In short, Kara DioGuardi has hit the bigtime. And it's because of this that Kara DioGuardi's contractor boyfriend Mike McCuddy realised that he'd be legally entitled to half of her American Idol earnings if he married her. No, that's not right. We meant that he realised how much he loved her. No, that's not right either. The first one. The first one's right. Oh, look, Kara DioGuardi married her boyfriend on Sunday, that's the point. AP reports:

Kara DioGuardi had a busy Fourth of July weekend: The "American Idol" judge married her beau, contractor Mike McCuddy. DioGuardi's publicist, Danica Smith, says the couple tied the knot on Sunday in Prospect Harbor, Maine. Smith says 30 guests witnessed the ceremony at the Prospect Harbor United Methodist Church.
