Maybe Mel Gibson and Britney Spears will have now have something new to bond over.
After 28 years of marriage, the Mad Max star’s wife, Robyn Moore, has filed for divorce. The papers were signed on April 9, just before the Easter weekend. According to People sources, Mel was overheard yesterday announcing the news to several parishioners of the church he had built.
Although Robyn had been seen with Gibson recently (she reportedly joined him for Palm Sunday services last weekend), friends say the two have actually been separated for three years. The 53-year-old’s infamous DUI arrest also happened three years ago on July 28.
TMZ claims the two were married without a prenuptial agreement. If that is the case, Robyn, 53, could receive 1/2 of their community property under California state law. As of 2006, her husband was reportedly worth $900 million.
Moore - whose attorney, Laura Wasser, assisted Britney Spears with her divorce - is currently seeking joint physical and legal custody of their 9-year-old son, Thomas. (They also have six other children who are no longer minors.) She is also requesting spousal support and legal fees.

Parade: Celebrities Earn 115 Times More Than You
Share
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Music, Rumors
Parade magazine will soon release a “What People Earn” issue which details the income earned by Hollywood’s elite for the fiscal year of 2008, a year which was extremely rough on the finances of many average Americans.
The issue reports that Jennifer Aniston earned a hefty $27 million, which trumps the paltry $2.25 mill Britney Spears raked in during 2008. Taylor Swift out-earned Brit with $5.5 million, which still pales when compared to Beyonce’s stunning $80 million in earnings.
So who’s the biggest star of them all, the top earner for the year 2008? Is it Brad Pitt, Will Smith, Donald Trump? The winner, earning the most in the last calendar year, is Mattel with a whopping $3.3 billion. Barbie - still hot after all these years. Now, that’s star power.
According to the issue, celebrity salaries trump the average American’s yearly earnings by an extreme amount: the stars earn around 115 times more money than you do. Too bad about the recession - Barbie might’ve made it up to 4 billion on the year.

No Charges Yet for SYTYCD’s Da Silva
Share
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Legal Issues
Days after being arrested on investigation of sexual assault, choreographer Alex Da Silva was released from jail.
The 41-year-old So You Think You Can Dance contributor was taken into custody by police last Saturday as a result of several rape allegations. Four different victims had accused the dance instructor of assault between 2003 and 2009.
Although the complainants each reported similar stories, the Los Angeles County prosecutors office has not been able to file charges due to a lack of evidence. More women have since come forth with their own stories, so the investigation is not yet closed.
No word yet what this might mean - if anything - for the next season of SYTYCD. The FOX reality series starts up again on May 21.

So You Think You Can Dance Choreographer Accused of Rape

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Legal Issues
UPDATE: Prosecutors have not yet filed any charges. Da Silva will be released while the investigation continues.
This FOX scandal might just top anything ever connected to American Idol.
Over the weekend, So You Think You Can Dance choreographer Alex Da Silva was taken in by police on suspicion of sexual assault. The arrest stemmed from alleged incidents involving four different women.
Although the 41-year-old salsa dancer had been previously accused of sexual assault in 2003, 2004 and 2005, charges were never filed by the prosecutors office. After a new complaint on March 28, the LAPD went back and reinterviewed Alex’s previous accusers. Similar stories filed by all four women - all unknown to each other - led to Saturday’s arrest.
“The victims allege that he lured them to his homes in North Hollywood and Van Nuys,” a statement from the police department read. “He then used a ruse to get them into his bedroom, where he raped them.”

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Break-ups, Legal Issues, Rumors
Chris Brown, the R&B singer who allegedly assaulted his then-girlfriend Rihanna, will find himself in front of a judge this afternoon. Almost two months after the headline-making incident, Brown will enter his plea for two felonies. He’s being charged with assault with force likely to produce great bodily injury, and for making criminal threats.
This will be Brown’s second appearance in court to answer to the charges. Last month, Brown and his attorney requested (and received) a postponement. The hearing will now take place this afternoon, behind closed doors.
E! Online will offer a live feed of the proceedings, which will be available beginning at 3pm PT. According to the attorneys involved, Rihanna has been “a cooperating victim” for the prosecution. Currently, she’s staying in Barbados.
