Last week was Saint Patrick\u2019s Day \u2013 a big holiday in Boston.  For some reason, pop star Ed Sheeran <\/strong>was in town.  So what do you do in Boston on Saint Patrick\u2019s Day?  You go to an Irish pub.  Sheeran went to The Dubliner <\/em>wearing a green and white Celtics <\/em><\/strong>jersey and jacket.  He played several songs with folk band Beoga<\/em><\/strong>, including \u201cShape of You\u201d, \u201cI Don\u2019t Care\u201d, \u201cNancy Mulligan\u201d, \u201cGrace\u201d, and ended the set with \u201cGalway Girl\u201d.  You can check out the performance on BillyMasters.com<\/u><\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

In one of those transitions that you\u2019ll only find in a Billy Masters <\/strong>column, Irish tae kwon do Olympian<\/em> Jack Woolley <\/strong>got engaged on Saint Patrick\u2019s Day.  This is relevant because he is hot, gay and obviously is engaged to another hot, gay man.  Woolley\u2019s also been in the news since he just finished second on Ireland\u2019s Dancing with the Stars<\/em><\/strong> last week.  Shortly after the finale, he proposed to Daithi Murphy<\/strong>.  Here\u2019s a fun fact \u2013 proving that hot Olympians are just like the rest of us, Jack and Daithi\u2019s first date was in a McDonald\u2019s <\/em>parking lot.  Oh, the memories that brings back \u2013 fumbling around in a bucket seat, the pungent smell of exhaust in the air, and someone asking, \u201cWould you like to super-size that?\u201d  A moment of enchantment they can share with the kiddies…eventually.<\/p>\n

In some stateside romance, two Las Vegas male strippers got engaged.  Davis Taylor Rahal <\/strong>is a \u201cdancer\u201d in the Magic Mike<\/em><\/strong> show.  Last weekend, he stopped the show midway to bring his beau onstage.  Shay H <\/strong>is a \u201cdancer\u201d with the ever-popular Thunder from Down Under<\/em><\/strong>.  \u201cThis year has been filled with joy, laughter, love, and adventure,\u201d said Davis \u2013 which he followed by saying those four magic words.  No, not \u201cyour Visa was declined.\u201d  He said, \u201cWill you marry me?\u201d  Shay, obviously a man of few words, nodded, the couple kissed, and everyone applauded.  \u2018Cause nothing makes horny suburban straight women on vacation happier than to see two hot men kiss!<\/p>\n

Proving that marriage isn\u2019t limited to gay folk, attorney Steve Mitchel <\/strong>took a bridle.  I\u2019m sorry \u2013 he took a BRIDE.  It\u2019s an honest mistake when the bride is Melissa Rivers<\/strong>!  Joan<\/strong>\u2019s little filly got back into the saddle at the Four Seasons <\/em>in cowboy country, Jackson Hole, Wyoming.  The wedding was officiated by Sabrina Lott-Miller<\/strong>, Joan\u2019s longtime assistant.  Missy\u2019s son Cooper <\/strong>gave the first toast, where he cautioned his new step-father to give his new bride her own way…\u201dif you know what\u2019s good for you.\u201d  In a touching gesture, each guest was asked to wear a bee pin from the Joan Rivers Jewelry Collection<\/em>.  Invoices to follow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
