Rock guitarist Nita Strauss, best known for her tours with Demi Lovato and Alice Cooper, has tied the knot with her long-time partner and manager Josh Villalta in an intimate yet star-studded wedding ceremony. The 37-year-old musician exchanged vows with Villalta on May 4 at The Hollywood Roosevelt in Los Angeles, surrounded by 120 close friends and family members, including some big names from the music and wrestling industries.
Among the notable guests in attendance were wrestling legend Mick Foley, Demi Lovato, and Alice Cooper, who have all been close associates of Strauss’s music and entertainment career. Foley, in particular, has been a long-time friend and mentor to Strauss, who has often shown her appreciation for his WWE legacy. In fact, she has even worn his iconic wrestling shirt on stage as a tribute to their friendship.
Strauss, who is no stranger to the world of professional wrestling, has been a fan of the sport since she was introduced to it by Villalta in 2011. Since then, she has gone on to perform at various WWE events, including WrestleMania 34 in New Orleans, where she played Shinsuke Nakamura’s entrance music. She has also performed at WWE Evolution and had her song, Mariana Trench, featured as the theme song for NXT TakeOver: WarGames.
The rocker’s love story with Villalta is a romantic one, with the two getting engaged on stage last year. Strauss has spoken about her desire for a simple and intimate wedding, which was beautifully captured in the elegant ceremony at The Hollywood Roosevelt.
While the focus is currently on her new life with Villalta, it remains to be seen when Strauss will next appear in the WWE ring. With her music career going strong and her passion for wrestling still burning bright, fans can only hope that it won’t be long before she returns to the WWE universe. For now, congratulations are in order for the happy couple as they go on this new chapter in their lives.
