Seth Rogen marries Lauren Miller in wine country wedding

Seth Rogen wedding to Lauren Miller

Seth Rogen's wedding to writer Lauren Miller took place Sunday in Sonoma, with the couple getting married in a hilltop ceremony capping three days in the Northern California wine country, according to widespread reports.

Rogen, 29, and Miller, 30, who've been together since 2004, were married by a female rabbi in a Jewish ceremony on a hilltop surrounded by vineyards at Kunde Estate, People said. The reception was held elsewhere on the property, with pictures showing the newlyweds seated in a white convertible for their ride to the party.

"The wedding was more laughs than anything else," a source told Us Weekly. "Every other line was a joke and the crowd couldn't contain their laughter."

That's hardly a surprise, with folks including Judd Apatow and Leslie Mann, Jonah Hill, Adam Sandler, Paul Rudd and Craig Robinson in attendance.

The wedding was held the same weekend that "50/50," Rogen's cancer comedy with Joseph Gordon-Levitt, premiered to decent though not overwhelming box-office success. With seven years together already under their belts, the bride and groom would seem to face much better odds.

Highest-paid actors: Leo DiCaprio is king, Johnny Depp follows

Leonardo DiCaprio isn't dreaming: His "Inception" money is all too real, landing the leading man at the top of a ranking of Hollywood's highest-paid actors.

At a cool $77 million in earnings, from the aforementioned Christopher Nolan film and Martin Scorsese's "Shutter Island," Leo took the top spot on Forbes' list from the previous year's winner, Johnny Depp.

Depp came in with a considerably lower (but still considerable) $50 million for his "Pirates of the Caribbean" paycheck and bonuses. Forbes looked at earnings from May 2010 to May 2011.

On his heels was Adam Sandler, who tallied personal receipts around $40 million from the biggest earner of his career, the recent "Grown Ups," and his Jennifer Aniston-starrer, "Just Go With it."

Will Smith clocked in at No. 4 with a $36-million income -- impressive as the actor, who's been busy promoting and producing for his children Jayden and Willow, hasn't been visible on marquees for the last two years. Forbes said the dollar amount consists mostly of his fees for the upcoming "Men in Black III."

Rounding out the list were Tom Hanks, Ben Stiller, Robert Downey Jr., Mark Wahlberg, Tim Allen ($22 million in pay and residuals from voicing Buzz Lightyear in the "Toy Story" franchise) and Tom Cruise.

Drew Barrymore to direct 'How To Be Single'

Drew Barrymore to direct 'How to be Single' Drew Barrymore is climbing back into the director's seat with a new rom-com called "How to be Single" that her company Flower Films is producing.

"How to be Single," the big-screen adaptation of Liz Tuccillo's novel of the same name, looks at the relationship ups-and-downs of a collection of New Yorkers over 10 years using multiple story lines like "Valentine's Day" and "He's Just Not That Into You," according to the Hollywood Reporter.

The face of Cover Girl made her directorial debut with in 2009 with "Whip It" starring Ellen Page and Kristen Wiig. She's no stranger to the date-movie genre either (think "Never Been Kissed," "50 First Dates," "The Wedding Singer," "Lucky You").

If her relationship with "Going the Distance" costar Justin Long is any indication, she knows a thing or two about the single life as well.

If only she could cast Adam Sandler in the film. Ah, the Ministry can dream...

Lady Gaga makes runway debut for Thierry Mugler in Paris

Lady-gaga-runway-debut-mugler Walk, walk, fashion baby -- Lady Gaga has made her runway debut.

In news that we're frankly surprised hasn't come earlier, the Lady walked for close pal Nicola Formichetti and his creative charge Theirry Mugler on Wednesday in Paris.

In Cruella de Vil-inspired blond ponytails and raven dome, Gaga strutted in her normal, impossibly high heels, a super-constructed bustier and flowing skirt. She also gave show-goers a slice of one of her new tracks, "Government Hooker."

Formichetti isn't just creative director at Mugler, he's also Gaga's personal stylist and prolific contributor to her notorious Haus.

What do you think of her runway look? Tell us in comments.

'Friends' Matthew Perry, Matt LeBlanc and Jennifer Aniston back in a big way

Matthew Perry in 'Mr. Sunshine' This post has been corrected. Please see the note at the bottom.

The cast of "Friends" is back to making headlines, this time with Matthew Perry leading the way with ratings love for the debut of his new sitcom, "Mr. Sunshine."

Thanks to a lot of hype and a lead-in from "Modern Family" on Wednesday night, 10.57 million viewers tuned in to watch the premiere of the ABC show, according to overnight ratings from Nielson Co.

The show stars Perry as a San Diego stadium owner and Andrea Anders as his love interest, who is his "Friends" costar Matt LeBlanc's real-life girlfriend.

(The 9:30 p.m. Wednesday premiere bar had been set pretty high in 2009 by another "Friends" alum, Courteney Cox, whose "Cougar Town" on ABC drew 11.28 million viewers in September of that year.)

Matt LeBlanc in 'Episodes' Flip the channel to NBC, where LeBlanc shattered many a heart -- including Jay Leno's -- when he visited "The Tonight Show" and revealed that he'd started dyeing his hair black while "Friends" was in full swing. The star of Showtime's "Episodes" said he started dyeing the sides of his now salt-and-pepper locks in his mid-20s.

"Dyeing it on the show would take like an hour and a half," he said — so he got some Just for Men and started coloring it himself. It "takes five minutes, but then about a half-hour of paint-thinner to get the black off your ears," he said, laughing.

"This is shattering for those of us that loved the show," Leno said.

Another "Friends" fun fact: LeBlanc said he shut down production on the Emmy-winning show during "The One Where No One's Ready." He blew out his shoulder while performing "the safest stunt," in which Joey had to jump over the coffee table and land in the down chair that he and Chandler were fighting over.

For the record, 5:35 p.m.: This post originally said "Mr. Sunshine" had bested "Cougar Town's" premiere-night ratings, with numbers given only for the Matthew Perry show. "Cougar Town" in fact premiered with 11.28 million viewers to "Mr. Sunshine's" 10.57 million.

Jennifer Aniston, Adam Sandler 'Just Go With It' at premiere

Jennifer Aniston and Adam Sandler

The stars of "Just Go With It" took to the blue carpet Tuesday for the premiere of the comedy starring Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston.

Brooklyn Decker picture from Just Go With It premiereThe funny people walked the media line at the Ziegfeld Theatre in New York as a pair, fielding questions together, simultaneously interrupting each other and completing each other's sentences.

And why not? Aniston, 41, and Sandler, 44, have been friends since before his "Saturday Night Live" days, and she had a shot to join the show before she instead became Rachel Greene on "Friends."

In the film, Sandler plays a plastic surgeon who pretends to be married to woo women. But when "the one" discovers his fake wedding ring, he enlists his frumpy assistant, played by Aniston, to pose as his wife.

The aforementioned "one" is played by model Brooklyn Decker, who attended the premiere with hot tennis hubby Andy Roddick. (Click her pic for more photos from the premiere.)

Nicole Kidman, who plays Aniston's frenemy in the film, also attended with husband Keith Urban and movie husband Dave Matthews.

One thing we do know, Aniston can't do frumpy if she tried, even if she wears glasses and a ponytail. The Malibu fixture stunned in a simple strapless Dolce & Gabbana gown at the premiere. And Sandler traveled with his trusty companion: wife Jackie.

"Just Go With It" hits theaters Friday.

Jennifer Aniston: The scent of jasmine, and a gift for Oprah, but alas, no 'SNL'

Jennifer-aniston-adam-sandl

It was raining Jennifer Aniston tidbits Thursday as the actress made her way talking up her Adam Sandler movie "Just Go With It" and other projects -- "other" including the self-titled fragrance that just rolled out stateside with Sephora.

"I wanted this fragrance to be a personal library of scent memories. For example, my love of night blooming jasmine has lasted a lifetime," the actress said in a release. "Growing up in California, I distinctly remember the scent of the jasmine on summer evenings."

She also stopped by Oprah Winfrey's couch, along with costar Sandler, and brought the mogul and longtime Aniston pal a gift: a yoga mat with a photo of Winfrey's dogs on it.

"This is my family," Oprah said, beaming and holding up the mat so the audience could see.

Speaking of family, Aniston almost had an entirely different one in the work department. She and Sandler discussed the Lorne Michaels job offer -- to join the cast of "Saturday Night Live" in the '90s -- that Aniston rejected.

Turns out she had a little show called "Friends" in the works, and decided to stick with that.

Adam Sandler gets his star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame

Adam Sandler star Hollywood Walk of Fame Funnyman Adam Sandler finally has his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

"Waterboy" costar Henry Winkler was part of the ceremony  Tuesday, as was Kevin James, who appeared with Sandler in "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry."

"This is a big deal," Sandler said. "I feel honored and can't believe this has happened in my life."

The actor-comedian attended the ceremony with wife Jackie and their daughters Sadie Madison and Sunny Madeline in tow, pulling at his leg and asking to be picked up during the festivities.

"Let's hear it for my kids, who are now showing you that I cannot control them," he joked as he took the podium to receive the 2,341st star, this one in front of the W Hotel.

"All they ever did was make me feel like I'm good at things, and even when I was terrible at things made me brim with confidence," he said.

(We love it when the stars bring their adorable kiddie constellations to these events.)

Sandler got his start in the early '90s as a writer and featured character on "Saturday Night Live," then grew to super-stardom with flicks including "Happy Gilmore," "Billy Madison" and "The Wedding Singer."

He has starred in 11 films that grossed $100-million-plus and will soon share the screen with Jennifer Aniston in "Just Go With It," which hits theaters Feb. 11.
