PARIS - Actress and singer Vanessa Paradis has married French director Samuel Benchetrit, according to a report by magazine Le Parisien. Wearing a cream-colored ruffle dress with flowers in her blonde hair, Paradis married Benchetrit at the town hall in Saint-Simeon, east of Paris, the report said on Sunday.

Photographs on the website of Le Parisien showed a smiling Paradis leaving the town hall arm-in-arm with Benchetrit, wearing a navy suit, as wedding guests threw confetti over the couple.
