Jack White and Karen Elson Tie Knot in Canoe 

A posting on the White Stripes website announces that Jack White and Karen Elson were married Wednesday in Brazil:

Karen Elson and Jack White were married yesterday on the confluence of three rivers - the Rio Negro, the Solimones, and the Amazon - in the Amazon basin in the city of Manaus, Brazil. They were married by a traditional Shaman priest on a canoe at the exact point where the three rivers meet. The bride and groom were accompanied by a small party of friends. The best man was Ian Montone. Meg White was the maid of honor. The ceremony was immediately followed by a blessing by a priest at a Catholic Cathedral called Igreja Matric in the historical city of Manaus. This was the first marriage for both newlyweds.


That last line is perplexing since Jack White was once married to Meg White. He may have tried to pass her off as his sister later, but then there's the marriage license and divorce certificate that say otherwise. Also, you have to find the timing a bit interesting since White's ex Renee Zellweger just married Kenny Chesney. Come to think of it, there's a lot going on in all of their past dating lives, so to keep score:
  • Zellweger also dated Jim Carrey and Damien Rice,
  • White also dated Marcie Bolen from the Von Bondies,
  • Elson also dated James Iha from the Smashing Pumpkins and Aurelio Valle from Calla (one of our Artists to Watch!).
