PHILADELPHIA Bam Margera -- professional skateboarder, prankster and MTV star -- just earned himself another title: husband. Margera, 27, who became a punk hero on the shows "Jackass" and "Viva La Bam," married childhood friend Missy Rothstein, 26, in downtown Philadelphia on Saturday.
The couple wed in front of about 350 friends and family members -- and an MTV crew.
Margera is making his path to marriage into a nine-part reality television series called "Bam's Unholy Union." The wedding itself will be shown in the final episode in early April.
The festivities included a performance by rocker Iggy Pop, as well as appearances by skateboard legend Tony Hawk and James Iha, formerly of the alternative rock band Smashing Pumpkins.
The couple will honeymoon in Dubai.

I think he was pushed to take matters into his own hands. I have a teenage son and if he was involved with a drug dealer I would be furious and try anything to save him like this father did for his daughter. Why do police often say they can't do anything until it's too late? Whether it be a drug dealer or an abusive spouse, the police can't seem to do anything until something really bad happens. In this case they could have raided the drug dealers home and arrested him. The whole town knew what was going on in that house but yet the police chose to do nothing. Release this man and give him a medal for doing the right thing by his daughter. I can't wait to see the episode on W5, I will certainly be watching this one.
