Clooney and fiancee declare intentions

Also in Tattle: A warrant for Wiz, rockers say Scotland OK in UK, Lady Gaga gets high, then sick in Denver, and Larry David.

 G EORGE CLOONEY and fiancee Amal Alamuddin have posted a legal notice declaring their intention to marry in Italy.

Clooney and the Beirut-born London lawyer announced their engagement in April, although the pair has not yet announced a date for their nuptials.

A spokesman at the register office at London's Chelsea Old Town Hall confirmed yesterday that the pair posted a legal document for a British national who is marrying abroad. A photo of the notice published by the Daily Mirror showed the dynamic duo's names, ages (he's 53, she's 36) and occupations.

Gee, Wiz is in trouble

An arrest warrant has been issued for Amber Rose's hubby, rapper Wiz Khalifa, after he skipped a court date on a marijuana-possession charge in west Texas.

Online court records show that Wiz (a/k/a Cameron Thomaz) failed to appear for a scheduled arraignment in an El Paso County misdemeanor court. So, County Court-at-Law Judge Ricardo Herrera issued a bench warrant for his arrest.

The case started May 25, when Khalifa was arrested at El Paso International Airport after airport security officers reported finding a small canister of weed on him.

Wiz had been departing after appearing at a local music fest. Instead, he was charged with misdemeanor possession of marijuana and was released after posting $300 bail.

Rock & rule!

NME.com reports that Mick Jagger, Sting, Bryan Ferry, David Gilmour, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Cliff Richard, Judi Dench, Helena Bonham Carter, Eddie Izzard, Patrick Stewart, Steve Coogan, David Attenborough, Stephen Hawking and Simon Cowell (could be the only time you're going to see those two names next to one another) are among a list of more than 200 British celebs who have signed a letter as part of the "Let's Stay Together" campaign, urging Scottish voters to keep Scotland as part of the United Kingdom.

The independence referendum will be held on Sept. 18.

Al Green has not weighed in on the "Let's Stay Together" issue.

Singer single

You know it's a slow Tattle day when we're forced to write about a "real" housewife.

If Ramona Singer, of "The Real Housewives of New York City," walked through the newsroom with a name tag, we would have no idea who she was (although our colleagues Lauren McCutcheon and Joe Berkery would be very excited).

Same goes for her husband, Mario.

Well, it breaks our heart to report that the couple is splitting.

"I have decided to move on with my life without Mario," Ramona tweeted yesterday. "I tried my best to make my marriage work. I am excited for the new chapter in my life."

People mag reports that Ramona initially filed for divorce in January after she discovered Mario with his much-younger girlfriend at their home in the Hamptons.

But then they got back together.

Now? Poof!

"Ramona did not want this divorce," an unnamed source told People back in January. "Ramona loves her life. She loves Mario. She loves the image of her being one of the only ones who was married for that long. She loves to throw that in everyone's face, like LuAnn [de Lesseps], to say how perfect her life was. But everyone knew Mario was a cheater. . . . She looked the other way."

Not anymore.

* According to ABC 7 Denver, Lady Gaga was hospitalized for altitude sickness Wednesday after performing at the Pepsi Center.

Confirming the hospital stay, Gaga posted a selfie on Instagram wearing an oxygen mask, said People, which has a staff of attentive hamsters monitoring thousands of such accounts.

"Altitude Sickness is no Joke!" she wrote on Instagram, as a word of advice to her monsters.

* No need to curb your enthusiasm, theatergoers: Larry David is coming to Broadway.

The co-creator of "Seinfeld" will star in "Fish in the Dark," according to the New York Times.

If you're guessing that the fish is a low-salt lox or perhaps pickled herring and that the show is about "nothing," you're wrong.

Set to run at Shubert Theater starting March 5, the play is a comedy about a death in the family and was inspired by the death of a friend's father, says the Hollywood Reporter.

"I haven't been in a play since the eighth grade, when I did 'Charley's Aunt,' " David said. "I seem to remember wearing a dress."
