1. FAKEOUT! The singer offered the couple (whom she’d just met) a stay in a Deluxe Room at The Dorchester. Not too shabby either! However, the newlyweds declined her offer for undisclosed reasons.


2. FACT! The last hotel built south of Interstate 30 in Dallas was the Belmont Hotel, which opened in 1946. The NYLO Dallas South Side is housed in a historic building with 10-foot-high ceilings, and features a rooftop pool.


3. FAKEOUT! The hotel incorporated elements of the handbag -- not the purse itself -- in the afternoon tea, by decorating the tea set with the bag's signature bow and "reinterpreting the sweet yet sophisticated style of the handbag" in the tea's tasty treats. Marc Jacobs afternoon tea will be served daily at the hotel's MO Bar between 3 and 5:30 p.m. through the end of September.


4. FACT! The resort worked with master distiller Chris Morris from Woodford to create a specialty bourbon with hints of citrus, cocoa, and spice. Guests and non-guests can now enjoy the drink at the resort’s cigar bar.


5. FACT! The singer’s staff requests that hotel management "empties the minibar of all alcohol," and refrains from giving her “gifts of wine or any other alcoholic beverages."
