"Continuing a celebrity trend that has baffled me for years, Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon renewed their wedding vows in Paris today. In 2010, People asked Nick why he and Mariah felt the need to say their vows ad nauseam: &amp;quot;Don&amp;#x27;t everybody do that?&amp;quot; the America&amp;#x27;s Got Talent host replied. &amp;quot;Don&amp;#x27;t, like, Heidi Klum and Seal do the same thing every year?&amp;quot; Yeah, and look how that turned out. Anywho, Mariah and Nick will be celebrating four years of wedded bliss&amp;amp;#8212;as well as the first birthday of their twins&amp;amp;#8212;on Monday, so they partied in Paris today, dressing very much like the bride and groom while renewing their vows with the Eiffel Tower in the backdrop. Read the full story here. Rory and I will celebrate our four-year wedding anniversary this year, too. We&amp;#x27;ll probably go out for a nice dinner, maybe even take a little weekend trip. We will not be renewing our vows, because they&amp;#x27;re not a library book, so they haven&amp;#x27;t expired. Also, we meant them the first time we said them, so neither of us feels the need to repeat them. Sometimes I feel like celebrities constantly renew their vows because they feel like they have to put on a big show to convince the world (or themselves?) that they&amp;#x27;re still in love. Either that, or they&amp;#x27;re sick of rolling around in their money Indecent Proposal-style, so they have to think of a more creative way to waste it, and a big, showy vow renewal is all they can come up with. Am I being too cynical? Do you think it&amp;#x27;s romantic to renew your wedding vows? Will you? I mean, MAYBE I get it for a milestone anniversary, like 25 or 50 years. But 4?
