Tying the knot and winning the gold

After hearing my husband knew about Hilary Duff possibly being engaged before I knew...well, then I realized the gossip queen was falling WAY behind in her Entertainment segment of Bring Me Up. Why didn't y'all let me know of my failings!?

So here we have a great bit for you to chew on for Sunday morning breakfast.

I consider this some fantastic celebrity news! Straight from Beijing:
After winning gold medal number seven of these Olympics by one hundreth of a second on Saturday, record setting gold number eight seemed to come a little easier for Michael Phelps Sunday morning in Beijing. Joined by his teammates Jason Lezak, Brendan Hansen and Aaron Peirsol, the USA claimed gold in the 4x100 medley relay setting a world record as they did it. The headline of course belongs to Michael Phelps and his 8 gold medals, surpassing the record set by Mark Spitz at the 1972 Munich Olympics.

As expected, Ellen and Portia de Rossi were married Saturday afternoon. Their rep said,"Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi were married tonight in an intimate ceremony at their home in Los Angeles."

John Mayer reveals the reasons behind his split with Jennifer Aniston.

"People have different chemistry, they have different lives," John tells the mag. "It's not about years, it's about going out with somebody, being truthful on the way in, being truthful in the middle and being truthful on the way out. You're either a cheater or you break up and I'm not the first, I'm the second. And that's it. There's no lying, there's no bullsh!t."

He's only been a daddy for a little over a month now, but Matthew McConaughey already has words of wisdom for his baby son Levi, born to he and girlfriend Camila Alves last month.

In an interview with CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta, the 'Fool's Gold' star says he's going to give Levi the same advice his own father gave him: "Don't lie and don't say 'I can't.'"

Meanwhile, the buff actor goes on to say that his son will only eat organic food and will not be allowed goodies like gum, soda or candy!
