Happy Nuptuals: Jack White Marriage Shocker!
First Renee married a country singer now Jack White one ups her and marries flamed haired Karen Elson. Speaking of Renee, we attended a screening of Ron Howard's Cinderella Man a few days ago. Russell Crowe and Ron Howard seems to be the favorite for an Oscar nod and win while Zelleweger's performance caused us to grimace every time she appeared on the screen. Maybe Renee should stop the Cold Mountain method acting. It's boring. Maybe the above tidbit wasn't as shocking as these pictures of Tom Cruise.
