BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) - June 27, 2008
Studdard, nicknamed the "Velvet Teddy Bear" on "Idol" for
his big frame and sonorous voice, will marry Surata Zuri McCants,
his girlfriend of two years, at the Canterbury United Methodist
Church in Mountain Brook on Saturday.
He met his bride-to-be during a CD-signing at a Wal-Mart store
in Atlanta in October 2006. The 29-year-old singer says he was
struck by McCants' beauty and later tracked her down in the toy
department and asked for her telephone number.
Studdard is set to release a new album later this year.
