Billie Lourd’s wedding to fellow actor Austen Rydell was officiated by two important figures in her life: Gavin DeBecker and Bruce Wagner, best friends of late movie star Carrie Fisher.

Their key role in Lourd and Rydell’s nuptials — which took place over the weekend in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico — was just one of several ways the “Booksmart” star paid tribute to her mother, Fisher, and grandmother, silver screen icon Debbie Reynolds.

“Star Wars” legend Fisher died at age 60 on Dec. 27, 2016, immediately followed by the death of “Singin’ in the Rain” star Reynolds on Dec. 28 at age 84.

“It was the most hysterically brilliant and touching officiating in the history of officiating,” Lourd recently told Vogue magazine.

“And in true Carrie fashion, we threw glitter in the air at the end of the ceremony. It was magical. I could not have dreamed up a more perfect wedding.”

According to Vogue, Lourd also honored Fisher by wearing something old: her engagement ring — which contains a diamond from her mother’s engagement ring; something borrowed: a different ring Fisher gave to a friend; and something blue: Fisher’s favorite fire opal ring.

Even the “American Horror Story” player’s wedding dress — a custom white, off-the-shoulder Rodarte gown — was designed by two people Lourd found through her mother: Rodarte’s Kate and Laura Mulleavy.

“I discovered Kate and Laura after they interviewed my mom for an article in 2014 and immediately fell in love,” Lourd told Vogue.

To complete her look, the bride also paid homage to Fisher with her custom Rene Mancini shoes, which her father Eddie Fisher stumbled upon and recognized. By then, however, the wedding was only a month out, and Lourd was told the footwear would take four months to make.

Luckily, the manager of the store was able to make an exception for the family with a special connection to the shoe.

NEW YORK — CNN host Chris Cuomo is asking for $125 million from his former employer, claiming that his Dec. 4 termination was unlawful and that his former employer’s handling of the matter damaged to his reputation.

Cuomo’s attorneys filed a demand for arbitration Wednesday with the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation service, saying that CNN executives were fully aware that he was providing advice to his brother, the former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

The filing also asserts that CNN executives looked the other way in other circumstances when its stars allegedly ran afoul of the company’s standards and that they failed to deter the disparaging remarks made about Cuomo by CNN on-air talent, violating the terms of his contract.

While many of the details in the filing have been leaked to the press, the arbitration demand is the first legal action related to the scandal that led to the forced resignations of former CNN president Jeff Zucker and his longtime aide Allison Gollust.

In the investigation of Cuomo’s activities, Zucker revealed an undisclosed romantic relationship with Gollust, violating parent firm WarnerMedia’s company policy.

Cuomo, who had the most watched program on CNN in recent years, was in the hot seat for much of 2021, as reports revealed he advised his brother on how to handle sexual harassment complaints brought against him.

While CNN executives were aware of the consultations, they contended they did not know Chris Cuomo was in contact with the former governor’s staff, revealed in a report by New York State Attorney General Leticia James.

Selma Blair is giving the world a peek into her life with multiple sclerosis.

The “Cruel Intentions” and “Lost in Space” actress, 49, took to Instagram Tuesday to share a candid video of her life since being diagnosed with the disease, as a way tomark Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month.

“March is #MSAwareness month,” Blair captioned the post. “May we all find the strength to persevere.”

Among the clips in the video — for which she attached Zendaya and Labrinth’s “I’m Tired” track from “Euphoria” — are those of Blair in the hospital, receiving treatments, exhausted in bed, dancing, posing with her cane and spending time with her 10-year-old son, Arthur.

Blair was diagnosed with MS in 2018. She later told “Good Morning America” that she had been “giving it everything to seem normal.”

The actress, who had been experiencing a flare-up with the central nervous system disorder since her son’s 2011 birth, told ABC’s Robin Roberts in 2019 that she was “not taken seriously by doctors.”

She noted at the time that following the diagnosis, she “cried with some relief.

“Like, ‘Oh, good, I’ll be able to do something,’” Blair recalled.

In 2021, Blair announced ahead of her Discovery+ documentary, “Introducing Selma Blair,” that her multiple sclerosis was “in remission.”
