Google Stalking TJ Holmes: And Now It’s Official :(

Get yer hankies, stans!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Why Sweet Baby Jesus, why? (Source: All Things CNN)

(More after the jump)

While I appreciate that TJ did his best to hide this from me by telling his co-host to zip it, then refused to elaborate, I can no longer keep this torch lit. It ain’t an eternal flame, baby. TJ Holmes is getting re-hitched.

It’s the real deal. Our little Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup of the TV News has found love again in the form of a girl we can all welcome and respect (BE NICE! Seriously! FUCK, some of you guys are SO MEAN! You know who you are!) as one of our own. *Sniff.*

A snob. A beautiful, smart, fierce shoe wearing Black Snob. OK. Now pretend to be happy!

Yes, yes … he’s our favorite flavor of man candy and we can still happily drool from a distance as most of us didn’t have a shit’s chance anyway, but it still ruins all your fantasies. Especially if you have really specific, detailed ones where TJ rides to your wedding on a horse at the last minute because you’re totally marrying the WRONG GUY and he totally didn’t care that he had to cover that flood in Jonesboro. He needed to see YOU right then and there! On a HORSE! And he was like good at riding it and shit and his shirt just happened to blow open from the thrust of the church doors.

It was really impressive.

Anyway. I’m now all but certain he’s getting hitched, but I’d still like it if someone, you know, besides me went official with it because like hell if I want to be wrong. A reader said he laughed off a reference to his second nuptuals Friday morning, but those folks at All Things CNN OBVIOUSLY didn’t find that newsworthy until 2 a.m. Monday morning. (Thank God for insomnia!)

That said, if you’re going to cry over a girl taking a man that was never yours to begin with (I started with Dolly Parton’s “Jolene,” but that implied the Teege was all I had and I still have Elba, Naveen Andrews, Isaiah Washington, Aaron McGruder and Daniel Henney), you should at least know a smidge about the woman you’re boo-hooing over — Marliee With-the-last-name-that-makes-her-too-easy-to-harass.

First off, a note to Marilee: Seriously, girl, if you and the Teege read this you need to do some house cleaning. I know you’re a lawyer so you can’t exactly hide, but you’re about to marry a TV personality. You need to make it a little harder for crazy people to get at you. I have a rare last name too, but you’d have to shell out some duckets to even get close. I say this out of love, those digits better lead to Nowheresville or CNN Weekend viewers Sheretta, Antonio and Becky, winners of TJ’s Ultimate Stalker Fan Competition may be applying for your services just to fuck wih you.

You’re just lucky most TJ fans aren’t as nuts motivated as Anderson Cooper fans. (You people FRIGHTEN me!)

That said, let’s tip the hat to the Teege because as wonderfully awesome as The Snob is (and I AM wonderfully awesome and I can make peach cobbler … you remember that right, TJ?), it seems this ladyfriend person is pretty nice and accomplished herself.

Using my master Google Stalking skills here is the scoop on Ms. So Damn Lucky Ducky.

Her name is Marilee. Even though I’ve published pictures of her I, for some reason, … care … and will not use her last name until the engagement goes officially, photos in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution public. I ask that others who know her full name do the same and keep the details about her interesting but purposely vague. This snobbette is a private citizen and I ain’t trying to be sued in this piece.

Marliee is an associate working specifically with Immigration issues and went to Vanderbilt University so she’s probably smart as a whip. She’s only been out of law school for a few years, but has already made an impression it seems. (Or at least she’s made one on my … I mean OUR … Prince of West Memphis.)

She works for one of the older and larger firms in the city. She has great taste in shoes. Everyone tells me she’s gorgeous in person and that I would love her.

But I don’t! Lucky heifer!

I know we all knew this was coming right? Right, T.J. fans? It’s just *sniff* no matter what you do … *sniff* … you’re never prepared! *Bwaaaahhhhh!*

Shut up, Vesta! This is even worse than you. I have to go back. Way back. Back into time for this level of devastation of THIS hot of a man being DENIED to me!

Etta, please. Show them how you properly mourn what’s not yours!

You better love him, girl. Love him like I Love Reeses. He’s my little Peanut Butter Cup.

I heard church bells ringing
I heard a choir singing
I saw my love walk down the aisle
On her finger he placed a ring

Oh, I saw them holding hands
She was standing there with my man
I heard them promise “Till death do us part”
Each word was a pain in my heart

All I could do, all I could do was cry (cry, cry, cry)
All I could do was cry (cry, cry, cry)
I was losing the man that I loved
And all I could do was cry (cry, cry, cry)

Yeah and now the wedding’s over
Rice, rice has been thrown over their heads
For them life has just begun
But mine is at an end

All, all I could do, all I could do was cry (cry, cry, cry)
All I could do was cry (cry, cry, cry)
I was losing the man that I loved (cry, cry, cry)
And all I could do was cry (cry, cry, cry)

    And what is this extreme case of fan obsession based on? I can understand if some of it were related to an appreciation of exceptional talents (dozens of gifted actors, singers and musicians come to mind), as opposed to the mediocre skill of reading the news from a teleprompter. I get the gag though.

    @ dukedravenUm … he’s really, really, really good looking?That said, if you get that it’s a gag, why do write anything? It’s like asking Olive Oil what she sees in Popeye? I mean, women like men. Women like attractive men. Let’s just look at the pretty, pretty person in peace, dude! Thinking makes our heads hurt! You can’t tell me there isn’t a woman you don’t just enjoy based on pure physicality?

  3. Duke … seriously — you’ve never had a star crush? Oh, don’t pay any attention to him, Danielle, your girls know how you feel. Thank you for being so NICE to the lucky fiancée.

  4. Oh Snob, I hate to laugh at your misfortune….but seriously this post cracked me up. That Vesta vid was hilarious to me. But we’ve all been there. My most shameful episode was finally having to accept that George Michael was gay, too old for me and really, really gay. My friends would clown me, my mother thought I was a fool but ol’ George just did it for me. Sigh. Actually can he get on the Great Wall of Sexy, please (if he’s not there already)?

  5. OMG, you’re a nut. You need medication and the Kang.

  6. I wonder what this will do to his ratings. He’s pretty to see and listen to, but that’s about it. He’s not kicking mad journalistic ability like Don Lemon or standing in hurricanes like AC and Ali Velshi…if he’s off the market, what will all of his female viewers (that don’t want to swoon over a married man) do???And I’ve kept up with TJ for some time (thanks to the Snob)…wasn’t he just asking someone to make him a meal? …how long has he known this chick? My friends in Atlanta saw him around all the time, and he definitely made the most of his …ahem…bachelorhood until VERY recently.I’m just saying…But finding love is a wonderful thang. So do your thang ya’ll!

  7. Girlfriend, relax 🙂

  8. I got a call at work to look at this post ASAP! Engaged??? Does TJ know he’s engaged??? LOL!

    Can’t believe you broke out some Vesta. That’s taking me back to the days when I was sporting that unfortunate Salt n Pepa asymmetrical bob (LOL).

    Okay, ladies, I’m lay off your stud muffin. But remember what Judge Judy said about looks: "Beauty fades but dumb is forever." Now I’m not mean or calling anyone dumb, just making a point about temporal things and keeping things real, and in perspective.

  11. Dang, Duke. Must you be the dank blanket on Danielle’s already murky morning? Sheesh! Jeebs be some sense of humor for some folks.

  12. oh Snob…im so sorry (but of course happy for TJ Holmes)…..Im with the above post, I tried to resist the laughter, but when I read the post, the whole time I was thinking poor Danielle….but its okay….who’s the next star crush?!?!? lol

  13. Danielle your post is hilarious girl. Anyway, TJ looks like the type that will try and drag an engagement out for years.lol

    This site is hilarious. I met TJ and Marilee at an event last summer. Both are really nice and cool folks. Marilee has a really interesting and diverse background. I’m not sure why the posts make it seem like TJ is such a player…just because someone is attractive and there is speculation about his past on the internet doesn’t make it real. In person he comes off like a real nice, down-to-earth, good guy.

    What about that other cutey, the lanky gentleman Mr. Lemmon

  16. awwwwwwww! I’m sorry danielle. I take solace in the fact that she’s at least an accomplshed attractive young lady… and doesnt look like a random hooka he picked up from somewhere. Congrats to the happy couple. I hope Tyrone doesnt read this blog b/c he might need to be put on sucide watch! You know the tyrone I’m talking about LOL

    I clicked over here as soon as I found out today. Bwah hahaha! C’mon Danielle. Let’s be happy for the young man. At least he’s marrying a WOMAN!!

  18. Snob, you are so funny…I saw this when it happened, and I was sort of surprised. I really thought he was into the dudes! But this is great for them…I’m sure he wishes he or his fiancee had the opportunity to tell folks instead of having what’s her name spill it on the air!

    Does anyone know if he has kids?

  20. You don’t have to speculate about T being a player if you live in Atlanta. But maybe he’s putting that behind him.And yes, he has a child.

  21. Let me give you a hug Snob, *opens arms wide* it’s alright baby girl, it’s alright…

  22. so the teege is a playa huh? Do tell! lol. I cant say that i’m suprised buut hopefully he’s ready to leave his single days behind him, and since he’s being married before maybe he’ll know what NOT to do now

    Oh, Snob.My condolences to you, and congratulations to "Teege" and best wishes to Ms. "Marilee". I feel your pain, but was laughing out loud at your post! It’s perfect. Now who will be your next crush? : )

    Don Lemon doesn’t play for our (female) team. Look elsewhere.

  26. LOL! This is all so funny. I used to watch the "Teege" myself but he lost me during the election coverage. Anyone else notice how he hated on Obama?? Anyhoo…that’s when I developed my new crush on Jamal Simmons!!! Tall …dark…sexy bald head…my oh my! LOL!

  27. Don lemon is gay?!?!? please say it aint so…..he is so teddy bear cuddly cute!!!ps: Im all for Jamal Simmon’s intelligence, but he doesn’r quite do it for me…..but Boykin….now he is cute (he is a democratic commentator on MSNBC)

    @ Layo GAw girl, Keith Boykin, my St. Louis home skillet, I know for a FACT he’s gay. He’s openly homosexual. Go around and try again! LOL! He was the highest ranking openly gay person in the Clinton Administration (Source)But he IS cute.

  29. Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. This is hilarious. Girl you made my day. But for real, I’m sorry. There will be other TJ’s. I’m sure of it.

    Snob, girl, I’m with you. I’m in a glass case of emotion and Vesta is expressing it all right now.CongratulAAAAATIONS….I thought it would have been meeeee…. I guess I’ll have to go back to my dreams of Wentworth Miller :p

  33. He has a child with his ex-wife. A daughter I think. I’ve never heard him or his friends talk about her though.

    I’m just now seeing this. My "condolences", Ms. Snob, but on the other hand, I was laughing my ass off at your "woe." You really DID play Vesta’s song as promised & Etta James was an added plus. Please don’t crash the wedding & end up on the news….. ;-D Hang in there & try to feel better.

    I like TJ, but I don’t know. Just last Saturday, there was a part on CNN Saturday where they replayed the interview TJ and Betty did with Steve Harvey. They were talking about the book being #1for best seller. CNN played clips of Beonyce’s Single Ladies video in which TJ made a remark to keep the video playing. When he was filling in last week in NY he was talking to Kira about not being into dogs or babies. Why would a man or woman due to marry make remarks like this on national tv? Maybe it’s not as serious as some say. Let’s wait to see the ring on his finger.

    Anyone who knows TJ personally knows he jokes and acts silly. It’s his personablity. He is a fun guy and he keeps it light and funny on air. That doesn’t translate to him not being serious in his private, personal life. The only people who know what’s up with his family, kid situation, and relationship are those close to him, which is a limited circle. That’s how it should be.

  38. ROFL!!!!!!!!You just had to go there Snob. Etta, hmmm. You got it bad girlfriend… This post is all kinds of hilari-"ty". I spat my drink over my laptop reading this. WTH!!!! You are killing me softly.Yep, you do care because that was a good tidbit to Ms Marilee (I’m sure if they don’t read here those that know them, namely coworkers… read this blog) because her surname is a giveaway and I wont even mention her employ which is quite reputable AND "right there" if you live in the A. I do believe however that as a grown and intelligent woman she is even more wary of those in her circle or those as of late, that are befriending her.Anyways, as far as who "you still have", where is Laz Alonso on that list. He is all kinds of delicious, sexy and worthy of your writing. Don’t know jack about his acting skills (have to see his latest this weekend and will buy old films if it is good) but dang he is drop dead GORGEOUS!

    Marilee works in my building, but I’m with a different law firm in the same building and don’t know her. A colleague of mine saw her and TJ walking out of the building together a few weeks ago around lunchtime. I randomly saw her the other day and her ring is beautiful, and huge!

  40. I just HAVE to chime in here…This is all too funny to me. VESTA! Snob, where did you find that video clip? I can just see Donnie Simpson on Video Soul with that one! But its sort of sad too…this man’s business is all out there for the world to read. I live in the A, and I have heard some stories, so I just hope he does Ms. Marilee right. I’m sure she knows what she’s signing up for. He is still sort of young…if you know what I mean. Snob – I’m sure you’ll find a new crush that we can all share with you :-)@anonymous that talks about his limited circleI have a bit of an issue because if you live the "celebrity" life, then expect to be treated like a celebrity. He takes photo ops, makes appearances, and looks good for a reason…to keep his ratings up and make his (female) fans happy. TJ did not look quite like that before he got to CNN…LOL. If he parades his girlfriend/fiancee around town, he shouldn’t be surprised when people want to know who she is or what she’s about. Or more about him (and his family, kids, background) for that matter. Its not exactly fair to them, but Its all part of the deal. Sorry for going there, but that’s a pet peeve of mine. Celebrity folk in the limelight that want to share bits and pieces of their private lives, but then get all in a tissy when their fans want to know more of it. And eventually find out! tsk tskBut I wish them the best…PS – I googled her (sorry)…cute, but not what I expected :-/

  41. Dang, news about TJ spreads quick! LOL! I live in the ATL and saw them together at the airport last week. His fiancee is hot!

  42. Ya know this "engagement" thing made me think for a minute because I could have swore that I read elsewhere that TJ and Chilli was talking about getting married too. So I had to do some research….http://www.postchronicle.com/cgi-bin/artman/exec/view.cgi?archive=46&num=119887Didn't Chilli and TJ call it quits sometime last year? And I guess it’s safe to say that he met "M" last year as well…hmmmmmmm,,,that brotha moves fast (if this is all legit).

  43. Damn!! Snob you really got the people "talking" with this blog!!! I haven’t seen this many responses on a TJ blog ever!!!!Carry on with the conversations……………….

    To the person that said only hisclose friends and family know about his kidsituation spill at least some of it.I heard his ex wife was white,Is his daughter biracial?

  45. Detroit Avatar

    I went to college with M. She’s biracial and one of her parent’s is black and from Africa and the other white. She’s lived all over the world. I find it interesting that TJ would be into her after Ms. Chilli. The two women seem like they’d be the total opposites.

    His daughter is like 13, and I don’t think she is from the ex-wife. But then again the inner circle expert can probably enlighten us, LOL.I am ROLLING over the Tyrone suicide watch notice. I am not TJ and I’m scared of Tyrone! TJ and Marilee should be careful, as with any celeb, but I’m sure they are used to it by now. They both have WAY too much information out there. I got curious on his real name when someone posted it (I wonder if it’s a victim of his player days the way the details were tossed out there, LOL). I was just curious because celeb life fascinates me and to me its like reading a juicy novel, but there are those that are truly obsessed and dangerous. I know Marilee and TJ must be accessible for career reasons, but for his daughter’s sake – move, change your numbers, erase the traces that are out there for stalkers to follow.Oh and hugs Danielle. Will we be wearing black on the official day?

  47. Shocked Avatar

    WTF? Does anyone know when this "engagement" started? Something is NOT adding up!

  48. @ ShockedUmmm…is there something juicy you would like to share???? Please do, everyone else has!!!!

    @ AllI just want to thank everyone for their kind words in my time of need. That said … is this just me or is this the "EVERLASTING GOBSTOPPER" of TJ Holmes Google Stalking threads. I think every piece of TJ gossip staple has been touched from "does he only like light skinned girls" to "does he have a daughter?"But TJ must have some loyal friends (good job picking those friends) and not many haters because rarely does anyone spill any meaningful beans. Not every TV personality can say this.Also, am I the only blog on this story? I need to get to work on my follow up on how TJ is nice enough to keep his engagement out of the news out of respect for my widdle heart. Always thinking of me, that Teege. What a guy.And thanks to everyone for being nice (or at least as nice as their hearts would allow them) to Marilee. I DO NOT want the Snob site to turn into some bizzaro "bash the woman for breathing" site and as usual, my readers did not disappointment me because ya’ll is totally classy ‘n shit. Things could be MUCH uglier. Much.

    LOL @ the comments about Tyrone. That dude is seriously obsessed with TJ. I wonder if he might have an obsessive/compulsive personality. The way he writes in that repetitive style, day after day, pretty much saying the same things seems obsessive and compulsive. I guess I would be afraid of him too….it’s just so difficult to tell online who’s harmless and who’s not.
