Elisha Cuthbert has found her happy ending. The Canadian actress tied the knot with her longtime, hockey star love Dion Phaneuf Saturday, according to the Journal Pioneer of Prince Edward Island. Cuthbert wed the Toronto Maple Leafs captain at the St. James Catholic Church in Summerfield, P.E.I., with a reception for nearly 300 guests at Phaneuf’s home. Toronto Star reporter Rosie DiManno live-tweeted the hockey star’s nuptials from inside the church (which was fittingly decorated with maple leaves). “It’s a big wedding, probably the biggest I’ve ever done in my 46 years, as far as the celebrity part of it goes,” said Rev. Paul Egan to the publication. The couple began dating five years ago. Dion Phaneuf popped the question last September and announced their engagement to 35 friends and family during a lobster dinner at New Glasgow Lobster. Congrats to the newlyweds!!
A straight father’s open letter to his young son regarding last week’s landmark Supreme Court rulings has gone viral, and it’s easy to see why. His four-year-old boy clearly has no concept of the Supreme Court or the significance of its decisions, as Brian Gresko of The Babble points out. The bigger question is whether the SCOTUS striking down DOMA and dismissing Prop 8 will be seen as a watershed moment when he does get it. It’s a touching letter about what a father hopes will be a teachable moment someday, and emblematic of his desire for our children to inherit a better world. Read what Gresko has to say below: Dear Felix, Your mom and I put off taking you for a blood test because, honestly, we figured you didn’t really need it, that the doctor’s concerns about the level of lead in your body were the routine kind of doctor’s orders we could ignore . Doc has since corrected us of that misconception, stressing the importance of the blood test. (And we wonder where your stubbornness comes from.) Ok, point taken. So, at least a year late, this morning we walked in to get your blood work done just as the waiting room television cut to the steps of the Supreme Court Building, where the announcement came that the Court had ruled 5-4 to strike down the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), declaring the law baring the federal government from recognizing same-sex marriages unconstitutional . You’re four-years-old as I write this. You seem to react to adults who make good eye contact, speak with animation, get down to your level to talk to you, and ask you questions that you understand and then listen to your answers. You click with men, you click with women, and as far as I can remember you only asked once about why one of your best friends has two mommies. When I told you that couples come in all combinations – woman and woman, man and woman, man and man – you nodded and that was that. No big deal. So sitting with you in the waiting room, I had one of those moments of double-ness that parents sometimes have, as I thought about the news and what it meant, watched the happy reactions from the crowd of marriage equality supporters, and wondered what celebration might be going on in other parts of New York City, all while talking with you about the upcoming blood test and reading you a story. I didn’t explain what was happening on the television, and you didn’t ask. I figured the time will come soon enough – probably too soon for my liking – when you’ll be aware of the politics around sex and gender and sexual orientation. Or maybe you won’t. Hopefully, these issues will be moot in seven years time, or ten years, whenever you become aware of your sexual self (let’s go with ten years, eh?) and begin to find other people compelling in ways that will, at first, probably seem strange or mysterious. (For example, I didn’t notice girls had legs till eighth grade. Before then, I’m not sure how they got around, their mobility was no concern of mine. Suddenly, when springtime came and the skirts came out, their long, skinny, graceful limbs became vitally important. And yet I had no idea why. I just found them… fascinating. I knew they were key characters, I just hadn’t figured out what the story was about yet.) Maybe you’ll read about today’s decision in a history book and it’ll sound like a long time ago, the Dark Ages, when certain couples could marry and certain couples could not. You’ll feel comfortable pursuing whatever kind of partnership interests you, no matter the person’s gender, or color, or race, or class, or belief system, or whatever, and live in a country in which you can join in the legal state of matrimony with that lucky person. I hope that by then American society will have a better understanding of what I saw all so plainly today. That if you prick our skin, the same red blood flows through all of our veins. These differences in appearance and behavior and belief in many ways are trivial, surface. How you treat other people, your stewardship of our planet and society and yourself as a functioning, contributing human on Earth, matters so much more than who you’d like to date, have sex with, or marry. As Kurt Vonnegut so succinctly put it, “You’ve got to be kind.” Other than that? Have fun, kid. And while this marriage thing sure ain’t easy – in fact, I don’t wish it on anyone who doesn’t feel ready, 100% sure they want to make their commitment into a socially recognized, legal bond – I’m happy knowing that if, one day, you think you’re ready to take the plunge, you can do it with whomever the hell you want. And I’ll be right there (unless you decide to elope like your mom and me decided, which is totally cool too), cheering you on and wishing you well, no matter whose hand you’re holding when you say “I do.” Love ya kid, Dad .
Leyla Ghobadi would like to make a slight amend to her claim that she slept with Kanye West while he was dating Kim Kardashian: In a new interview, the 26-year old Canadian model says she did NOT sleep with Kanye West while he was dating Kim Kardashian. So there you go. “We met backstage, as I knew members of his band,” Ghobadi tells The Sun . “We ended up having sex at the Thompson Hotel.” Leyla says she was then flown to Kanye’s Toronto concert two days later and “had sex again” with the star. HOWEVER: “This was all before Kim Kardashian and he never spoke about her.” That is quite the change from the model’s previous position, when she told Star that Kanye laughed off his relationship with Kardashian as a publicity stunt. Kanye quickly came out and shot down Ghobadi’s claims , which have now shifted from cheating allegations to a cheating warning for Kim Kardashian: “He will never be faithful to one girl and has women falling at his feet all the time,” she tells the British newspaper. We somehow down Kim and Kanye care at the moment, however. They are brand new parents !
Miley Cyrus has seemingly taken a side in her parents’ divorce. A few days after Tish Cyrus filed for a legal split from Billy Ray Cyrus, the couple’s famous daughter took to Twitter and posted a photo of herself, 13-year old sister Noah and their mom. And she captioned it: “The baddest bitches in the WORLD.” Safe to assume she means that in the most loving way possible. Miley later Tweeted a photo of herself and her mother and included with it three hearts. But the 20-year old star didn’t forget about Billy Ray entirely, despite sending out a bitter Tweet on the day his divorce was announced. “Happy Daddy Day @billyraycyrus,” Cyrus wrote this morning, just days after posting on the social media site: “Billy Ray Cyrus, since your text and email obviously aren’t working would you like to talk like this?” Ouch . Looks like all it far from calm in the Cyrus household. We hope it all works out.
An app called Lulu is emerging as a controversial new social platform that allows women to post reviews and recommendations about former flames. The app, which is available for iOS and Android, is for women only. Men are denied access to Lulu, deeming it a “safe zone” for females to rate dudes on a various topics, from humor and careers to kissing and sex. Yes … just like reviewing / rating the Justin Bieber Girlfriend perfume on Amazon, you can review whether your guy smells like Bieber in real life. If you’re a female of at least 18 years, you can get the app and sync it to Facebook, then simply add a guy to the database and upload his picture(s). Users are anonymous and activities are kept off Facebook, but one has the ability to share profiles and searchable hashtags with Facebook friends. For instance, characteristics likes #globetrotter and #cleansupgood were listed on a profile, or #smokeslikeachimney for the other side of the coin. The app asks you to identify your relationship with a guy in order to review him, then asks you a series of questions and tries to sum up your answers. While it seems like this could become the newest, trendiest platform for hilarious guy-bashing, Lulu claims that a majority of its reviews are positive. In fact, some women are even using the Lulu app to get the word out about their brothers or available male co-workers … in a good way of course. The goal, says CEO Alexandra Chong, is to provide intel on the guy who’s #SweetToMom and #BelievesInLove yet may also be #RudeToWaiters and #CrazyJealous. What do you think? Have you used the app? Does it sound like a good platform for evaluating dates as if they were consumer products? Discuss!
Chris Brown has confirmed that he and Rihanna have in fact split, again. He gave an interview this weekend in which he put it in no uncertain terms. Rihanna’s absence – and Karrueche Tran ‘s presence – on Chris Brown’s 24th birthday did not go unnoticed, and the star was asked about it Sunday. In a new interview with the Australian radio station 2DayFM, he said: “I’mma do it solo. I mean, at the end of the day, shawty doin’ her own thing, she on the road. It’s always gonna be love. I’m a grown man, just gotta move forward.” It sounds like the distance wasn’t the only factor in the split, though. “People have differences, different wants and needs. At the end of the day she’s a young girl. I can’t be focused on wife-ing somebody that young.” “I’m young too. I’m doin’ my thing.” “I just got to step forward and be a man and be the best Chris Brown I can be, instead of worrying about whoever else is going to be in my side pocket,” he said. Chris also Tweeted this morning, “Imma just focus on my music.” The die was cast last week when Rihanna fan kiss photos emerged and he said his birthday plans included “trying to see as many girls as possible.” Now we know the rumors were true. It’s over. But for how long? We know how up and down Chris and Rihanna are, so it wouldn’t be surprising if, down the road, they’ll be able to rekindle the flame and prioritize it. For now, though, it looks like shawty doin’ her own thing.
What do Patrick Schwarzenegger and Justin Bieber have in common? They can probably pick up more girls than your average 19-year-olds. They’ve both threatened to ” beat the f–k ” out of someone this year! Arnold’s son got kicked out of a club on Saturday and threatened to “beat the f–k out of the DJ,” as seen in a TMZ video of him standing on the street. “I’m gonna go beat the f**k out of the DJ,” he told a group of pals while outside the club. “Everyone around me wants to beat the f**k out of the DJ.” “I’ll beat the f**k out of him,” he continues. “He goes and kicks everybody out of his table, losing money for the club, losing money for the owner.” It’s not clear why he was kicked out … or why he was allowed in at age 19. Then again, maybe the answers to those two questions could be related. Check out the scene with Patrick Schwarzengger outside the club … Patrick Schwarzenegger Kicked Out of Club

Some things in life are a mystery. Why does anyone care about Kim Kardashian ? Did Hayden Panettiere get a boob job ? Why would the University of York Baroque Orchestra and Chamber Choir play a version of Justin Bieber’s “Beauty and the Beat?” We’ll likely never know the answers to any of such pressing life questions. But at least you can enjoy the most random Justin Bieber cover of all-time below: Orchestra Performs Justin Bieber
