Johansson, Reynolds marry in Canada

Los Angeles – Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds did a little rushing into it after all.

The couple were married last weekend, according to publicist Meredith O’Sullivan.

Us Weekly reported on its Web site Sunday that the small wedding took place at a resort outside Vancouver, British Columbia. Guests included Johansson’s mother, Melanie Sloan, and her brother, Adrian Johansson, the magazine said.

The couple announced their engagement in May.

“We’re just enjoying our time,” the actress said last month. “We’re just recently – very recently – engaged. So, you know, we’re just taking it easy. And no big plan yet. But it’s a good time and we’re just : enjoying our time to be young and engaged. I mean, I’m 23. There’s no reason to rush into it.”

Heather Locklear arrested on DUI count

Montecito, Calif. – Heather Locklear was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of a controlled substance in the upscale Santa Barbara area, authorities said Sunday.

Locklear, 47, was pulled over by a California Highway Patrol officer Saturday afternoon after a resident reported seeing the actress leaving a parking lot and “driving erratically,” patrol spokesman Tom Marshall said.

The officer noticed Locklear’s car parked on a state highway and blocking a lane in Montecito, a wealthy community about 90 miles northwest of Los Angeles.

“In talking with her, (the officer) determines that she seems to be under the influence of something,” Marshall said.

Locklear was taken to the police station, where she was tested for alcohol and drugs. She was booked at 7 p.m. on suspicion of driving under the influence of prescription medication. She was later released.

Fey reprises Palin role

New York – Tina Fey reprised her role as Sarah Palin on “Saturday Night Live,” again appearing as the Republican vice presidential candidate in an opening sketch.

Saturday night’s show – the third of the season for the NBC comedy program – brought back the season premiere tandem of Fey and Amy Poehler, who opened the season with a memorable sketch featuring Fey as Palin and Poehler as Hillary Clinton.

This time around, Poehler played CBS’s Katie Couric, parodying the interview with Palin earlier this week. Poehler, though, mostly played straight man to Fey, who ratcheted up her performance of Sen. John McCain’s running mate by satirizing her foreign affairs experience.

When Poehler’s Couric pushed Fey’s Palin to specifically discuss how she would help facilitate democracy abroad, Fey gave in: “Katie, I’d like to use one of my lifelines. : I want to phone a friend.”

When a confused Poehler informed her that that wasn’t how the interview worked, Fey’s Palin responded – alluding to one of the governor’s most quoted lines from the interview – “Well, in that case, I’m just gonna have to get back to ya.”
