Jenny Lewis, the renowned musician and Rilo Kiley frontwoman, made headlines with a unique and unconventional celebration for her 50th birthday. On January 8th, Lewis decided to tie the knot with her beloved pet, a cockapoo named Bobby Rhubarb. This heartwarming and unexpected union was inspired by her 2021 single, "Puppy and a Truck." But here's where it gets controversial... While some may find the idea of a dog marriage peculiar, Lewis' decision to celebrate her milestone in such an unconventional way has sparked curiosity and debate. The ceremony, which took place on her special day, was a private affair, with close friends and family in attendance. Morgan Nagler and Farmer Dave Scher performed, and Lewis herself serenaded guests with a rendition of The Postal Service's "Such Great Heights" alongside Ben Gibbard, and Phantom Planet's "California" with Alex Greenwald. This wasn't the only recent milestone for Lewis and Rilo Kiley. The band reunited after a 17-year hiatus, performing their first show together in years and releasing a greatest-hits album, "That's How We Choose To Remember It." With more shows on the horizon in May, fans are eagerly anticipating the return of this beloved indie-rock group. So, what do you think? Is this a heartwarming celebration of love and friendship, or a bizarre display of eccentricity?
