For the second week in a row, newlyweds Christina Aguilera and Jordan Bratman are on the cover of OK! magazine.
In the issue on newsstands today, the singer spills details about her Nov. 19 wedding in another coup for the weekly's U.S. edition, which launched Aug. 3. OK! also ran the first exclusive photos of Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher's Sept. 24 wedding.
Aguilera, 24, tells OK! that her entire wedding weekend "can be summed up in one word: magical."
The singer and Bratman, 28, hosted 125 guests in Napa Valley, Calif., before leaving on a two-week honeymoon. Aguilera changed from a floor-length Christian Lacroix gown to a sexy Les Habitudes number before the reception, according to OK!
Aguilera carried a diamond rosary instead of flowers, she says, and the couple were carried in chairs to a hip-hop rendition of Hava Nagila.
She changed a third time, into a cream satin and velvet halter dress by Simone Harouche.
"When I was standing there with Jordan, under the chuppah, with the rabbi, I was in a dream-like state. I knew I was about to marry the man I completely and totally love," she tells OK!
Unlike other celebrity magazines, OK! is "quite open about paying for" exclusive pictures and interviews, says editor Sarah Ivens, who would not discuss figures. Ivens says Hollywood handlers are happy with the arrangement, since they have to approve the images and the article.
Celebs use the money, she says, to pay for the wedding or donate it to charity.
Aguilera is donating proceeds to Habitat for Humanity and to a domestic-violence charity, her publicist says.
