Janet Jackson: Wedding was quiet, private

U.S. pop star Janet Jackson confirmed Monday she married Qatari businessman Wissam Al Mana last year. "The rumors regarding an extravagant wedding are simply not true. Last year, we were married in a quiet, private, and beautiful ceremony," the couple said in an exclusive statement to TV's "Entertainment Tonight." "Our wedding gifts to one another were contributions to our respective favorite children's charities. We would appreciate that our privacy is respected and that we are allowed this time for celebration and joy." No other details about the ceremony, such as where and when it took place, were immediately reported. Janet Jackson is a member of the Jackson musical dynasty, which included the late recording star Michael Jackson. Brothers Jermaine, Tito, Marlon and Jackie still perform together.

Oprah appears in Kimmel's star-studded trailer for faux 'Movie: The Movie 2V' sequel

Oprah Winfrey appeared in the star-studded trailer for "Movie: The Movie 2V," which premiered during Jimmy Kimmel's after-Oscars special in Los Angeles. Before introducing the new clip, Kimmel noted last year's fake trailer for "Movie: The Movie" -- the trailer for "the greatest motion picture ever not made" -- had been viewed online tens of millions of times. "When you have a big success in Hollywood, the only reasonable thing you can do is cheapen it with a sequel," he said. The 2013 followup featured sexy zombies, vampires and mummies, as well as A-list celebrities such as Samuel L. Jackson, Salma Hayek, Jessica Chastain, Channing Tatum, Rachel Weisz, John Krasinski, Amanda Seyfried, Bryan Cranston, Jude Law, Gerard Butler, Wolf Blitzer, Bradley Cooper, Halle Berry, Bruno Mars and Jason Schwartzman.
