Gregg Allman engaged to 24-year-old girlfriend
4 hours ago | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »
He was born a rambling man, which may explain why Gregg Allman, 64, is engaged to be married for the seventh time; this time to 24-year-old named Shannon. The legendary rock singer revealed the news to Piers Morgan on CNN.
When Morgan asked how Shannon felt about becoming Allman's seventh wife, he answered, "That's not what she's becoming. She's becoming wife Number One. I don't have a wife, I haven't had one for years."
"This time, I am really in love," added the classic rocker, who says that he was only in love with two of his previous wives, though "they didn't reciprocate."
Allman has been married six times and has five children: Son Devon Allman, 39, with ex-wife Shelley Kay Winters; son Elijah Blue Allman, 35, with ex-wife Cher; daughter Delilah Island Allman, 31, with ex-wife Julie Bindas; son Michael Sean Allman, 45, with ex-girlfriend Mary Lynn Green; and daughter Layla Brooklyn Allman, 19, with ex-girlfriend Shelby Blackburn. »

Perhaps the seventh time's a charm. Rocker Gregg Allman is set to walk down the aisle with wife No. 7, and "this time," the 64-year-old rocker said, "I am really in love." The Allman Brothers Band founding member, who appeared on Piers Morgan Tonight Tuesday (among several other shows this week), is engaged to 24-year-old Shannon Williams.

Williams, 24, joined her soon-to-be husband on the program as he promoted his new memoir, My Cross to Bear, and when asked what she might think of becoming wife number seven, he quickly rose to defend their May-December romance.
"That's not what she's becoming," he responded. "She's becoming wife number one. I don't have a wife. Haven't had one for years."
To further his point he added, "This time, I am really in love."

Allman Brothers Singer Engaged To 24-Year-Old Girlfriend
25 May 2012 12:17 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Nashville, Tenn. -- Gregg Allman is getting married for the seventh time.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member has told several interviewers this week that he's engaged to his 24-year-old girlfriend, Shannon Williams, and Allman's publicist and manager confirmed the news Friday morning.
Allman talked about the unexpected love he felt for Williams in an interview with The Associated Press earlier this year for a story about his memoir, "My Cross to Bear," but admitted he was leery about taking the relationship further because of his past difficulties in his love life. But Allman told Howard Stern, Piers Morgan and a SiriusXM town hall audience this week that he's taken the relationship to the next stage.
Little is known about Williams, who entered the 64-year-old rock pioneer's life after a liver transplant and a run of health difficulties. Allman told the AP in a love-struck voice he met »

Tues Top Ten: Tennis in the Movies
22 May 2012 1:27 PM, PDT | FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news »
The world's number one ranked male tennis player turns a quarter century today so in honor of Novak Djokovic why not celebrate with a list of best tennis moments in the movies?
Because... uh...
Are there any? When I first thought of doing this list I was like Yes -- little known fact: I played tennis daily one summer in high school and still love the game -- only to hit a brick wall rather than a low net. You may have heard this complaint before from tennis fans but given the abundance of sports movies of every other stripe it's almost like Hollywood hates the game. Those private tennis courts on celebrity acreage are all going to waste.
I've come up with ten things anyway.

Cher Through The Years: Happy 66th Birthday!
20 May 2012 4:00 AM, PDT | TheFabLife - Movies | See recent TheFabLife - Movies news »
Cher has big plans for 2012, but don’t call it a comeback. The pop goddess has rarely slowed down in her 49-year career. Cher began recording her 26th studio album as of 2011, and plans to release “The Greatest Thing,” a duet with Lady Gaga, as its first single. The Armenian beauty won’t stop there. Cher announced via Twitter in February that she will also tour beginning in September 2012, her first tour in seven years. While she upholds her music and acting career, the mom of two still manages to be there for her kids. Not only was Cher Chaz Bono’s biggest fan while he was on Dancing With The Stars, but she also recently attended the GLAAD Media Awards with her son. Cher is such a supporter of Chaz and Lgbt rights, she’s currently in a feud with Mitt Romney and Donald Trump over the issue.

Cher Goes Out To Bat For Rihanna
19 May 2012 1:19 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Rihanna's revealing style may leave little to the imagination. But if there's one fellow diva the 24-year-old singer can count on for support when it comes to her overt attire, it's Cher.
The Burlesque star took to Twitter Friday defending Rihanna with a sharp message for her fashion critics.
Cher's tweet came just hours after Celebuzz called out the "Rude Boy" singer on twitter over her risque two-piece white crochet ensemble she wore to a restaurant in Los Angeles’ Thursday evening.
But Celebuzz got a shocking response from Rihanna.
Cher isn't the only one to defend Rihanna.
Last week Ebony ran an in depth piece calling out Chris Brown, Drake and other R&B singers for taunting the singer over her "sexual escapades".
While there's no doubt Rihanna faces double standards, we don't expect her wardrobe and behavior to change anytime soon. »

"Mad Men" Fabulous Quotient: The Naughtiest Tryst of the Season
30 April 2012 2:57 AM, PDT | AfterElton.com | See recent AfterElton.com news »
Grownups: They'll let you down! Or more accurately, they'll let you down by telling you the truth. Jerks. On Mad Men last night, we watched helplessly as elders threw tough love at their kids: Peggy's mother alerted her to the dangers of living in sin; Megan Draper's father warned her about forfeiting ambition; even Sally Draper learned a lesson in filthy adulthood -- but not from her staggeringly terrible father! Bizarre! But within all the cross-generational nuttiness, Mad Men managed to dish some faboo moments too. Here are this week's top five.
1. Megan Draper is a marketing genius and -- sigh -- hates herself for it.
It's predictable that Megan would be so brainy and instinctive. When we met her last season, she seemed like another grinning mannequin in the mold of Don's past flings, but Mad Men's favorite pastime is stunning you with "unexpected" character development. Megan's social »

The Good Wife's good sex scene: With no kissing or camera showing the below-the-shoulder action, Kalinda and Lana shared the hottest two-minute foreplay CBS would allow.
Erin Foley's stand-up job on Conan: The out comedian made her late-night debut and announced that she plays softball and loves sports. "Sometimes stereotypes are true!"

Gregg Allman Wooed Cher With Sitars and Heroin
27 April 2012 12:15 PM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Gregg Allman's upcoming memoir My Cross to Bear of course recounts the saga of his relationship with Cher — quite possibly the most seventies relationship anyone ever had. In an excerpt in Rolling Stone, Allman says that the night they met, Cher "smelled like I would imagine a mermaid would smell [like]." (Seventies!) On their first date, they went to a Moroccan restaurant, "and we sat there, eating with our hands with the sitars playing," as was legally required for all first dates in the seventies. Later, they went to a mutual friend's house, where Allman "had just a little taste of doojee," which is cool seventies slang for heroin, and some of their friends "nodded out." Cher declared this the worst date ever, so they went out again to try to make things right. "This is when disco was just taking off, so we did some dirty dancing," Allman »

Michelle Pfeiffer's Five Best Roles
27 April 2012 11:05 AM, PDT | TheInsider.com | See recent The Insider news »
Michelle Pfeiffer was honored with the Cinema Icon Award at the CinemaCon awards ceremony in Las Vegas last night in celebration of her big screen career, which has spanned more than 30 years.
The 53 year old is my all-time favorite actress, so I was lightly horrified to hear one of my interns ask "the lady from New Years Eve?" as I gushed over how amazing she looked in photos from the ceremony. I mean, check her out and just try to tell me she's not as flawless now as she was in 1993.

But the fact that she's been reduced to being known for a supporting role in a pithy rom-com with younger generations breaks my Grease 2, LadyHawke, Dangerous Minds-loving heart.

It's been two years since Chaz Bono underwent gender reassignment surgery, and his mother Cher is still getting the hang of using the right pronoun with her son.
Access Hollywood's Shaun Robinson caught up with Cher and Chaz after he was awarded the Stephen F. Kolzak Award for promoting equality at the 23rd annual GLAAD (Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) Media Awards on Saturday night in Los Angeles.
"Cher, you were saying you get your pronouns mixed up sometimes," Shaun asked.
"I do... because it's like - we've talked about it - it's 40, 42 years ...
