KATY PERRY AND RUSSELL BRAND: THE ODDS WERE AGAINST THEM
“Friends” of Katy Perry and Russell Brand seem to be leaking lots of stories about their divorce to the press and it’s hard to know who to believe. When they were photographed on different continents at Christmas we KNEW the marriage was in serious trouble. Still, it WAS shocking when Russell filed for divorce this week and it seemed like an ungentlemanly thing to do. In civilized break-ups, the wife is encouraged to do the filing. But TMZ sources say that Katy WANTED Russell to file because of her religious beliefs, and they both planned to be out of town when he did it. Why Russell would choose to be in London – the only place with almost as many paparazzi as Hollywood, is unclear. When you think about it, maybe it wasn’t a good idea for a minister’s daughter to marry an admitted former heroin, alcohol, and sex addict in the first place.

There’s no doubt that Terrence Howard, 42, is going through one of the nastiest celebrity divorces of the year. He secretly married Michelle Ghent a year ago and she filed for divorce citing multiple violent confrontations. Terrence denies abusing his wife and shot back with accusations that his wife “hates black people” and a long list of insults and violence on her part. Who’s right? It’s too bad, but the handsome charismatic actor has a history of assault. Howard not only exaggerates his education, but he was sued by a composer he attacked while doing a Broadway show. In 2009 he was arrested for assaulting his estranged wife and later was arrested for assaulting a flight attendant. And he thought Chris Brown’s beating of Rihanna was no big thing! Something is VERY wrong with Terrence Howard.
KAT VON D DOESN’T WANT TO SEE JESSE JAMES’ SMILING FACE IN THE MIRROR
Now that Kat Von D has dumped sleazeball Jesse James for the last time, she has turned her attention to the tattoo of his face as a kid in the 5th grade that she foolishly tattooed on her rib cage last July. At the time she did it to “prove her love” and quite a fuss was made over it on her TV show. Now she has quietly started to remove the large tattoo and all final traces of her former fiancee.
JENNIFER ANISTON’S HANDPRINTS HAVE DISAPPEARED
Jennifer Aniston fans needn’t bother looking for her hand and footprints in front of Grauman’s Chinese Theater despite the fact that she had a ceremony there in July. The theater owners have increased the number of celebrity handprint ceremonies each year and they’ve run out of space. Fans of Old Hollywood are outraged because Tom Cruise is next to Marilyn Monroe. When Alvin and the Chipmunks had a ceremony, there were MANY complaints from film buffs. Nowadays, having a ceremony doesn’t mean your prints will be installed in the coveted forecourt of the theater. Jennifer’s cement block along with Mickey Rourke’s and many others are in limbo. The theater owners are mulling future placement.

Not long ago, George Clooney scolded Stacy Keibler for tweeting so much, but he made up for it over the holidays. He and Stacy are in Cabo San Lucas where they’ve been hanging on the beach with Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber. George is living up to his generous reputation – he reportedly gave Stacy diamond jewelry and an Hermes bag for Christmas, among other things. And according to In Touch, there is a Porsche in the very near future for her. Since George has been giving Stacy a higher profile, she’s been flooded with money making offers for appearances etc. Ironically since she cut back on tweeting, Stacy has more followers than EVER.
