(Ira Kuzma) So Nicolas Cage is again off the market. The Oscar-winning actor and Las Vegas resident reportedly married his fiance, Erika Koike, on Saturday afternoon at Weddings at Bellagio on the Strip. As celeb website TMZ first reported, earlier that day the couple had tipped off their nuptial plans by obtaining a marriage license at the Clark County Marriage License Bureau in downtown Las Vegas. Koike, 35, is the kimono-clad woman who has previously been spotted with the 55-year-old Cage around Las Vegas and L.A. The bride‘s parents reportedly own Jasmine Thai Cuisine in L.A., where she has worked as a waitress (previous reports that she is a makeup artist have been false).

Koike has typically donned her trademark kimono in shots of the couple as they are spotted on the scene. Cage was been married twice before Kim, to actress Patricia Arquette from 1995-2001, and to Lisa Marie Presley from 2002-04. He won is Academy Award for Best Actor for his portrayal of tragic Hollywood screenwriter Ben Anderson in 1995’s “Leaving Las Vegas.” ‘The Dirt’ aftermath It’s not often you watch an on-the-money biopic about four individuals who are lucky to be alive, but “The Dirt” is such a flick. Wow, how the members of Motley Crue — Vince Neil (who has a home in Las Vegas), Mick Mars, Nikki Sixx and Tommy Lee — have made it this far defies belief. The film premiered on Netflix on Friday and gives an indication that is both stylish and unvarnished of the debauchery in the 1980s hard-rock culture. The film has resulted in some real-life drama, too. Louis DiVincenti, a crew member on the set of scenes shot in New Orleans, is suing the band for $1.8 million after he suffered severe electrical burns during filming last year. DiVincenti was shocked by a power line and suffered second- and third-degree burns over 50 percent of his body. He spent seven weeks in the burn unit at New Orleans’ University Medical Center. According to the New Orleans Advocate, DiVincenti is alleging that Netflix and film producers (including the four members of Motley Crue) did not address electrical hazards during on-site filming at the Munch Factory restaurant in the city’s Lower Garden District. The restaurant was transformed into the famous Sunset Strip rock club Whisky a Go-Go, where Motley Crue performed its earliest shows. Tenors on the move Tenors of Rock closed out their residency at Harrah’s Showroom on Monday after 626 performances. The vocal troupe of Jimmy Denning, Dai Richards, Jonathan Williams and Dan Schumann were without bandmate Tommy Sherlock, who was out tending to a family matter. So the foursome taped a photo of Sherlock to his mic stand onstage and rocked on. Though the night often felt like a culmination, the Tenors will live on. As previously reported, the rock vocalists are moving to the considerably smaller Sin City Theater at Planet Hollywood. Having just mentioned the Whiskey A Go-Go, I’d love to see something like famed club (or the Viper Room) for the act at Sin City. Turn the production into a real rock-club experience, an almost an unbroken medley of classics with a crack backing band. That’s how rock works in small rooms because there’s no room for a catwalk, giant video displays or dancing on platforms in the wings at Sin City Theater. More rock for Vault On the topic of yet more rock ‘n’ roll, Raiding the Rock Vault is selling tickets through December at Vinyl at Hard Rock Hotel. This development is the latest indication that there will be no interruption of business this year as the hotel preps to turn over to Virgin Hotel Las Vegas in 2020. Donny’s dates OFP (Our Favorite Peacock) Donny Osmond is making a big calendar to count down the nights until the Donny & Marie show leaves the stage at Flamingo Las Vegas. Tuesday was No. 1,616. As to when this calendar will be ready for the stage, Osmond says, “As soon as it’s built!” Which means, any night now. Great Moments in Social Media Park Theater displayed a giant “Happy Birthday” image for Steven Tyler of Aerosmith on its marquee on Tuesday. Tyler tweeted the image, with the note, “IF YOU WALK OUT THE DOOR LOOK UP AND SEE ME ALL UP IN YOUR FACE …” True. Happy 71st birthday, for sure.

Take for example the weekend he just had, where he filed for an annulment just four days after getting married in Las Vegas. According to court records, Cage requested the annulment citing reasons that included being too drunk to understand his actions when he married girlfriend Erika Koike, claiming that he and Koike drank “to the point of intoxication” before the wedding Saturday. The 55-year-old Cage argues he wasn’t aware of Koike’s “relationship with another person.” This was/is the fourth marriage of the Oscar-winning actor.<doc-sep>Nicolas Cage was married for the fourth time last weekend – for four days anyway. And now he wants an annulment. According to court documents obtained by the Associated Press, the actor and makeup artist Erika Koike applied for a marriage license in Las Vegas Saturday. But by Wednesday Cage asked for an annulment, citing reasons that included being too drunk to understand his actions when he married Koike. Cage, whose real name is Nicolas Kim Coppola, says he and Koike drank “to the point of intoxication” before the wedding Saturday. The 55-year-old Cage argues he wasn’t aware of Koike’s “relationship with another person.” He and Koike started dating last April. Cage was previously married to Patricia Arquette from 1995 to 2001, then to Lisa Marie Presley from 2002 to 2004 (their divorce proceedings lasted longer than the marriage) and to Alice Kim from 2004 to 2016, with whom he shares a son, 13-year-old Kal-El. Cage also has a son with former partner Christina Fulton, 28-year-old Weston. Representatives for Cage haven't responded to USA TODAY's request for comment on this story.

Actor Nicolas Cage has been married four times before and is currently seeking an annulment only days into his most recent marriage to makeup artist Erika Koike. Cage and Koike were partying it up in Las Vegas this past weekend when they decided it would be a good idea to get married. Only four days into the marriage, Cage officially filed for an annulment. Court documents state that the actor was drunk at the time of the wedding and thus unable to fully comprehend what was going on, according to Page Six. Newly-released court documents state that both Koike and Cage had been drinking prior to their decision to get married. "Prior to obtaining a marriage license and participating in a marriage ceremony, [they] were both drinking to the point of intoxication. As a result of his intoxication, when [Koike] suggested to [Cage] that they should marry, [he] reacted on impulse and without the ability to recognize or understand the full impact of his actions." Nicholas Cage files for annulment just four days after surprise marriage https://t.co/JR0CAWovoy pic.twitter.com/mBa3xKWVvs — CNA (@ChannelNewsAsia) March 29, 2019 The documents go on to state that because Cage was so drunk he "lacked understanding of his actions in marrying [Koike] to the extent that he was incapable of agreeing to the marriage. "Cage's first marriage was to Patricia Arquette from 1995 t0 2001. He then married Lisa Marie Presley, the only child of Elvis and Priscilla Presley. The pair split up in 2004 after only two years of marriage. After that came his longest marriage to Alice Kim from 2004 to 2016. It didn't take long for the internet to dig up the details of Koike's history. Cage's four-day bride has been arrested twice in the past for driving while under the influence in Los Angeles. These incidents occurred in 2011 and 2018. She was arrested yet again for a DUI in Las Vegas last year. In 2016, she was also accused of assault and battery by a woman who says Koike jumped out at her in a dark parking lot and punched her in the face. While the alleged victim says she did file a police report, it's not clear whether or not Koike was ever arrested as a result of the incident, according to Blast. Despite Koike's messy past with the legal system, the dissolution of her marriage from Cage doesn't look like it's going to be too dramatic. It's been reported that she does not have any plans to fight the annulment or take on the actor in any kind of legal battle.
