Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Weddings, Videos,
Four weeks after Ellen Degeneres wed girlfriend Portia de Rossi, actor George Takei got his turn. On Sunday, the 71-year-old Star Trek legend wed his partner of 21 years in Los Angeles. The Buddhist ceremony came three months after Takei and Brad Altman, 54, lined up to obtain their marriage license.
Approximately 200 people were present for the nuptials, which was held at the Japanese American National Museum. Former Trek co-star Nichelle Nichols (Uhura) served as the Best Lady while Walter Koenig (Chekov) played the role of Best Man.
You can see a portion of the long-awaited wedding procession below:

Jennifer Hudson Engaged to I Love New York Star
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Music, Television, Engagements, Videos,
Earlier this year, singer Jennifer Hudson scored an engagement ring in the theatrical version of Sex and the City. Now the Academy Award winner is having the chance to celebrate for real.
This weekend, a rep for Hudson confirmed the American Idol star is now engaged. Boyfriend David Otunga proposed Friday night during a bash for Jennifer’s 27th birthday.
Although many had thought Jennifer would eventually wed her longtime beau from Chicago (the man she acknowledged in her acceptance speech), the two broke up in late 2007 after 8 years together. This engagement to Otunga (also from Chicago) comes after less than a year of dating.

Had Hillary Clinton won the Democratic nomination, there’s a chance we would be talking about a demand on pantsuits right now. (Probably not, but it’s possible.) But since she wasn’t, the fashion focus has now been placed on the other females currently in the political spotlight.
Ever since Sarah Palin’s appearances at the Republic National Convention, interest in the candidate’s $375 glasses have reportedly quadrupled. According to Italee Optics Inc., the manufacturer is now having to produce the eyewear around the clock.
This news comes months after Michelle Obama appeared on The View in another must-have piece. Once it was revealed that her black-and-white dress was an off the rack item purchased at White House Black Market, the retailer was flooded with calls for the $148 garment.

Celebrity Double-Take: Gerard Butler vs. Joshua Jackson
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Television, Photos,
In today’s installment, we have Gerard Butler on the left and Joshua Jackson on the right.
If the producers of Fringe ever craft a body-swapping episode, maybe they should give the 300 actor a ring.

Taylor Momsen: Fashionably Misguided Gossip Girl
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Clothing, Fashion Police, Style,
In most cases, working in a fashion-driven environment usually has its benefits. Unfortunately, Taylor Momsen has not yet reaped any of those. These two pictures clearly show that the Gossip Girl hasn’t walked away with anything from her CW show - whether it be clothes from the drama’s wardrobe department or knowledge from the costume designers.
Ironically, both of these outfits were worn during New York’s Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. (The black deal on the left was worn at the Fashion Rocks event last Friday; the potato sack on the right was worn earlier this week at one of the runway shows.)
Sorry, Jenny Humphrey. If you really want to be accepted in Blair Waldorf’s inner circle, looking like Tara Reid isn’t the way to go.

Hollywood Baby Roundup: September 9, 2008
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Music, Sports, Television, Celebrity Babies, Pregnancies,
Ladies and gents - it’s time once again to recap those celebs currently heading toward parenthood. (Who knew a list written just two weeks ago would already be outdated?)
- Usher: Sources are reporting that the musician and his wife, Tameka Foster, are already expecting their second child. The newlyweds, who were married last fall, welcomed a son, Usher Raymond V, just 10 months ago. With any luck, the two will be saying hello to their first daughter this time around. Otherwise, we may be introduced to Usher Raymond VI sooner than expected.
- Minnie Driver: The 38-year-old Riches star became a first-time mother this past weekend. Henry Story Driver, who weighed in at a healthy 9 lbs., 12 oz., was born Friday in Los Angeles. The unmarried actress has opted against publicly naming the father of her child.

Victoria Beckham and Jennifer Lopez’s Pose Off
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Music, Television, Style,
There’s nothing like a little competition between friends…right?
Last night during Mercedes-Benz’s Fashion Week, new BFFs Victoria Beckham (with a fresh Mia Farrow-inspired cut) and Jennifer Lopez enjoyed the Marc Jacobs fashion show together. But based on their carefully thought out poses, you’d have thought the two ladies were the models, not the observers.
Had I not known these two were gal pals, I would have sworn they were trying to outpose each other. Then again - maybe they were.

Alec Baldwin vs. My Name is Earl
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Television, Meltdowns, Rivalries, Breaking News,
When Hollywood’s teen starlets engage in a feud, it’s usually over some hot young male celeb. When mature female stars squabble, it’s usually about publicity - and which one of them has a book out that talks about the feud. When well-established males in the industry start trading catty comments like a couple of kids…that’s entertainment.
Alec Baldwin started the brawl of the comments in the New Yorker. In Baldwin’s lengthy New Yorker profile, the actor launched into a gripe aimed at NBC shows My Name is Earl and Scrubs. Baldwin can currently be seen on NBC show 30 Rock, but after this one has to wonder for how long. When speaking of 30 Rock, Baldwin said, “if the show does succeed, it’ll be something of a [expletive deleted] miracle, because NBC hasn’t done a [expletive deleted] thing to help this show at all.” He further went on to state that NBC has “gone out of their way to wring the last drops out of My Name Is Earl and Scrubs. Those shows are done! They’re cooked! Yet they do a one-hour episode of Earl. You’ve got to be [expletive deleted] kidding me.”

Celebrity Fashion Trend: The Green Dress
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Television, Clothing, Style, Photos,
Now that summer is coming to an end, it’s now time to bring out the shades reminiscent of fall.
These green dresses - like the orange ones we profiled earlier - are not outfits than can be easily worn by everyone. How do you think these three ladies (Dita Von Teese, Kirsten Dunst, Carla Cugino) did?

Tension on the Brothers & Sisters Set
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Hook-ups, Rivalries, Rumors,
Ever since the news of Balthazar Getty and Sienna Miller’s relationship came out, the blonde actress has been getting grief in many different forms. One minute she is snapped crying at a gas station and the next minute her house is being vandalized.
But as we all know - it takes two to tango. So it’s at least nice to know that Getty is receiving his fair share of the cold shoulders out there. Unfortunately for Balthazar, he has to face that tension every time he shows up to work.
