Fans of one tall,
dark-haired, and steel-eyed Backstreet Boy must have felt a psychic
twinge this weekend, as the group's Kevin Richardson married his
longtime girlfriend Kristin Willits on Saturday.
Richardson, who was
named "Sexiest Pop Star" by "People" magazine last
November, closed the deal on his eight-year relationship at a small,
private ceremony at the Cathedral Domain in his hometown of Lexington,
Kentucky, a rep for the band confirmed. All of Kevin's fellow Backstreet
Boys were in attendance at the service.
Along with
Richardson, BSB Brian Littrell revealed his engagement to MTV News
earlier this year, though there's no word yet on when Littrell is
expected to make his own trip down the aisle.
After the newlyweds
have a chance to enjoy a spot of post-nuptial bliss, Kevin and the other
Boys will head back into the studio on July 1 with producer Max Martin
to work on their next, as-yet-untitled album, which is due out this
fall.
