The Wonder Years's Danica McKellar Is Married

Danica McKellar, a mathematician and actress who played the beloved character on the hit TV show, tied the knot on Sunday with composer Mike Verta, her rep tells PEOPLE exclusively.

McKellar, 34, and Verta, 36, exchanged vows in an ocean-side church at sunset in La Jolla, Calif., in front of 150 guests, including the bride's sister and maid of honor, Crystal McKella, who played Becky Slater on The Wonder Years.

Also present were actors Dan Lauria and Allie Mills, who portrayed Kevin's (played by Fred Savage) parents on the show.

The bride wore a mermaid-style wedding gown and a tiara by Renee Strauss while the groom wore a tuxedo with tails and white gloves.

"We wanted an intimate, formal event," says McKellar, who walked down the aisle to wedding music composed by Verta and performed by members of the San Diego Symphony.

A reception followed at a private club, where guests enjoyed a sitdown dinner and dancing to a 10-piece band. The newlyweds danced their first dance to an original Sinatra-style love song written by Verta and performed by McKellar's uncle, Kim McCellar.

The couple started dating in 2001 and got engaged last August in Chicago.

McKellar, who graduated summa cum laude from UCLA with a BS in mathematics in 1998, is the author of two books: Math Doesn't Suck and Kiss My Math. She has also appeared on many other television shows including The West Wing.

Verta is an accomplished music composer for film and television. He also came up with the titles and designed the covers for both of McKellar's bestselling books.

Michael Jordan's son wins state championship

PEORIA, Ill. - Michael Jordan celebrated another Chicago basketball championship - his son's.

Marcus Jordan, son of the Bulls' six-time champion, scored a game-high 19 points to lead Chicago Whitney Young to a 69-66 victory over Waukegan in the Illinois Class 4A championship Saturday.

As Marcus Jordan and his teammates celebrated on the court after the final buzzer, Michael Jordan stood quietly, clapping his hands with tears in his eyes.

"Crying?" the NBA great said in response to a reporter's question. "I'm not crying. Not for me, anyway."

The younger Jordan was key down the stretch after two teammates fouled out, hitting four of four free throws in the final 3 minutes to seal the victory.

"Awesome," Marcus Jordan said. "Just awesome."

Michael Jordan, part-owner of the Charlotte Bobcats, skipped his team's home loss to Indiana so he could attend his son's game. Another son, Jeff Jordan, plays basketball for the University of Illinois.

David Letterman Ties the Knot

David Letterman and his longtime girlfriend, Regina Lasko, have gotten hitched, Usmagazine.com has learned.

The CBS Late Show host and Lasko tied the knot Thursday evening, a source tells Us.

In 2007, Letterman told Oprah Winfrey that his son Harry has made a "huge difference" in his life -- but the boy doesn't always get his daddy's sense of humor.

Said Letterman, "Mommy has to tell him a lot that I'm just teasing."

Letterman was previously married for seven years to his college sweetheart Michelle Cook.

Leanne Rimes' Hubby Dean Cheating with other man?

A new twist in the Leann Rimes Cheating Scandal - reports of her husband Dean Shermet dating a man.

According to sources, reports have now surfaced alleging that Leann Rimes has been in a sham marriage all along to ex-dancer Dean.

Despite denials and a finger sucking video surfacing of Leann and Eddie Cibrian, the two costars of a Lifetime flick, Lee Ann had steadfastly maintained her fidelity to Dean.

"He's gay. He's been gay since he was probably five," a source close to the family charged.

According to the reports, Dean's family used to take bets on what age he would come out, and then all of the sudden he got married to Leann!

Lee Ann is starring with Eddie in a Nora Roberts Lifetime movie and the PR flack-masters have been working overtime to juice this one.

David Cook asks his fans to stop stalking him and his band

ATTENTION! Hey everyone,
First off, I want to say thank you to everyone who has been coming out to the shows since my last post. The vibe at these shows has been amazing.

Secondly, I have to address some behavior that has become disturbing. We pride ourselves on being accessible to you as fans, but in contrast, we do enjoy what little privacy we can muster. To that end, the efforts by some fans to find our hotel rooms, call our hotel rooms, attach things to our bus, etc., is something I have to condemn. This relationship only works when it remains healthy for both parties, and should this behavior continue, the only thing we can do is take more preventative measures to maintain our privacy, which in turn makes us less accessible to you.

I hope this doesn't come off as harsh. I merely want to nip this in the bud so we can continue to have a great experience with all of you at the shows

Lance Armstrong crashed in Spain Race

Lance Armstrong, the seven-time winner of the Tour de France, crashed hard on Monday during the first stage of a five-day race in Spain and might have injured his right collarbone.A serious injury may jeopardize Armstrong's plans to ride in the Giro d'Italia in May. It would also hinder his training for the Tour de France, in July.

Armstrong and at least a dozen other riders tumbled from their bikes during the opening stage of the Vuelta a Castilla y Leon. Afterward, Armstrong was seen clutching his right shoulder on the roadside. Philippe Maertens, a spokesman for Armstrong's Team Astana, said Armstrong had been taken to a nearby hospital by ambulance.

The race was Armstrong's second competition in Europe after coming back from a three-and-a-half-year break from the sport. He raced in the one-day Milan-San Remo on Saturday, finishing 125th. He also raced in the Tour Down Under in Australia in January, finishing 64th, and the Tour of California last month, finishing 7th.

But this race was more than just any stage race. It was Armstrong's first competition alongside his teammate Alberto Contador, the winner of the 2007 Tour, as the two men vie to be the lead rider come the Tour de France.

Armstrong's injury, if severe enough, could answer the question of which rider will be the team's No. 1 at the Tour. A broken collarbone could be a serious injury if it goes beyond a simple fracture.

Team Garmin-Slipstream's David Millar, the former world time trial champion, broke his collarbone during the final stage of the Paris-Nice race. His joint had been broken in at least two pieces and the ligament had been torn off the bone.

Millar will be out for at least four weeks after having surgery on the collarbone last Thursday. He said he would resume training indoors as early as next week.
