Ulrika Jonsson marries for third time

Television presenter Ulrika Jonsson has spoken of her joy at marrying for the third time.
The 40-year-old presenter, who married advertising executive Brian Monet at the weekend, said: "I don't think I have ever felt happier."
The wedding, which will be featured in Hello! magazine, reportedly took place at Blakes Hotel in London.
Jonsson told Hello!: "We have both been married before. I have three children from previous relationships and I am pregnant. You don't get more modern than that."
"I don't think I have ever felt happier. I don't live my life for the critics and I have three amazing, happy children."
"If I were to listen to people and what they thought, people I don't care about, I would be even more nuts than I am now," she said.
Speaking about her wedding dress, she said: "There is no hope of my being skinny with a bump. If I look like a beached whale, there's nothing I can do about it."
There were only 14 guests in attendance at the ceremony, plus Jonsson's three children. Her fourth baby is due in May.

Foo Fighters - Foo Fighter Hawkins Replaces Wilson On Tribute Track

FOO FIGHTERS star TAYLOR HAWKINS is set to take the place of late THE BEACH BOYS drummer DENNIS WILSON on an upcoming commemorative single.

Hawkins will provide vocals for Holy Man, which will feature on an updated version of Wilson's 1977 acclaimed solo album Pacific Ocean Blue, which will be released in the U.S. on 9 June (08).

The single is slated for release on the same day as the reissued double-CD LP, which will act as a tribute to the star, who died in 1983 after drowning at Los Angeles' Marina Del Rey.

And Gregg Jokobson, who co-wrote and co-produced the original album, insists the Foo Fighters drummer was an obvious choice to replace Wilson, because of his similar sounding vocal talents.

He says, "I always said, 'Taylor, you sound just like Dennis.' Taylor is just a natural. He came in, he did the vocal within an hour and I really think he knocked it out of the park."
