Duran Duran Nick Rhodes The 80's Weddings

NICK RHODES WAS THE ULTIMATE 80’S PRETTY BOY AT HIS WEDDING

What could be more uplifting on a Monday than a trip back to the indulgent 80’s? We came upon this photo of Duran Duran’s Nick Rhodes’ 1984 wedding at the observational Dangerous Minds.net site and it says EVERYTHING about music style in the 80’s. Nick, 22, married Idaho department store heiress Julie Anne Friedman, 25, in a costly over the top ceremony in London. When Andy Warhol met the couple (he had a crush on Rhodes) he remarked that Nick “wore twice as much makeup as Julie” and was “half as tall.” In spite of the decadent era, the marriage lasted 8 years and produced a daughter. (We met Nick at an MTV event in the 80’s and he was as adorable as he was high on something.)

Beyoncé Jay Z Kanye West Kim Kardashian Weddings

JAY-Z SAYS “NO THANKS” TO BEING KANYE WEST’S BEST MAN AT WEDDING

94920PCN_West17cut

They’ve been buddies for years, but Jay-Z wants nothing to do with Kanye West’s over-the-top wedding to Kim Kardashian. Kanye asked Jay to be his best man, but his friend said he would only do it if he and Beyonce and their baby were NOT filmed. Since the E channel is paying for the wedding, they cannot make such a promise. Jay-Z and Beyonce have no desire to appear on the Kardashian reality show. Their OWN wedding was SO private that it was weeks before people even knew it happened! Kim will be disappointed if Beyonce doesn’t show up.

Jessica Simpson Joe Simpson Parents Wedding Woes

HER PARENTS ARE JESSICA SIMPSON’S BIGGEST WEDDING PROBLEM

112292PCN_Simpson01

It has been suggested that Jessica Simpson warned her father Joe NOT to bring any of his young male companions to her wedding. (Photos surfaced of Joe and a young man on the beach in Miami looking chummy.) The truth is, Joe wouldn’t THINK of doing that and Jessica knows it. But a huge problem remains. Jessica’s mother Tina cannot STAND to be in the same room with her former husband, and Jessica is clearly torn. She’s always been close to her dad AND mother and she wants them both at her wedding. What’s a girl to do?

Remember? Sly and the Family Stone Weddings

REMEMBER SLY STONE AND HIS SOLID GOLD WEDDING?

Sly-Stone--Kathy-Silvacut

Back in 1974, Sly (of Sly and The Family Stone) got MARRIED to his girlfriend Kathy Silva at a bizarre ceremony in New York and WE WERE THERE! To be honest we don’t remember a lot of the details. but we do recall that plenty of New York celebrities were there like Andy Warhol. It was a big deal with lots of publicity and paparazzi. The ceremony took place in Madison Square Garden, of all places, and the reception was at the Waldorf hotel Starlight Roof. Sly and Kathy were dressed in gold by Halston and all guests were urged to wear gold also. The brainy staff at Dangerous Minds dug up all kinds of information about the forgotten event and it certainly brought back memories. The video shows a bit of the ceremony plus snippets of reports from a young Geraldo Rivera! In those days, Sly kept his cocaine in pocket size film canisters – the kind you brought to the drugstore to be developed. He figured police wouldn’t open them and risk ruining the photos.

Baby Jay Cutler Kristin Cavallari Wedding Woes

KRISTIN CAVALLARI THINKS SHE’S GETTING MARRIED THIS SUMMER

Kristin Cavallari, 26, of “The Hills” still has some clothing lines but she pretty much gave up her acting career when she moved to Chicago to live with Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler. She gave birth to their cute little boy Camden eight months ago but still no wedding. After a few postponements, we doubted it would ever happen, but Kristin says the wedding is definitely this summer, but NOT on their son’s birthday August 8.

Ken Todd Lisa Vanderpump The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Weddings

LISA VANDERPUMP AS A 21 YEAR OLD BLUSHING BRIDE

Lisa Vanderpump and her husband Ken Todd renewed their vows in a fancy ceremony on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and they flashed this photo from their original wedding. We thought you’d like a closer look at it. Lisa was 21 when they wed in 1982 and Ken was 16 years older. They got married only six months after meeting, and it’s lasted a long time! Especially for a Beverly Hills housewife!

Crystal Harris Hugh Hefner Money Playboy Wedding Woes Weddings

ENGAGED AGAIN: HUGH HEFNER’S FRIENDS ARE WORRIED

Hugh Hefner’s friends were appalled when he allowed his 26 year old runaway bride Crystal Harris move back into the Playboy mansion earlier this year. They felt she had really humiliated him by jilting him before their highly publicized June 2011 wedding, and he was behaving like a fool. Since he announced plans to reschedule the wedding for New Year’s Eve, they want Hef, 86, to have his head examined! Hefner’s pals feel that after Crystal dumped Hugh, she wised up to the fact that her young boyfriends wouldn’t spoil her like Hef did, and ultimately opted for the money. We’re hoping there were a lot of legal documents drawn up to make sure Crystal doesn’t take advantage of her aging husband.

Charlene Wittstock Children Illegitimate Prince Albert of Monaco Weddings Womanizer

PRINCE ALBERT IS NOT AS SMART AS HE LOOKS

Grace Kelly’s son Prince Albert of Monaco officially ended his extended playboy bachelorhood when he recently announced his upcoming marriage to pro swimmer Charlene Wittstock. It got us wondering – will his two illegitimate children be invited to be part of the wedding? His daughter Jazmin Grimaldi is 18, living in Palm Springs, and she’s an honor student about to enter Fordham University. Albert’s son Alexandre Coste is 6, and he and his mother moved from Togo, West Africa, to Paris. Albert spends millions supporting both mothers and children in style. AND the kids will be heirs to Albert’s 1 billion dollar personal fortune. The great mystery is – why isn’t a PRINCE smart enough to use birth control? Celebrities like George Clooney and John Mayer have been womanizing for YEARS without accidental pregnancies! It certainly brings Albert’s common sense into question.
