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.

"She stole Cold Mountain from Nicole Kidman."

I agree with this statement, with however, a caveat. Kidman is a beautiful and talented actress, but she was grossly miscast in the part she played in Cold Mt. She is way too glamourus for that part. It just wasn't right for here. Imagine Ingrid Bergman or Lauren Bacall in the part. Wouldn't work. Zigweiler is more of a Kate Hepburn type which is why she fit right in.

The problem was compounded by Kidman's costumes which were so perfect, and therefore so contrived, that she looked ridiculous (to me anyway) at times.

Despite that, it was still a good movie, and Kidman did a respectable job in a part she never should have had.

so is Shania Twain and there is absolutely NOTHING country about her!

Well, that's true, but it has nothing to do with being Canadian. There's nothing country about Faith Hill in the last ten years, and she's from Fleaspeck, KY, or wherever.

She was great in Jerry Maguire

Also the Bridget Jones' Diary movies. Very funny if you enjoy British comedy. Although she's not British she does a great accent.

The girl is Terri Clark, a country music singer, and she is on this thread because she is Canadian. She is also 6 feet tall, fwiw.
