Gavin Newsom & Jennifer Seibel to Tie the Knot
Here she comes, Kimberly II.
According to the Gate, "SF Mayor Newsom engaged to be married." Ta da. It seems that our former hard-partying stallion of a mayor "spoke with his girlfriend's father first and then proposed marriage." Oh, please. Sure. And will little singing mice also be making her wedding dress?
Anyway, Gavin and Jennifer, congratulations and best wishes, respectively. Let's hope this one sticks.
(Sorry, Beth.)

I never thought I'd say this about anyone, but she makes Kimberley Guilfoyle look like a rocket scientist.
I guess she's better than Paris Hilton. But still. Oy.
every bush needs its laura.
Pre-nups from as low as, $99.99. Call 1-800 LIZTAYLOR
I love this quote: "You know the kind of thing where people finish each other's sentences? They do."
Um, yeah, I think it's so that his PR people can make sure she doesn't say anymore stupid stuff. Then again, Gavin has been pretty teflon-coated so far.
Is Kimberley supposed to be stupid or something? That CA bar exam is no picnic.
Having recently taken the prison rape known as the CA bar exam, I echo SFistJim's sentiments.
Although there are a lot of things you can call Kimberly Guilfoyle, stupid is not one of the top ten that comes to mind. Pretty smart to unload Newsom, that's for sure.
Seibel should make a perfect political wife: a smiling, hand waving, empty shell, a job Guilfoyle was far too smart and ambitious for.
And he "spoke with her father first"? What is she, chattel? I thought this was the United States, not Afghanistan.
Is it just me or is it a little tacky to announce one's engagement so soon after the whole tiger fiasco? I love how he takes off to Hawaii (again) while Rome is burning. He dumped the whole mess on Sean Elsberne while he's off (again) with the "Girl's Girl." Seriously, I never hear anything about Gavin anymore unless it's about his all too public personal life.
Then again, let's not forget his assertive statement. "Wild animal attacks will not be tolerated in San Francisco." Alrighty then!
Gavin, grow up.
Interns beware:
I heard the Gav has his sights set on something BIGGER after he's done with San Francisco
I'm still laughing. Spoke to her father? What the hell era is this, the 18th century?
My life is now so complete
A puppet kissing my feet
My advisor told me to do it
I hope I can get through it
but my life is now complete
A puppet does not care if I cheat
I'll still hang out at Balboa
although she'll never knowa
Brittany and I still have a tryst
CSI still on my list
My life is now complete Kimberly's texts I will delete
It should last at least a year, until she detects I am queer.

Apparently, Tatiana the tiger doesn't have the power to ruin Gav's Hawaiian weekend the way the Cosco Busan did.
It's called Gav's next to-do on the run-for-governor checklist. And it was totally predictable.
Seems like everyone in Gavin's "scandal" has really had everything work out great for 'em. Everyone got what they wanted, be it a book deal, or a great new business consulting to high end clients, or getting that MRS degree someone missed at Stanford.....and don't forget the progressive frak-up that helped ol' Gavin get 70% of the vote (Sorry Steve Jones, despite your denials, Gavin won!)
And San Francisco got what it wanted - feel good politics without any thought to getting things done. Dodge a bullet on the way to a delayed MUNI train....Gavin's gotta get his beard!!

Breaking news from "Who Gives a Rats Ass"... As Meg Cho might say, 'Gavin - he the ghey!'
is anyone running a betting pool for how long this "marriage" is going to last?
p.s. nice to see the Gothamist comment server reliably goofing up again.
Malcove: Since it hasn't worked reliably (if at all) in weeks, I'd say a lack of error would be the only thing worth noting. That said, it's weird that people still do the multiple button press after all this time. It still posts, people, figure it out! I know the intarnets be confusing, but still.
Too funny. So I guess now that he's got his trophy wife, the sky's the limit. I still find situations like these so bizarre and wonder what some men have against an intelligent woman. And where did the idea that anything blonde with tits is beautiful and ideal come from? I can't think of anything more boring than watching these nutters prance around desperate for constant attention.
And isn't he still fooling around with that 20 year old? Are we supposed to now see him as some wholesome well-rounded individual just because he's getting married and ignore the fact that he's still shagging anything that moves and couldn't give a fiddler's fart about the city? And I totally agree with bernsteinbears, if Gavin would put the same amount of energy into his job that he does flaunting his personal life perhaps he would earn more respect. Seriously, if it's not bringing his girlfriend to work he's boozing it up in some bar chasing skirts.
I said it before, and I'll say it again; someone's slipped some serious cuckoo juice in the water supply at city hall.
Good for Gavin .... he proposed within 2 years. So many guys "test things out" for 3, 4, 5, 10 years before the ladyfriend makes them put up or shut up ... of the guy just finds a younger girl to replace the "old" ladyfriend. Ladies - respect yourselves and stop letting straight men have their cake and eat it indefinitely. 2 Years or Out!
Congratulations to the Mayor and his bride to be.
Yes indeedy, this guy takes his vows very seriously, you can ask ol kimberly gilfoyle if you don't believe it.
An actress is always perfect as a co-star to the always blushing mayor and his antics. Should be very entertaining making bets on this side show.
Is it just me or is it a little tacky to announce one's engagement so soon after the whole tiger fiasco?
It's just you.
how long till the Vanity Fair spread?!!!!!
My husband and I saw them at the Russian Hill Walgreen's the weekend before Christmas. I noticed Gav, and my husband noticed Jen. He observed that her butt looked like an heirloom tomato. (And I noticed her tweeds were mismatched.)
At one point, a woman went up to Gav, and said, "You look a lot like the mayor of our city." To which he replied, "That's because I am."
Jen charged a couple of big bags full of toys on her credit card, and I first thought, "She's doing all her last-minute X-mas shopping at Walgreen's?" But we figured they were on their way to a charity event of some sort, Town Car and all...
Thanks for the vivid story Leanne. Have you ever seen the ol Gavoon's derriere? One cheek higher than the other, huge and flat as a pancake. This guy should NEVER wear jeans, just cover it with a coat!
Nice to know that the Gavins resort to shitty-ass toys when charity is involved.
"Look mom, 'Gutter Hero II!'"
In contrast to all of the nasty statements and comments posted here I must say that I am very happy for Mayor Newsom and Miss Siebel though I was at the Inauguaral party and did get a bit irritated though when someone referred to them as the new 'Camelot!' I don't think they quite match up to the Kennedys even though I am sure they would aspire to becoming iconic! Jennifer Siebel is no Jackie O, that is for sure...the other gal, Kimberly has a lot more class in my estimation but alas she is off in TV land. I am rather turned off by the article that Miss Siebel did for the Chronicle last year and some of the awkward comments that she made and not certain about how long this marriage will last but lets just try to hope for the best...who knows, she could turn out to be the best thing that ever happened to the Mayor. Lets all pray or burn incense or whatever we do and hope that their union is blessed and that Miss Siebel does not have to go thru any pain or suffering and that the Mayor has really put his past behind him. Everyone deserves a second chance! Lets stop doing the negative comment thing here and finger pointing and attempt to just clean up our own backyards! We all have made mistakes that I am sure we would like to take back and would like to have a second shot at something so let us at least be better people and give our re-elected Mayor and his new fiance a chance and hope that things turn out positive. Why waste your precious time saying such mean-spirited things about individuals? Our speech and what we say is so important and if we continue to spew out all this negative garbage we only generate more! So congratulations to Mayor Newsom and his cute fiance, Miss Siebel! God Bless!
