Mark Ronson Weds in South of France


Superstar music producer Mark Ronson wed model-actress Josephine de la Baume in Aix de Provence, France on Saturday.

PHOTOS: Most exotic star destination weddings ever

Photos at the Daily Mail reveal that the bride and groom were equally stylish for the big day: Ronson, 35, looked sharp in a candy-striped suit and Ray-Bans, while De la Baume, 26, wore a low-cut, custom-designed Zac Posen wedding gown with cropped veil.

Among the stars in attendance for the two-day affair that took place near the bride's home town: Kate Moss, singerLily Allen, Ronson's designer sister Charlotte Ronson and supermodel Irina Lazareanu.

Ronson began dating De la Baume in 2009; she appeared in his 2010 music video for "The Bike Song." They announced their engagement in February 2011.

Although he lived much of his life in the U.S., the Grammy-winning Ronson -- who worked with the late Amy Winehouse on 2007's Back to Black album -- hails from a prominent British family.

The son of socialite/writer Ann Dexter-Jones and real estate mogul Laurence Ronson, Mark is the eldest of three children, including 33-year-old fashion designer Charlotte and her twin sister, DJ Samantha Ronson. His stepfather is Foreigner guitarist Mick Jones.

How Charlie Sheen Is Celebrating His 46th Birthday


Happy 46th birthday, Charlie Sheen -- he made it through!

It's been a wild year for the former Two and a Half Men star. As his erratic behavior dominated headlines, the actor was officially fired -- and even killed off -- his hit CBS sitcom.

In Oct. 2010, the actor partied it up with porn star Capri Anderson before turning violent and trashing his Plaza Hotel suite. (His ex-wife Denise Richards and their daughters Sam and Lola were in another room down the hall at the time.) He was taken to a hospital for observation and then released.

In January, following an epic bender with porn stars at his mansion, he was rushed to Cedars-Sinai hospital for severe abdominal pains. Later that month, he began a rehab program in his home and CBS announced that Two and a Half Men would go on hiatus.

By February, Sheen was aggressively bashing show creator Chuck Lorre in a series of interviews. "My passion is misinterpreted as anger," he explained to the Today Show. I don't think people are ready for the message I'm delivering and delivering with a sense of violent love."

In March, Sheen was officially fired from Two and a Half Men; the instant Twitter superstar announced his nationwide "Torpedo of Truth" tour the same month.

In May, Ashton Kutcher confirmed that he would be joining the cast of Two and a Half Men. By July, Sheen's comeback TV project was announced: Anger Management, a future sitcom loosely based on the 2003 film starring Jack Nicholson.

As of August, Sheen and ex-wife Brooke Mueller -- who he allegedly threatened with a knife on Christmas Day 2009 -- were "thinking of getting back together." The duo -- who are parents to three-year-old twins Max and Bob -- even jetted off to Mexico to celebrate Mueller's 34th birthday.

On Saturday evening, the star is expected to have a low-key birthday dinner in the San Fernando Valley with Mueller and their boys plus other loved one

Angelina Jolie Exhausts Kids With Elaborate Garden Party


Party 'til you pass out!

As Brad Pitt continued shooting World War Z at Longcross Studios outside London, his love Angelina Jolie found just the thing to keep their six kids happy, entertained...and tuckered out!

On Saturday, Jolie, 36, dazzled her brood -- Maddox, 10, Pax, 7, Zahara, 6, Shiloh, 5, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 3 -- with something special in the garden of their rented home in London's Richmond neighborhood.

PHOTOS: How Viv and Knox have grown up

"All of the kids were in the garden to play and she surprised them with a local group of children's entertainers," a source tells Us Weekly of the sunny day.

"Think juggling, game organising, races, that type of thing."

Jolie's treat was just the trick for Shiloh and the gang, the source adds. "The kids laughed and screamed all day. They were exhausted by the time the troupe left!"

PHOTOS: Angie's style evolution

Sounds like Jolie has made peace with her man Pitt's epic shoot in the UK for the zombie flick -- which had her contemplating making a break for it to the U.S. last month.

"She's not pleased being at home while he's on set," another source told Us earlier this summer. "These are the longest hours he's spent on a set in a while, so it's just her and the kids with not much to do."

Jennifer Lopez Reveals Idol Judges' 'First Fight'


No more Ms. Nice forAmerican Idol judgeJennifer Lopez. The singer admits that she and her cohorts on the panel – Randy Jackson and Steven Tyler – recently had their most combative disagreement since coming together as a threesome on last season's show. "Me and Randy and Steve got into our first fight. I got really, really upset," Lopez, 42, toldRyan Seacrest's KIIS-FM radio show Friday. The blowout – which Seacrest confirmed visibly riled her – bubbled up at a recent audition after a girl with what Lopez felt was an exceptional voice performed for the panel. "She was amazing," Lopez recalls. But Tyler didn't agree – and asked for another song. "I was surprised because I was ready to vote," Lopez said, adding with a laugh, "Sometimes the days get kinda long." When the girl's second song got going, though, Tyler, and then Jackson, quickly nixed the girl from going further in the competition. "I thought I was being Punk'd," Lopez recalls. "[I thought], 'How can we let this girl go?' I was upset. When I believe in something … I knew this girl deserves the chance." All in all, though, Lopez says her second season is "going really great," but does admit: "The kids, we're being really tough on them." Lopez, whose new single Papi (off her latest album Love) is now out, briefly referenced her soon-to-be ex-husband Marc Anthony. "I call everybody 'Papi,' " Lopez said of the inspiration for the song. "I used to call Marc 'Papi.' We wrote the song about loving somebody and celebrating that."

Kate Winslet Escapes House Fire on Vacation


Kate Winslet's tropical vacation turned terrifying early Monday morning when a fire broke out at Richard Branson's Caribbean home where she and her family were staying. The actress, 35, her boyfriend,Louis Dowler, and her children Mia, 10, and Joe, 7, escaped, along with 16 other guests from the eight-bedroom Great House on Necker, Branson's private island in the British Virgin Islands. Branson told the AP that the fire broke out around 4 a.m. during a tropical storm. His son Sam, 25, helped guests evacuate, and the house was "completely destroyed" by the fire. The cause of the inferno is still under investigation, but lightning is likely to blame. Winslet's rep confirmed that the actress was unharmed. Last month, Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo were married on Necker island, saying their "I do's" just steps from the house that burned down Monday.

Natalie Portman Debuts Post-Baby Body While Walking Her Dog


Since giving birth to son Aleph in June,Natalie Portman has been lying low, just as she promised she would. But on Thursday, the Oscar winner – who appears to have lost much of her baby weight – and her dog Whiz stepped out for the first time together since Aleph's arrival. The pair kept their heads down as they walked the New York City streets in near darkness. Portman's newly slim frame stayed hidden under a loose oxford and sweatpants, but the actress added a touch of star power to her casual ensemble with some oversize sunglasses.

'Survivor: South Pacific': New cast and new twists revealed!




Russell Hantz may not be part of the new season of Survivor…but his nephew is. 19-year-old Brandon Hantz is one of 16 new contestants that will be competing for the million dollars when Survivor: South Pacific kicks off Wednesday, Sept. 14 on CBS. Among the players joining him is a former Miss America contestant, a country music singer, a Lingerie Football League player, and a medical marijuana dispensary owner. However, these players will not just have to battle each other. They will also have to take on two returning players, whose names will be revealed later in the week.

In addition to the two returning players, two of the new contestants already have experience on reality television. Country crooner Whitney Duncan placed fifth on the fifth season of Nashville Star, while former Miss Washington Elyse Umemoto appeared on Miss America: Reality Check, TLC’s reality show that accompanied the 2008 Miss America pageant, in which Umemoto was the second runner-up. (She later had to deal with a bit of controversy after photos surfaced of Umemoto partying and making sexually suggestive poses). Other contestants with notable occupations include lingerie football player (and Playboy cover girl) Mikayla Wingle and medical marijuana dispensary owner Jim Rice.

However viewers will no doubt be focused on the contestant with the last name of Hantz. “Unless I’m getting played, which I could be, Brandon is the opposite of Russell,” says host Jeff Probst. “I mean, he appears to be a pretty nice guy — a young kid who’s certainly a little rough around the edges, but well mannered, pretty good thinker. Although for a while his loved one was going to be Russell, and at the last minute he said, ‘You know what, I’ve been thinking about this. That may not be such a good idea to let people know I’m related.’”

SURVIVOR: Get the latest news, photos, and more

Filmed in Samoa (the same location for seasons 19 and 20), Survivor: South Pacific will also feature a few twists to the format. The first involves the hidden immunity idols. “This year with hidden immunity idols, we’re hiding the clue,” explains Probst. “No clue as to where the clue is. Once you find the clue, then you have to find the idol.” And while the Redemption Island twist is back, there will be one major change to it, with the elimination of group duels — meaning each competition will truly be a win-or-go-home situation (as opposed to last season, in which players often simply did not have to come in last to stay alive). “We’re not having multi-person duels,” says Probst. “That was part of the experiment [last season]. We wanted to see how many people we could keep in the game until the end. And that’s why we let more people live out there. But we felt like it’s too many people and now we’ve got half the group still in it at the end. So it will only be a one-on-one situation. Loser’s out, winner stays. Otherwise, we’re playing it the same way.”


Who Wore Temperley Better: Pippa or Lindsay?


For Kim Kardashian’s star-studded nuptials on Saturday, the actress donned a white version of Pippa Middleton’s glamorous green Temperley gown which she wore to her sister’s royal wedding; Temperley’s PR team says they didn’t lend Lohan the gown, but believe she purchased it from their L.A. store for the Saturday wedding in Montecito, Calif.

And while conventional wedding wisdom says that a guest should never wear white, the hue was actually at the bride’s behest, who requested that the 450 guests “please wear black or white.”

The gown, a floor-length satin dress with a crystal brooch, was first created for the Duchess of Cambridge’s little sis. “I was honored that Ms. Pippa Middleton asked me to design her dress for the Royal Wedding evening reception,” the British designer said at the time. “She loved the green color, which looks great on her skin tone. The dress was designed especially for her with a fantastic open back and a full skirt for dancing in.”
