Kelly Rutherford is Getting Divorced
Kelly Rutherford, who stars on Gossip Girls has been making news lately, first with her newly-announced pregnancy and now with the shocking news that she is divorcing her husband, Daniel Giersch. Who knows if this is an extra dose of pregnancy hormones or what as ‘irreconcilable differences’ always means ‘we just don’t like each other anymore’ to me. Either way, with their 2-year old son Hermes and another on the way, it’s a very sad story indeed. From People,
“Pregnant Gossip Girl actress Kelly Rutherford and her husband of two years, German entrepreneur Daniel Giersch, are calling it quits.
Rutherford, 40, who is three months pregnant, filed for divorce on Dec. 30, citing “irreconcilable differences,” according to papers obtained by PEOPLE.
Giersch filed for legal separation the same day, a source tells PEOPLE.
Giersch and Rutherford, who is expected on the Gossip set in New York Tuesday, also have a 2-year-old son, Hermes.
This is Rutherford’s second marriage.
Rutherford’s rep couldn’t immediately be reached for comment.”
There’s really not too much to say on this one.”
I hadn’t even heard of Kelly Rutherford until just a few weeks ago when it came out that she was still breastfeeding Hermes and I have to say, I’m really not liking her all that much. I do think that irreconcilable differences is a big crock and the fact that this is her second marriage also has me doubting her desire for a real commitment. Who knows though, the fact that he filed for legal separation on the same day does also show some bitterness on his side. That is extremely bad timing for them to get fed up with each other though.

Just weeks after rumors that they were set to walk down the aisle, it’s been confirmed that Katy Perry and Travis McCoy are definitely over. It seems that because Katy has been so busy taking the world by storm hit after hit and Travis trying to do much of the same with his group, Gym Class Heroes, there was just really no time in between any of it to withhold some sort of relationship. As so happens in Hollywood, they started bickering and eventually broke up. From US,
It’s so sad that John Travolta and Kelly Preston are meeting 2009 with tragedy as they mourn the passing of their son, Jett Travolta, who died on Friday after seemingly having a seizure while the family was on vacation in the Bahamas. The family has not yet released an official statement and although there are some different theories on the cause of death, it does seem to be a seizure that was the root of his death. US has details,
So what would you think about it if Paris Hilton hooked up with George Clooney? It’s an odd combination but one that I might not be all that uncomfortable with. Paris turns into whoever she’s dating - she was the proper princess when she was engaged to that clone of hers, she became a rocker chic when she hooked up with Benji Madden and I think she’ll become a nice mixture of the two if this thing with Georgey-Boy keeps going much longer. He’s got a small bad-ass side of him but he’s also so incredibly charming and can be just as proper as Paris when he needs to be. Never mind the fact that both of them are so incredibly hot that I think they’ll look amazing together. From Celebedge,

By singing a duet together and then getting a divorce. You gotta hand it to the stars these days who think that it’s appropriate to plan out when you’re going to get divorced, and then decide on huge, grand gestures to end the marriage with - such as singing a duet together just before you sign the final divorce papers. Yes, this is very reminiscent of Madonna and Guy Ritchie. From Celebitchy,
It wasn’t that long ago when it was announced that Joel Madden and Nicole Richie would be wed on their daughter, Harlow’s, first birthday and it seems that they may be planning another big event for the occasion as well - another conception. Well, these two certainly like to get things done all with one shot, don’t they? From Pop Crunch,
Bernie Madoff, who is a big Wall Street guru, was charged just recently on December 11 for fraud and it seems that among others such as Steven Spielberg, Kevin Bacon and his wife, Kyra Sedgwick may be the most recent victims of his crimes. Madoff was involved in a Ponzi scheme, which is collecting money from investors and paying off the old investors with money from the new. While the total estimated amount of fraud that Madoff is being charged with equals about 50 billion, Bacon may have contributed to a lot of that as it’s rumored that he has lost just about everything he and his wife have.

Everybody wants Britney Spears to hook up with somebody it seems and she can’t even be spotted with someone of the opposite gender and not have people whispering about it. Now reports are coming out that she may be dating her choreographer, Sandip Soparrkar. The two apparently became close while he worked with her on her video for “Womanizer” and she likes him so much that she even chose to spend 3 days over the holidays with him on a romantic holiday. From Gossip Girls,
I guess this New Year’s Eve will really have Madonna getting rid of the old and ringing in the new as it’s rumored that she’s dating someone new. Bye, bye
