People Launches TomKat Wedding Blog

Posted on November 17, 2006

The upcoming wedding between Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes is such a huge celebrity story that People magazine has launched a Tom and Katie Wedding Blog (note: the blog is no longer available).

Could this become a trend? Huge celebrity events getting their own blogs from major entertainment media outlets? Blogging is a good way to cover breaking news events. The blog is full of information about the weddings numerous celebrity guests including Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy, JLo and Marc Anthony and Brooke Shields.

Don't expect any Oprah pictures -- she wasn't invited. Is Tom trying to say his couch jumping incident was somehow Oprah Winfrey's fault?

There is considerable coverage from non-People bloggers as well. Any event that mixes big stars, scientology, a wedding ceremony and a haunted castle deserves heavy blog coverage. Today provides a photograph of the castle and explains what Isabella de Medici used to do with the lovers she became bored with.
