Jack White Of 'White Stripes' Marries Model Karen Elson - In An Amazon Canoe Ceremony

Zellwedder's-ex boyfriend wasted little time responding to her surprise wedding with one of his own. Jack White, lead singer of the White Stripes, on the cusp of 'promoting' a new album release (hmmm.) announces that he and british supermodel Karen Elson exchanged wedding vows on an Amazon river in a canoe. It's really quite brilliant. No catering, no floral arrangements, no booze, no band, no invitations = no stress, well, as long as snake bites don't bug ya. Nice wedding for Jack and Karen. Me? Not so much.

Per the website account, a traditional shaman priest performed the canoe-based ceremony "on the confluence of three rivers -- in the Amazon basin in the city of Manaus.'' It was a White Stripe wedding all around, with drummer-vocalist Meg White serving as maid of honor and manager Ian Montone acting as best man before a 'small party of close friends.'"

White's wedding is even more startling than the Zellweger-Chesney shocker that went down May 9, as news that he was even dating Elson had hardly registered in gossip pages or the music press. (She does, however, appear in the new White Stripes video, Blue Orchid, in which she's covered with snakes.)
