One-Time Ring Bearer Marries Flower Girl… 17 Years Later

Adrian and Brooke Franklin recently got married at a church in South Gastonia, North Carolina.


No, in and of itself, that fact is not especially interesting.


But here"s the thing: Adrian and Brooke first met in that same church 17 years ago, when they served as ring bearer and flower girl at the same wedding.


"I had a crush on him from the start," Brooke tells the town"s local affiliate ABC11 of Adrian, who she met when both were five.


"He absolutely could not stand me. He said I got on his nerves. I"d tried to play with him at school and at church and he just didn"t want much to do with me at all."


The pair went through elementary and middle school together before clicking romantically in high school.


Among their guests at their September nuptials? The bride from the wedding where they first met. Crazy, right?!?


"We forgot that we were in the wedding together and she brought the photos to us," Brooke says. "She just thought that was the neatest thing. She was really excited."


Heck, we"re really excited! And we don"t even know you!

Lindsay Lohan Posts Makeup-Free Selfie, Remains Freckly

Lindsay loves to take selfies.


Unfortunately, Lindsay likes to use Photoshop to alter her selfies, because she apparently thinks her Instagram followers are just as coke-addled and unable to spot a fraudulent thigh gap as she is.


Perhaps the fact that the Internet is constantly making fun of Lohan’s horrendous Photoshop skills (She’s really quite bad at retouching.) has inspired her to go in the opposite direction and jump on the makeup-free selfie bandwagon:



Yes, nude Lindsay Lohan photos are nothing new, but nude-faced Lohan is something we haven’t seen in quite some time.



Remarkably, it looks as though she’s holding up quite well. We’re a bit surprised because:


  1. One she’s been treating her body like a pharmaceutical testing lab for at least the past decade, and 

  2. Sources say Lohan has been partying harder than ever since finally being released from probation.

But hey, we guess never stepping outside during the daytime for your entire adult like will help you avoid those harmful UV rays.


It also doesn’t hurt that Lindsay cranked up the lighting on this to give her that wrinkle-free, washed-out Nosferatu look.


Anyway, we’re just talking smack. The girl looks good, and whether that means she’s taking better care of herself or just that she’s learned how to hide her flaws without resorting to retouching, we’ve gotta give props where they’re due.


Little Girl is CRUSHED That Adam Levine is Married

Adam Levine married Behati Prinsloo way back in June of 2014.


But it took one mother over a year to break this news to her daughter, likely because she knew how the little girl would react.


It"s unclear why this tragic piece of information was just passed along to young Mila, but it is clear that she is Levine"s biggest fan.


"I don’t want you to be too sad, but I was going to tell you… Adam Levine got married,” the girl’s mom says from the front seat of the car in this footage.


“Noooo. No mommy! No he didn’t mommy! Mommy, he didn’t!” Mila replies.


The poor, cute little thing. We"re not exaggerating how crushed she is to learn that Levine is taken. See for yourself here.
