After a marriage lasting 2 and a half years pop star Ashlee Simpson and Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz have filed for divorce. They have reportedly filed documents in the LA superior court citing "irreconcilable differences" as the reason behind their parting.

The singer-actress, who has a 2-year-old son, Bronx, with Wentz, is seeking primary physical custody of the child in addition to sharing legal custody with her ex. The pair released a statement saying: "After careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to file for divorce," the couple said through a spokesperson. "We remain friends and deeply committed and loving parents to our son Bronx, whose happiness and well-being remains our No. 1 priority. We ask that everyone honor our privacy as we navigate this next phase of our lives."

So another celebrity coupel split up and whether there are other reasons behind the parting they are yet to be revealed.

Kim Kardashian froze in fear when Prince beckoned her to join him onstage on his Madison Square Garden concert on Monday night, then swiftly told her to leave when she didn't shake her booty to the music. The legendary pop star had been pulling audience members onstage all night and declared that Kardashian was "too sexy" before she sauntered onstage.

But when she finally came up, all she did was smile and clap her hands while he danced around her. Then he yelled, "Get off the stage," practically flinging her back down the stairs. But apparently he brought her back to redeem herself later that night while he played piano. Once upon a time there was a half-Armenian, booty-licious reality star who dreamed of meeting a famous prince. Then one day, her dream came true. "About to start getting ready for the Prince concert!!!! I am soooo excited!!!!!!" she told a little social-networking bird.

So a somewhat amusing turn of events at the Prince concert for the socialite and not the reaction she was looking for from the pop icon.

J. Paul Getty III has died today at the age of 54. He is the grandson of oil tycoon Jean Paul Getty and his son is an actor that has performed in many films including the project greenlight film feast alongside Clu Gulager. He earned the nickname the "golden hippy" due to his bohemian lifestyle, left wing views and long hair.

He reached the pop culture conscious when he was kidnapped in 1973 while in Rome. Many people believed it was a plot by Paul to get money from his grandfather. His grandfather refused the ransom demands until an ear showed up, the kidnappers claiming it belonged to J. Paul Getty III. Getty’s grandfather finally negotiated the ransom and paid $2.9 million. J. Paul Getty III was found and many of the kidnappers were arrested, although much of the ransom money was lost.

So the well known actor and name has passed away and has left behind a name that will be well renowned for some time to come.

Valentines day 2011

Valentines day 2011

So Valentine's day is imminent and we've all been considering what to get our loved ones. It's almost a no brainer what men choose to buy for their lover, usually flowers, chocolate and maybe a balloon or stuffed toy. Getting a gift for a man is a lot more mentally trying.

Some ideas for the man in your life could be: 5lb Gummy bears; which will make him want to relive his youth with candy alongside candy such as chocolate covered fortune cookie, with your own personalized message; chocolate covered strawberries(pictured left),gift baskets full of different sorts of candy treats; if he's a football fan you could get him a a special NFL or soccer team dispenser with his favourite team on. If he's not really a candy/chocolate fan you could buy him a set of whiskey stones which cool down a whiskey without watering it down which ice cubes do.

So certainly plenty more ideas that could be taken from these few and hopefully you can find something really fitting for your man this valentines.

superbowl commercials

superbowl commercials

This year's series of Super Bowl commercials saw a glut of somewhat violent displays inculding Roseanne getting knocked over by a log for snickers and grizzly bears smashing a car up for McDonald's. Cars.com poisoned a guy, body-scrambled another and shot a cowboy full of arrows.

Pepsi had two separate commercials that ended with the same punchline: Someone being hit in the face by a full can of Pepsi Max. (A possible tagline could be, “Pepsi Max: Tasty and Concussive!”) Also, House threw his cane at an adorable child, a pug dog smashed through a door for Doritos, and that terrifying green android apparently stole someone’s thumbs. Companies have to worry about people not paying attention or flipping over to the Puppy Bowl, and the fastest way to get people’s attention is (apparently) to throw a can of Pepsi in someone’s face.

So it appears companies this year are being far more aggressive LITERALLY, with their mode of commercial and it certainly would have grabbed peoples attention.

He's never watched the sci fi epic "Star Wars", but Max Page (pictured left) has found fame as a mini version of the legendary scree villain, Darth Vader. The 6 year old landed a star role in one of the super bowl's most popular TV adverts which was or the 2012 Volkswagen Pasat.

In the commercial he tries, without success, to use "The Force" to affect an array of household items - and even the family dog. Page, who has appeared in a few regional commercials and has a role on "The Young and the Restless," didn't know when he snagged the part that it would be for the Super Bowl. "It wasn't until halfway through the first day of filming" that we found out, his mother, Jennifer, said on NBC's "Today" show on Monday. "We were just thrilled. We thought it was his first national commercial."

So a dream fame ticket for the youngster and will surely go onto bigger and better things in the acting realm on the back of it.

joan rivers go daddy

joan rivers go daddy

You're probably aware now of the GoDaddy.co tv advert from yesterday during the super bowl which presents famous comedienne Joan Rivers as the .co girl. Of course that digital magic that gave her that body, however many people were misled by the body shots Go Daddy presented before the commercial aired.

So who does that body belong to? It’s Tabitha Taylor, who starred in 2009′s most watched Super Bowl commercial (according to Tivo). In the “Enhancement” commercial she wears the green dress. At the end of the commercial she starts to show off her “enhancement” before the commercial urges viewers to see more at GoDaddy.com. The Enhancement ad also has cameos from Go Daddy founder Bob Parsons (who sat to the right of the panel) as well as Christine Jones, Executive Vice President, General Counsel & Corporate Secretary (who sat next to Danica Patrick).

So an amusing alteration to the famous comedienne and the transformation was so lifelike people were actually questioning whether it was real or not.
