Brad and Angelina Didn't Get Married

To those of you who were still doubting this, yes, you're perfectly right - life is completely unfair. This weekend may have hosted the greatest event in living celebrity history and the world simply didn't have a clue about whether it was for real or was all one big hoax - until late yesterday afternoon, that is. Unfortunately for them, the people at Star magazine really put their foot in it this time, when they were bold enough to go to print with claims that Brangelina got married in the French Quarter Wedding Chapel on Saturday. However, after several other celebrity magazines - OK! and People among them - heartily denied the rumor, and after countless reporters couldn't find any evidence of the alleged wedding, Star finally retracted their story.

"After further investigation, the sources are not standing by their story," they claim on their website. Many other media outlets who were happy enough to take over Star's initial report about the greatest wedding which never took place, all the more so since Star editor Candace Trunzo insisted to the Daily News that the magazine sources were rock-solid. And indeed, many assumed that no magazine would be bold enough to move forward with such a piece of news unless they had on good authority that it was all true. However, rival magazine OK! is now reporting that Star offered a mere $3,000 pay-off to the New Orleans minister who allegedly conducted the wedding of the century that never happened.

"We spoke to the reverend and he was able to completely dispel any talk of the marriage. In reality, he said he's never met them but wishes them well," the OK editor in chief claims. People magazine also denied the report over the weekend, claiming that Pitt and Jolie were not even in new Orleans over the weekend, but hauled up in Austin, Texas, area while Brad is currently working on his new film Tree of Life, co-starring Sean Penn. Star magazine's already shaky credibility is set to have quite a lot to suffer after this story, however there's a sense of "it would have been a great story," overhanging the Internet media this Monday morning. Too bad it was a fake rumor. Well, maybe next time.
