I still don't get why she's with him, but whatever!
Hot couple Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green were spotted out in Culver City yesterday, taking in a showing of The Dark Knight together. Finally! Everyone's seen that movie at least twice already, right?
And that's totally an ad for the new 90210 in the last pic! Think Megan and David Silver (yeah, that's right!) will watch the premiere this week?
Or maybe they're Gossip Girl fans!

The smoldering hot starlet Megan Fox took along her boyfriend Brian Austin Green and his son Kassius to lunch at Chin Chin Restaurant in North Hollywood in these beautiful and EXCLUSIVE fotos! After eating some good grub they tried to go to the “Psychic Cottage,” a store with Tarot cards and spiritual readings. Maybe Brian was trying to see if his career could be revived in the future? Fortune was not in their favor as the sign said “OPEN” but the store was closed. The three peered inside trying to get someone to open the shop up. It seems they were desperate for some supernatural guidance or perhaps they just wanted some incense. After trying to tempt the fates for a few minutes, no one answered and the couple left and went home disappointed. We’ll give you our spiritual reading Megan: We see another blockbuster in your future, but not a long relationship with your current beau. Sorry.

Megan Fox makes Brian Austin Green give his dog up - then gets 2 dogs herself
Posted: August 8th, 2008, 2:51pm CDT by Celebitchy
Tags: Brian Austin green
Brian Austin Green, 35, had a mastif-pitt bull mix dog named Macy that he adopted three years ago when she was just a puppy. His live-in fiance Megan Fox, 22, is said to have told him that it was her or the dog. The National Enquirer has this story, and claims Macy was a well-trained and well-behaved dog and didn’t cause any problems. Brain ultimately gave up the dog to a good home at Megan’s insistence, but he’s said to be heart broken about it.Megan Fox has fiance Brian Austin Freen on such a short leash that she’s forced him to give up his best friend - his beloved dog Macy!
“Megan claimed she felt threatened by Macy, but that dog was a sweetheart. She wouldn’t hurt a fly,” divulged an insider.
“Brian adored Macy and refused to give her up for the longest time, but Megan nagged him about it until he finally gave in. He was crushed.”
[Brian] adopted 3-year-old Macy, a mastiff-pit bull mix, when she was 3 months old - around the same time he and Megan, 22, began living together, according to sources.
After adopting the dog, 35 year-old Brian enrolled her in rigorous training courses at the Hollywood Dog Training School…
“Macy was really mellow and well-behaved,” the source added. “Whenever Brian went out of town he’d board Macy at the training school.
“The trainers were shocked when Brian’s assistant came in one day and said Brian was being forced to give Macy up for adoption because Megan didn’t get along with her.”
[From The National Enquirer, print edition, August 18, 2008]
The Enquirer goes on to say that to add insult to injury “Right after Brian gave Macy up for adoption, Megan adopted two tiny dogs.”
There was a story a while ago the Brian was overheard at lunch venting to a friend about how Megan controls his life, including making schedules for him so he spent a specific amount of time together. These two were rumored to have broken up last month, but Brian denied it, saying they were still together.
It’s very cold to make someone give up their pet, and you have to wonder if these two are ready to get married and take it to the next step. If Fox is as controlling and cold-hearted as she’s rumored to be, she would definitely make a terrible wife. It doesn’t matter how hot someone is if they’re a nightmare to be with.

Brian Austin Green says he and Megan Fox are still together
Posted: July 10th, 2008, 1:08am CDT by JayBird
Tags: Brian Austin green
Despite about a billion reports last week that Megan Fox had dumped fiancé Brian Austin Green, Green says it’s untrue. Which is super weird, because the internet was abuzz with the gossip last Thursday, and neither Fox nor Green bothered to address the supposedly incorrect gossip until today.
Brian Austin Green says everything’s going great with fiancée Megan Fox.
(London’s Daily Star reported that Fox, 22, called off her engagement to the former 90210 star after realizing “she’s too young to marry him.”)
“We’re solid,” Green, 34, says in the new issue of TV Guide. “We’ve lived together for three years. We have tattoos of each other’s names.”
Green’s only gripe about their relationship? “We have more time away from each other right now than we’d like,” he says.
Green - who has a son, Kassius, with ex fiancée Vanessa Marcil - says he “would love” to have more kids.
For now, he and Fox - who met in 2004 and got engaged in 2006 - are “rescuing pets from pet stores. We have a potbellied pig, we have dogs, two cats, two birds a squirrel.
[From Us Weekly]
How freaking adorable. I can’t say why, but somehow I don’t find this entirely believable. Maybe it’s because it took them so long to respond to the gossip. Or maybe it’s because Megan Fox hasn’t said a word. I just wouldn’t be entirely surprised if in a week we find out that they have split after all.
In other news, Green seems to be just about the only 90210 cast member that hasn’t been asked to join the cast of the spin-off. So far Tori Spelling is confirmed, and it seems pretty likely that Shannen Doherty and Jennie Garth will both be involved in some capacity. Too bad for Brian, as his career probably could have used it.

Brian Austin Green and Megan Fox on the Rocks?
Posted: January 30th, 2008, 8:25am CST by Spicy Pants
Tags: Brian Austin green
According to BauerGriffinOnline.com, Brian Austin Green was having lunch on the patio with a buddy at the Daily Grill in Studio City when he was heard rambling for over an hour about his relationship with girlfriend Megan Fox. The source says it sounded as though the couple may be on the outs.
He began comparing Megan to the girl that he had been going out with before her who he’d broken up with for Fox, saying that Fox is behaving just like her. Apparently, the 21-year-old Transformer star is extremely set in her ways. The entire relationship was based on her terms, beginning with a “white board,” upon which the pair would document the amount of time allotted to their relationship, family, and work. Green strove to maintain a fifty percent balance between time spent each other, and time spent apart. Fox, however, would sneak behind his back and erase planned dates with Green in order to have more time away from him. In fact, she would regularly cancel plans at the last moment, often by text. Throughout their turbulent relationship, Fox would threaten to get her lawyer involved in their disputes, while Green expressed his shock to his friend as he has never had a personal attorney in his “entire” life. He complained animatedly about how “unfair” their relationship was.
The obviously heart-broken Green went on to say that the young actress and budding star could never sit still and couldn’t stand silence yet would moon in bed all day when they had a fight.
After ragging on Fox for close to an hour, the two men realized that the people at the table next to them might have overheard everything they said. Green seemed nervous and his friend asked the other diners if they had been eavesdropping because “that would be really bad.” Looks like Fox has finally moved on!
Ok, I could have maybe believed the story up until the end. Asking other diners if they were eavesdropping? Not very believable. I’m surprised these two are still together anyhow. Meg is so out of his league.

David Silver's Pissed At His Girlfriend
Posted: January 30th, 2008, 6:59am CST
Tags: Brian Austin green
Here's Brian Austin Green. He's wearing eye makeup these days, isn't doing much except for living off his "90210" money, and yet somehow lands the hottest pieces of ass in Hollywood. He's currently seeing "Transformers" star and Maxim-type pinup chickie Megan Fox. And apparently Megan finds that because she's hot, she can be real high maintenance. Probably because she knows ole' David Silver is damn lucky to have her because I don't see "David Silver: The Middle Aged Years" happening anytime soon. Brian was recently overheard at the Daily Grill in Studio City, CA complaining loudly to a dining companion about how much of a pain in the balls Ms. Fox, 21, can be. Apparently, these freaks keep a white board dividing up how much time they should be spending together and apart. And she keeps erasing time with him so she can be on her own. And when he complains, she threatens to get her lawyer involved. That's one silly Hollywood relationship he's got going there. Oh and get this. When Brian realized everyone in the restaurant could hear him piss and moan about how his testicles are in Megan's purse, his friend went around asking diners if they had eavesdropped and saying it would be "very bad" if they had. Ooooh, Brian Austin Green's friend just threatened me. Duck and cover, everyone!

Prince Charles Helps Save The World One Tree At A Time
Posted: December 29th, 2007, 2:21pm CST by parrish
Tags: green and famous
This week, Prince Charles put down the pint and meat pie and picked up the checkbook to help Norway stop deforestation around the world. Charles pledged to contribute $541.2 million dollars a year to Norway’s efforts and offered to send representatives to learn more about the problem.Norway’s Prime Minister, Jens Stoltenberg, accepted the offer and further invited any country committed to stopping deforestation to come and play ball (metaphorically speaking, of course). Anyway, I’ve been texting George Dubya all day and haven’t gotten a response yet. Typical!
Deforestation in developing countries is estimated to contribute a fifth of total global greenhouse gas emissions through the release of carbon dioxide, and Norway believes the fastest and most cost effective way to help end global warming is to halt this damaging process. Furthermore, in April, Stoltenberg set a goal to make Norway totally carbon neutral by 2050 by offsetting Norwegian greenhouse gas emissions by investing in environmental projects throughout the developing world.
Basically what I’m saying here is: Anyone wanna move to Norway with me?

The Pope Gives A Shout Out To Mother Earth During His Christmas Mass
Posted: December 26th, 2007, 7:43pm CST by parrish
Tags: green and famous
I’m half Jewish and half Catholic, so I feel like it’s only HALF appropriate I cover this story. But on the other hand, I’m 100 percent green, so here it goes, baby:Pope Benedict XVI used his Christmas homily to speak out against the destruction of our environment and human selfishness during the midnight mass at St Peter’s Basilica. During the homily, he stated, “Man is so preoccupied with himself, he has such urgent need of all the space and all the time for his own things, that nothing remains for others - for his neighbour, for the poor, for God.” Continuing, he added, “What would he (God) say if he could see the state of the world today, through the abuse of energy and its selfish and reckless exploitation?
The pope is considered to be the spiritual leader of about 1.1 and 1/2 billion Catholics (the half, being me) and just think how much help that homily could do if every last one of them really listened. You know it’s serious when the Vatican goes green.

Celebrities Will Now Sell Poison…Literally
Posted: December 21st, 2007, 9:54am CST by parrish
Tags: Not green
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (or as I call it, corrupt-central) is proposing a law that will allow pesticide manufacturers to display “third-party endorsements” and charitable tie-ins on their labels. Ya’ll, this is a huge deal! Because a pesticide label is a legal document, any endorsement or advertisements is currently strictly prohibited, so as to not distract the consumer from the very important safety instructions on the label. If this new law passes, pesticides and other regulated poisons would be allowed to prostitute endorsements from celebrities or prominent groups, and also include tie-ins with “approved” charities.
Even the Association of American Pesticide Control Officers thinks this is a bad idea and has said that this kind of marketing could “mislead, be misinterpreted, or be falsely offering assurances of safety…” They also report that pesticides are the eighth most frequent cause of calls to poison centers, and that there are nearly 100,000 exposures a year, nearly half of which affect children younger than six.
The EPA’s plan is open for public comment until December 31st, and I highly, highly recommend all Ecorazzi readers to go their WEBSITE and tell the EPA what you think about this very dangerous proposal.
You guys, I work for a celebrity inspired website. I like celebrities. I’m all for celebrity endorsements. But this, this is going just a little too far!

Jack Nicholson Says We Need To Move To Big Solar. Now.
Posted: December 21st, 2007, 7:45am CST by michael
Tags: green and famous
It’s not often that Jack Nicholson does interviews. As it is, the guy only agrees to make one film per year. His annual entry this year is The Bucket List — a film about two guys (Morgan Freeman plays the other lead) with terminal cancer that decide to do everything they ever wanted to do before they kick it.Nicholson launches into some pretty clever answers on everything concerning politics, oil, and solar energy. Here are some highlights:
On why he has not been politically active since George McGovern’s 1972 campaign?
“I wanted to do solar energy. I wanted to legalize drugs versus the terrorist problem, which I was aware of in the ’70s. Because where else are they getting illegal money at that level?
Enforce the monopoly laws of the Constitution they’re so proud of, which would have eliminated Enron and the interlocking directorate of conglomeration. Double teacher salaries. Find a way to liase from a personnel point of view between the military and the domestic police. These are all non-starters, what they call in politics. My position as a whippersnapper was ‘hey, any of you people relate to any one of these issues, I’ll know you’re seriously interested in fundamental change. Until you do, I’m not interested in pie-baking contests.’”On moving the country to solar energy and the influence of big oil:
“How do they talk about these small increments of energy conservation when we burn 60 per cent of the gas at stop signs and traffic lights?” Solar electricity is the only thing that can make an impact on this problem. It’s too big. We don’t have the ability to generate the electricity, to convert, unless we go to big solar. It’s an engineering problem, it’s not a scientific problem. There is no momentum for solar electricity because of the powerful oil industry’s ability to set the scientific and political agenda.
There’s nobody in the field, no teachers, where their livelihood is not dependent in some way on petroleum grants. And I’m not vilifying the petroleum industry right now. … Fact of the matter is, say there is an evil genius. Every day that whatever the petroleum interest is keeps this from being understood, that man is doing his job to the tune of whatever they make every day.”

PETA Administers The 39th Lash To Michael Vick With A Festive Holiday Card
Posted: December 19th, 2007, 10:05am CST by parrish
Tags: Not green
The People For The Ethical Treatment Of Animals love their e-cards. As Ecorazzi reported earlier, Michael Vick is currently serving a 23-month jail sentence on dog fighting conspiracy charges. Well in the spirit of the season, PETA has just released a brand new “holiday” card featuring Michael Vick in an orange jump suit locked inside of a snow globe designed to look like a prison with a ball and chain around his leg. Behind Vick is a guard with his dog ferociously watching over him. When you visit the site you can “shake” the globe and watch Vick crash into the walls as a voiceover says, “They got to the quarterback’s blind side there. He never had a chance.”
Ok, If you’re familiar with some of my previous posts you know that I am a PETA member and supporter, but I think this is just plain tacky. Ok, we get it, Michael Vick seriously messed up and now he’s paying for his mistake. Do we really have to mock the guy with a festive card? The only holiday message this is sending is, “Na, na nee boo, boo”, and gloating is never attractive. Sometimes, PETA crosses that oh so delicate line and goes from helping to hurting. We got our point across guys, I have a feeling Vick will be staying far away from anything with four legs for a very long time. As we approach the end of 2007, we should be focusing on forgiving, not mocking.
If you MUST see the card you can view it HERE.

PETA Goes After Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen
Posted: December 11th, 2007, 1:55pm CST by paige
Tags: Not green
The PETA folks are at it again and claiming their latest fur wearing victims - The Olsen twins, or should we say the “Trollsen Twins.” The campaign sponsored by the Youth Division of Peta (Peta2) slams “Hairy Kate” and “Trashley” for their heartless decision to wear fur and include it in their new fashion line. The campaign includes the tagline: “Fur Is Worn by Beautiful Animals and Ugly People.”In a plea to help convince the twins that wearing fur is wrong, the campaign is unveiling a poster on their Walk of Fame star in Los Angeles. In addition, it is encouraging people to visit the Meet the Trollsen Twins website where they can play games like Dress Up The Trollsen Twins and view explicit fur investigation video.
Animal cruelty is certainly no laughing matter, but this kind of is. Check out the full Trollsen website here.

Joanna Lumley Goes From Absolutely Fabulous To Absolutely Green
Posted: December 10th, 2007, 7:38am CST by parrish
Tags: green and famous
Joanna Lumley, most commonly known for her work on the British television series Absolutely Fabulous, has teamed up with the dudes and dudettes at Recycle Now to help make this holiday season a little more environmentally digestible. This year, Recycle Now has set a goal to recycle 100 million of the over 1 billion Christmas cards we will write this December.
Lumley went on record saying, “A simple way to help reduce this and help climate change at the same time is to recycle as much as possible and Christmas cards are one of the easiest items to keep out of our bins.” (Did you just laugh a little at the word “bin?”)
Fridey Cordingley, who is the head of Recycle Now added, “The amount of extra rubbish (that’s a funny word too) produced over Christmas is staggering, but there are lots of easy ways to help cut this down. Recycling is an easy way to reduce the amount of waste going to landfills and help tackle climate change. The extra waste we create at Christmas produces 1.4 million tons of CO2 - the same as producing enough energy required to enable all the households in Leeds and Doncaster to watch TV for a year. ” (Leeds, Doncaster? Those Brits crack me up!)
So this year, Ecorazzi encourages everyone to find new and creative ways to help reduce the amount of holiday waste produced in the name of jolly, old St. Nick and that infamous so and so, Chanukah Harry. Oh, and I encourage everyone to find new and creative ways to use funny British words in your everyday vernacular…like bin and rubbish.

Everyone has their opinion about who might be the best person for the job, and that of course includes our famous brothers and sisters.
This weekend, Sean Penn released an official statement giving his full support to Dennis Kucinich, saying, “He has been the dominant voice of integrity on issues of trade, labor, education, environment, health, civil liberties, and the one endlessly determined voice of peace.” Penn, never particularly shy to share his political ideas, continued on to speak fondly of Kucinich for his “moral courage”, and devotion to the constitution.
Penn also shared his thoughts about Hillary Clinton, “Don’t underestimate the damage her poisonous ambition can do to this country. We can’t wait for the benefit of hindsight to service the benefit of Mrs. Clinton’s career. ”
Wowsers! And it’s only December kids! Buy your tickets now for another 11 months of celebrities putting on those partisan boxing gloves all in the name of peace. Amen.
To whole speech is available here.

Woody Harrelson and Owen Wilson Enjoy A Teepee In Peru
Posted: December 7th, 2007, 9:19am CST by michael
Tags: green and famous
Woody Harrelson and Owen Wilson have been spotted in Peru roughing it out and attempting to blend in with the locals. A local celebrity program called ”Magaly TeVe” filmed the pair deep in Peru’s Andes bathing in an irrigation ditch wearing nothing but their boxer shorts. From the article,
“It showed the pair pouring handfuls of water over themselves under the highland sun. Harrelson and Wilson were reportedly visiting a local orphanage they support near Cuzco, the ancient Incan capital.”
That orphanage, Casa de Milagros, is just outside of a spiritual retreat the two are staying at called the Hanaq Pacha Retreat Center. Not only are the accommodations affordable ($50/night) but they’re also unique, with Woody and Owen spending their time in a eco-friendly teepee. The wood and canvas “malocas” sleep up to four people and feature furnishings created by local artisans and the kids of the of the orphanage.
The back-to-basics resort, also sponsored by Harrelson, is a yoga and spiritual retreat that has its own organic gardens that grows vegetables. Seems like a great getaway — and another insight into the great projects sponsored by Woody. Enjoy gents!

Tags: Not green
TMZ recently published this picture of singer Mary J. Blidge leaving her NYC hotel wearing a small jungle. You don’t need to look closely to notice the bulky fur coat, oversized leather bag and cow-hide leather boots. EEKS! Now it’s just a guess, but I bet she wasn’t on her way to the Global Green Awards!I didn’t want to…I really didn’t want to…but Mary, I’m giving you the Ecorazzi slap on the “fill in body part here” for taking the fashion low road. You don’t have to kill to look killer. Don’t you know that? You broke my heart today, Mary, you broke my heart.

Josh Lucas Takes One For The Tree This Holiday Season
Posted: December 5th, 2007, 3:03pm CST by parrish
Tags: green and famous
Josh Lucas, star of such films as Sweet Home Alabama and Poisdeon, is taking Christmas to the next level: the recycled level. Lucas recently told OK magazine, “My family has been recycling and been part of this moment since I have been born so it’s in my blood.” Maybe that’s why Josh is taking one for the team this year and ditching the traditional Christmas Tree for an organically recycled plastic one.This whole Christmas Tree fiasco gives me a headache. On one hand I totally understand that cutting down a tree is a waste of a perfectly good shrub, and even though I dig the smell of a real Christmas Tree, I can’t seem to buy one. On the other hand, it’s common knowledge that most “fake” Christmas Trees are made from Polyvinyl Chloride, which in Latin means: non-biodegradable, horrible for the earth, mutant plant that will eat your children. Josh might be on to something with his organically recycled tree, but I don’t have his billfold. So, what I’ve done in the past (and this is super dorky, yet kind of charming to the ladies) is to cut off the top of a pineapple and make a baby tree. It stands on its own and provides an extra ounce of holiday cheer. And since I live in a typical NYC apartment it only takes up half of my living room.
Comment back and tell Ecorazzi how you handle the great Christmas Tree conundrum, or as I’ve unofficially labeled it: The Plight Before Christmas.
One additional shout out: Happy Birthday dad. I love you!

Michael Jackson Adds “Green” To His List Of Many Colors
Posted: December 4th, 2007, 10:07am CST by parrish
Tags: green and famous
The multi-color, technicolor King of Pop has finally made that essential leap onto the green bandwagon. This weekend, Michael Jackson was seen scooting about town (or rather being scooted about town) in a fancy new Toyota Prius. Jackson has long since had a reputation for being a bit of a thorn in the side of Mother Earth. You know, owning private jets, massive mansions, his own amusement park…that whole bag. And I must say, it’s refreshing to finally see Jackson take a step in the green direction.
Jackson joins a goggle of other celebrities such as Cameron Diaz, Harrison Ford, Jennifer Aniston and Will Ferrell, who have all been seen rocking a cleaner driving ride. Say what you want about the guy, but I must give credit where credit is due.
So Michael Jackson, a message from me to you: stay out of trouble and keep on chuggin away in that sweet, green machine.

The Golden Compass Gets Two Thumbs Pointed South
Posted: December 3rd, 2007, 6:29pm CST
Tags: eva green
Looking at the varying outfits on the red carpet for "The Golden Compass" premiere, you wouldn't know that everyone there was headed for the same event. Eva Green and Sam Elliot posed together on the red carpet, looking very striking with their flowing locks and Eva's insistence on always looking extremely intense. Their formal outfits were a strange contrast to the casual winter-wear worn by Topher Grace and model/sometimes actress Irina Pantaeva, who is dressed in a deliciously way-too-casual sweatshirt top and jeans, with her goofy, furry hood pulled up over her head. I seriously wouldn't be surprised to see a teddy bear backpack strapped on her back, if she were to turn around. But, somehow, she seems so comfortable in her outfit, as she beams so earnestly from within that frame of fur that I really don't mind it one bit. Oh yeah, and by the way, the movie itself is getting some tepid reviews, so these red carpet appearances might actually be the best part.

Jolie and Pitt Buy Their Own Island
Posted: December 3rd, 2007, 10:55am CST by parrish
Tags: green and famous
Do you ever feel like your apartment is too cramped? Ever say to yourself, “Gosh I could totally use my own island?” Well if you’re Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie the thought has more than crossed your mind. It’s been reported that the famous duo just bought one of the exclusive islands that make up the super-development, The World In Dubai.The World, is located just off the coast of Dubai and was developed by state-owned developer, Nakheel. Although no official reports have been announced, it’s rumored that other celebrities such as David Beckham, Richard Branson and Rod Stewart have also purchased islands.
Have no fear, the eco-aware power couple don’t plan on simply using the island for pina-colada, eighties themed reggae parties. Pitt and Jolie have both declared that they are going to use their new chunk of land to spotlight environmental issues and to promote a greener lifestyle.
Following in their famous footsteps, I too will be promoting a greener lifestyle by dreaming about purchasing my own island…where I WILL be having pina-colada, eighties themed reggae parties.

Ecorazzi Salutes Alicia Silverstone
Posted: December 3rd, 2007, 9:26am CST by parrish
Tags: green and famous
So this is the premier of a new feature on Ecorazzi where each month we’ll spotlight one green celebrity that goes above and beyond their call of duty to help promote a green way of life. This month we salute Alicia Silverstone. The year was 2006, I was young lad of 23 working at Angelica Kitchen and trying to survive in NYC. The annual Farm Sanctuary Gala was about to take place, but lack of funds prevented me from attending. Luckily, I was able to volunteer and that is the first time Alicia Silverstone ever spoke with me. I believe the exact words were, “Excuse me, which way is table number 15.” Of course I was familiar with Alicia’s work (both on screen and off) and had secretly been sporting a solid crush on her since Clueless, but it was watching her speak at the Farm Sanctuary Gala that solidified my decision that she might be the greenest celeb ever!!
Alicia resides in Los Angeles in a house that rocks solar panels, an organic vegetable garden and a crew of rescued dogs. As a long time vegan (represent yo), she not only refrains from buying animal products, but takes it a step further by purchasing only organic cotton or alternative fabrics, such as hemp and canvas. And her beauty secret: products from companies like Jurlique and Burt’s Bee’s that are both vegan and good for the earth. Of course she uses energy-efficient light bulbs and also promotes the use of bamboo as a good alternative to wood flooring. When it comes to cruising, you’ll find Alicia chillin in her Toyota Prius with her rescued dog Samson (who is also a vegan). But most importantly, the greatest thing about Alicia is that she uses every possible opportunity to promote her eco-happy lifestyle in a way that’s informative, non-judgmental and totally charming.
Yes, yes, I know that Alicia Silverstone is happily married to musician Christopher Jarecki, but all I’m saying is that if one day that doesn’t work out, I’ll be waiting. I mean she even had a Bat Mitzvah…my grandma would be so proud!
