Something Tattered, Something Blue

2004_01_britneydaily.jpg

Coming soon to the pages of Teen People: Bridal fashion for those who want more attention from friends and family. The Daily News reports what Britney was wearing and to Gothamist, the outfit proves it was a spur of the moment, if not totally drunken decision: "With skin-tight tattered blue jeans cut down to here and a belly shirt cut up to there, Spears was in the zone as she made her way down the aisle with her frat-boy hubby. Her famous blond locks were covered with a white baseball cap and the chapel handed her a frilly lace garter, which she shimmied up the left leg of her jeans."

Other fun facts:
– Britney and ex hubby Jason Allen Alexander planned their marriage while watching Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
– Afterwards, Britney's mother and manager made her realize why marriage would be a problem career wise; soon, the lawyers were called.
– Alexander once hit a guy who bought his then girlfriend a drink; now that's chivalry.

The DN also looks at other bad and brief celebrity marriages. Of course the best one is the 10 day marriage between producer Robert Evans (The Kid Stays in the Picture) and Catherine Oxenberg after they knew each other for 4 days; Oxenberg left reportedly the 30 years her senior producer "when he tried to consummate their marriage."

it's the outfit that convinced you it was spur of the moment? VEGAS didn't send that message home? or how about the annulment?! i wish she would crawl under a rock and leave the rest of us to REAL news or at least gossip about talented celebrities.

OH.my.god. She should be awarded "train wreck of the year" and we're only 6 days into it!

Nice to see you've used the front page of a Scottish newspaper! Or should I be upset that her influence / pr machine spreads so far??

Evans reports that she left him when she discovered his addiction to painkillers.

That's nothing. Rudolf Valentino had a marriage that lasted six hours.
