Katie Hodgson, 23, and Darren McWalters, 24, got married strapped to the top of biplanes, reciting vows 1,000 feet above the earth.
Katie took to the skies Tuesday in a full bridal gown on the top wing of red-and-white plane operated by a group of stunt pilots.
Groom Darren flew by her side on an identical plane, while Rev. George Bringham — flying ahead of the couple — married them over an airborne communications system.
The bride’s dressed fluttering wildly in foul weather as the three shouted to make themselves heard over the din of the aircraft.
“I ask you therefore, will you love her, honor and keep her and be faithful to her so long as you both shall live?” Bringham yelled.
“I will!” McWalters yelled back.
The airplanes sent out trails of white smoke as the couple belted out their vows. Special microphones relayed the ceremony to where the wedding guests were waiting.
Wind and rain eventually cut the flight short, but the couple said they had a blast.
McWalters told Sky: “We are a bit crazy together … so we wanted something that suited.”
Doesn’t a lil cleanliness and a father’s conservatorship make a world of difference?!
Anywho, Brit Brit went shopping on Robertson Blvd. yesterday where the paps took some pics.
Also, word on the blogs is that Quentin Tarantino wants Brit Brit to star as a psycho killer lesbian in his next movie, a remake of the 1965 cult classic Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!
Britney would play, Varla, a psycho killer lesbian stripper who kills men and has sex scenes with another woman.
A source said, “Quentin is convinced Britney will be brilliant. She’s delighted. She thinks it could turn her career and her life around. It is perfect Tarantino material. He wanted to get Britney first. She’s playing the most important character.”
Well, Brit Brit’s already psycho, she’s hooked up with chicks, acted a damn stripper clown in her “Gimme More” video … The ‘killer’ part is the only thing that’ll be a stretch for her. Perfect role!
Scarlett Johansson is blaming “extreme sexism” for the hoopla made over her comments that she had an e-mail relationship with Barack Obama.
“I kept thinking to myself, ‘God, if this was just, like, Kal Penn or George Clooney, or any of the other [Obama] surrogates or supporters … there wouldn’t be [any] question about it,” the actress, 23, tells the Associated Press. “Nobody would even talk about it.”
In June, Johansson said she had a “personal dialogue,” via email, with the Democratic presidential hopeful.
But Johansson now tells the AP she didn’t mean to suggest the two were pen pals.
“I was merely trying to express my delight at Obama’s commitment in his campaign in every aspect, and his interest and his support [in] his surrogates, and his staff and his fellows, and how wonderful and refreshing that is,” she says. “And it was manipulated into such an unfortunate media frenzy of kind of a non-story.”
Poor thing was justifiably butt hurt over Barack’s public revelation that they don’t do emails, but bitch sounds effing stupid. If any celebrity, male or female, said he or she exchanges emails with Barack Obama, it would be news! You can’t mention a presidential candidate and expect it to be a “non-story.” I’m non-into Scar Jo’s nonsensical explanation for her nonsense.
I say they read my post. Beyonce and Jay-Z are touching, oh shiz! And it’s not even at night! B deserves a man who can’t take his hands off her indoors and outdoors, at least that’s how I like it. Is Beyonce’s left hand in Jay’s back pocket? You can tell she’s soaking up this lovin’. Good for her.
Beyoncé displays her support for presidential candidate Barack Obama while hanging out with husband Jay-Z in New York City on Monday, the couple’s four-month wedding anniversary.
Leonardo DiCaprio’s maternal grandmother Helene Indenbirken has died at the age of 93.
Indenbirken passed away in a hospital in her native North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.
A cause of death has not yet been reported.
Leo was very close to Indenbirken — the wife of a coal miner — whom he often referred to as “Oma.”
The two would see each other whenever DiCaprio was in Europe (he was photographed August 4 on a yacht in Ibiza, Spain). She also accompanied him to many movie premieres, including 2005’s The Aviator.
“I love spending time with her because she is gangsta, with an ‘a,’” he told Vanity Fair in 2004. “She will tell people exactly what she thinks to their face.”
DiCaprio told Vanity Fair his grandmother also saved his mother’s life.
A toddler during World War II, his mother, Irmelin, suffered a broken leg. His grandmother nursed her back to health in a German hospital.
“All these refugees from the war and all the soldiers came into the hospital,” DiCaprio told Vanity Fair. “She ended up contracting five or six major illnesses and stayed for two and a half, three years.
“My grandmother basically came every day and nursed her back to health because the nurses didn’t have time.”
You know Jenny’s just tryin’ to give John Mayer some ideas. OK! claims that Jennifer Aniston, 39, is planning a low-key wedding to her Johnny this fall. OK! even has some details:
She will wear a Vera Wang dress, there will orchids everywhere and they will serve champagne and caviar. “She’s at an age where she is thinking with her head not just her heart.”
Yeah, ya, ya, Katie’s sweet and all, but bitch is weird. She has the oddest, granny-like fashion choices, no friends except for her master, Tom, and she keeps cutting off her locks. You can tell she has no personality and probably thinks going out after 10 p.m. is a sin.
Katie Holmes just had her bob chopped off into a shaggy, pixie-esque crop. The actress, who’s turned into something of a style chameleon this year, was spotted in New York on the way to a stage rehearsal for her new Broadway show showing off her new ‘do – turning heads of passers-by, and the assembled paparazzi.
