I think I might have been slightly mean a few days ago, summarizing all the break-ups of the year. Starting 2007 as a bitter, vicious single woman would not do me any good, I thought, and since we’re still a few days away from the end of 2006, I may have a small chance of fixing it and making Santa see I’m a good girl…
Oh, who am I kidding? This’ll never work, I’m a bitch. But still for the sake of those who may wonder, here are some of the big and interesting weddings and engagements our stars has experienced.

2006 was painted in pink as singer Alecia Moore, A.K.A Pink, married motocross racer and The Surreal Life star Carey Hart in Costa Rica. She probably picked him cause of the fact he had more tattoos than her – well, he does own a tattoo parlor… and they share a “Tru Luv” one. So sweet… and pink… darn, I have to do something about my sense of humor.
It must have been the week of trouble-makers, since rapper Eminem re-married his wife a week after. Though as we already know, they got re-divorced within a few months. On the same note, Brittany Murphy got engaged, but broke the engagement later. Look, I’m really trying to write about happy stuff here, but it’s not easy!
Keith Urban got engaged to Nicole Kidman on May, married her on June and got into rehab on October. A year full of highlights, no doubt. Casey Affleck married Summer Phoenix, and I’m only mentioning that because of their older brothers, Ben Affleck and Juaquine Phoenix. I wouldn’t have written about Patricia Arquette’s wedding either, if
it wasn’t for the weird thingy she was wearing on her head.
Comedian Jay Mohr got engaged to actress Nikki Cox, and Actress Neve Campbell got engaged as well. Glenn Close married her beloved boyfriend in a quiet ceremony in Maine, and Lisa Marry Presley exchanged vows with music producer Michael Lockwood in Japan. Her ex husband was the groom’s best man, and hopefully this round will last longer then the previous 3.
Jack Black has secretly married his girlfriend, and Nicolette Sheridan made sure she won’t become a Desperate Houswife and got engaged to boyfriend Michael Bolton. Marcia Cross made sure to follow later this year, and got married on June. Richard Dreyfuss married his girl as well, but I’m not sure anyone cares about it.
Charming Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard got engaged on April, and got pregnant shortly after. Their first daughter, Ramona, came into this world just recently. This name is so out of context, that it’s really cool. And then came Tori spelling. She married Dean McDermott on May and only then got the bun in the oven, probably trying to play the good girl part, but the fact her hubbie left his wife for her after 9 years of marriage kinda messed it up. I have many evil things to say about that, but the girl’s pregnant so I’ll shut it.
Rocker Avril Lavigne married Sum 41 frontman Deryck Whibley at a private estate in Montecito, Calif., and Ex-Savage Garden frontman Darren Hayes followed Elton John and the British law and married his boyfriend of two years, Richard Cullen. On the same month Pam Anderson married Kid Rock (again. And again and again…), later got pregnant, had a miscarriage, and of course, got divorced.
French actor Jean Reno married model-actress Zofia Borucka and Kanye West got engaged to Girlfriend Alexis. So did Superman Returns star, Brandon Routh, though he’s not engaged to Alexis but to Courtney Ford. 2 doctors joined the couplehood group, when Scrubs star John C. McGinley gave a 2-carat-plus ring to his “rock” – his yoga teacher girlfriend, and Grey’s Anatomy’s Ellen Pompeo got engaged to record producer Chris Ivery, who proposed to the actress after a birthday breakfast. They were followed by another Scrubs star, Sarah Chalke who’s engaged to long her time boyfriend.

The year ended with joy and happiness as the decorated broom stick, Lara Flynn Boyle married her dude, Donald Ray Thomas, on Dec. 18th, but no doubt, wedding of the year belongs to the midget and the Cheshire cat’s smile owner, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, who finally got married on November and hopefully would rid us from their annoying presence for a while. Well, until Tom will finally comes out of the closet, or Suri will go back to her native alien parents, I guess.
