Country singer Kenny Chesny? Huh? First it was Jack White of the White Stripes, then recently I heard it was Damien Rice (which made me angry because how dare she take my man) and now out of the blue it’s a completely different singer and a country singer at that which seems out of her usual music genre. Supposedly they’ve been dating since January. Is this a Julia Roberts/Lyle Lovett moment? Does Renee stalk singers? Does anyone even care? Am I only posting this because I am relieved it wasn’t Damien she married? [sub]The answer to the last is yes.[/sub] ---

A friend of mine is totally certain that Renée Zellweger is a lesbian. I can’t wait till she hears about this. Of course, given the quirks of the human mind, my friend will probably just say “D’oh! I never knew that Kenny Chesney was a woman!” ---

I’m confused. Last I heard (and this wasn’t very long ago) she was happily dating Damien Rice. ---

They will have some very squinty-eyed children. If they last that long, of course - I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt. Maybe those crazy kids are really in love. ---

> [@Robot Arm](#): > > “You had me at ‘howdy’.” That made me laugh out loud. Regarding her scrunchy-faceness (yes, it is a word), I wonder if the problem is that she doesn’t wear her contacts all the time. In the Chicago behind-the-scenes, she’s shown in dance practice wearing some black-framed glasses (that made her look adorable), and sometimes she’s not so scrunchy-faced (still a word), making me think she has her contacts in. ---

Regarding [RZ’s squinty eyes](http://www.allstarz.org/~zell/facts.htm) : > [@](#): > > Her Norwegian mother, Kjellfrid Irene Andreassen, is of sami origin (a minority originating mainly from the northern parts of the Scandinavian peninsula often referred to as Lapland). Zellweger herself has many typical sami features, such as the strong cheekbones and the squinty eyes. .So at least part of it is hereditary. ---

Didn’t find her particularly attractive in the Bridget Jones movies. Definitely don’t find her usual (award-show, dress-up) self attractive. Did find her strangely pretty damn hot in Me, Myself, and Irene. That’s about all I’ve seen her in so I can’t speak to other parts.
