Rocker Jack White, Model Karen Elson Marry
Thu Jun 2, 7:24 PM ET
NEW YORK - Clearly, Jack White isn't brokenhearted over the recent marriage of ex-girlfriend Renee Zellweger. The White Stripes singer wed model Karen Elson on Wednesday in a canoe in the Amazon River in Brazil.
Chloe Walsh, a publicist for White, 29, confirmed Thursday that the singer-guitarist married Elson, a 25-year-old who has modeled for Prada and Banana Republic.
The marriage and details regarding it were first reported by Us Weekly, though the story was not in its latest issue.
The service was conducted by a Shaman priest on a canoe in the Amazon basin. It was followed by a blessing by a Catholic priest at a cathedral in Manaus, Brazil.
Meg White, the drummer for the White Stripes, a blues-rock duo from Detroit, served as maid of honor. Though she and White have claimed to be siblings, court records have suggested they were married for four years before divorcing in 2000.
Whether it's White's first marriage or not, it is the first for Elson.
White and Zellweger met during the filming of the 2003 movie "Cold Mountain" and dated until late 2004. The actress married country music star Kenny Chesney May 9 in a Caribbean island ceremony.
White won a Grammy earlier this year for best country collaboration with country legend Loretta Lynn. He produced her 2004 album, "Van Lear Rose," which also won for best country album.
White's marriage comes as the White Stripes release their fifth full-length, "Get Behind Me Satan," on Tuesday.

The real shame here is that I don't find her that attractive. I don't find Renee that attractive either.
Maybe she has a wonderful personality.

"Jack White was born John Anthony Gillis on 9th July 1975 into a musical, catholic family of 10 children in Detroit. He learned to play the guitar, drums and piano. He played in many bands growing up including The Go, Two Star Tabernacle. At 17 he was offered an apprenticeship at Muldoon Studio-an upholstery shop. During his time at Muldoon Studios, he formed a band with Brian Muldoon, the owner; they produced a 3-track single called The Upholsterers. Jack went on to have his own business, Third Man upholstery at about 21 years of age. Around this time he met Meg White, a bartender, and they married in 1996. On Bastille Day 1997, the story goes that Jack was practicing guitar when he sat Meg behind a drum kit and loved how she played, child-like. They formed the band there and then with Jack playing guitar and singing and Meg on drums, they named themselves The White Stripes (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1226421/bio), after Meg's favorite sweet-peppermints. With Meg's primitive drumming, their basic sound and their uniform appearance of red and white, they made an image of being innocent and child-like, also saying they were siblings."
Jack & Meg's Tesla-coil bit in Jarmusch's Coffee and Cigarettes was the highlightof that film, IMHO.

WV and MI vie for 1st as the states with most forest per square mile...they're actually pretty similar without counting the lakes of MI and the mountainous regions of WV. lots of undeveloped, virgin forest filled with backwoods bible-beaters that feel very strongly about the right to bear arms. i mean, the U.P. is pretty and all (taquamenon falls, lake superior) but there are some pretty sketchy parts.

Rockers have been overachieving for decades. This can't be news to you.
They've never had to punch their weight. They probably don't even read "The Unbearable lightness of Being" or "Love in the Time of Cholera." Those books are about girls, right?

I don't know...Ryan Adams' latest release, Cold Roses, is a great album.
