Entertainment on Parade

Bette Midler has received a gift from Las Vegas. No, no, I don’t mean her Caesar’s Palace show “Bette Midler: The Showgirl Must Go On,” I am speaking of her wedding photos.

It was 24 years ago that Bette tied the knot with artist Martin von Haselberg in the Starlight Chapel. The two were married in a quickie ceremony conducted by an Elvis impersonator. But, Bette never got any wedding pictures.

That is until now. Earlier this month, after the Starlight Chapel shutdown, the owner came apparently came across the photos and sent them to Bette. “We were shocked,” the Divine Miss M said after receiving the photos.

To receive the pictures after all these years is nice, but I think it is nice to see a celebrity still married 24 years later – talk about a shock!
