EVANESCENCE Singer Ties The Knot
- May 9, 2007
|
|
According to KHTV Little Rock, Amy Lee, the 25-year-old lead singer of EVANESCENCE, got married to her therapist fiance, Josh Hartzler, 28, this past weekend. Amy's father, John Lee, confirmed to Evanescencefan.net that his daughter and Hartzler were married on Sunday (May 6) in a very private ceremony. John said of the wedding, "The big deal at the wedding was the flowers. Many, many flowers. It was absolutely beautiful and everything went perfectly." He also added that the newlyweds are now on their honeymoon on a remote island. Amy got engaged to Josh in January while the band was in Toronto to perform at the Air Canada Centre. The longtime friends had been dating for more than a year. It is Lee's first marriage. Guitarist John LeCompt and drummer Rocky Gray left EVANESCENCE last week for undisclosed reasons. LeCompt claimed on his MySpace.com blog that he was fired during a cell phone conversation with Amy Lee, while drummer Rocky Gray said he was asked by band management not to discuss the situation. However, Lee said in a statement that EVANESCENCE remains "alive and well" and will soon return to the road with new musicians. " John and Rocky were in EVANESCENCE for four years and we shared some great times together playing live, but they were ready to move on and so we have parted ways," she said. " EVANESCENCE is something I have loved and nurtured since I was 14, and I will continue to protect and fight for it as I always have." EVANESCENCE is due to return to the stage May 19 at the first Rock on the Range festival in Columbus, Ohio, and has European dates on tap through late June.

I'm not a fan either, but this is AMY LEE's band. She can call it Amy Lee for all I care, but she doesn't. Quit whining that you were just a hired gun and not even a big gun at that. Just appreciate the money that you made while you were along for the ride.

Psychology all comes clear after the facts are all on the table. She fired LeCompt so she didn't have to break up with her fiancee before the wedding. But surely she will divorce her new husband soon.

If I was single, I'd become a therapist, would'nt you? You'd have problem stricken females running to you for help. And they are PAYING you for the privilege. Women, I imagine could easily fall for a guy like that, even ugly guys like me...oops I mean ugly guys like other people. And you could have your pick: divorced, women in debt; or rich, rather attractive female singers in very popular rock bands.
Maybe they'll make a good couple, who knows? But it does illustraste the point if it were not to work out that therapists should'nt get involved with their patients.
I'm not gonna be a basher like most posters. Nor will I say I want to p... ...t (I'm sure others will say it! - I'll maybe just think it!).But I will say that I'd very likely easily go for her if I hadda a chance, but with the big shake up in her band lately, I gotta wonder if she is Blackmore/Malmsteen/Tarja/Britney all rolled into one. Sure it's her 1st marriage, but it did'nt say it'll be her last marriage. Given the shakeups in her band makes me be a little skeptical. And I don't know all the ins and outs of her band , because although I like female fronted metal, other bands do it much more to my liking. Epica or Dreams of Sanity being about the best. The Evanescence formula of her sitting at the piano playing and nu-metal riffs are'nt the best way to reach my heart.

When I was in grade school, in the mid to early 70's, there was a movie on one of the big 3 networks (not much other than that in those days). I would like to know if it rings a bell with anybody what this movie was.: Some women would marry all these guys and kill them off. One unlucky guy was doing sommersaults and he flew out the window as she opened it up at the right moment. Then toward the end of the movie she married a cop named Mike and sabotaged the shower as he was in there so that it broke and she put a towel under the door so he would drown. Also there was a part where the 8 ball in a game of pool was a bomb.
somebody tell me what this movie was if anybody knows.
Now why would I bring this up on an Evanescsence thread?
LOL

All I have to say is that her first husband is in for a real treat. She's got a big ass, loads of cash, but can he handle her narcissim?

I was hoping it was a noose. From the Blabber reports, she needs a serious attitude adjustment.
I'm no hater. FALLEN was genuis. "SWEET SACRIFICE", from the new CD, is a jam and her voice is FINE, so I wouldn't count her out yet.
I couldn't IMAGINE marrying my therepist...

a therepist marrys a vulnerable, beautiful, rich woman
and drives her crazy--or accuses her of being crazy--and uses his authority to lock her up in a sanitarium
and robs her of her wealth
Keep repeating--it's only a movie...only a movie...only a movie

Of course this will probably go ignored so that any number of "she married her therapist" jokes can continue; but it doesn't say she married HER therapist, only that her fiance IS a therapist.

Evanescence would fall under the hard rock category, and they're popular, therefore they get blabbermouth attention. Stop complaining whiners.
As for Amy Lee, i'm surprised anyone would want to put up with her ego and bitchiness, but maybe she isn't always as ridiculous as she seems.

Marrying someone whose job it is to pretend he cares about all your drama. Great job, Amy.

don't exaggerate. The greatest/worst non-story in Blabbermouth history is Scott Weiland enjoying orange juice on the Sunset Strip. A classic.

You are at least 30 years old and you are using the term 'LOL,' really?
Anyone want to take bets on the length of this marriage? I say 6months-year.

Won't last. A therapist *should* be intelligent enough to realize that you never, EVER marry a chick who needs therapy. They're good for the occasional crazy-chick lay, but under no circumstances are they marriage material. What's the over-under on this marriage anyway? Whatever it is, I'm taking the under.
