LOS ANGELES - Oscar-winning actress Renee Zellweger and country music star Kenny Chesney were married Monday in a small ceremony on the island of St. John in the U.S. Virgin Islands, a publicist for Zellweger said.

The ceremony took place in front of close friends and family, Los Angeles-based publicist Nanci Ryder said in a statement. The bride wore a Carolina Herrera dress, she added.

It was the first marriage for both.

The couple met at the Concert of Hope tsunami relief benefit Jan. 15, where Chesney was singing and Zellweger was answering telephones, the syndicated TV show "The Insider" reported.

Chesney, 37, lives on St. John, while Zellweger, who turned 36 two weeks ago, is from Katy, Texas.

Zellweger won a best supporting actress Oscar in 2004 for "Cold Mountain." She was nominated for Oscars for her work in "Chicago" and "Bridget Jones's Diary."

Chesney currently has two albums on Billboard's top 10 country albums chart, and his single "Anything But Mine" is No. 6 on the magazine's hot country songs list.

Chesney was named Country Music Association entertainer of the year in November, and his "When The Sun Goes Down" was named album of the year. His other hits include "Me and You" and "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy."

According to Country Weekly magazine, Chesney long ago named Zellweger as his favorite actress and was inspired to write his 1999 hit "You Had Me From Hello" after seeing her in "Jerry Maguire."

Zellweger appeared at a recent Chesney concert in Jacksonsville, Fla., presenting him with a margarita and a kiss on stage, Country Weekly magazine reported.

Zellweger has dated White Stripes singer Jack White and "Me, Myself & Irene" co-star Jim Carrey.

You must not have seen the movie Chicago. Zellweger was the blond girl Roxie Hart.

Well, now that you gave me the name of a character that she played in a movie I've never seen it's all clear as a bell! Thanks.

Seriously though, the last movie I saw with her in it was the one with Chris Rock and Morgan Freemen called "Nurse Betty".

Chesney is loved by University of Tennessee fans for his song "Touchdown Tennessee" honoring former play-by-play announcer John Ward. Kenny is also is great friends with our hero Peyton Manning.

TOUCHDOWN TENNESSEE
With a voice you could hear all the way to Rocky Top
Play by play for 31 years it never stopped
We heard 20, 15, 10 and 5
Your voice was our eyes and we could see Touchdown Tennessee
Quarterback rolled right
It was a long throw down field to Willie Gault
For a second no one knew if it was caught
Then we heard 20, 15, 10 and 5
Your voice was our eyes and we could see Touchdown Tennessee
Your voice painted us a picture
Of all the losses and the wins
And its so hard to imagine
A game without your voice again
Saying 20, 15, 10 and 5
Your voice was our eyes and we could see Touchdown Tennessee
So thank you John
What a run, its been fun for us all
Oh the way our hearts pounded when you called 20, 15, 10 and 5
Your voice was our eyes and we could see Touchdown Tennessee

Shelby Lynn and her sister Allison Moore were traumitized while children as their father murdered their mother and then killed himself. They're from Clark County Alabama - I met Shelby years ago in Wash, DC and when I was introduced to her, said "Conceived in Jackson Alabama - born in Grovehill Alabama" - she cracked up! These are two cities (dots in the road of Clark County)and then I told her that my mother had dated her uncle in High School...small world, huh?

Interesting. I thought Renee Z. was a big contributor to liberal Dem. politicians. I believe that Kenny C. is a solid Republican, and appeared at the Republican National Convention. Guess love conquers all...let's hope so. They are both very talented, likeable personalities. I wish them luck.
