my friend does the best imitation of him! She sounds so much like him, its kinda freaky. :lol:

...wait, i missed the wedding! :o

...i completely forgot it was this week. any chance of a repeat? probably not, right?

I'd say it's highly unlikely that it'll be re-aired. I think airing a wedding once is all you really need.

Gay 'Amazing Race' Contestants Win At Altar

(Ottawa) They lost out on a million dollar prize rushing across the map on 'The Amazing Race', but Alex Ali and Lynn Warren got the big prize Wednesday - they were legally married in Canada.

 

Hundreds of people showed up early Wednesday morning in Ottawa to see the gay couple from West Hollywood as they entered the conference hall where Canada's Constitution was written.

 

In a meeting room that had been decorated like a wedding chapel, the pair exchanged vows as the ceremony was broadcast live on a local radio station. It is believed it was the first time that a same-sex wedding has been broadcast live anywhere in the world.

 

The wedding was the brainchild of radio station Hot 89.9 which picked up the whole tab - including the flight, honeymoon suite, and bachelor party.

 

For the radio station it meant a huge audience for its morning show. For Ottawa businesses it meant a giant PR boost for tourism. But, for Alex and Lynn it was much, much more - the chance to be legally husband and husband.

 

"Getting married is much more thrilling than Amazing Race because the prize at the end is true love, and happy life ever after," a beaming Warren told CTV shortly after marrying Ali.

 

"It was very emotional because it was very real," Warren said of the ceremony. "And it's something that we've been waiting for years and years."

 

The pair told a press conference later that every gay couple unable to marry in the United States should come to Canada.

 

"It's a big world. Come to Canada, come to Ottawa and have a beautiful wedding and celebrate your love. And be with people who celebrate instead of tolerate," Warren said.

 

For Ali the ceremony was especially emotional. He only came out to his father when he and Warren were chosen to compete on 'Amazing Race'. His father, who lives in Egypt, promptly disowned him. Several relatives who live in the US, including one of his older sisters were more supportive and attended today's ceremony.

 

Warren's brother Stephen and about 40 friends also flew in for the wedding.

 

Also in attendance were Race winners Joyce and Uchenna Agu and fellow contestants Gretchen Smith, Bianca Smith and Debbie Cloyd and mother and son team Patrick and Susan Vaughn.
