celebrity engagements december 2011

The month of December is a time for joy, happiness, generosity and love, and this December did not disappoint. Tons of celebrities chose this month to get engaged! Here’s a list of the celebrity engagements of December 2011.

1. Britney Spears & Jason Trawick

Britney is rocking a $92,000 engagement ring after saying yes to Jason Trawick’s proposal. The couple has a 10-year age gap, but that doesn’t seem to be slowing them down. Britney told People magazine earlier this month that she’s eager to get married and have another baby! This will be the 30-year-old singer’s third marriage.

2. Rosie O’Donnell & Michelle Rounds

After only a few months of knowing each other, Rosie O’Donnell and Michelle Rounds made plans to tie the knot! Rosie made the big announcement on her show at the beginning of December.

3. Steven Tyler & Erin Brady

Apparently, Steven Tyler’s family is less than thrilled about this engagement, but none the less, the current American Idol judge and former Aerosmith singer popped the question to his long-term girlfriend Erin Brady.

4. John Legend & Chrissy Teigen

Hip-hop star John Legend and his model girlfriend Chrissy Teigen have been dating for about four years and are finally taking things to the next level! Apparently, the happy couple got engaged during the holiday festivities.

5. Danny Gokey & Leyicet Peralta

Danny, known for competing on American Idol, has found love again. The singer shared his story on the show three years ago. His former wife, Sophia, passed away just a month before he auditioned after complications in surgery.

6. Justin Timberlake & Jessica Biel

It’s still up in the air whether or not this couple is in fact engaged, but the rumors are definitely there! After several years of dating, Justin and Jessica split earlier this year and got back together with the understanding that there would be an engagement in the near future. Has the big moment arrived?

7. Matthew McConaughey & Camila Alves

Matthew McConaughey dropped to one knee, proposing to model Camila Alves on Christmas Day. He took his celebration to Twitter by posting a picture of them kissing with the caption, “just asked camila to marry me, merry Christmas.”

8. Kristin Cavallari & Jay Cutler

This relationship is nothing short of the drama we all saw on the MTV series Laguna Beach where Kristin got her big start. She called off her engagement with the Chicago Bears quarterback earlier this year, but got re-engaged this month. Hopefully this time the engagement sticks!

Museum of Celebrity Leftovers Showcases Stars? Leftover Food

It’s no secret that the general public is fascinated with items once owned by celebrities, be it iconic memorabilia, a dazzling wedding ring, or even a cavity-ridden molar. However, a café in England has taken celebrity obsession to a new level by collecting and displaying the food celebrity diners have left behind.

Each time a celeb dines at The Old Boatstore, a quaint seaside café in Cornwall, owners Michael and Francesca Bennett scrape up the leftovers and display them in a special case on the wall. Prince Charles, Pete Doherty, and Michael Winner are just a few British celebrities who have contributed to the Museum of Celebrity Leftovers, and though the cake crumbs and sandwich crusts are in various states of decay tourists from the globe to continue to flock to the restaurant to see the motley collection.

"We're just amazed that it captured so many people's imagination,” owner Michael Bennett told BBC News. "Thanks to the internet the museum has an international following.”

English celebrities Hugh Denning, Jan Leeming, and John Woodvine have also left morsels behind at The Old Boatstore, with Mission Impossible III actor Eddie Marsan adding the last, and possibly final, leftovers. The Bennetts have put the café for auction (though the museum is not included) and aren’t sure what will become of the food collection once the restaurant changes hands. For his part, Michael Bennett hopes to find a new home for The Museum of Celebrity Leftovers so people can continue to enjoy the unique celebrity exhibit.

“It’s a piece of social history,” he said.

Taylor Swift Lands Role of Eponine in Les Miserables Movie

taylor swift eponine les miserables

The young country star worth millions is making her move onto the big screen! Taylor Swift has been offered the part of Eponine in the upcoming musical-gone-movie, Les Miserables.

This comes as a major shock to most people since Swift hasn’t exactly had a major breakthrough in acting. She played a ditsy character in the movie Valentine’s Day, had a guest appearance on CSI and did some voice acting in the upcoming Dr. Suess film The Lorax. Other stars said to have auditioned for the role include Scarlett Johansson, Lea Michele and Evan Rachel Wood.

Les Miserables has a stellar cast lined up. The male lead of Jean Valjean will be played by Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe as Inspector Javert and Eddie Redmayne as Marius. Helena Bonham Carter and Sacha Baron Cohen will play Mr. and Mrs. Thernardier, Swift’s parents, and Anne Hathaway stars as Fantine. Amanda Seyfried has been offered the role of Cosette, Fantine’s daughter, which is especially strange since there’s only a 3-year age difference between Hathaway and Seyfried!
