Kelly Clarkson Weds Brandon Blackstock

-
 "Our whole life is a celebration,"


Congratulations are in order for Kelly Clarkson and husband Brandon Blackstock. 

The couple tied the knot at Blackberry Farm in Walland, Tennessee, on Sunday, October 20. Blackberry Farms is a 4,200-acre luxury hotel and resort situated in the Great Smoky Mountains. 

Kelly Clarkson’s Wedding Dress:

Kelly selected a Temperley Bridal dress by designer Alice Temperley for her wedding finished off with a Maria Elena headpiece designed by "American Idol" season one alum Jim Verraros. She carried a bouquet of sunflowers and Bluebonnets, the official flower of her home state of Texas. The lace gown featured long sleeves with small buttons and a v-neckline that allowed the singer to flaunt her assets in a tasteful way. An empire waist gave way to an A-line silhouette, while the frock featured a small train. From the long sleeves to the way the lace skimmed over her silhouette, the gown was a great choice for a festive fall wedding.
The ensemble had a very romantic, ethereal vibe which was supported in the styling, as Kelly’s hair was loosely pulled back to keep the focus on her frock. 
31-year-old Clarkson who is currently getting her pilot's
license flew them in for the ceremony and Blackstock, 36, was going to fly them back out. His children, Savannah and Seth, from his previous marriage attended their intimate weekend ceremony. 

Despite eloping, Kelly didn't leave her fans hanging as she tweeted her wedding pictures on Twitter.  "I'm officially Mrs. Blackstock :) We got married yesterday at Blackberry Farms in TN, the most beautiful place ever!" the blushing bride tweeted one photo which shows her new husband lovingly kissing her temple as they posed against the backdrop of a beautiful wooden bridge. 

Before the nuptials, Clarkson threw an adult tea party in Austin to celebrate the end of her singlehood. She and her guests donned retro flapper numbers and enjoyed cocktails served in tiny tea pots labeled "moonshine," "whiskey," and "scotch." Some NSFW gift bags were spotted as well.

Clarkson and Blackstock, a talent manager, first met in 2006 during rehearsals for the American Country Music Awards, but they didn't start dating until six years later. "This guy walks by, making everybody laugh. I said, 'I'm gonna end up with him. I know it,' " she recalled.

Brandon is the stepson of Reba McEntire who married Clarkson's manager Narvel Blackstock. "Brandon is my manager's son. I've known him for six years but he was married. Then, suddenly, there he was at the Super Bowl and he was single," she once said.

The couple got engaged in December 2012. He proposed with a yellow canary diamond ring that he designed with Johnathon Arndt. They obtained marriage license on October 15 in Sumner County, Tennessee, signing it under their full names, Kelly Brielle Clarkson and Narvel Brandon Blackstock.

They initially planned a big "earthy" wedding that included 200 guests, sunflowers and yellow roses in the backyard of the Nashville home that they share with his kids. But due to their hectic schedules, they later scrapped it for a more low-key wedding.

The Difference between A-list, B-list, C-list and D-list Actors & Celebrities

“A-list”  actors are exceptionally successful, their notoriety extends beyond the silver screen, and their name guarantees a box office hit. Some “A-list” actors include: Will Smith, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Angelina Jolie, Meryl Streep, and Johnny Depp. The “A-list” actors are usually made up of male actors as with more high earning positions. “B-list”  actors are usually television actors or less successful movie stars. Some “B-list” actors include: Nicholas Cage, Katherine Heigl, David Morse, Samantha Morton, and Pierce Brosnan. “B-list” actors usually never headline a film by themselves; this means the supporting actors are usually fairly notable too. “C-list”  actor is a character actor that’s known by face and not by name. They are usually still good actors, but they receive less notoriety than an A or B-list actor. “D-list”  actors are the lowest on the celebrity hierarchy; they appear on celebrity game shows and reality television. Celebrity  refers to popular

Actor, producer and director Tyler Perry at his corporate "Dream Building." According to Perry's website, "Tyler Perry Studios will be a film and entertainment production facility like no other, with a world-class ability to support the artists who create new worlds." Perry — the most successful African American filmmaker in history and the ruler of an entertainment empire of hit movies, TV series and plays — maneuvers the vehicle from a parking lot near the entrance of the historic Ft. McPherson Army base onto a paved road. Suddenly, he veers off into a massive, rolling sea of lush greenery. He passes various sights on the vast, grassy landscape; a white yacht resting on a platform, surrounded on three sides by sheets of greenscreen; large ponds with frolicking geese; a trailer park; a cluster of well-kept brick buildings. No one is around. The only sound is the roar of Perry’s engine.  “For me, this is pure paradise,” Perry says, surveying the view

Etiquette: Unwritten Rules of Movie Theaters You're Probably Breaking

View in Browser:   https://mypublicist.blogspot.com/2017/09/etiquette-unwritten-rules-of-movie.html People have been going to the movies for more than 100 years, but in a world increasingly dominated by the streaming pleasures of Netflix, Amazon, HBO, and more, a trek to the local multiplex has become both more sacred (if you're going to spend the big bucks, you want the experience to be perfect ) and less important. With all the conveniences of streaming, it's easy to forget that when you're in a theater watching a movie, you're  in a theater watching a movie . With other people. Not in your house. In. Public. Temporarily forgetting the real world is fine and all... until you realize you're sitting dead center in the middle of a movie theater surrounded by 99 people who each laid down $50 -- popcorn and soda ain't cheap! -- to take in the evening's entertainment. You can do better. You can avoid  a fistfight over the end credits. How? The Th
