Eighties singing sensation Sheena Easton has walked down the aisle for the fourth time. The For Your Eyes Only singing star wed Beverly Hills plastic surgeon John Minoli at Las Vegas Hall in a hush-hush November 5 ceremony which was even kept secret from their families. Easton's manager Harriet Wasserman explains, "That's just the way they wanted it. They've been dating for three years, and they decided it was time." But sources tell American tabloid the Star that the real reason behind the secrecy is because the groom's family don't approve of the union. A family friend says, "His relatives see her as a manipulative and controlling woman." The newlyweds were reportedly broken up earlier this year until Wasserman agreed to move his successful practice from Beverly Hills to Las Vegas. Easton, who's now a headliner at the Las Vegas Hilton, has had three failed marriages, which lasted a grand total of 38 months.

New Line on Friday was forced to recall more than 11,000 movie trailers and untold thousands of posters for its forthcoming Austin Powers in Goldmember after the MPAA ruled that the studio had jumped the gun in releasing them before an arbitration panel ruled on MGM's complaint that they infringed on its James Bond rights. Some of the posters were said to be parodies of such Bond movies as Goldfinger and For Your Eyes Only. Some fan websites that had posted the material were asked to remove it. MGM released a statement on Friday saying that it had "a zero-tolerance policy toward anyone who tries to trade on the James Bond franchise without authorization." Today's (Monday) Wall Street Journal reported that MGM execs were particularly upset about the appearance in the movie of Mike Myers's Fat Bastard character coated in gold paint a la Goldfinger.
