Janeane Garofalo Has Been Married For 20 Years

Until recently, Janeane Garofalo thought she was a single woman. It turns out though she was married for almost 20 years to her former boyfriend Rob Cohen. The pair got married in Vegas back in 1991 but they didn't think it counted because they went through a drive-thru and were in the back of a cab and never filled out paperwork that they can recall. It turns out though they were married and Rob came calling when he wanted to get married to someone else. According to The NY Post, the couple only had their marriage dissolved this past week and then had a Ben Stiller Show reunion which is where they met.

    She's cool and all but, Enty, surely you have better material than this, I'm trying to wake up here. Janeane Garofalo? Snore. Why not throw in another one of those juicy blinds you've been holding back. Come on, you know you want to!

    Ha, since they got married in Vegas, he'd be entitled to 50% of what she made since the marriage.

    So, like, $17.

    Reporting on Janeane Garofalo's mystery marriage is infinitely more interesting than anything about a "Real Housewife" or Teen Mom.

    OT but I wanted to thank everyone for the good luck and kind words. It really meant a lot to me. To be truthful it brought tears to my eyes when I saw and am starting to tear up again.
    I am having surguery tomorrow to remove what the dr described to me as a complex cyst about the size of a newborn baby's head (almost 10cm). He told me not to worry it should be benign but wants to remove it first then biopsy instead of leaving me in pain for a week or two.

    Ladies, if you are considering having a hysterectomy please consider having BOTH your ovaries removed. I had everything except 1 ovary removed and I still went into menopause. The dr who did the hysto talked me into leaving one ovary and it has caused me nothing but problems. Not to mention my sister in law just died about 4 months ago from ovarian cancer due to the same issue. I am not preaching saying that you need to have them both removed by any means. Just do your research and be confident in your drs opinion (which I wasn't at the time).

    And again, thank you all. Even though I do not know any of you personally, your kind words affected me more than any I have gotten to my face. >3 you all

    Good luck Bobbi. Will keep my fingers crossed for you.

    Just to add something to what you said about the ovaries. My doctor (gyno-oncologist) believes that ovarian cancer actually starts in the fallopian tubes, so if you're going to have that kind of surgery, have the tubes removed as well. Ovarian cancer is very hard to test for, and often by the time it's diagnosed, it's quite advanced.

    Except I distinctly remembering reading YEARS ago that she'd gotten married in Vegas in the past, hadn't been with the guy in forever but had never bothered to get a divorce or anullment so she didn't find out recently unless recently was ten years ago or more.

    I love/d Janeane! She was awesome on the MTV 25 Lame special. The last thing I saw her on was co-hosting The Jimmy Kimmel Show back when he had a different co-host each week. I remember being bummed because she didn't say much.

    Um, she's talked about this before. In an interview years ago, her quote was something like, "Yeah, I'm married. We never bothered to get it annulled." This wasn't a surprise to her.

    I have a special place in my heart for Janeane. I used to be a regular blogger at The Majority Report and thanks to that, met the former Love of my Life who was also a blogger there. Nik also went to high school with Janeane in Madison until she left to move to Texas. So .. I got to know her a bit through him and so I like her.

    She is also a lot like me .. very self-deprecating, very liberal and also like me in the feeling she will never find love in her lifetime that last. She breaks my heart .. so I guess I adore her.

    So .. I guess that is meaningless post Number One for me today!

    I'm neutral with JG, but I have hard time with this story. I got married in Vegas and needed a license. Now it was 20 years later, but Vegas is strict about certain things. I think this story is bogus, but fun to talk about.

    If Enty ever had written a blind about an actress in TV and movies who had been secretly married for 20 years, would any of us have ever guessed Janeane? Nobody. Not even Janeane would have guessed it. She wins best Hollywood secret ever. (My husband makes us watch "Mystery Men" several times a year.)

    Bobbi, you posted that yesterday but please keep us updated. I know what you mean about ovarian cancer. Every single woman on my father's side has died from a form of female cancer, including my sister (stage 4 breast)...it's nothing to play around with. I'm mid-30s and trying to talk my doctor into giving me a full hysterectomy. My thoughts and warm hugs are with you for a speedy recovery.

    @bobbi_1025 Prayers for you!! It sound exactly like my friend's benign cyst - even the same size and area. She gained an unexplained 10 pounds, and when dieting didn't work, she went to the doctor, and this is what it was.....This was about 10 yrs ago, and she's never had a recurrence....

    I saw her stand up this summer in Chicago. I've always loved her as an actress, but wasn't sure how the stand up would be. She was hilarious. I can't imagine the shock they both had after thinking they were single all these years. Ahh, Vegas.
