Groom blasted for calling bride her sister’s name at wedding
Vowing to love, honor and obey the bride — and not her sister — is the name of game.
Nerves are known to get the best of some grooms in the minutes prior to taking the plunge. But when one jittery fella’s big day mistake, calling his wife-to-be another woman’s name, is a “f- -ked up” slip of the lip that the internet refuses to forgive.
“POV: You’re standing at the altar and your husband calls you the wrong name,” Emma, a newlywed based in Brisbane, wrote in the captions of a chaotic clip from her ceremony.
Footage of the nightmare nuptials, amassing over 2.2 million views, features her groom pledging his life and undying love to “Emily,” rather than to her, Emma.
“Plot twist,” the blonde added to the vid’s caption. “It’s my sister’s name. Still it over being called Emily at the altar.”
Now, seething social media savages want to alter the guy’s face — and worse.
“I’m going to have to kill him,” spat an incensed commenter.
“I’d have walked off and cancelled the wedding,” wrote another. “This is the most humiliating wedding outcome possible. I’m so sorry, girl.”
“Oh hell f- -king no,” barked an equally peeved spectator, while hundreds more likened the groom’s gaffe to that of fictional “Friends” character “Ross Geller,” portrayed by David Schwimmer, who infamously made a similar boo-boo while getting hitched.
“In all seriousness, if there’s any part of you that thinks maybe this is weird, you’re right,” a concerned onlooker noted, in part. “This is really strange, and sometimes it’s the simplest tells that reveal the biggest lies.”
But even the most glaring red flag warnings haven’t stopped other brides from saying “I Do” to potentially doomed futures.
From the gals who go with the flow after getting cake smushed in their faces, to the forgiving sweethearts who turn a blind eye to their groom and bridesmaid swapping physical flirtations, permissive ladies have overlooked a lot.
But experts warn that wedding day misconduct can serve as an omen for more sinister issues to come.
“While not every wedding day will be ‘perfect’, ideally, all parties involved look back on the day with good feelings and good memories,” Carly Dober, a psychologist, previously said in a statement regarding a groom who dunked his bride in a swimming pool.
“Behavior such as this can highlight the disparities in some heterosexual relationships where women’s feelings aren’t valued and they might not be respected by their partner,” cautioned the pro.
Emma, however, views her hubby’s hiccup as silly misspeak instead of wanton disrespect.
“If it was a random name I would have QUESTIONS,” she wrote in response to a commenter’s shock. “My sister is my best friend. I have no concerns.”

Chuck Lorre says Anna Faris’ exit from ‘Mom’ confirmed his casting concerns
Chuck Lorre suggested his reservations about Anna Faris starring in “Mom” had been “correct” when she left the show for “mysterious reasons.”
The co-creator of the hit CBS comedy reveals in his new memoir, “Sitcom,” that he was initially hesitant to cast Faris, 49, in the lead role, despite her being the network’s first choice to play Christy Plunkett.
“I wasn’t sure Anna would be appropriate for this kind of material,” Lorre, 73, writes in his book. “Then I thought about how badly I’d bungled my working relationship with Charlie Sheen.”
In his memoir, Lorre claims that Melanie Lynskey was “terrified” of Sheen while filming the final episode of “Two and a Half Men” ahead of the actor’s 2011 exit from the show.
He also writes that the cast and crew were in a “constant state of anxiety” around Sheen.
Sheen, 61, would later tell Lorre to “suck his f–king butt” during a radio show tirade over his “firing,” but the pair eventually mended their relationship when Lorre realized Sheen would be perfect for a role in his HBO comedy series “Bookie.”

Reflecting on his experience with Sheen, Lorre says he reconsidered his reservations about Faris, writing, “Someone’s personal life is none of my business. The mom in ‘Mom’ would be, and should be, Anna Faris.”
The “Scary Movie” actress went on to star alongside Allison Janney, who played Bonnie Plunkett, from 2013 to 2020, before exiting the series ahead of its eighth season.
“As the years went by, it became apparent that my initial reluctance to hire Anna was, in fact, correct,” Lorre writes in his memoir. “After six years, she left the show for mysterious reasons that were not mysterious to anyone on the show.”
Lorre praises the show’s later seasons, writing that “‘Mom’ found its true voice” by showing that “there is hope, and there is laughter in overcoming the seemingly fatal disease of alcoholism.”
He also criticizes CBS for canceling the series after eight seasons in 2021, writing, “CBS decided they could live without a perfect cast led by a national treasure. They canceled a show starring Allison Janney.”
Faris would later open up about her decision to leave “Mom” during a June appearance on the “Happy Sad Confused” podcast.
“I do think the intensity, like, towards the end, I think I started to lose my focus,” Faris said.
“I’d never had a job, besides waitressing, for over three and a half months before,” she added, noting that her decision to leave came during a “complicated time.”

Listen to Hayden Panettiere 911 call as Brian Hickerson’s brother desperately tries to save actress’ life
Zach Hickerson’s desperate attempts to save actress Hayden Panettiere’s life have been revealed in a a newly released 911 audio dispatch.
A 911 call, obtained by CBS News Wednesday, revealed Brian Hickerson’s brother called authorities in a panic after finding the “Heroes” alum unresponsive in an Airbnb in South Carolina on Aug. 16.
“Oh god, oh my god,” Zach — who said he had just returned from church when he found her — can be heard on the call before the dispatcher asked if Panettiere was breathing. “No, I don’t think so.”
The dispatcher instructed Zach to find a defibrillator, which he was unable to locate. He then confirmed the actress was not breathing.
“OK, we need to start CPR,” the dispatcher told Zach. “I’m going to tell you how to do CPR, OK? We’re gonna start with ventilation first.”
Zach proceeded to perform the life-saving measures on Panettiere until first responders arrived and took over.
The “I Love You Beth Cooper” star was pronounced dead at the scene at 2:32 p.m. local time. She was 36.
Additionally, a police report previously obtained by Page Six revealed Brian, who was involved in an on-again, off-again relationship with Panettiere since 2018, gave officers a “bag of medication” she had been taking.
Page Six confirmed that Panettiere died from the toxic effects of 4-ANPP, fentanyl, methocarbamol, alprazolam and quetiapine.
Her manner of death was ruled an accident, with “no signs of trauma were discovered that would have contributed to the death.”
Hayden’s death was confirmed by her father, Skip Panettiere, via a statement that same day.
“She was an incredible light and a force of nature who brought immeasurable love and joy to all who knew her — and to the millions who watched her onscreen,” he wrote. “We ask for privacy as our family takes time to process this unimaginable loss.”
Ahead of her death, Hayden was candid about her ongoing addiction to opioids and alcohol, and her journey with postpartum depression.
The “Nashville” alum recalled in 2015 the “really scary” and “painful” experience after she gave birth to her and her then-fiancé Wladimir Klitschko’s now 11-year-old daughter, Kaya.
“There’s a lot of misunderstanding — there’s a lot of people out there that think it’s not real, that’s it not true, that it’s something that’s made up in their minds, that, ‘Oh, it’s hormones,’” she shared on a vulnerable episode of “Live with Kelly and Michael.”
“They brush it off. It’s something that’s completely uncontrollable. It’s really painful and it’s really scary and women need a lot of support.”
Ultimately, Hayden’s battle with addiction led to her engagement with Klitschko ending in 2018, and her giving full custody of Kaya to her ex.
“It was the hardest thing I ever had to do,” Hayden said in 2022, per People. “But I wanted to be a good mom to her — and sometimes that means letting them go.”
According to a Greenville County Coroner’s Office obtained by Page Six, Hayden had allegedly overdosed and entered rehab before she died.

Kaley Cuoco gives birth to second baby with fiancé Tom Pelphrey
Kaley Cuoco and fiancé Tom Pelphrey’s second child has arrived.
The “Big Bang Theory” alum gave birth to baby No. 2, a girl named Philomena Carmine Bobby, on Monday, three years after welcoming daughter Matilda.
“There are no words to describe this feeling once again,” Cuoco, 40, wrote on Instagram Wednesday, alongside photos of the couple with their newborn daughter.
“What a blessing,” she continued. “We are so grateful for the crazy wild up and down journey that brought us to our little Philo! Family officially complete 😭Time to bring Matilda’s baby home! 😂💕.”
Cuoco also wrote that Pelphrey’s “life exploded the minute we met, and the gifts keep coming.”
“I love you forever, girl daddy,” she concluded her post.
The actress announced her pregnancy news — and the little one’s sex — in a June Instagram post.
“completing our little family , what a dream come true ! 💖” Cuoco captioned the social media upload at the time.
“This second time around journey has been a little windier in many ways, but wow we are so grateful for this moment!!” she continued. “Little sissy on the way!!!”
The “Flight Attendant” star concluded by dubbing her partner a “girl dad for life.”
She and Pelphrey, 44, have been an item since 2022.
The duo, who share the same management team, started dating on the heels of Cuoco’s divorce from second husband Karl Cook.
Before marrying the equestrian in 2018, Cuoco was married to tennis star Ryan Sweeting from 2013 to 2016.
Five months after going public with Pelphrey, Cuoco revealed she and the “Ozark” alum were starting a family.
Matilda was born in March 2023, with the new mom gushing, “Overjoyed and grateful for this little miracle. … @tommypelphrey didn’t think I could fall even more in love with you, but I did.”
The following year, Pelphrey proposed to the Emmy nominee — despite her previously swearing off ever walking down the aisle again.
“Amazing weekend,” the bride-to-be wrote alongside her August 2024 engagement ring debut.
Cuoco subsequently teased to People that “maybe another kid” would “come first” before they walked down the aisle.
The “Meet Cute” star, who had yet to “start planning anything” for their nuptials, quipped, “We’re gonna go way out of order. That’s our plan.”
