The even will take place on July 24th at Georgetown University in Washington, DC.

Shedding light on his admiration for South Asian American political candidates, Jay Sean says:

“I am really excited about participating in the IALI conference this weekend. I’m proud of these pioneering South Asians being celebrated for their individual talents and gifts, and happy to lend my support.”

This year there are six Indian American candidates running for Congressional seats, the most in US history. As an icon in mainstream America with cultural ties to South Asia, Jay Sean’s initiative is an inspiring call to action to support the South Asian community’s presence in politics.

Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom have secretly wed!

Still no word on when or where they tied the knot, but in a statement released Thursday, Kerr, 31, announced that she has canceled an appearance at the Australian department store David Jones to celebrate.

“David Jones very graciously released me during this period so we could celebrate an intimate ceremony and honeymoon together,” she said. “I’m very much a part of the David Jones Family and I am very committed to my role. I am enormously grateful to David Jones to have been given this time to enjoy such a special moment in my life.”

Kerr and Bloom, 33 — who been dating for nearly three years –- announced their engagement in June. Kerr is best known to be a Victoria’s Secret model while Orlando Bloom has been working on the immensely popular movie franchise Pirates of the Caribbean.

No matter what the reason may be though of this union taking place, we think boys and gals everywhere will collectively agree when we say that we are not yet ready to let go of yet another sexy lot to the horrors (or wonders) of marriage.
