Ruben Studdard Planning to Tie the Knot

American Idol season 2 winner Ruben Studdard is planning to make an honest woman out of fiance Surata Zuri McCants very soon. And by soon, I mean within the next 30 days.

The Idol crooner, who was nicknamed The Velvet Teddy Bear in his season of the show, picked up a marriage license in Birmingham, Alabama on Monday, according to People.com. The marriage license is good for 30 days, so expect to hear news of an Idol wedding before the end of the summer.
