgery and injectables have prematurely aged her. Several of you pointed out that her armpits look saggy despite how thin she is, and that doesn’t seem to happen until someone is in their 30s. It’s easier to assume that this woman is lying about her age than to confront the supposed reality that she’s underage and has married a guy old enough to be her grandpa. It’s technically legal for 16 year-olds to marry in Vegas with their parents’ consent, though, and Courtney’s mother told Radar that she’s more than happy that her daughter married this old skeeve.

That’s good news for newly married couple Courtney Alexis Stodden, the 16-year-old pop artist, and her 51-year-old husband, actor Doug Hutchison, since even the teen’s mother approves of their marriage.

“We are totally supportive of this marriage,” Courtney’s mother Krista Stodden exclusively told RadarOnline.com about her daughter’s marriage to the Green Mile and X-Files actor.

“Doug is a wonderful man and we love him.”

The happy couple tied the knot in Las Vegas, Nevada on May 20, and Krista confirmed that at least one parent had to sign the permission form for the marriage to take place.

“They are very much in love and we are so supportive of this,” Krista gushed about her blushing bride daughter.

Critics are already questioning the couple’s 35 year age difference, but her mother wanted to set the record straight.

“Courtney was a virgin when she married Doug. She is a good Christian girl.”

Meanwhile the happy couple said: “We’re aware that our vast age difference is extremely controversial, but we’re very much in love and want to get the message out there that true love can be ageless.”

With long blonde hair and a killer body, Krista also wants people to know that her daughter hasn’t had any plastic surgery.

“She is a beautiful girl. She has real breasts, real lips, she’s not plastic.”

[From Radar]

So this chick is 16, she’s a virgin and she’s all natural. This is hysterical! There’s some evidence that Courtney at least fooled the Miss Teen USA people into letting her compete last year. I’m still not buying this story at all.

Courtney competed in the “Miss Washington USA” contest in 2010 as “Miss Ocean Shores” and she uploaded this video of herself competing in it. She was supposedly 15 at the time, and she is listed on the Miss Washington USA website as competing that year. Look at this photo. It looks like a different woman or like the photo was taken 10-15 years ago. At least we have evidence that she’s had her boobs done.

Celebuzz has some more on Courteney, including a link to this modeling site where she lists her age as 17.

I’m still kind of baffled by this story, so I googled this girl’s mom, Krista Stodden, and I found her on Classmates.com. It’s clearly the same woman that is shown with Courtney in this photo from Courtney’s website:

According to Classmates.com, Krista Stodden graduated high school in 1978, which would make her around 50 years old, the same age as her daughter’s new husband. Sure it’s possible that she had a kid in her mid 30s. It’s also possible she had her in her early 20s. The plot thickens.

Here’s Courtney talking about “Cyber Bullying” in December, 2010. This chick is such a piece of work. At 2:20 she goes off “My breasts are rawl… my teeth are rawl, my eyelashes are rawl… everything about me is rawl.” (I got that creative spelling from a commenter on youtube.)

In your creepy story of the day news, 51 year-old actor Doug Hutchison, who played the mean jail guard Percy Wetmore in Green Mile, is very pleased to announce his marriage to a “16″ year-old beauty queen. When I first saw this dude’s picture and heard “Green Mile actor,” I thought he played the inmate who killed the little girls that the big healer guy got framed for murdering. (Spoiler, but if you haven’t seen it by now it’s your loss.) Then I realized that I really know this guy as Tooms from X-Files, a murderer shapeshifter who could fit into small places. He also played a murderer in A Time To Kill, and has been in episodes of SVU, Lost and 24.

I wrote all that before I saw the wedding photo on E! (I read about it first on Popeater, where they have a pic of the guy that makes him look incredibly old and pervy.) That chick looks 30-something. It’s hope it’s safe to assume she’s lying about her age. She’s 16 like her boobs are real. She might have a 16 year-old daughter though.

Hollywood has seen its fair share of odd couplings, but this one is so out there even the newlyweds know it’s a little weird.

Doug Hutchison, a character actor best known for roles in The Green Mile, Lost and The X-Files, married aspiring country singer Courtney Alexis Stodden on May 20 in Las Vegas.

He is 51. She is 16.

Is there something fishy about it? In an exclusive statement to E! News, the couple insists there’s not.

With Stodden, a former beauty pageant queen, trying to position herself as a potential Nashville star, you might think there’s more to the story than middle-age actor marrying pretty teenager (and that’s a lot of story, itself). However, the newlyweds tell us they’re just mad about each other.

“We’re aware that our vast age difference is extremely controversial,” the couple said through their spokeswoman.

“But we’re very much in love and want to get the message out there that true love can be ageless.”

[From Popeater]

Minors from the age of 16 can get married in Vegas with their parent’s permission. Still, that woman does not look under 30 to me. I hope this is just a way to get this story some coverage, but her website does claim she’s 16. Maybe she’s hoping to pass for 25 when she’s 50 and her face is frozen into a permanent grimace. Tooms still looks creepy as hell in that wedding portrait, like he’s planning to eat her liver later to get enough energy to crawl back into the ground and hibernate.

Here are more pictures of “16″ year-old Courtney Stodden, from her budget website. She looks more like a cougar than an innocent teenager. But in her really awful cheesy videos she possibly looks 20-something. She wouldn’t get carded, though. If that’s her real age that dude should be going to jail. In some states, he could be.

Here he is as Tooms.

What do you get for annoying famewhore with enough worthless luxury goods to fund the budget of a small municipality? More luxury goods! Kim Kardashian has registered for gifts for her wedding (scheduled for Halloween with no sense of irony) and it’s alternately amusing and anger-inducing. Kim wants a bunch of krap, predictably, and instead of earning it herself by pasting pre-written ads into Twitter or showing up to the opening of a toilet, she’s asking her wedding guests to buy it for her. This is a time honored tradition for weddings that aren’t funded by product placement, photo rights sales and reality show networks.

Crystal napkin rings, a $175 mustard jar, $6,000 vases and WAY more! Kim Kardashian and fiance Kris Humphries have given their wedding guests a plethora of suggestions on what to get them for their upcoming wedding. The couple registered at GEARYS, an upscale luxury seller of jewelry and homeware in Beverly Hills.

The prices vary — from a $12.50 cloth napkin to a $7,850 crystal vase. The reality star and her NBA beau would also like a $1,650 silver-plated coffeepot and 24 five-piece silverware sets, each costing $1,600. (That’s $38,400 worth of Torchon dinner place settings on one registry.)

Although Kardashian, 30, isn’t a big drinker, she and Humphries, 26, have requested 24 Baccarat Vega champagne flutes, each costing $130. They’ve also requested 24 of the Baccarat Vega goblets, which will set one back $125 each.

The duo only began dating in December 2010, but Humphries popped the question to his reality TV star love in May 2011. Khloe Kardashian joked that her sister Kim’s wedding is “going to be royal wedding number two!”

According to the couple’s registry, Kardashian and Humphries will say “I do” on October 31, 2011.

[From US Weekly]

You can see Kim and Kris’ gift registry here. I made a quick spreadsheet to tally up the cost of the items remaining, and it comes to $176,478. That’s chump change for a family that’s estimated to be worth $65 million and who stand to make $5 million plus on this wedding alone. So why can’t Kim buy her own $40k worth of place settings and ask guests to donate to charity? They could even funnel the money to that sketchy church-based charity her mom uses as a tax shelter.

It’s all about the money to the Kardashians, and it’s only the best for the star who fueled it all with a sex tape and is capping it off with a wedding to a guy she’s been dating for a whole six months. Kim told Jay Leno last night that she’s been with Kris for eight months, but she just broke up with Gabriel Aubry in December so that’s not true. She also said there wouldn’t be sponsors for the wedding and they “hadn’t made up their minds” whether the wedding would be filmed. What a joke. She did confirm that there was a prenup, and said that she would have a hyphenated name, Kardashian-Humphries. You know she’s going to be under a lot of pressure to pop out a kid fast to keep up the family business.

Last night on Leno, Jay attempted to set fire to Kim’s $2 million engagement ring in an attempt to see if it’s real. I guess diamonds will not catch fire. (Sources told Gossip Cop not a decoy. Whatever.) The ring immediately burned up and turned black, and then Jay brought out the real one, showing that he’d just used a zirconia to do the test.

Kim also addressed the “affair” rumors and said she’s “never heard of the guy,” and that “it’s so crazy to me that any random person can make up a story, call up a tabloid.” She added “these kind of people should really be ashamed of themselves for trying to get publicity off of people they don’t know.” That’s so ripe coming from a woman with no sense of shame.

Here are some photos from Lily Allen’s wedding yesterday. The bride wore an enormous Delphine Manivet gown and a veil reminiscent of Princess Leia’s Star Wars hair. I rather like the top part of the gown – the lace is nice, and it flatters her upper half. But the bottom is hideous with that flare at the bottom. I guess there was a reason for the enormous gown – shortly after the ceremony, the wedding gown designer confirmed Lily’s pregnancy. Lily is probably really pissed about that. She hates when people talk about her bidness… until she doesn’t hate it. Anyway, Lily married her boyfriend of several years, Sam Cooper, and her pregnancy comes very soon after she lost her last pregnancy at six months, back in November. She had been engaged to Sam Cooper for a while, although she publicly fought anyone and everyone for talking about it.

Lily Allen has two things to smile about.

The singer, 26, married Sam Cooper at St. James the Great Church in Gloucestershire, England, on Saturday – and the newlyweds are expecting a baby, according to reports.

Dressed in a gown with long lace sleeves and a fishtail skirt by French designer Delphine Manivet, the bride was given away by her father, Keith Allen, and then carried a bouquet of white roses as she made her way out of the church with her new husband to a waiting car as a crowd cheered.

“It’s beautiful that she is pregnant, and I am very happy for her. She is very happy about that – it is something wonderful,” Manivet told British paper The Telegraph. “For me, and for her too, when you’re pregnant you want to show that, but also be respectful, so the dress was perfect for her for that moment.”

Cooper revealed the happy baby news to wedding guests, according to the U.K.’s Daily Mail.

A rep for Allen could not be reached.

The baby news comes seven months after Allen and Cooper announced her heartbreaking miscarriage.

The wedding, which took place in the village of Cranham in the English countryside, was no secret. Allen’s wedding date was leaked to the press by an unknown guest, who sent the save-the-date card to British newspapers in March.

On Friday, Allen and Cooper were spotted arriving at the church for their rehearsal. Allen’s dad, an actor and musician, was also spotted with a ukulele – perhaps planning to serenade the happy couple.

Cooper, a decorator and business owner, popped the question during a romantic getaway last Christmas.

[From People]

Well, congratulations to Lily and Sam, for the wedding and for the pregnancy. I sincerely hope that Lily’s health keeps up and she has a quiet, uneventful, full-term pregnancy.

Here are some more photos from the wedding party yesterday. I think the groomsmen were in pink. And the girl in the boob dress is Lily’s sister, I think.

In Touch has some supposedly exclusive details about Jessica Simpson’s wedding plans to her former football player grad school dropout fiance, Eric Johnson. As she did for the courtship, her engagement ring, and their daily life together, Jessica is paying for the destination wedding, and why not? She’s loaded thanks to her fashion line and Eric is her date and companion and that’s about it. At least Jessica has a prenup, if rumors are to be believed.

Well Jessica and Eric got engaged on 11/11/10 and if In Touch is accurate they’ll be married on 11/11/11 at 11:11. It sounds cheesy and superstitious, but I still make a wish when I notice that the clock says it’s 11:11. I don’t schedule my life around numerology or astrology or anything though. Jessica seems to, and she should just trust her instincts and not try to get by with magical thinking. We’ve heard at least two stories this spring that she’s had cold feet. That happens when you just know you shouldn’t go through with it. Jessica is pushing forward, though, and is said to have been inspired and challenged by the royal wedding, and to want to use her wedding to get back in the spotlight.

After months of stalling, Jessica Simpson has finally agreed to an “I do” date – 11:11 a.m. on November 11, 2011- and she plans to ensure that her nuptials with Eric Johnson, 31, become the new wedding of the century!

“Jessica will be spending upward of $1 million, easily,” a source close to the singer, 30, tells In Touch of the splashy affair, which will take place on the romantic Hawaiian island of Kauai.

The surprise announcement is a huge relief to Jessica’s friends, who as In Touch previously reported, had all but given hope that the couple would ever make it to the altar. The reason for Jessica’s sudden wedding fever? It’s a last ditch attempt to revive her career, says another insider. “She was devastated when she didn’t get hired to be a judge on The X Factor….”

Now… inspired by the hysteria surrounding the royal wedding, Jessica has hired [planner] Mindy Weiss to oversee a headline-grabbing event that will help her reclaim the spotlight. “She’s flying more than 50 family members and friends to spend a week partying with her and Eric in Hawaii,” a friend of Jessica’s tells In Touch.

Between Weiss’ fee ($150,000), guests airfares ($50,000), rings ($100,000), hair and makeup ($25,000) and flowers ($10,000), the costs are already staggering. “She’s picking up the tab for everything,” says the friend, who notes that Eric is currently jobless.

Jessica refuses to spare any expense – least of all when it comes to her gown. Referring to the now-iconic Alexander McQueen dress worn by her bridal competition, Kate Middleton, Jessica has thrown down the gauntlet, declaring, “I’ll outdo her!”

[From In Touch, print edition, May 30, 2011]

You know that Jessica will outdo Kate Middleton by having bigger hair, a more elaborate dress, and a showier wedding. If it’s true that Jessica is trying to use her wedding as a way to wedge back into a show business career good luck with that. Reese scored the cover of People in her wedding gown and it didn’t help her movie at the box office at all.

The photos below are of Jessica Simpson having lunch with Eric’s family on mother’s day. This is how she dresses when she’s visiting with her future in laws, in a denim shirt with giant rose emblems on it, short shorts, platform sandals and a leopard purse.

Sarah Palin’s 22 year-old son, Track, just married his high school sweetheart in a small private ceremony. They’re going to have a big ski trip weekend blowout for friends and family to follow this Winter. I would normally float some conspiracy theories about how they needed to have a shotgun wedding, but if they’re having a ski weekend in about seven months that doesn’t make sense. At that point the bride would presumably be ready to pop or would have just had a baby. Still, she’s wearing a really loose top in the photos on People.

Sarah Palin’s eldest son, Track, 22, recently married his high school sweetheart, Britta Hanson, 21, in a small ceremony in Hatcher Pass, Alaska.

“Our families couldn’t be happier!” the Hansons and Palins tell PEOPLE in a joint statement. “These are two hard working, humble, active, studious young adults who grew up together. We’re tickled that after two decades of friendship we proudly witnessed their marriage, knowing their new life together will be blessed.”

The couple will have a larger wedding celebration this winter at Alaska’s Alyeska Ski Resort “when extended family and friends from the Lower 48 can travel north for a long ski weekend,” says the statement from Sarah and Todd Palin and the Rev. Duane and Elizabeth Hanson.

Britta and Track have been dating since high school. When Track was stationed overseas in 2008, Sarah Palin used to joke that she hadn’t heard from her son since his deployment, though his girlfriend had.

Track is now an Army Reservist who spent a year deployed in Iraq with a Ft. Wainwright Stryker Brigade. He plans to study at the University of Alaska after the commercial fishing season. Britta is a nursing student at the University of Alaska.

“The Hanson and Palin families are ecstatic and proud that Britta and Track married in one of our favorite spots in America, spectacular Hatcher Pass, Alaska,” says the statement. “It’s a site we’ve all shared fun memories of skiing, snowboarding, hiking and snowmachining.”

[From People]

Now that I’m reading about Track’s service record, I’m reminded that he’s the one who is rumored to have had a problem with drugs, particularly Oxycontin, before he went off to Iraq. Hopefully he’s cleaned up his life and is ready to settle down. Not a lot of 22 year-olds are.

They love alliterative names in the Palin family and Sarah’s youngest, three, is named Trig while her grandson from daughter Bristol is Tripp, two and a half. When this couple has a baby, probably about six to seven months from now, what are they going to call it, Truth? That’s a generic name that could apply to a boy or girl. Plus Sarah Palin thinks she corners the market on it.

I have no idea which of these wedding stories you want to hear about more, so you’re getting both of them in one post. Yesterday, Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton got married in Texas, and on Friday, Caleb Followill of Kings of Leo married Lily Aldridge (Victoria’s Secret model) in California. Do you care about one of the couples more than the other? Personally, I care more about Blake and Miranda, but because I think Blake might have some issues (the alleged homophobia stuff) and I was stunned to see that Miranda – while very cute/pretty – is 27 years old yet looks a decade older.

It’s official: Miranda Lambert is a married woman! The 27-year-old “House That Built Me” singer wed longtime love Blake Shelton late Saturday evening at Texas’ Don Strange Ranch, the couple confirms to Us Weekly exclusively.

Wearing her mother’s wedding dress, Lambert walked down the aisle in front of 550 family members and friends (including Reba McEntire, Cee Lo Green, Martina McBride, Dierks Bentley, Charles Kelly and the Bellamy Brothers).

“I’m married to my best friend!” Lambert told Us after the ceremony. “Looking forward to a lifetime of laughter.”

Added Shelton, 34: “I wanted to be married to Miranda the day I proposed. Finally, it’s official!”

Dating since 2006, The Voice mentor asked for Lambert’s hand in marriage last May. “I fumbled it up a little,” he told Us of the proposal. “It’s funny how you rehearse those things and go over what you want to say, but I probably screwed it up.”

Fortunately, Lambert didn’t seem to notice. “He did a really good job,” she insisted. “He’s always nervous around me, though — and that’s how I like it!”

This is the first marriage for Lambert; Shelton was married to Kaynette Williams from 2003-2006.

[From Us Weekly]

It all sounds very sweet. I like that Miranda could have gone with some big designer wedding dress but she wore her mom’s. That’s cool.

Moving on… Caleb and Lily’s wedding sounded a lot more expensive and fancy:

It was a ceremony fit for a King and a Queen. When Kings of Leon rocker Caleb Followill wed Victoria’s Secret supermodel Lily Aldridge at San Ysidro Ranch in Montecito, Calif. on Thursday, the couple were joined by Caleb’s bandmates and brothers, Nathan and Jared Followill, as well as his cousin, Matthew Followill.

Hours before the intimate ceremony began, Caleb, 29, and Aldridge, 25, enjoyed a family breakfast on the patio overlooking the garden. “Caleb and Lily had coffee and pastries and everyone sat around chatting,” a source tells Us Weekly. “There was a relaxed vibe and everyone took their time eating and taking in the nice weather.”

Once the meal was over, Aldridge and a girlfriend left to begin prepping for the 5:30 p.m. ceremony; Caleb and his family stayed behind, where they tanned by the pool, drank champagne and played horse shoes. “Caleb seemed very relaxed and not nervous at all,” the insider notes.

Aldridge, who wore a custom-made Vera Wang gown, and Caleb, who looked dapper in a Gucci suit, “said their vows underneath a big tree with twinkle lights” just before sunset. “Lily cried throughout the whole thing,” a second source tells Us. Once the ceremony was over, the couple and their guests had dinner in front of a big stone fireplace, the source adds.

“It was a perfect day,” Caleb told Us on Friday.

The couple spent their first night as newlyweds in the Lilac Cottage, a one bedroom cabin featuring a king bed, a masonry fireplace, heated bathroom floors and an outdoor sunken hot tub and rain shower. The price? $1,200 a night.

The following morning, “Caleb and Lily met with their family again for a big relaxed brunch,” the source says. “Everyone sat outside for hours chit chatting and talking about the night.”

[From Us Weekly]

Meh. See, this one is boring to me. Rock star marries Victoria’s Secret model. It’s such a cliché. At least the Blake-Miranda pairing has some drama!

Congratulations to everybody, though. Mazel tov!

When I heard that Marie Osmond, 51, was remarrying her husband, I thought it was the guy she was last divorced from, Brian Blosil. It turns out Blosil was her second husband and Marie had reunited with her first husband, Stephen Craig, 54, whom she divorced in 1985 after being married to for just three years. Marie has a son with Stephen who is 28 and also named Stephen. Marie wore the same dress to her wedding in Las Vegas this week that she wore back in 1982 for their first wedding. She originally planned to wear a new dress, but told Entertainment Tonight that once she saw the dress that was custom-designed for her she realized “it was not right” and was in tears. Marie explained that she just happened across her old wedding gown five days before the wedding when she was cleaning out her garage.

Nearly 30 years after their 1982 marriage and subsequent divorce three years later, Marie Osmond and former basketball player Stephen Craig got married for a second time Wednesday in Las Vegas, her rep confirms to PEOPLE.

“I am so happy and look forward to sharing my life with Stephen, who is an amazing man as well as a great father to my children,” says Osmond, 51, who has a son, Stephen, 28, with Craig, 54.

The couple were married in a private ceremony at the Las Vegas Mormon Temple and celebrating at a reception at their Nevada home.

Osmond wore the same wedding dress, designed by Ret Turner, that she wore at the couple’s first wedding.

Wednesday’s wedding date is significant to Osmond and Craig as it marks the birthdays of both Marie’s late son Michael and late mother Olive. “It was important that both Michael and my mom were with us on this special day,” says Osmond.

Craig is a former professional basketball player and travels the country as a motivational speaker. Osmond is currently performing, with her brother Donny, on stage at the Flamingo Hotel in Las Vegas, and just this week released Donny & Marie, their first studio album together in 30 years.

“These two people are right for each other,” Donny tells ET. “My sister is so happy.”

[From People]

The Enquirer has run quite a few stories about Marie, but I haven’t paid much attention to them. Looking over past issues, there was a November cover story last year (image below) about how her second husband, Brian Blosil, abused her physically and emotionally and was suspected of molesting one of their children. It sounded like a nightmare. Marie and Brian had seven children together, including a biological son and daughter and five adopted children. Marie’s 18 year-old adopted son, Michael, committed suicide last February, 2010, by jumping from his apartment building in Los Angeles.

So Marie really deserved some happiness in her life after everything she’s gone through and it’s nice to hear that she’s found it with her first husband. According to the Enquirer, Marie and Stephen hit a rough patch back in February of this year and called off their wedding for a while. They’ve obviously worked it out, though and were ready to make it official again. Congratulations to Marie and Stephen! Do you think that the decorations at the reception included any of her dolls? She has a bridal one that would go nicely with the theme.

This cover is about Marie’s second husband, not the guy she just remarried. It’s from November, 2010:

This news actually shocked me a little. Not that I didn’t fully expect LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian to get married – I did, and I bet LeAnn was dumb enough to do it without a prenup too. No, what shocked me is that they managed to get married without a lot of hoopla, on a Friday afternoon/evening, before a holiday, and one week before The Wedding of the Century (Prince William and Kate Middleton). It’s almost like… LeAnn was trying NOT to be a famewhore. Odd, right? Oh, well. Now the deed is done so I suppose we can start the official countdown for Eddie’s infidelity:

It’s official: Eddie Cibrian and LeAnn Rimes are husband and wife!

“LeAnn and Eddie were happily married today surrounded by their closest family and friends,” the bride’s spokesman, Rhett Usry, confirms exclusively to PEOPLE. “They thank everyone for their well wishes.”

Country star Rimes, 28, wore a Reem Acra gown as she and actor Cibrian, 37, exchanged personalized vows on Friday in front of about than 40 guests, including Cibrian’s sons Mason, 7, and Jake, 4, from his previous marriage.

The couple had led friends and family to believe that they’d been invited to an engagement party, but surprised the guests by tying the knot at the intimate ceremony held at a private home in California.

“I’m looking forward to settling down,” Rimes recently told PEOPLE of her impending nuptials. “Settling into our life.”

The couple got engaged in December when Cibrian proposed with a 5-carat diamond ring from jeweler Brent Polacheck, who also crafted their wedding bands.

[From People]

Well… congratulations to the couple. I guess. Sure. All I can think about is how awful she must have looked, a bag of bones and a pair of bolt-ons, sauntering down the aisle in a God-awful, tacky gown. I wonder if she’s going to sell the photos? People Magazine, you think?

By the way, a lot of people are talking about LeAnn’s new interview for this show, Great American Country. LeAnn played the victim card over and over again. Here’s some of what she said:

On her divorce from Dean Sheremet: “I know I didn’t do it the right way. I didn’t have the tools to know how to do it the right way, how to let go the right way. I’d never been taught that…I think I felt really abandoned – I think abandoned is a really good word – because of our divorce. Not only that, our divorce became so much bigger because it was so publicized.”

Learning from her mistakes by screwing Eddie: “I have the strength [now] but I didn’t at the time… So, it got really messy, but I have learned a lot from that. And I’m not glad it happened, but I know why it did.”

The “double standard” for country music men: “[Country music] has such a double standard. You know, Willie Nelson and Johnny Cash and all these guys. God knows what they did back in the day? And if a woman did it, you never were accepted or forgiven. But if it was a guy, it was just their life… It’s quite interesting to have to navigate those waters as a woman in this business.”

[Quotes via The Mail]

Ugh. I can’t even start with her. SHE felt abandoned? And she really thinks she’s like the most special, A-list superstar, doesn’t she? It’s even worse when you see the video:
