Musical Interlude: My Almost-Husband, Paul McCartney

August 12, 2016 by WendyB

Last Sunday, my real-life husband, MrB, accompanied me to MetLife Stadium in New Jersey to see my almost-husband, Paul McCartney, in concert. I wore the t-shirt I got at the Cavern Club in Liverpool in 2014. I didn’t take a full outfit photo, but here’s a candid picture of my face during the almost-three-hour-long show….

More Stevie Nicks, Plus Kanye, Rihanna and Paul McCartney

January 24, 2015 by WendyB

In yesterday’s post about this week’s Fleetwood Mac concert at Madison Square Garden, I mentioned that gorgeous Instagrammer Carrie Courogen was soooo front-row that she played Lindsey Buckingham’s guitar. Twice. Because I already posted the guitar picture, here’s a nice shot Carrie got of Stevie Nicks. The perfect halo of gold hair and lightning. A…

Happy Birthday to Paul McCartney; Outfits for Ringo

June 18, 2014 by WendyB

Happy birthday to my almost-husband, Paul McCartney! He turns the big SEVEN-TWO today. When I was 13, I desperately wanted to marry Paul, who was inconveniently married to Linda at the time. I subdued my jealousy by telling myself that it would never work out between us, even if he got divorced (and divorce was…

The Unseen Paul McCartney and the Photobombing MrB

March 4, 2014 by WendyB

Last night, I had the horrifying realization that my almost-husband Paul McCartney was at the Vanity Fair Oscar party on Sunday and — somehow — I didn’t see him. Best!Party!Ever! turned into Worst!Missed!Opportunity!Ever! in the blink of an eye. I started desperately searching for information about what time Macca and his lovely wife arrived at…

My Almost-Husband Paul McCartney Is 70

June 18, 2012 by WendyB

I can’t let the day go by without wishing a happy 70th birthday to my almost-husband Paul McCartney. I totally would have married the guy, but I have a thing for younger men and MrB doesn’t turn 70 till August. Call me shallow! But, seriously, I like what McCartney had to say about age in…

My Almost-Husband Paul McCartney Is a Husband

October 10, 2011 by WendyB

Congratulations to my almost-husband Paul McCartney for marrying the nice-seeming and very attractive Nancy Shevell. I think she’s perfect for him because she: doesn’t have a resume of crazy. can presumably tolerate annoying thumb activity, pot and the word “veggie.” Speaking of Paul, the New York Times called him “impossibly charming” in the Martin Scorsese…

My Almost-Husband Paul McCartney to Wed Nancy Shevell

May 6, 2011 by WendyB

Yesterday, at the benefit luncheon for the Trust for the National Mall (to which I wore my Alexander McQueen suit), I had a enjoyable and completely biased chat with a woman at my table about how the third time’s the charm when it comes to wives. In our experience, men who have been married twice…
