Three Weddings And A Divorce Smackdown

Love was in the air this weekend as three celebrity weddings took place.


American Idol runner up Crystal Bowersox wed musician Brian Walker in a small ceremony in Chicago.

Brothers And Sisters star Dave Annabale and actress Odette Yusman also wed this past weekend.  Putting their own touch on the ceremony, the bride walked down the aisle to The Beatles All You Need Is Love.  Co-star Ron Rifkin officiated the nuptials while Matthew Rhys was David's best man.

Alexa Vega, star of The Spy Kids, wed her boyfriend Sean Covel, who produced Napoleon Dynamite.  The actress and producer wed in South Dakota at the Homestake Opera House.

And while love was in full bloom, there was also a storm brewing.  Singer Ben Harper blindsided his actress wife Laura Dern by filing for a divorce after five years of marriage.  Ben claims in the filing that the he has been separated from his wife since January, however the couple has been seen together at events as late as last weekend.  Ben has also decided to go for sole custody for their 9 year old son and 5 year old daughter.  Looks like Laura may have a fight on her hands.

This Is The Next American Idol

On Tuesday night's American Idol, I was told that the entire show was not worth watching.  But that I should watch Crystal Bowersox's performance of Janis Joplin's Me And Bobby McGee.  So I didn't watch the episode, but I YouTubed this clip above and was blown away.  Simon himself told this young woman that her rendition was better than Pink's performance.  Both gave me goosebumps and though I cannot say she is better than Pink, sorry.  I do agree that she has what it takes to become the next American Idol.

Below is a much younger Pink showing us why she has rocketed to the star that she is today.
