Jewel Archives

Platinum-selling singer Jewel Kilcher eloped with her longtime boyfriend, rodeo champion Ty Murray, in the Bahamas during a private ceremony Thursday night.

“She wore a traditional wedding gown, while Ty wore his favorite blue jeans, white shirt and cowboy hat,” Jewel’s rep tells People. “The couple is very happy and look forward to enjoying their honeymoon.”

Jewel, 34, and Ty, 38, have been together for ten years and live together at a ranch in Stephenville, Texas.

Congrats to the happy couple!

Jimmy Fallon and Jewel both walked the red carpet together at the movie premiere of Arthur and the Invisibles in NYC earlier today. Jimmy lends his voice talent as chubby, rubber troll Betameche and Jewel sings on the soundtrack. (Madonna and David Bowie’s voices also made the movie… and Snoop Dogg is also featured on the soundtrack.)

Arthur and the Invisibles opens nationwide on Jan 12. Just a warning: RottenTomatoes.com has a lousy 20% fresh rating for this film. Pictured above: co-stars Mia Farrow and Freddie Highmore. Pictured below: movie mogul Harvey Weinstein

Jewel is seen pictured here with country singer Cowboy Troy. Both will be co-hosting Nashville Star, the country music singing competition. The fifth season of Nashville Star premieres on Thursday, Jan. 11 @ 10PM ET/PT on USA Network.

Other pictures include Jewel performing at the American Civil Liberties Union Bill of Rights dinner and silent auction held at the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel last night in Beverly Hills, Calif.

No exclusive interview. Tear, tear. Jewel arrived earlier this afternoon with an entourage of eight, quickly swooping in and out of Herald Square, where Jewel performed a three song set — “Hands,” “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing,” and “Silent Night.”

It was nearly 70 degrees out and Jewel was wearing a long, thick winter coat. Jewel anticipated it being a bit colder out and said, “I’m gonna sweat. But I don’t care!” Video below… “Hands” and “Silent Night” after the jump!

Regular posting will resume later this afternoon. I’m headed off to watch 3 time Grammy-nominated songstress Jewel give a holiday performace in a decked-out outdoor Winter Wonderland at Herald Square!

I might be able to interview her, so if you’ve got a question for her, leave it here and I’ll see what I can do.

Watch this space around 12:20PM EST. I’ve never tried it before, but I’ll be photo-blogging and video-blogging directly from the concert.

P.S. I sat next to Friends‘ Lisa Kudrow at Cookshop in Chelsea last night. We ordered the same appetizer dish: Fresh Florida shrimp, green garlic, speckled grits & chili oil (F&W’s got a similar recipe here).

P.P.S. Thanks benitodelicias for the correction!
