NICE, France (AP) -- Dressed in a demure black suit, a 35-year-old Frenchwoman has married her dead boyfriend, an exchange of vows that required authorization from President Jacques Chirac.

Under French law, Christelle Demichel became both bride and widow in the ceremony, which was performed Tuesday at Nice City Hall on the French Riviera.

A stiffy.

Riggamortis is her friend.

Did MissMisery move to france?

That's actually kinda sad really ... I mean why would you want to become a wife and a widow all at the same time and what do you tell his friends and family ??

benefits come to mind...but I'm just mildly cynical....
