You Lost Me at "I Do"

Renee Zellweger and Kenny Chesney are having their marriage anulled.

Okay, I’ve got to admit I don’t give much of a rat’s ass about celebrity gossip in general, and even less about those two. But I thought it was worth a post for two reasons:

  1. That damn “Country Has a Heart” ad that plays incessantly and always has the clip from Chesney’s insipid “You Had Me at Hello” song and all the talk about their whirlwind romance and how he fell in love with her from Jerry Maguire.

  2. I really wanted to use the subject line.

The worst thing about Chesney’s song is that it’s a misinterpretation of the original quote - his song is titled “You had me from hello,” which is not the quote from the movie and does not make grammatical sense.

“You had me from ‘hello’” makes perfect grammatical sense, using “from” in the sense of “from this moment on.”

I just hope Renee doesn’t cry. Her face might puff up and we’d never see her eyes again.

I have no idea what you’re talking among.

Did anybody with more than two brain cells actually think this coupling would work?

Best celebrity snark of September, 2005.

:frowning: I was hoping they would mate. I had a hunch their children would look a lot like Gilbert Gottfried and I wanted to see if I was right.

She has eyes?

My favorite description of Renee Zellweger was “she looks like someone sucked the air out of a kewpie doll.”

We really need to get a Celebrity Wedding/Divorce pool going.

They woulda been the shockers of the year.

Unless Paris Hilton married Marilyn Manson.

Okay, my only exposure to Mr. Chesney’s body of work is that damned repetitive commercial that plays a snipped of “You had me from ‘hello’,” and I had no idea he was married to (or even bumping uglies) with Rene.

After reading the article, however, all that I can say is that nobody who sings a song titled “She thinks my tractor’s sexy” should be allowed to engage in coitus with anyone, much less with Rene Zellweger.

And with that, Otto is dethroned. :smiley:

You had me at you lost me at I do.

sniff

Double or nothing if Jack White also gets a divorce and ends up back with Zellweger.

Fickle bitch.

What, and dump Dita von Teese? It would certainly shock the bejeezus out of me. I’m not sure how many hells would have to freeze over for me to make that trade.

So the rumors are true about Chesney being gay… :stuck_out_tongue: :stuck_out_tongue: :stuck_out_tongue:

You might have something there, because I just heard the reason for the annulment is FRAUD. Wonder if the marriage was a cover-up?

BTW, I listen to country music, but I despise Kenny. I will admit, he has some good songs (“Young,” “Keg in the Closet”), but the words that comes to mind when I see him are twerp and self absorbed.

I’m more of a Toby Keith, Gretchen Wilson, and Big & Rich girl.

On the “Best Week Ever” segment of the Today show this morning they said that Renee can now get back to the important task of storing nuts in her cheeks. :smiley:

Silly question: why an anullment rather than a divorce? Was the sex bad enough that we have to pretend it never existed? Was one of them already married?

What are grounds for anullment?

…just not Kenny’s.
