Country singer and American Idol winner Carrie Underwood 27, married her hockey player boyfriend Mike Fisher 30, who plays for the Ottawa Senators in Georgia on Saturday. The ceremony was held at The Ritz-Carlton, Reynolds Plantation in Greensboro, Georgia. Security at the wedding was very tight and among some of the 250 guests there were some big names there which included Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson, and Paula Abdul. Carrie wore Chantilly lace dress created for her by Monique Lhuillier. The couple reportedly left Sunday morning to go on a romantic honeymoon in a secret location. The couple plan to live in Nashville and in Peterborough, Ontario. Congrats!

Brett Michaels returned to the stage Friday night in Biloxi, MS after just a month ago he was hospitalized for suffering from a brain hemorrhage. He performed in front of 1,400 fans at the Hard Rock Casino and seemed to be in good health. Michaels strutted across the stage with a slight limp but was still able to give an energetic performance. Michaels said to the crowd before performing “Every Rose Has Its Thorn,” “I can’t say this is true yet, cause I don’t know. Next year they asked me to possibly be the judge on ‘American Idol.’” So it looks like Brett is in the running to replace Simon Cowell on American Idol though Fox is not commenting on any speculation regarding Simon’s replacement.

The shy guy who worked at the paint store won over America and became the ninth season winner of American Idol. At the beginning of the season DeWyze was real fidgety and reserved and when he sang he almost seemed slightly embarassed at the end of his performances. He beat out Crystal Bowersox who was favored to win for most of the season. Critics are saying that Crystal far out sang Lee throughout the competition and on Tuesday night. The ninth season also seemed a bit like a season finale because it was judge Simon Cowell’s last night on the show. He is moving on to become an executive producer and will appear on a new singing competition, “The X Factor,” also on Fox. Congrats to Lee DeWyze! I am sure that Crystal Bowersox will go on to become very successful as well.
