Latest news on first daughter Jenna Bush's upcoming wedding07:09 PM CDT on Wednesday, April 16, 2008In less than a month, first daughter Jenna Bush walks down the aisle – or whatever passes for an aisle at the president's 1,600-acre Prairie Chapel Ranch in Crawford. The wedding is expected to be a small, private affair, but not so small that the president's contemporary, honey-colored limestone house with its many windows can accommodate all the guests. A tent will be erected for the May 10 nuptials. Also Online Women's Wear Daily is reporting that designer Oscar de la Renta , a favorite of the first lady, has created a wedding gown for Jenna. The bride's 14 attendants will wear short chiffon dresses by designer and Bush family friend Lela Rose. Just a little background: Lela is now a hot New York designer, but she grew up in Dallas. Her father, Rusty Rose, was W.'s business partner in the Texas Rangers. As for her bridesmaids, there is only one: her twin sister, Barbara , who will be maid of honor. In a soon-to-be-released interview with Vogue magazine, Jenna reports that she considered a White House wedding. "That's not really my personality," she told the magazine. "There's a glamour to it, I know, but [groom] Henry [Hager] and I are far less glamorous than the White House." The 200 guests will stay for dinner and dancing after the 7:30 p.m. service. The word is also out that Jenna and husband-to-be have spent $440,000 for a 128-year-old row house in Baltimore. This will place Jenna in close proximity to her aunt, the president's kid sister, Doro Koch , who lives in nearby Bethesda. Doro has had a little experience with presidential weddings. When her father, George H.W. Bush, was president, she married Bobby Koch at Camp David. Now that her brother is president, she is a regular guest at the president's Catoctin Mountains retreat.
Bon Jovi: football fan
During his Monday night concert at American Airlines Center, Jon Bon Jovi showed what a class act he is by putting on the jersey of Dallas Desperados quarterback Clint Dolezel for the last five songs. He also gave the QB, who was present, a shout-out, calling him "one of the greatest players in arena football." Also Online When he's not being a rock star, Mr. Bon Jovi owns the Philadelphia Soul arena football team. And on April 28, the undefeated Soul will take on the undefeated Desperados in a clash of the titans on ESPN. The Desperados were well-represented at the concert by team COO Shy Anderson and his wife, Charlotte, daughter of Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, who brought along Tony Romo and his parents, Joan and Ramiro Romo, and Jason Witten and his wife, Michelle.
Shake it, Jon
And this answers a question that puzzled many fans: What was Mr. Bon Jovi talking about when he started shaking his behind at the audience and said, "Charlotte, how's this dancing?" Apparently, the aforementioned Charlotte Anderson had attended a Bon Jovi concert in New Jersey and told the singer that his "booty shaking" needed work.
