Sweet Swirly Matrimony-dom: Robin Thicke Says He “Doesn’t Know If He’d Be Alive” Without Paula Patton!

Awwwwww! Via USMagazine Through “Thicke” and thin! In a joint interview with Prestige Hong Kong Magazine, Robin Thicke and his wife of eight years, Paula Patton, talk about the ups and downs of their careers and relationship, and how they support each other. “I don’t know if I would still be alive in some ways if it wasn’t for Paula,” Thicke, 36, tells the magazine. “She’s been my rock, my muse, my inspiration and I love her. The whole way.” “I’ve been there for his down moments and he’s been there for mine,” adds actress Patton, 37. “Life is full of peaks and valleys. Robin has always been a great person to remind me to celebrate now. Even when it looks like I’ve got a role but don’t know for sure, he’s like, ‘Let’s celebrate!’” The former teenage love birds also talked about being BFF’s and raising their song together When the “Blurred Lines” singer and Baggage Claim star have free time, they choose to spend it by enjoying simple things together. “Talking to each other. We watch movies. Just sit and contemplate — we have a house with a bit of a view. Listening to music. Talking about what’s going on in our lives,” Patton shares. “We’re best friends. We laugh a lot. But that’s our down time. We do the things you’re supposed to do, like work out — blah, blah, blah, boring, boring. We love to travel together and travel with our child. Get out of the house. Because our house is a mad house. We don’t have normal jobs. So it’s always a work house. Robin makes music at home and my job, when I’m not on set, always brings people into our home.” Says Robin about their 3-year-old son Julian: “My son is my good-luck charm; he’s made me not think about myself all day long,” he says. “All of a sudden he shows up with his beautiful smile and perfect energy and makes me go, ‘Ah, forget my little problems.’ He’s an amazing child.” Sure, maybe Paula gets a lil slizzed every now-and-then (emphasis on EVERY), but these two seem to be the happiest married couple in the world. With divorces at an all-time high, can’t be mad at that… Image via WENN

Some Old Head Swirl: Tina Turner Speaks On Her Newlywed Matrimony-dom

Tina looks good. Tina Turner Speaks On Marriage Tina still getting it in at 73. We want to sip from her fountain of youth. Those legs though…. According to US Magazine What’s love got to do with it? Everything! After 27 years together, Tina Turner and music producer Erwin Bach tied the knot in a private ceremony in Switzerland — and now, Turner says, life is perfect. Speaking with Hello! magazine about her recent nuptials, the 73-year-old “Proud Mary” singer gushes that she has finally found nirvana. “It’s that happiness that people talk about, when you wish for nothing, when you can finally take a deep breath and say, ‘Everything is good,’” she says. “It’s a wonderful place to be.” As was her wedding, it seems. Per Hello!, Turner and her longtime love were married in a lavish ceremony at their home on the banks of Lake Zurich, with celebrity guests including Oprah Winfrey and Bryan Adams. The women in attendance were reportedly asked to wear white, while the men donned black tie. Turner, meanwhile, broke from tradition and rocked a stunning black silk tulle and lime-green taffeta gown with Swarovski crystal embellishment. She first spotted the Giorgio Armani frock at a runway show in Beijing, she revealed to Hello!, and she knew immediately she wanted to get it and save it for a special occasion. “I thought, ‘I gotta have that, even if I never wear it,’” the superstar shares. “Then I thought, ‘I know, that will be my wedding dress.’” This is the second marriage for Turner, who was previously wed to musician Ike Turner from 1962 to 1976. Ike, who died from a cocaine overdose in 2007, often physically abused his wife; she documented their turbulent union in the memoir I, Tina. (The couple’s romance was also the inspiration for the 1993 biopic What’s Love Got to Do With It, starring Angela Bassett and Laurence Fishburne.) Turner, an eight-time Grammy winner, became a Swiss citizen earlier this year. She has two kids: 55-year-old Craig, with musician Raymond Hill, and 52-year-old Ronald, with Ike. We wish Tina and her new hubby the best. Continue reading

Hi, my name is Madison, I’m the one on the right, and I met Justin in Miami on January 27th 2013. I had gotten surprised with front row tickets to his concert but I never knew that I was going to meet him too! On the day of the concert when I was on my way there, my mom’s friend (who I went with) told me that I was going to meet Justin. At that moment I was speechless because I have always wanted to meet him and I knew that it would never happen.. but It did. He has been my inspiration to never give up and never listen to the haters. When I was in line with my friend to meet him, I had started getting so emotional because I still couldn’t believe I was to close to him. After the line started moving I had walked into the room with my friend to take the picture with him. Justin had grabbed my waist and pulled me close to him to take the picture. Before we left I said that I loved him and he said, “I love you too.”  When we left the room I was shaking because I couldn’t believe what just happened. I was starstruck at the moment. After that amazing night I had learned to, ”Never say never” because it’s actually true. Thank you so much for the amazing experience Justin, I will always be by your side. I hope that each and every one of you get to have an experience like I did one day! Never stop believing! -Madison (@mvdii) Read more here: Hi, my name is Madison, I’m the one on the right, and I…

My name is Anna and I’m a 15 year old belieber from…

My name is Anna and I’m a 15 year old belieber from Sweden. I am so happy that I finally get to write my own Bieber experience after waiting for 4 years. On April 22, 2013 two of my biggest dreams came true. I met my idol, my inspiration, my everything, I met Justin Drew Bieber and I went to his concert. Lets go about a year back when I first found out that Justin Bieber was coming to Sweden. I wanted a ticket to his concert but they sold out so fast that I didn’t get one. In December 2012 I found meet & greet tickets on sale and asked my dad if he could buy one for me but he said they were way too expensive. On January 15 I saw that there was only one meet & greet ticket left so I called my dad and begged him to buy it for me, and he did! I was so happy, I just sat in my bed shaking, crying and tried to understand that I was going to meet Justin Drew Bieber. When I was able to stand up I told mom and she was so happy for me. On Sunday April 21 my mom and I went to Stockholm (it takes about 5 hours with train) and when we arrived, we stayed at the hotel right next to the Ericsson Globe. I saw Justin’s tour bus. I barley slept that night because I was so excited about meeting Justin and going to his concert. The next day we went to the Bellingham Gate which is the VIP entrance. A security guard told us to go to another entrance. After almost an hour of waiting, we got inside and got our wristbands and tickets. We sat down to wait for Justin to come and after a while, Kenny came to say hi to us . I was so nervous, excited, and happy! Finally it was my turn. When I saw Justin I thought I was going to faint. There he was right in front of me and he was so beautiful. His hair, his eyes, his lips, his face, his body, his scent, his clothes, everything was perfect. I walked into the little “room” where Justin was and I put my jacket on the floor. Justin reached out his arm and gently pulled me towards him. Justin held his arm around me and I held mine around him. That was absolutely the best moment in my whole life. I was standing right next to Justin Bieber who is the reason I believe, the reason I smile and the reason I live. Justin is my everything and I love him over everyone and everything. Words can’t describe my love and appreciation for him. They took the picture of us and before I could realize anything, the security guard had pulled me out of the room. It happened so fast and I was shocked. I wanted to hug Justin and tell him that I love him but there wasn’t enough time and I was too chocked up to say anything. I started crying because I was so happy that I had met Justin but at the same time I was so sad that it was over. I got my merchandise and went into the arena and down to the Golden Circle. They played some of Michael Jackson’s songs while everyone was waiting for the concert to begin. The countdown began and those were the 10 longest minutes of my life. I saw Justin with his wings and I almost passed out. He was so beautiful and seeing him flying in on his wings was magical. Seeing Justin Bieber perform live was amazing! His beautiful, prefect voice makes my heart melt. Justin was so amazing and I couldn’t be more proud of him! Beliebers, keep believing and never say never. One day your dream of meeting Justin will come true! -Anna See the article here: My name is Anna and I’m a 15 year old belieber from…
