Howard Stern And Beth Ostrosky Get Married

The king of all media and his super model girlfriend have tied the knot.

Shock jock Howard Stern, 54, and Beth Ostrosky, 36, were married Friday night in a small and private ceremony at Cirque restaurant on East 58th Street in New York City.

According to media reports, there were less then 200 people in attendance.

The guest list included real estate magnet Donald Trump, Barbara Walters, Jimmy Kimmel, Kelly Ripa and her husband Mark Consuelos, Sarah Silverman, Adam Carolla, Billy Joel and wife Katie Lee, Joan Rivers, Stern's radio cohorts Robin Quivers and Artie Lang, Chevy Chase and John Stamos.

Mark Consuelos, who is an ordained minister and real-life husband of television host Kelly Ripa, officiated over the ceremony. Long time friend and actor Chevy Chase gave the toast, and singer Billy Joel performed the song "The Stranger".

The details for the wedding were kept secret for months, and guests were given little information about the time, place and date of the event.

Howard Stern and Beth Ostrosky have been dating for almost eight years, and publicly announced their wedding plans early last year. This is Ostrosky's first marriage, and she now becomes stepmother to Stern's three daughters from a previous marriage. It is Stern's second marriage, after divorcing his first wife Alison in 2000.

Stern can currently be heard with Robin, Artie, Fred and Gary as well as a host of outrageous characters on his SIRIUS radio show.

He is also a consulting producer for the comedy "Howard Stern's Porky's", a remake of the classic 1980's teen sex comedy "Porky's", about a group of high school students who seek revenge on a nightclub owner and his sheriff brother. The film is due sometime in 2009 and is sure to be bad.

O. J. Simpson Las Vegas Trial Verdict - Found Guilty On All Charges - Video

O.J. Simpson was found guilty on Friday (10/03/08) on all twelve counts resulting from the arrest after an altercation in a Las Vegas hotel room last year.

The guilty verdicts included the charges of armed robbery, kidnapping, conspiracy to commit robbery and kidnapping, burglary, robbery, assault and coercion.

The Las Vegas verdict comes almost thirteen years after Mr. Simpson was acquitted in the murders of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ronald Goldman.

O.J. Simpson now faces fifteen years to life in prison for the kidnapping charge, and a minimum of ten years in prison for the other charges. His attorney, Yale Galanter, said Simpson would appeal the verdicts.

Simpson showed little emotion as the guilty verdicts were read and the judge denied him bail. After the reading, O.J. was taken away in handcuffs. Mr. Simpson will return to the courtroom on December 5, 2008 for sentencing.

The charges stemmed from an arrest after O.J. Simpson led five friends on a robbery of a Las Vegas Hotel and Casino guest room and fled with hundreds of items of memorabilia from the sports careers of O.J. Simpson and other athletes.

The use of a weapon adds several years to the minimum sentences for nine of the twelve guilty charges, which also included conspiracy to commit robbery and kidnapping, burglary, robbery, assault and coercion.

The jury of nine women and three men deliberated for only 13 hours, reviewing weeks of testimony and hours of audio recordings of the planning and execution of the crimes.

Convicted with Mr. Simpson was Clarence Stewart, 54, one of the five men who accompanied Mr. Simpson in the raid. Mr. Stewart faces the same sentences.

'Depressed' Angelina Jolie Seen In Public For The First Time In Months

Angelina Jolie was seen in public this week for the first time since media reports claim the actress is suffering from a bad case of postpartum depression.

Jolie was seen at a New York airport with Brad Pitt and their family of six, including the cute two-year-old Shiloh.

Jolie is getting ready for the premiere of her new movie "Changeling" next week, which will be her first public appearance since giving birth to Vivienne and Knox in July.

"Changeling" is directed by Clint Eastwood and stars Jolie and John Malkovich, and is the story of what happens when a mother's prayer for her kidnapped son to return home go answered, though it doesn't take long for her to suspect the boy who comes back is not hers.

Brad Pitt, 44, spent most of last month at the Venice Italy and Toronto Film Festivals promoting his new films "Burn After Reading" and "The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button". Angelina stayed away from the public and media, instead spending her time isolated at the Chateau Miraval in Provence, France.

Last week the family moved their flock to the Palais Parkschloss villa, south of Berlin Germany, while Pitt works on scenes for his latest film "Inglorious Bastards", written and directed by Quentin Tarantino.

Last month, news reports surfaced that Angelina was suffering from depression following the birth of her twins. A report in one magazine claims Angelina feels that Brad has things easy - he had the kids without the pain of birth, and he can just pick up and travel around the world whenever he wants to.

The unmarried partners family now consist of three adopted children and three biological children - Maddox, 7; Vietnamese Pax Thien, 4; Ethiopian Zahara, 3; Shiloh Nouvel, 2; and twins Knox and Vivienne, 10 weeks.

Even with already having six young children, Brad Pitt often speaks of his desire to have a 'sports team' sized family. Easy to say when you have hundreds of millions of dollars, and no womb.

DiCaprio and Crowe In "Body Of Lies" - Review And Movie Trailer

Trust no one. Deceive everyone. That's the motto for "Body Of Lies".

The upcoming thriller is based on Washington Post columnist David Ignatius' 2007 novel about a CIA operative, Roger Ferris (Leonardo DiCaprio), who uncovers the whereabouts of a major terrorist leader suspected of operating in Jordan.

When Ferris devises a plan to penetrate his network, he must first win the support of crafty CIA veteran Ed Hoffman (Russell Crowe), and the friendly, but perhaps suspect, leader of the Jordanian intelligence group.

Although seemingly his allies, Ferris questions how much he can really trust these men without putting the entire operation - and his life - on the line.

When asked about the urgency of tracking down the evil al-Qaeda operative known as Suleiman he says,

''We think Suleiman is coming to America next, maybe with nuclear or biological weapons,'' says Ferris' CIA superior. ''He has all the strings in his hand. And one of these days, he's going to pull them.''

The film was directed by Ridley Scott, and stars Leonardo DiCaprio as Roger Ferris, Russell Crowe as Ed Hoffman, Mark Strong as Hani, and Golshifteh Farahani as Aisha. It is rated R for strong violence including some torture, and for language throughout. The film opens October 10.

The film is certainly full of explosions, lies, bad neighborhoods, terrorists, secrets and disguises. The script is well thought out, and no detail was overlooked - even while trying to create German street scenes on U.S. street film shoots. But the filming took its toll on the actors.

Leonardo DiCaprio was left so shattered after a torture scene that he was ill for days. The actor prepared for the scene in a former Moroccan jail for months, but had no idea the intensity of the shoot would leave him drained and sick. DiCaprio told reporters,

"We did that scene in the middle of some medieval torture tomb. There was some kind of horrific dust in the air. I got sick for two or three days afterward because of the intense energy it took."

The Secret Life Of Bees - Early Review And Movie Trailer

"The Secret Life Of Bees" pairs the unusual combination of Dakota Fanning and Queen Latifah, in a truly deep and emotional film about learning what having a real family is all about.

Set in South Carolina during 1960's, the film tells the story Lily Owens (Dakota Fanning), a 14 year-old girl who is troubled by the memory of her mother's death. To escape her isolated surroundings and difficult relationship with her father, Lily runs away with Rosaleen (Jennifer Hudson), her caretaker and only friend, to a South Carolina town that Lily believes holds the secret to her mother's past.

Taken in by the intelligent and business-minded Boatwright sisters (Queen Latifah, Alicia Keys and Sophie Okonedo), Lily finds comfort in their fascinating world of beekeeping, honey and the Black Madonna. Along the way, she learns what it means to be surrounded by people who love her - as family. But at the same time she gets to see first hand how segregation and racism, that was previously unknown to Lily, effects the lives of those she has learned to love.

It is a gripping movie that shows us adults that sometimes the pureness of a child's love can transcend hatred, racism and adversity, and how prejudices can exist for generations simply out of ignorance.

"The Secret Life Of Bees" is scheduled to open October 17, 2008 and is rated PG-13 for minor violence and adult themes. The film was written and directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood, and based on the novel by Sue Monk Kidd.

Leaked Video: Homer Simpson Tries To Vote For Obama

In an episode of "The Simpsons" scheduled to air November 2, Homer Simpson will vote for Barack Obama. At least he will try.

As Homer enters the voting booth and tries to vote for Obama, the machine changes the vote to McCain, and then proceeds to suck Homer into the voting unit, kill him, and then spit him out.

There are a few good slams in the leaked clip, including one particular jab about how something like this could "only happen in Ohio."
