Married...Without Children Former Married...With Children star Christina Applegate and fiancé, actor Johnathon Schaech, tied the knot in Palm Springs. Close friends and immediate family members attended the outdoor ceremony. The two have been dating for the past four years and this is the first marriage for them both. Christina's most notable former beau is Christian Slater. It was 14 years ago when a 16-year-old Christina broke into Hollywood, starring as Kelly Bundy on the sitcom Married...With Children. After the show ended 10 years later, she hit the big screen with Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead and ended up back on television with her own sitcom, Jesse. Johnathon is a former model turned actor, starring in That Thing You Do! His upcoming project, Jesus and Judas will be released in 2002.

Serving Up Love Rumors surfaced back in January that Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf got hitched in Hawaii. The couple said it was news to them. This time it's true. No, really. Andre and Steffi proudly announced their Las Vegas nuptials this week. They exchanged vows in a private ceremony with only a few family members and friends in attendance. They've been dating for over two years and are expecting their first child in December. Andre was previously married to Brooke Shields.

Britney Hits Cyberspace Britney Spears and AOL Time Warner Inc. have partnered to promote Britney through AOL. The deal gives AOL's 31 million members exclusive access to Britney chats, music, videos and an early shot at concert tickets. The soon to be 20-year-old pop star is also donating $1 from all of her ticket sales to help the victims of the September 11 terrorist attacks. AOL Time Warner also houses Jewel and Madonna access. Members will be able to buy Britney concert tickets through AOL before they go on sale to the general public, as they recently did with Madonna's concert tour.

In related news, a book deal for Britney's beau, Justin Timberlake, fell through. And it's all her fault. Ballantine Books backed out of a deal to publish his book, Inside Drive: A Novel of Basketball, Life and Love. The publisher didn't want to pay out the seven-figures the deal called for because execs were afraid the book sales would be poor like they were for Britney's newest book. Justin may search for a new publisher.

Mariah Hits McBeal Okay, she's got the singing thing down pat. She tried the movie thing with no luck. And now she's trying TV. Mariah Carey will guest star on Ally McBeal. The episode is slated to air January 7. In it, Mariah is involved in a lawsuit filed after a woman (Jami Gertz) is deemed "unmatchable" by a matchmaking service. Jon Bon Jovi will also appear in the episode. He's signed a deal for multiple appearance's on Calista Flockhart's hit show.
