Ladies, it’s over. The Bear Jew is taken.
Eli Roth, 42-year old director of “Hotel,” “Cabin Fever” and yes, that guy anyone with eyes ogled during “Inglurious Basterds,” has tied the knot. The lucky lady is actress Lorenza Izzo, 22.
According to People Magazine, the couple wed in Izzo’s native Chile in a bilingual ceremony. She wore Vera Wang, he wore an Isaia tuxedo.

Why I became the Forward’s editor-in-chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
— Alyssa Katz, editor-in-chief
