After five years together, The Insider host Pat O'Brien and his girlfriend Betsy Stephens plan to marry.
"It's probably going to be next fall," O'Brien, with Stephens at his side, told PEOPLE at A-Rod's All-Star party at New York City's 40/40 Monday. "We're in love and in no big hurry. We don't know if it will take place – in Jamaica, New York, or Nantucket."
"I think we're going to sneak off and do something really romantic," said Stephens, who recalled first meeting O'Brien at Los Angeles's Staples Center. "It was a basketball event."

Halle Gives School The Dress Off Her Back
Originally posted 04/28/2005 08:50AM
DONATED: Halle Berry (class of '84) is true to her school, giving two of her designer gowns to Cleveland's Bedford High so they can be auctioned during a prom fashion show and raise money to send students on a field trip to the Underground Railroad Freedom Center in Cincinnati. "She always said that if I need anything to let her know," Yvonne Sims, a guidance counselor and Berry's fifth-grade teacher, tells the Associated Press. (Berry has told InStyle that Sims was her childhood role model.) One dress is a knee-length geometric print that Berry wore on an Ebony magazine cover last year. The other is a white Versace halter-style she wore to a party after the debut of Lackawanna Blues, the HBO film she produced. Bidding, which ends Thursday, starts at $500 per dress.

March 24, 2004GETTING BACK 'NSYNC Boy band fans, rejoice: Rumors of an imminent 'NSync reunion appear to be true. "I'm sure we will," Joey Fatone told Daily Insider at the recent CD release party for bandmate JC Chasez's solo effort, Schizophrenic, at New York hotspot Marquee. "It's odd to say, you may not believe it, but yeah, we are. Everybody's doing their own thing right now – JC has his CD, (Justin Timberlake is) shooting a movie – but we do want to get together." 'NSync-er Lance Bass concurs. "We're waiting for Justin to finish his movie and then we'll get back to the studio," says the former aspiring cosmonaut. "We'll have a new album by 2005 – at least, that's my opinion."
