Star can exclusively reveal that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, who are expecting twins this summer, tied the knot during an intimate wedding ceremony in the couple's adopted city of New Orleans, Louisiana on Saturday afternoon.

As Star has reported, Brad had long wanted the ceremony to take place in the city devastated by Hurricane Katrina, while Angelina preferred a small, intimate ceremony in France. The now husband and wife, along with their four children, are expected to return to Texas, where Brad is currently filming Tree of Life.

This is the second trip down the aisle for Brad, who ended his five-year marriage to Jennifer Aniston shortly after meeting Angelina on the set of their 2005 film Mr. & Mrs. Smith. Twice-married Angelina divorced actors Jonny Lee Miller in 1999 and Billy Bob Thornton in 2003 after three-year marriages to each.

KURT Cobain's mother and sister might lose their homes because of two thieves who bilked his estate of more than $200 million, claims his widow, Courtney Love.

Earlier this month, Love made accusations against an alleged con man and con woman who can't be identified until court papers are filed. Love said they used Cobain's Social Security number to open up more than 188 credit cards in his name and refinance several homes - including Kurt's mother's, Wendy Fradenburg Cobain O'Connor.

"It's insane," Love cried in one of several ranting voice-mail messages she left us. "In Kurt's will, his mom was left 15 percent of his estate - the rest went to me and [daughter] Frances Bean. But we had to wait until the estate closed and probate was over. But it's been open 14 years! It's criminal."

An irate, shouting Love said she met the alleged con artists years ago through friends. Since then, she learned they have bought homes in New Jersey and upstate New York, taken private planes to and from Westchester and bought convalescent homes.

"I don't expect in a recession Americans to feel sorry for a person who's lost about $200 million, but this is nuts. I had [only] a $500 limit on my ATM card for years," Love said.

"Kurt's mother's home is in arrears and his sister Kim's home was repossessed by the bank . . . Investigators found 62 bank accounts I never opened. His mom should have $163 million by now with amortization from her part of the will. It's so frustrating. I was promised [by financial managers and lawyers] that 'before a penny drops in the wrong direction, we will be there. You will never be embezzled from.' I was.

"My own house was refinanced four times. I have never done this. I've owned one Toyota and one Prius in my life. There are auto loans on Kurt's [Social Security number] for a Mercedes and a Bentley. Someone applied online and got 27 American Express cards and 74 Visas on Kurt's Social [Security number]. Everything has been forged. There is a piece of paper with a forged signature where I supposedly declared myself incompetent and they took over everything."

Things got so bad that at one point, Love says, "I tried to commit suicide and went to rehab. I'm better now and the FBI in Orange County [Calif.] and Scotland Yard are handling this."

freely admits to having unconventional taste in men. "I don't have crushes on cute guys. I have really bizarre taste in men," she tells the latest issue of UK Elle. "You know what the common ground is? Brains. I like witty and funny. I always love writers." But, Hudson says, her son, Ryder, is her "little man. He's the love of my life right now. And I have Chris [Robinson]." Hudson spoke fondly of her ex, saying they didn't have a "traditional marriage" - "It's about being a family forever - and we are. Whatever man I end up with, I will always love Chris."

Squeezed into a fluorescent green superhero suit, Jack Black opened Nickelodeon's 21st Annual Kids' Choice Awards by singing a wacky ode to the wonders of slime, playing the bongos and finishing off with a swift karate chop that demolished a stack of cinder blocks.

"Welcome to the slimiest, starriest, 'choiciest' awards show -- ever!" Black yelled to an auditorium filled with screaming children.

Yes, welcome to the kiddie Oscars, where Nickelodeon viewers vote for their favorite winners and the Slime Meter tallies the madness of the evening. This year, in fact, 88 million votes were clocked on the Nickelodeon website, Black announced.

Jessica Alba won favorite movie actress, the first prize of the evening. She accepted her blimp trophy from Janet Jackson and actor Josh Bell.

"I love Nickelodeon! I wore green today in honor of the slime," Alba said. "I love making movies for you all."

The Jonas Brothers won the Kids' Choice for favorite music group. The three brother act from New Jersey arrived on stage in pastel suits and accepted the award from "Ugly Betty" actress America Ferrera and Emile Hirsch, who stars in the upcoming Warner Brothers movie "Speed Racer."

Surprise box office champ Miley Cyrus, star of the 3-D film "Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour," picked up favorite female singer. (Guests James Marsden and Hayden Panettiere pulled the winning envelope from beneath a dirty, gooey toenail on a giant foot.)

Tabloid-friendly couple Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz joked about sharing eyeliner before revealing "American Idol" won the favorite reality show. The award was collected by "Idol" host Ryan Seacrest.

Chris Brown, singer of the hit "Kiss Kiss" (featuring T-Pain), collected favorite male singer and thanked his label Jive Records, his mom and "all the ladies."

"Punk'd" creator Ashton Kutcher, dressed in a snazzy tuxedo, presented Nickelodeon's Wannabe Award. Akin to the Academy Awards' Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award, the Wannabe is given each year to the best celebrity role model or inspiration.

This year the honor went to actress Cameron Diaz. She asked the kids in the audience to whisper, and then scream, "We are the future! And the future is bright!"

After an announcer encouraged viewers to "burp the belch fantastic," Will Smith, with his children Jaden and Willow, introduced a musical performance by Cyrus who sang "G.N.O. - Girl's Night Out."

Pop artist Rihanna, and elastic actor Brendan Fraser, who stars in New Line's upcoming "Journey to the Center of the Earth" 3-D, presented a double win to the Nickelodeon series "Josh and Drake," which picked up favorite TV show and favorite TV actor. That award went to series star Josh Bell.

"The Office" star Steve Carell and "Saturday Night Live's" Weekend Update co-host Amy Poehler opened the envelope for favorite movie. The animated hit "Alvin and the Chipmunks" beat out "The Transformers," "Are We Done Yet?" and "The Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End."

Providing a brief interlude between award presentations was "Project Runway" host Heidi Klum. The fashion personality donned a "slime butt belt" and soared through the air aiming her backside at an enormous target covered with slime balloons.

"There goes one brave supermodel!" Black enthused.

Sure, the first person you think of is Dane Cook. With his blend of vagina jokes, date-rapey fans, and factory-distressed jeans, guy's a total douche cocktail. But what about Carlos Mencia? How can a man tell a retard joke that doesn't make me laugh? To celebrate March Madness, radio jocks "Toucher & Rich" on Boston's WBCN are whittling down a list of 16 lames to see who will emerge as "The Unfunniest Comic."

Here are the current standings. Is Robin Williams really less entertaining than Jeff Foxworthy? And what the hell's Paula Poundstone doing in there? Is she still even working? (Oh, here's a bigger version.) I've never listened to "Toucher and Rich," but I thought this chart was awesome. So screw those dudes—what do you think?

In related news, Cook's old comedy pals seem to be turning on him. I heard about this contest on "Opie and Anthony" yesterday, where actually funny comedian Mike Birbiglia plugged an upcoming gig by saying, "I am the Dane Cook of comedy." Ha!
