      Looks like another celeb just walked down the aisle! On Saturday, Dexter and Buffy the Vampire Slayer alum Julie Benz tied the knot with Rich Orosco, her marketing executive boyfriend of four years. Congratulations to the happy couple!

      Julie and Rich have been engaged since June of last year-a proposal which included an $80,000, 3-carat Kwiat engagement ring (yowza!). According to People, they wed at 6pm on May 5 at the historic John Sowden house in Los Angeles' Los Feliz neighborhood. But it was no ordinary wedding: In honor of Cinco de Mayo and Rich's Mexican heritage, they threw a Mexican-themed bash.

      For those of you unfamiliar with the John Sowden house, it's a pretty distinctive locale; known as the Jaws House, it looks not unlike the toothsome mouth of a great white shark:

      In case you haven't already noticed from the frequency with which I write about her, Jennifer Garner is by far my favorite celebrity mom. Why? Mostly because she doesn't really seem like a celebrity mom. She's just a mom, and she loves her kids and her family, and it

      The Kentucky Derby, held at the famed race course the Churchill Downs, is known as the first step for racehorses to achieve the Triple Crown. It's also famed for mint juleps, Derby parties and hats. Oh the hats! When you place celebrities like Debra Messing, Cyndi Lauper and Erin Andrews in hats, sometimes it works and sometimes, well, it just looks like a bad joke.

      Here are our 10 best and worst celebrity hats and the people who wore them.

    • How to Wear One Pair of Shorts Three Ways

      Take one pair of summery yellow shorts and you can create three completely three different outfits.

      Bright colors are big for spring and summer. When you're shopping, you can be intimidated by an item that may not appear to go with the rest of your wardrobe, right? Okay, we've all been there. To prove that you won't be stuck all spring and summer pairing the same items over and over again, we took the Mavi Tiara low rise cuffed shorts ($78, zappos.com) in pineapple and gave it three different looks, three different vibes.

      So the next time you're out shopping, remember that you really can pair one item with almost everything you own.

    • First Look: Lindsay Lohan as Herself on 'Glee'

      Images from Lindsay Lohan's upcoming episode of Glee have hit the web. Will she sink or swim?

      Remember back in March when it was announced that Lindsay Lohan would be guest starring on Glee as herself? Well, her episode, "Props/Nationals," is now only a week away from its air date-where does the time go?-so guess what that means? That's right: Pictures! And not just random on-set pictures-images from the special two-hour episode itself. In addition to the image featured above, we've also gotten a peek at Lindsay here:

      And here, with fellow guest star Rex Lee (who I will always think of as Mr. Wolfe on Suburgatory):

      What's going on here? We're not really sure, but we do know that these images are from this season's Nationals. Attempting to re-seize their title after last season's upset, the vocal superstars of McKinley High will be going up against their nemesis, Vocal Adrenaline, before a panel of judges that includes LiLo,

    • 'Brave's' Kickass, Arrow-Shooting Princess Merida Makes Her Disney World Debut!

      Princess Merida of the upcoming Pixar flick 'Brave' has started making appearances at Disney World-and not a moment too soon!

      Princess Merida IRLPrincess Merida IRL

      We've spoken many a time here at BettyConfidential about how psyched we are for the cinematic debut of Merida, the upcoming Pixar film Brave's warrior princess extraordinaire. We're still not sure why it took Pixar so long to develop a film with a female lead, but Merida is all kinds of awesome, so if we had to wait so long, at least we were waiting for something good! And hey, guess what? The arrow-shooting princess has started making appearances at Disney World!

      Though her official meet-and-greet location isn't quite ready yet-rumor has it that if all goes well, it will open later in the month-the flame-haired Scot has begun showing up at Disney World's EPCOT park for a few test runs. She's mostly been a roaming character, taking visitors by surprise and engaging in a bit of lively banter. Want to see some videos

      You may have noticed that we here at BettyConfidential are big fans of Old Hollywood: Bette Davis, Marilyn Monroe… We love them all. So when we heard that a veritable treasure trove of vintage, never-before-seen photographs of Hollywood icons were for sale, of course we had to share the news with you!

      First, a little background: Born in 1911, Leo Fuchs was both an actor and a photographer. Like so many actors of his era, he began his career on the stage; he made the big jump to film and television in the '60s, when he moved to Hollywood at the invitation of Rock Hudson, who just so happened to be one of his buddies. He spent over three decades in Tinseltown, during which time he took photo after photo of his friends and colleagues-stars like Montgomery Clift, Audrey Hepburn, Doris

      Last night, Prince William and his stunning wife, Kate Middleton AKA the Duchess of Cambridge went to the exclusive Thirty Dinner held at the oh so very, very posh Claridge Hotel in London. While Prince William was the speaker for this gathering of top advertising execs, all eyes were on Kate.

      She wore a simply cut, classically stunning cream Lombarde Roland Mouret gown. The gown had a rather high slit, so there was a ton of ahem, leg interest!

      On Kate's feet were Jimmy Choo Vamp glitter finish sandals and a simple gold clutch to add some sparkly dash to the gown. If Kate's outfit may seem a bit more "princess-glam" could it be a reaction to the attack she got from shoe designer Nicholas Kirkwood? He told The Daily Beast, "She just wears too much High Street stuff. I know she's trying to be democratic, but I don't know how many pairs of LK Bennett you
