Paul McCartney and Nancy Shevell: Married!

Paul McCartney and Nancy Shevell got married today in London. The Beatles legend, 69, and New York businesswoman, 51, have been dating since 2007, after he divorced Heather Mills. They announced their engagement in May. The couple were greeted with jubilation as they arrived at the Old Marylebone Town Hall, which was opened especially for the event. Here’s a photo of the newlyweds: Shevell wore a flower in her hair and long-sleeved, v-neck, knee-length ivory dress and shoes by her new stepdaughter, fashion designer Stella McCartney. Stella, whose mother is the late Linda McCartney, Paul’s wife of 29 years until her 1998 death, also made her dad’s navy blue suit for the occasion. McCartney’s daughter with Mills, seven-year-old Beatrice, served as the flower girl. Shevell’s college-age son, Arlen, was also in attendance at the affair. Famous guests included Barbara Walters (a cousin of Nancy Shevell , interestingly), Paul’s brother Mike, Ringo Starr, and George Harrison’s widow, Olivia. McCartney and Shevell waved to guests as they left the Town Hall amid a shower of rose petals tossed by guests. For all involved, it was a day to savor. “It was terrific – thank you!” McCartney told the crowd, joking with fans that he felt “married” and asking reporters in jest, “What are you all doing here?” [Photo: WENN.com]

Michael Jackson’s Kids Honor Dad in Wales

Christina Aguilera rocked the house and Jennifer Hudson no-showed , but the big story of the Michael Forever tribute concert was the appearance by his kids. Michael Jackson’s children Prince, 14, Paris, 13 and Blanket, 9, took the stage briefly in Cardiff, Wales, to introduce a live satellite performance by Beyonce. “We’re very happy to be here on this special night to honour our father,” said Paris, dressed in an exact replica of the jacket MJ wore in his “Thriller” video. Prince’s outfit conjures up images of “Bad,” while young Blanket went for one of his dad’s more recent looks, with the long hair and the signature armband: The legendary singer, perhaps the single most successful artist in modern music, died in 2009 aged 50 while rehearsing for a series of comeback concerts. The Michael Forever tribute concert coincides with the involuntary manslaughter trial of the singer’s doctor, Dr. Conrad Murray , currently underway in L.A. Prince, Paris and Blanket have agreed to boycott coverage of the trial, though Prince has also said he will testify if called by the prosecution in the case. Michael’s brothers Jermaine and Randy boycotted the tribute show, calling it ”ill-timed” and ‘inappropriate” given the criminal proceedings taking place. Janet Jackson was less opposed to the show, but declined to perform because it would be “too painful”. In any case, here’s a video of Michael Jackson’s kids … Paris, Prince and Blanket at Michael Forever Concert
