This engagement is fairly new, but I definitely smell trouble. This Golden Globe nominated/winner B list movie actress has been entertaining a fairly steady stream of men at her fiance's home. Her fiance is a B list television actor on a very hit show. He must know this is going on as our actress doesn't hide what she has been doing and with whom but our actor doesn't seem to care.
Emily Blunt & John Krasinski

«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 506 of 506If Life Style magazine is a reputable magazine we have to conclude the story is correct.
Here it is folks. Looks like it's on the line of another US weekly.
http://www.lifeandstylemag.com/
I don't think they would publish it without some degree of certainty.
I'm with crazy766
Congratulations?
I sincerely wish that it works out for both their sakes.
Sigh... It may not be July 10th afterall.
http://www.musicrooms.net/showbiz/10117-Emily-Blunt-Keen-Keep-Wedding-Quiet.html
I'm really tiring of this whole thing.
I still remain skeptical. Looking at the Life & Style website, it looks the same as In Touch, Us Weekly, and Star mags you see at the pharmacy or supermarket checkout counter. I don't see any difference among them that would make me think one is a more legitament news source.
Let's face it. They're all trying to sell magazines and increase "hits" on their websites. When John and Emily said they were going to have a June wedding, their fans believed it. June came and went with no nuptials. Now there's a heightened sense of anticipation from the fans, and these mags are feeding off of that.
"Announcing" an exact wedding date just seems to fly in the face of what these two have said in the past. John has always seemed a very guarded, private person. Emily has stated in past interviews that she regrets being as open with the press about her relationship with Buble'.
If the big day really did occur, it's always been my impression that the two would simply and quietly head off to the wedding destination and get hitched. No fanfare, no press, no announcements. They'd simply show up at some Hollywood function, married and wearing the rings as proof. Done deal.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Please excuse the double post. Thank you for that link, RM. Now, please excuse my mini-rant:
If this is true, these two seriously need to get over themselves! John and Emily, this just in. You're not fucking Liz Taylor and Richard Burton!
Are you kidding me? I call bullshit. I find it hysterical and super convinient that they suddenl have a day after those pictures were leaked last week. It just seems all too... handy?
I really hope this never goes ahead. Say the two date thins is true, who the fuck do they think they are? Angelina and Brad, because let me tell you kids, you ain't them. Just get married, say nothing, don't play up ti the Hollywood shit.
Another thing, I have seen that July 10th on various websites today. Whenever a piece of information is followed by, "a source claims," I think it's a load of shit!
Blurg!- This is in response to the question you raised in your post. Interesting observation and one I'd not thought of. I think you're right to find it a bit odd that she would be shopping by herself on the day of her bachelorette party. You would think she might spend the day out with friends and sisters. Good point!
Since the July 10 date is coming from a tabloid, I almost feel like that means they're definitely NOT getting married on the 10th and maybe are getting married this weekend or something? It seems like they're so keen to keep it under wraps, if it is happening it most certainly won't be whatever is circulating in the gossip columns.
I wonder if they're getting married this weekend?There were pics of them at LAX. Either they're just leaving for the long weekend (Boston for the 4th could be pretty awesome) or they're sneaking off to get married. To me, it would be draining to go across the country for the weekend, get back home, and then get married a few days later.
If they are getting married this weekend, I suspect we'll see Amy Adams heading out too. Isn't it customary for the guests at the bachelorette party to attend the wedding as well.
http://johnkrasinski.net/coppermine/thumbnails.php?album=629
Emily looks pretty pleased. John not so much.
Blimey, doesn't she look like a self-righteous so and so, he however looks gloomy.
Just by looking at their luggage, I think they're going away for the holiday weekend. Obviously I can't be certain, it's just a gut feeling I have - please be right!
I just wish he could find himself a nice non famous girl from Boston, someone sweet and down to earth (who doesn't cheat ;))
John, grow a pair and leave her. There are nice girls out there, I found me one:D
Good point Eugenie. That is very little luggage especially if it is supposed to have everything they would need for the wedding and honeymoon.
Sorry for the double post. An article said they were heading for London, one of the many rumored locations for their wedding. We'll see what happens I guess...
I don't think they're heading to London or for a wedding. Just like Eugenie said, they don't have much luggage on them. And didn't John once say the wedding would be in the US? (if it were to go ahead lol)
This is a somewhat off-topic but, um...what happened to Anne Hathaway? Emily's best friend? Where is she? I thought she would be the maid of honor. Did they have a falling out?
Ignore my last comment about the People magazine link. I was wrong. John and Emily have their arms around each other.
I need to quit watching those two. I'm starting to see things.
Were they new pics?
I think RM was refering to the picture in People Magazine of John and Emily with their arms around each other when they went out for Mexican a couple of weeks ago, so no, not a new picture. I thought she needed help standing up in those pictures from the way he was gripping her arm ;)
RM, Sadly I don't think yu ARE seeing things when it comes to those two. Their body language is so fucked up.
I also don't think the London thing is true.
I think you're right FishNChips. He said in an interview that they'd probably have it in the US. That really isn't enough luggage for much more than a holiday weekend unless they were doing something ultra-crazy like shipping things to whatever location to avoid suspicion but that would be overkill and just plain ridiculous.
RM- I don't know where Anne Hathaway is. Like you said, maybe they had a falling out? I wonder if some of the reports of her being Emily's maid of honor were just to spice up a totally made up story. Same with the mention of Amy Adams. Reporters just throwing in the two celebrities Emily is supposed to be friends with.
They might be getting married today. This French article says they were on their way to London.
http://www.purepeople.com/article/emily-blunt-son-bagage-prefere-pour-voyager-son-futur-mari_a59208/1
Pardon my double post. Here's an article in English about them travelling to London.
http://www.posh24.com/emily_blunt/emily_blunt_travels_in_comfort
Let's brace ourselves. They are getting married very, very soon.
Here are two links one for civil weddings and one for marrying in the Church of England.
For the church of England, Wedding banns are required. (Announcing the upcoming wedding to the church 3 Sundays in a row prior to the wedding). However there are loopholes. (Read the second link).
http://www.weddingguideuk.com/articles/legal/englandwales.asp
http://www.weddingguideuk.com/articles/legal/englandwales.asp#ChurchOfEngland
First, I just want to say that I love that this comment thread has been going on for seven months! I don't post, but I try to read the new additions every day.
Something I haven't seen mentioned -- do you think they're getting married in a Catholic church? I think JK comes from a pretty devout Catholic family, and I know how important it is for Catholics to get married inside of the church. Do we know of EB's religious background, if any? I would think all of her alleged "activities" aren't very becoming of a good Catholic girl (or are, depending on how you look at it ;-P), but I would think that getting married in the church would be important to him, if he's as devout as his upbringing reportedly was. Then again, a made-for-PR marriage wouldn't be sanctioned by the Catholic church, either.
At this point, I'm just in it for the entertainment value. I say I hope they are gettting married soon -- brings them one step closer to the divorce, right?
TaterTot, you are my new best friend. Don't lurk any longer. We need people like you speaking up and saying it as it is :)
I couldn't agree more btw. If they DO tie the not, let's start a divorce pool ;)
Tater Tot- Nice to see you here! I was hoping you'd show up at some point. I loved your original post after this BI was revealed. I share in many of your opinions of these two ( even the one concerning John, uh, well, you know. ;) ).
Good question about churches. I would guess Emily is probably Church of England, Episcopal here in the States, and we know historically, there's no love lost between the Catholic Church and Church of England.
If they were to get married in a Catholic Church, a pre-Cana marriage counseling session is required, I believe.
Please do join in, Tater Tot. Pull up a chair!
So Jenna Fischer got married on Saturday. Apparently, her globe-trotting onscreen husband was too busy to make it, which I think is a shame. I don't think that JK/JF need to be best friends, but he owes a lot of his success to her, as a lot of people believe that the Jim/Pam pairing was crucial to The Office's early success. I guess her wedding was a super-private affair (Rainn Wilson was there and Tweeted about it, which is how it got leaked), so there probably weren't enough names or photographers around for Ms. Blunt to waste her time. I mean, it's not like they are staying up all night finishing the seating chart or making M&M favors. I'm sure there are enough people being paid to plan every detail that they basically just have to show up.
I just hope that at least some Office people were invited to the grande affair -- unless there wasn't enough room at the table between George Clooney and Meryl Streep.
I wouldn't look too much into the fact that they look like they're traveling light. They could have checked bags before they were photographed or they're handlers might have done it for them. You can see there is someone wheeling what looks like Emily's suitcase in front of here in a few of the pics.
That being said, this whole saga is exhausting. And if Emily really was throwing out different dates to confuse the media, that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Who does she think they are?
Forgive this rant but, I must rant nonetheless. Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski are supposed to be friends. But, let's say they are not. They are co-workers right? So, how does it look the two of them scheduling weddings a week apart from each other? Doesn't that put strain on the guests that are invited? Sure, they are loaded and have the cash to purchase two gifts in one month, but what about the time element? Especially if John and Emily are planning to marry in the UK. And then there's simply the plain fact that you're upstaging someone. I mean even Andy Bernard who has the social graces of an ant chided Jim and Pam for getting engaged shortly after he and Angela got engaged. Sure, it was fiction, but, in real life we know not to do that. Then to top it off they don't go to the wedding but, they travel to the UK on Jenna's wedding day?!!! WTHell is going on?
Either John and Emily were not invited to the wedding or they decided not to go. Either way, it looks bad.
I often thought John had a crush on Jenna. Then when he started dating Emily I figured I was wrong. I'm starting to believe differently now. It's too complicated to go into but, when people are hellbent on marrying someone who is obviously so wrong for them and they do things that are so out of character, like not attend their co-star's wedding but, travel to the UK on their wedding day instead. IMO there's some deep rooted hurt/hatred going on there.
Got most of it out of my system.
Looks like I found our mysterious couple. While they aren't mentioned in Enty's blog, check out the George Clooney fireworks vs. boat on Lake Cuomo pics in today's Random Photos part 3.
Clooney and his girlfriend are in the middle of the pic, looking up at the fireworks. Now, direct your eyes down from them. Recognize a certain TV actor's profile and long legs hanging over the side of the boat? Look near his knees and you'll see a certain brunette looking skyward.
This was taken on July fourth. I don't know if they were invited or not. If they were, they obviously chose not to attend. Gotta hang with those A-listers if you want to get anywhere in the biz, I guess.
Sorry for the double post. I forgot to say that you'll probably need to enlarge the image on your computer screens to get a better look. Those pics are small! ;)
I had this whole huge rant typed, then accidentally deleted it. Oh, well.
I feel the same way, RM. I used to be a medium-level JK fan (I'm a really big Office fan), but now I think he's pretty douche-tastic. And not just because of the uber-tight clothing or the Vespa. I mean, hanging out with Clooney in Italy on your co-star's wedding day? Fail. Even if JK/JF are not best friends, but mere co-workers, it would have made for a little bit of cute press had he been there. I hope that no photo agency/website identifies them on Clooney's boat. Or that the escaped firecracker singed half of EB's hair off a week before her big day.
It wouldn't surprise me if they get married at Clooney's villa instead of in the UK or L.A. like we all suspect.
I guess this could be worse -- his PR people could have set him up with Anne Hathaway instead of EB.
I go to bed early, wake up to pee and THIS is what I wake up to? Seriously, could he be more od a holy douchebag?
Even IF he and Jenna weren't bff, I am sure she'd have invited him. She invited Rainn, so I bet she invited everyone (out of politness) and woah, if I was Jenna, I'd be so upset that my friend decided to hang out with his A-list pals on a boat in Italy instead of enjoying my special day with me. I would have thought differently if he'd been in Boston and enjoying the holiday with his family, but no.
I still don't think they're married yet. Although I did "panic" and think that this could be their honeymoon. But I just think it was them enjoying a douchey break!
He has slowly been leabing that nice Boston guy behind - now he is hardly there and that's sad. He's turned in to a right arse kissing, Italy going, Clooney loving pile of smugtastic doucheness. Or, in other words.... Mr. Blunt ;)
How long until they file for divorce *that's if they really are tying the knot... GAG GAG GAG*
*Holds a funueral for the sweet old John.*
Shame that firecracker didn't land better ;)
Thanks, crazy766. I must admit I wasn't expecting to find them in that pic. I was trying to spot Clooney when I happened to recognize John's distinctive profile, and there they were!
I'm on board with everything you previous posters have said. Please enter my vote under the "Douche Move" column. I'm sorry, but if I had the financial resources and enough breaks in my schedule, Italy could have waited. I believe attending a friend and co-worker's wedding should have taken precedent. As Tater Tot said, "fail".
Wow, total douche move.
I guess it's nice to get validation in the days leading up to their wedding that these two absolutely deserve each other.
RM- This is in response to your "rant" post made earlier. I don't know if you're a regular viewer of The Office or not, but since you brought up "Andy Bernard" in your post, I'll assume that you are.
In Season 2, there was an episode where "Jim Halpert" conveniently arranged a vacation that would take him out of town during "Pam's" wedding date. Is this a similar scenario to your comments relating to John/Jenna?
Thanks for all the support everyone. I feel "better" now. I think we all needed to get that out of our system. We are seeing John Krasinski morph into as someone so nicely put it, "Mr. John Blunt".
Yes Pretzel! This does remind me of the vacation Jim scheduled in lieu of going to Pam's wedding. Odd how life imitates art some times.
Jenna Fischer is what made him the "star" he is now. If it wasn't for her and The Office, there probably would be no 4th of July fireworks with George Clooney. The two of them together on the small screen just "click" They both owe each other for that IMO.
An Italian article confirms that John and Emily were on George Clooney's boat on July 4th.
http://www.gossipnews.it/news/clooneycanalis_un_anno_damore_news.html?ID=1278582457
il quattro luglio, giorno dell'indipendenza americana means, July 4, day of American independence.
FYI from a longtime lurker:
Yesterday there were several retweets of an "OMG John Krasinski is right next to me" message. The original posting is from an LA based girl who protects her tweets so we can't tell when the tweet was posted and in what context or, like all tweets, check its accuracy.
I wasn't sure if I should be excited by some glimmer of hope that John came to his senses and miraculously left Emily in Europe or, after the douchetastic fireworks party, think that they are actually a perfect pair together.
I know the leaving Emily in Europe and returning to Emily under the paparazzi radar is unlikely but yo never know.
athenastamos OMG! What was he doing? Drinking? Driving? -RT @katybranson: Oh My GODDFDDd John fucking KRASINSKI I dring next to me! I'm going to die!!

Here's a link to an article about the 4th of July fireworks on George Clooney's boat. It has a picture. Is that brunette in the front with the long legs Emily Blunt? The caption says Emily Blunt but, seriously, if it is her she looks like a dude. Maybe it's the way she's wearing her hair or something.
http://www.nonmidire.it/articolo/elisabetta-canalis-e-george-clooney-un-anno-d-amore-pirotecnico/8613/
Pardon my double post again! I looked at the picture on CDAN and compared it to the one in the article. I see the person I thought was Emily is actually John K. In the pic in the Italian article she is leaning back. The one on CDAN you can see her clearly.
My bad. (goes and looks for glasses)
Ok guys. Today is supposedly the big day. Like RM said, let's brace ourselves.
Consider me "braced", crazy766. ;)
Does anyone even have a clue as to where they are? Still in Europe? Back in the States?
So, JK may be a douche but it sounds like most of the cast did not attend either (I saw a post on another site that only Angela, Ed and Rainn attended). Not sure what to make of that except that I am very surprised and I expect a tabloid article of how Jenna was hurt that only 3 cast members attended. I guess I don't really understand these off-screen relationships - the cast always talk about being "a family", yet Steve C has announced that this is his last year on the show in the press, which is something I would have expected to be done to the cast and crew first.
RM, I agree with your observations about John/Jim and Jenna/Pam. Not only do they have incredible chemistry as characters but in real life as well - just look at all the Youtube clips of them together from when they used to do appearances together or even the EW videos from last year when they were promoting the wedding episode.
As for life imitating art, I get the reference to Jim booking a trip to Australia to avoid Pam's wedding but the one I think is more appropriate is the one where Pam picks the $400 iPod over Jim's $20 teapot because "It's an iPod." I don't think I am star struck but he was with effing George Clooney at his villa on Lake Como in Italy. Mindy said on Craig Ferguson she was spending the 4th with her parents. No comparison in my book and I can see going to Italy over the wedding, although I am still curious if the details of the wedding were not available until late or something like that.
Take from this what you will. Doesn't look like a very nice place to have a wedding, but maybe the boat was transporting people to a secluded location. I'm actually relieved that they're finally f**king getting married. Like someone said upthread, it's not like these two are Liz Taylor and Richard Burton (I doubt they'll get back together after they get divorced). They'll probably get a little mention on People.com, then totally overshadowed by Carrie Underwood's wedding. Serves them right -- just because you hang out with George Clooney, doesn't mean you're as big of a celebrity as he is. Supposedly David Schwimmer is on this boat, as well. Now that's a guy that you want to hang around with.

One second while I puke up my roasted peanuts and Pimms from this evening…
I go to work today and just as I was clocking in, I received this lovely *sarcasm* text from my friend saying they’d gone and done it in Italy, on a freaking boat with George Clooney and David Schwimmer. I’m sick of those two, who the fuck do they think they are? They behave like A listers, when they’re clearly NOT. They cannot complain about ANY press “invading” their wedding when they go and get married on a lake in Italy – with George fucking Clooney as one of your guests. The paparazzi are going to find you.
I’m glad they’re married now, now we can begin the countdown to the divorce. I give them 12-24 months tops.
I wish Emily would go back to how she used to be. She used to be so much sweeter, and John seems to have gotten exceedingly cockier over the last year. I’d love for him to find a sweet, NON famous girl (and no, I do not want or think it could be me, I’d much rather Paul Rudd or Anna Richardson thank you very much… ;))
Thanks for ruining my awesome day at work John and Emily. Looking forward to when you get your heads out of your arse ;)
According to an OK magazine exclusive. They just got married in Italy.
Yep *gags* I am not amused. Give it a year or so...
Rep confirms.
“We can confirm that John and Emily were married on Saturday in a private ceremony,” John’s rep told Access Hollywood in a statement on Saturday.
I've been following this thread ever since the blind item was revealed back in January, and I totally agree with the rest of the posters here. I honestly thought John would come to his senses before he tied the knot. Apparently, he's so enamoured with his own fame that he decided to go through with it after all. This is a bad idea, even though I guess the inevitable divorce will only make him even more famous.
I think up until last year he seemed like a nice and down-to-earth kind of guy. Not anymore. He seems more interested in his own fame than ever before, and judging by their appearances together, it's clear that Emily has only made it ten times worse. Indeed, it seems like this change started when he began dating her, so it's fairly obvious what happened.
I wonder if any of his castmates attended the ceremony, and if they didn't, I think that will say it all.
Hello coat17. Glad you came out of "lurkdom". :)
I scanned the pics of the yacht deck several times, but did not see any of John's Office castmates. I also didn't see his parents or either of his brothers, though I'm sure they were there (I would hope, anyway). For what that is worth.
I'm a little bummed that John went through with it. Seriously, the wedding was the epitome of "Hollywood" pr crap. Clooney's villa! Yuck! Like many have posted before, it seems like John changed a lot after he began dating Emily. I think a lot of people, myself included, hoped he would settle down with a nice, normal Boston girl and not some Hollywood "It" girl. Maybe his nice-guy persona is gone forever or perhaps he'll have to have his heart stomped on to realize that there may be something to marrying a normal girl that treats people nicely over a super hot girl (with major bitch face) that couldn't care less about commitment, fidelity, or who she might hurt in the process of getting what she wants.
crazy766, your comment says it all.
I honestly don't think these two will make it. Maybe only through the School of Hard Knocks will he learn anything, crazy766.
If you thought Clooney's villa was over the top, google "Villa d'Este". That's where the ceremony took place. Gorgeous spot, just an odd choice for a couple who claim to "shun" the Hollywood lifestyle.
You guys said it all brilliantly. I'm shocked he went through with it to be honest, but like a few of you have already said, maybe he needs to have his heart stomped on by a tramp to realise what a God awful mistake he's made.
Also, the place he got married? I could totlally see CLOONEY getting married there, but not him. The fact they thought they needed that much secrecy bugs the crap out of me. Jenna had this beautiful wedding in Malibu, was it expensive? I'm sure it was. But hers also seemed like a wedding of two normal people, people who just happen to have a little more money than you and I.
My friend sent me these. They remind me of those very staged beach and bicycle pictures we had a few months back.

Where is John? Emily seems like the life of the party which is nice. It's her wedding. She should be having fun, but why do I picture John hiding away somewhere puking and/or crying? Just kidding.... mostly.
This whole situation is so bizarre. Shouldn't a wedding be about the couple and their family and friends? These two seem to have turned the wedding into a showbiz event, and they were apparently more interested in inviting as many Hollywood A-listers as possible instead of having a real and heartfelt wedding. Even though I can understand why someone would want to get married in Italy, I don't understand why they would turn it into such a cheesy affair. Oh, never mind. It was a showbiz event starring George Clooney and Meryl Streep. Isn't that what a wedding is all about?
Other Hollywood celebrities have managed to get married in a proper fashion without turning it into such a spectacle, so when not even his castmates showed up, that's a clear sign that he has changed, and she's the reason why. This is so ridiculous. After all, Jenna got married in a private fashion with her friends and colleagues in attendance, and she didn't invite Michael Douglas (her former co-star) to increase the Hollywood star factor either.
Are these the first pics of them?
http://www.popsugar.com/Pictures-George-Clooney-Lake-Como-After-Hosting-John-Krasinski-Emily-Blunts-Wedding-9093843
I "bless them and release them". I hope they are happy.
It has been a pleasure everyone.
Pics from the wedding party. Pretty awesome guest list.
We've got George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Matt Damon, Jimmy Kimmel, Stanley Tucci, David Schwimmer, Stephen Merchant, Billy Crudup...
http://community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/48794488.html#cutid1
Best wishes to the happy couple I guess.
Ahh, RM. Let's not say "goodbye", let's say "until we meet again". ;)
Just got around to looking at the wedding pics last night (thanks for the links, Eugenie). I was a bit floored by the celebs there. Sure didn't appear to be a low-key, intimate affair to me.
What I find curious is how you essentially take a Hollywood red carpet list of celebs and drop them into the middle of your wedding, without polarizing your guests? If you're simply a family member or close friend, how do you mingle while the celebs hold court? "Oh, I think I'll freshen my drink and go chat with Meryl about my insurance business".
I don't see how it could have been very comfortable for the non-celeb guests. Just my two cents.
Sorry for the double post. I was hoping the "strangeness" wouldn't end with the wedding, and these two did not disappoint. Look who's playing "hide the ring" now.

So I get the JK hate because he went through with the wedding. For a guy who seems to have natural chemistry with just about everyone, the 2 of them just seem uncomfortable around each other. Even if one didn't believe the blind item, they just don't seem right and that continues even with the latest pictures. And maybe I just have not seen enough pics but I have only seen 1 wedding picture of them together. I also understand the hate for the wedding venue and guest list but will give them a pass for that. Did it seem over-the-top and pretentious? Sure, but lots of otherwise regular folks have over-the-top and pretentious weddings. I also think it actually is a positive quality that folks like Clooney and Meryl Streep still associate with them after their projects together have completed.
Two things I don't get are why the hate over how JK has changed? I am not sure I see that. They actually seemed to have kept a low profile other than maybe the occasional staged pictures. Wasn't the last time JK did an interview last Christmas? I also don't get the comparisons to Jenna Fischer's wedding. I am not sure I have seen any details of her wedding other than it was small, in Malibu and only Ed, Angela and Rainn from the cast were there. Who knows how over the top it was? Maybe Michael Douglas was invited and either didn't or did come? This was her 2nd wedding and I give her credit because she came through her divorce surprisingly gossip-free.
So, this is what I don't get. This was a quote from US magazine: '"It was an official ceremony. They are husband and wife," adds the source.' Why would someone say that - just because they were married in Italy? It seems like an odd thing to say.
Don't leave us RM, this party ain't over till the fat lady tells John to open his fucking eyes :)
The pictures from the airport on Tuesday puzzle the crap out of me. First, they'd spent the last 10 days in Italy, it just seems odd to me to then go somewhere else, but secondly, he's hiding the ring, what the fuck is with those two. Frst it was her, and now it's him. No one really gives a shit about your ring John. I love ya, but this is silly. Hiding it ust makes a bigger specticle out of the whole situation IMHO. I don't know, they just seem to like to enjoy all the "drama" that surrounds them They look SO uncomfortable together, I can honestly say I've not seen a picture of him since he's been with her where he looks at ease (and I mean pictures of them together...)
I still don't think this is the real deal. The fact that their wedding resembled a fucking award show guest also rubs me up the wrong way.
Open your eyes damnit.
Vodka- I agree with you. The comment about it being an "official ceremony" and that they are "man and wife" does seem an odd statement to release.
Perhaps it was because the wedding took place in Italy. Seems the only other reason to make that statement might be to dispell any assumptions that it wasn't a legit ceremony.
Don't U.S. citizens have to be married in the U.S. for it be considered legal? Not saying that they did't do that before or after, but I thought it was something that had to be done. I just remember when the whole Spencer/Heidi fake Mexico wedding happened, there was this whole thing about U.S. citizens getting married outside of the country and it's kind of not really a legal marriage but more of a ceremonial marriage.
Okay, John, we've all seen men's wedding bands before. What's with the hand in the pocket? It's not like the paps are clamoring to get a look at your five-carat sparkler or something. Geesh. Give it a rest, you two. You're already at the peak of your fame by marrying each other (and the guests you invited to witness it) than for anything you've done in your respective careers!
You raise a very good question, Tater Tot, and one I'd not really thought about. I've never known anyone who had their wedding on foreign soil, so I can't speak from experience. I did find this government site that provides the basic rules for such a thing:
http://travel.state.gov/law/info/marriage/marriage_640.html
From what I read there, the time constraints in meeting some of the requirements would mean that these two would have known and prepared for their Italian wedding well in advance. There appears to be quite a lot of "hurdles" to pass for a wedding to be considered legal.
Just catching up here. So included in the guest list at this "intimate" wedding with closest friends and family are Streep, Clooney, Kimmel, Tucci and Damon? Oh, and Billy Crudup. There's a winner, what with leaving his 7-month pregnant girlfriend. Schwimmer is less bothersome because I know he and John have been friends for quite awhile. Anyway, I can buy that they are friends with all these A-listers, yes. It is easy to form friendships with people with whom you work. And no, we don't know who was invited from The Office cast -- just that Ed Helms was the only one shown in the pics. However, what bothers me is the fact that John always plays the "oh-so-humble" guy in interviews - fawning over Streep and Clooney. Or saying he thought he was hired to be Clooney's PA. The fact that they invited these folks to be a part of their small wedding in Italy paints a completely different picture.
The fact is, these two live an extremely charmed life, globetrotting, property on both coasts, etc. John's "humble little guy from the Boston suburbs who wants a girl in a cardigan" schtick doesn't fly anymore. He really knows how to turn the charm on, and it worked on me for quite awhile, but the last year or so, it has begun to ring extremely false.
Anyone seen those new pictures of John and Emily at the movies this past weekend? Yhey're holding hands and I have never in all my life seen anything look as unnatural as those two. They just seem to be acting as if they're in love, and not actually IN love. I look at pictures of Megan Fox and her fella, or Carrie Underwood and her new husband, and they all seem to radiate love, yet these two do not.
I go away for a few weeks and you all fall off the face ofthe planet "COME BACK, COME BACK TO ME" *bad Keira Knightley impression.*
Anyhoo, I had to post because I just saw the new candids of John and Emily in NYC. Didn't he have a charity event he was supposed to be taking part in yesterday in LA? Some spelling bee type thing? Kinda disgusting if he cancelled just so that he could go see his woman for the weekend,who is filming in another country. I get they'll "miss each other," and all that shit, but dude, it's for charity. And one he seemed really invested in during the Away We Go promotion.
I also find it rather interesting that ever since Emily has been out of the country, there have been no candids of John on his own. I know he's working, but I still think it's rather funny. I still say she tips the press off. I know not everyone will agree, it's just what I think. Either that, or the press really don't give a shit about John as an actor, and only care what he's doing as Mr. Blunt.
Pretzel Logic, I had a pretzel the other day and thought of you. Don't be scared by this LOL
Welcome back, Eugenie! We seem to be the only ones on this thread anymore. Well us and the chirping crickets. ;)
Me scared? Nah! The only thing that scares me is what a douche a certain Mr. Krasinski seems to be morphing into.
He was indeed one of the celeb participants in a spelling bee to benefit the programs of 826LA. They help children ages 6 to 18 improve their creative and expository writing skills.
Anyhow, it was held yesterday. They promoted with him as one of the celeb team leaders and received donations via "sponsors" for the individual teams. Admission tickets were also sold to view the event. One can assume that fans of John or The Office would come.
Oddly though, the pics you mentioned surfaced yesterday of John in NYC with his "ball and chain". Major fail, John. Major fail.
I'm still here!!! I've been posting a lot less because John just seems like such a douche now. I agree with P. John needs a new pr schtick because the nice normal guy doesn't seem as applicable now.
One reason the thread kept my interest was because I had a picture of John being this oh-so-romantic-cuckold that didn't want to break it off because he fell for Emily. A really nice guy that's staying with a not so nice woman because love is blind or some crazy crap like that.
Now, his nice guy persona doesn't seem all that authentic. A wedding at Clooney's villa? Give me a break! And bailing on this charity event is super lame! They were advertising that he would be there until very recently. Like Pretzel said, there were probably a good number of disappointed John fans.
It seems like John and Emily try to project an image of being super down to earth people that dodge the Hollywood scene but to me, that just doesn't seem to be the case.
Phew, thought I was talking to an empty room. I'm glad you're both still here *tackles you both*
I have to agree. I had this image of John. The guy who was hanging on to a girl he'd fallen for, hoping she'd change etc, but they seem to be just as bad as each other now.
John always seemed so down to earth, but how much of that was just an act? Or did he change once he'd met a certain Miss Emily? I'd heard he'd become slightly jerky after iflming with Clooney, but from what I've heard, he became more of an arsewipe after he got involved with that British beast *meow?* I can't imagine he'd have missed a charity event like this a few years back. Remember how many charity events he went to before?
I'm fed up of the two of them. Yte I can't stop hoping and praying that John will open his eyes and see what a mistake this is. He may seem happy, but I honestly don't think he is. I can't explain it.
Okay, off to feed the horses and all that exciting early morning stuff.
Keep this thread alive.
Hi everyone, I lurk here from time to time. My advise is that we drop this subject for awhile. Otherwise we'll drive ourselves bonkers. How about if we agree to meet here once a month unless something mind boggling happens.
:)
Aw you're borinnnnng. I wanted to come on and discuss the emmys :p
I want to know if there were any awkward moments with Rashida Jones at the AMC party
Did they get interviewed on the Emmy Red Carpet? Are there any youtube videos?
I don't think they did any together. John did a few solo but apparently was one of the last to arrive so he didn't do a ton of press.
Hi gang! So crazy- They were at the same Emmy after-party as Rashida? Wow! Ripe for awkward moments indeed! ;)
Crazy's correct, RM. They both arrived quite late, minutes before the show was to start, much like he did at the SAG awards earlier this year. John did a very quick interview on the podium while Blunt remained below on the red carpet, then down the carpet for some quick photo poses and into the theatre. I've read that a lot of the photographers were pissed at their quick exit.
John really made no comment on the wedding at all. So, you have this A list-studded wedding on Lake Como, Italy, with all the accompanying pics and press details, but you show up at your first big Hollywood public event and act all private and coy? These two are a trip!
That was one of the things that really bugged me about the Emmys, the fact that he showed up so late – in my opinion this was his way of avoiding the press as much as possible. He only did small interviews with E and TV Guide, and during those, Emily remained at the bottom of the podium. Another thing that irked me was the way Emily posed for pictures on the red carpet. This was NOT an award show for her. She could have, and SHOULD have walked right on by that press line.
Thanks for the updates everyone. I'm sorry, I'm losing interest in these two. That's a good point about Emily taking pictures on the red carpet when she wasn't up for an award. I saw she was included in a couple of best dressed lists. So, it once again is for publicity.
I clearly remember reading stories and seeing videos of John and Emily on the red carpet at the Emmys, and the press being none to happy with how quick they walked it. I'll have a look tonight. I'm sure I got sent one of the videos through google alerts.
Wanna hear something hilarious? Emily was voted worst dressed at The Emmys in a few magazines over here in the UK. It seems you guys in the US care for her much more than we do here.
I'm fed up of these two. I was watching some footage of John from season 2 last night and I just hope that that man is still in there somewhere. Come out come out wherever you are!!
OH who else wanted did not find John's joke about Emily appearing on The Office funny? I was like, DO NOT joke about that!
Okay, off to feed my horses and then it's time to look for that video.
Well, there was an article about Emily not wearing her wedding ring. It's because she was taking a yoga class though.
Much ado about nothing. :) It's just funny how it always comes back to that. lol!
RM- I actually saw those pictures when they came out. I thought about posting but then the ring was back on for the red carpet so I figured no big deal. She might have wanted it cleaned because there are still a lot of 'look at Emily's ring' stories and photos.
Like RM, I'm just kind of bored with them. Hopefully they're happy. I read somewhere that John was playing basketball with Clooney before the Emmys. Coupled with the fact that they were one of the last to arrive, barely walked the carpet, and had a celebrity extravaganza of a wedding, I think John and Emily are hoping to get into Clooney's close circle and be an A-list power couple. I think John needs to re-think his nice guy from Boston schtick.
Well, hello! Stopped by to see if there were any new posts and...voila!
Crazy, I quite agree with you on the subject of how these two appear to be angling to become members of Clooney's "inner circle". With the help of the press, they really have been positioned to appear as a Hollywood A-list power couple.
I think the key word here is "appear". Maybe I'm mistaken, but don't you actually have to have boxoffice clout and at least a major award for your acting? These two have neither.
Yes, she received a Golden Globe for "Gideon's Daughter" what, five years ago? My understanding is that the Hollywood Foreign Press and their awards are seen by insiders as dubious, at best. They've had their fair share of nominating scandals. Remember Pia Zadora as Best Actress? ;)
Blunt hasn't had a successful boxoffice film since "The Devil Wears Prada". Krasinski is largely still just a TV actor with a few forays into films, and only "It's Complicated" made any money. I would think that people in the biz would see through the hype and realise that "the Emperor has no clothes". ;)
What I don't get is what does Clooney get out of all of this and why such interest (it seems), in these two?
I went away again, and hoped they'd have been some action in here while I was gone. Shame those pictures were of Emily going to yoga, and youow, not wearing her ring because they realised they're not working. Soon I hope!
Just reading (I think it was RM) a comment on here about John & Emily hoping to be "let in" to Clooney's close A list circle - I had to laugh. As much as I love John, just no. Neither of them deserve to be classified as A listers just yet, hell, htey have a long way to go. Emily IMO has done nothing but box office bombs (yes, I even consider TYV to be a bomb, it did make back close to what it cost to make) and John might as well be new to movies, he's not done anything oscar worthy (although I do love away we go.)
So, yeah, point is, Clooney must just think they're sweet (wouldn't it be great if it came out that John and George were bum buddies? Oh I would CRACK UP!)
2 1/2 months in, this has to end somtime, right?
That's a very good point, Crazy766. Makes me wonder why they'd even bother to be married if most of their marriage is passing each other in an airport terminal off to the next acting gig. I suppose it would be easy to make a marriage "work" when you're rarely with the other.
That actually makes a lot of sense crazy766, the amount of time they've actually "been" together, they've not really BEEN together. They seem to spend a hell of a lot of this relationship hanging out via iChat ;) I'm still doubtful about them as a couple to be honest. He's working on The Office right now, then he's working on the Whale movie until December. Emily is currently abroad fiming some movie about fish in the desert (?) and there are talks about her starring in a nother movie starting next year. Throw in the movies she has coming up, she'll be away a lot promoting them.
"Hey, Em. We should really hang out soon, go walk our dog or something. People will talk..." ;)
How many of you would honestly be shocked to find out that John was really gay, and this whole thing was somehow fake or set up?
Honestly? I'd not be too shocked. Just sayin'
They've been flying under the radar a lot lately, probably because they've both been filming a lot but I found this People blurb interesting.
http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20433660,00.html
Thanks for the tidbit 766. IDK if its anything considering the players and the city. LA probably never sleeps just like NYC and so to arrive somewhere at midnight is nothing. Still a little strange that it got a mention no? Two married people arriving at midnight at a fancy hotel's restaurant drinking wine. Hmmmm...
Don't know if anybody checks in here anymore but...
It looks like we got a shout-out from Enty today in the form of today's blind item.
Well, I think 500 comments to a blind reveal could be considered a personal message board! Glad to see we're still making news! And just in time for the Gulliver's Travels PR blitz. Hmmmm. Man, these two have some brilliant reps! I bet we see an stream of lovey dovey couple photos over the next few weeks.
Hi Tater Tot! Congrats on number 500. I knew we'd hit it eventually. We're like the Ever-Ready Bunny. ;)
As far as a "stream of lovey dovey couple photos" in the upcoming weeks, I'd be willing to bet the house on that.
I can't say I'm particularly surprised by yesterday's blind item. It seems to me it was only a matter of time before she would slip up and get caught again. Hopefully, he will come to his senses in the near future.
What? I missed the blind!!! Which day was it?
It's here: http://www.crazydaysandnights.net/2010/12/todays-blind-items_13.html
Well, here's the first batch of lovey dovey couple pics, Tater Tot. That didn't take very long, did it?

Sigh...
