BobbyD 2 Report post Posted September 13, 2005 (Pagesix.com)'MRS. DAMON' HAS NICE RING TO IT LOOKS like Matt Damon has finally taken a cue from his Cupid-struck sidekick, Ben Affleck — and popped the question to his own sexy sweetie. Damon — the star of such flicks as "The Brothers Grimm" and "Bourne Identity" — proposed to curvy single mom Luciana Barroso "shortly before Labor Day," his publicist confirmed to Us Weekly. The couple, who can be frequently spotted cuddling at Boston Red Sox games, have yet to set a wedding date, the mag said. Damon and his Italian cutie — who has a 6-year-old daugther, Alexa — had been dating for two years. A former Miami bartender, Barroso is now billed as an interior designer. Meanwhile, her famous fiancé shared a screenwriting Oscar with best pal Affleck for "Good Will Hunting" in 1997. Affleck and newlywed wife Jennifer Garner are expecting their first child.

The Argentine-born Barroso, along with her daughter, was at Damon's side throughout the European shoot of Ocean's Twelve, PEOPLE reported last year. But their big relationship test came over 2004's July 4 weekend, when Damon brought Barroso home to meet his family and friends in Boston. Introducing her to pals at a local restaurant, he kissed her "every five seconds," said friend Jamal Prince. "He's very serious about her. In the past he kept the other ones secretive.

BobbyD 2 Report post Posted October 4, 2005 (MSNBC.COM) . . . The Scoop is shocked that Matt Damon didn’t fall all over himself thanking Jennifer Love Hewitt for giving him a bed. “There was this article and it was about Matt Damon, and he was saying that he works so much that he doesn’t feel like he has a bed of his own anywhere. And it really struck me as this sort of sad thing,” the "Ghost Whisperer" star said, according to ContactMusic. “I was like, ‘He’s famous and he’s so cute and he’s Matt Damon and he should feel like he has a bed.’ It just made me sad. So I sent him a bed. I sent him an AeroBed and a comforter and sheets. I wrote in there that I was a huge fan and that I wanted him to travel with it and feel like he had a bed wherever he went. I never heard back from him. I have [seen him since] and he’s kind of looked at me a little weird.” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

princess 1,712 Report post Posted October 6, 2005 people.comMatt Damon made one bride-to-be extremely happy when he became the guest of honor at a bachelorette party at Miami Beach's hip steakhouse Prime One Twelve recently. Damon was dining with fiancée Luciana Barroso and several friends when a bachelorette party realized he was there. One by one, the dozen excited ladies sidled up to his table and approached the Oscar winner (who'll next be seen alongside pal George Clooney in the political thriller Syriana, out Dec. 9). He graciously chatted with them during his meal, says an onlooker. After dinner, while waiting to pick up his car at the valet parking, Damon – always the gentleman – "posed for pictures," says a source. "He was really nice to them." Now that's one for the soon-to-be newlywed's memory books. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BobbyD 2 Report post Posted November 17, 2005 (Out.com)Wrestling MattHere’s an item, verbatim, from this week’s Village Voice column by Out contributor Michael Musto. “At Bronx Community College [in New York City], they recently filmed a ‘Skull and Bones’ fraternity initiation scene for The Good Shepherd, which is about the early (and apparently very earthy) days of the CIA. According to an extra, Matt Damon ended up in a giant pit of mud with five other actors, who dropped their flesh-colored thongs, though Matt discreetly (and probably contractually) kept his on. A high point came when Matt wrestled one of the naked men in the muck as the paid extras egged them on. When things couldn’t get any more extraordinary, an assistant director yelled, ‘Cue the pee!’—no, I have no idea—which led to a yellowish flow from the rafters, complete with much behind-the-scenes fussing about the velocity and trajectory of the liquid (coming from plastic bottles, thankfully) onto the moshpit. I hear Bronx Community is now officially called Pee U.” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now Matt.Matt Damon and fianceé Luciana Barroso are expecting their first child together, Access Hollywood has learned. Luciana is three months pregnant.Matt popped the question just before Labor Day to Luciana, who he had been dating for more than one year. The couple has yet to set a date for the wedding.Matt and Luciana met at the Miami nightclub Crobar where Barroso worked as a bartender.Once married, Matt will also become stepdad to Luciana's 7-year-old daughter from a previous relationship.Earlier this year, Damon – who in the past had been romantically linked to Claire Danes, Winona Ryder and Minnie Driver – told Access Hollywood how much easier dating in the public eye is when there are not two A-list stars involved."That definitely helps. I think things can get magnified exponentially when you have two celebrities in a situation," Matt said. "Suddenly the interest it's not just like twice the interest, it's four, eight times depending on the celebrity."Damon's film credits include "Saving Private Ryan," "Rounders," "The Talented Mr. Ripley," "Ocean's Eleven" and "Twelve," as well as the "Bourne" movie franchise.He shared the Oscar for best screenplay with buddy Ben Affleck in 1997 for "Good Will Hunting."

princess 1,712 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 Matt Damon & Girlfriend Marry Friday Dec 09, 2005 2:00pm EST people.com Matt Damon and his girlfriend of two years, Luciana Bozan, were married Friday morning in a private ceremony in Manhattan, his publicist confirms to PEOPLE. This marks the first marriage for the 34-year-old Bourne Identity star. The Argentine-born Bozan, 29, a former bartender who is now an interior designer, has a 7-year-old daughter, Alexia, from a previous relationship. The couple began dating in 2003 when they met in Miami Beach while Damon was filming the comedy Stuck on You. Bozan, along with Alexia, was at Damon's side throughout the European shoot of his movie Ocean's Twelve. But their big relationship test came over 2004's July 4 weekend, when Damon brought Bozan home to meet his family and friends in Boston. Introducing her to pals at a local restaurant, he kissed her "every five seconds," said friend Jamal Prince at the time. "He's very serious about her. In the past he kept the other ones secretive. This one he's not hiding." Like Damon, Bozan also prefers privacy to premieres and paparazzi. "She's not really interested in that stuff," Ocean's Twelve producer Jerry Weintraub told PEOPLE. "She's interested in him." The interest clearly intensified. In September, Damon's rep confirmed to PEOPLE that the two were engaged. Early that month, at the Venice Film Festival, the actor maintained his usual New England cool even amid buzz that Bozan and he were set to wed. Asked by PEOPLE about the chatter, Damon laughed, held up his ringless finger and declared: "I'm not married yet." The key word, it turned out, was "yet." In July Damon visited Bellevue, Wash., jeweler Steven Goldfarb and picked a "classic, elegant" platinum ring to have sent to him. "He said he wanted to get the ring and get engaged," Goldfarb told PEOPLE. "He was very pleased." Damon's brother, Kyle, told PEOPLE: "I am thrilled. I like Lucy a lot. They make a fantastic couple."
