American Idol Loser Runner-Up Getting Married, Sends Out A Press Release About It!

Filed under: American Idol

ffwenn5259192.jpg

His career will never be as fruitful as the babe who beat him out in the first season of American Idol (Hi Kelly!), but at least his love life seems to have held up better than hers.

Justin Guarini will marry his high school sweetheart this weekend near their hometown in Pennsylvania. Ironically, it took several years after graduation for the two to start dating, but after two years, they are finally tying the knot.

His soon-to-be-wife, Reina Capodic, does come with some baggage - albeit cute baggage - a four year old daughter from a previous relationship, but it hasn't stopped him from looking forward to walking down the aisle. In fact, he'll even exchanging vows with the little one up at the alter.

The pair will have a "spiritual" service, in which they have written their own vows and will have an alternative string quartet playing a song selection from Radiohead, Paramore and Peter Gabriel.

Boy, this is going to be one interesting affair.

He describes the wedding as an "intimate family affair", but we wonder if that means the exclusion of some of his Idol buds.

Congrats, Justin. Enjoy life in Obscuria!

    Career? BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

    Perez you dipshit…how can they be "highschool sweethearts" when it took them a COUPLE OF YEARS TO START DATING? That makes absolutely no sense! Either they knew each other and dated in high school to be sweethearts or they knew each other and didn't date which would have made them simply friends during high school. Stupid is as stupid does I guess.

    How nice for him and how uninteresting for us…



  6. 6

    Okay, good for you Justin but people get married all the time. You're off the market…big deal!



  7. 7

    You alter a pair of pants. You get married at an altar.

    Perez, correct the spelling error:

    There's an "i" at the end of his fiancé's last name:
    Capodici



  9. 9

    no one cares about him or who he's marrying. Sorry Perez. Can you please concentrate on posting info about real celebs? this joke hasn't been on the radar since what 2001? Let's move on!

    I always assumed he was gay.

    press release for this no body? slow news day?

    Re: MyOpinionOnly – Exactly what I thought. Highschool sweethearts MEANS you were together during high school. Some marry right out of highschool, some marry few years later.. and some may find each other after years apart and then marry. But the term means you HAD to be together as a couple during highschool. Geezz.

    I've met Justin before and he happens to be one of the nicest guys in show business unlike some of the other American Idol contestants….(CLAY)!! Let's cut the guy some slack, he's getting married and has found happiness. Shouldn't we want that for everyone in life? Congratulations Justin.

    LOL is that Malcolm Gladwell?

    Re: MyOpinionOnly

    You're right. They weren't high school sweethearts. They started dating a couple of years ago, but have known each other since high school.



  16. 16

    If being a runner up makes one a loser, that means your buddy Adam Lambert is a loser.



  17. 17

    HE'S STRAIGHT?



  18. 18

    how is she his high schoool sweetheart if they started dating after graduating?? did i not read that right??



  19. 19

    Wait…I'm confused. Marrying his high school sweetheart…but they didn't start dating until several years after graduation? That's not a high school sweetheart. Congrats to them anyway.

    Re: Mad Dog – hahahahaha good one!!!



  21. 21

    i'd be interested to hear what paramore song they have on the playlist



  22. 22

    When did he get his nose done?

    I wish he hadn't faded to obscurity. I like him.

    Check your spelling…altar - not alter.



  24. 24

    Yat aystwci



  25. 25

    HEY! HE'S SUPPOSED TO MARRY ME!!
    Ok, kidding, i have my own future husband now, but i used to have this huge crush on him and even though he didn't do well in fame, he still had an awesome voice made for serenading and i've always wanted to run my fingers through his hair.
    Congrats Justin, you may have faded from the spot light but i'm still a fan and want you to be happy!
    That reminds me, i haven't seen that crappy American Idol movie in a long time, i think i'll watch it soon, i love watching bad movies.

    I don't understand the irony. How is it ironic that they started dating after graduating from high school? Irony is when a firefighter smokes in bed and burns his house down. It seems like whenever someone begins a sentence with "Ironically, . . . " I can be assured that what he's about to say is not ironic at all.



  27. 27

    HE'S MARRYING a WOMAN?



  28. 28

    He's one of the Marx Brothers right?

  32. 32

    He's marring a woman????? Oh she must need a sensitive man after her last relationship mess. Pathetic and weak.



  33. 33

    Re: Mad Dog – hahahahahaha….WORD!



  34. 34

    Somehow I must blame this on the conservative party of canada



  35. 35

    I always thought he was gay. Hmm.
