Celebrity Magazines such as Star Magazine and the National Enquirer make it their business to report on the love lives of celebrities. Up to the minute news and information on new relationships and couples who have called it quits. While celebrities are definitely different from us, it is definitely proven in the way they choose to end their relationships. Though sometime funny, celebrities can sometime choose the tackiest ways to end their relationships.
Breakups via television
Laura Dern and Billy Bob Thorton had dates for a few years and in fact were engaged. Unfortunately, for Dern, Thorton became smitten with Angelina Jolie on the set of their film Pushing Tin. The two married shortly thereafter but failed to inform Dern. She found out with the rest of the world as we watched in horror on one of our favorite celebrity gossip shows.
At the time, Laura Dern and Billy Bob were sharing a house. To make matters worse when Dern wanted to retrieve her things they were already boxed and put in storage, unceremoniously removed from the house the way Thorton removed her from his life.
Express Mail Break Ups
Sylvester Stallone dated model Jennifer Flavin but decided the relationship was not working for him. Unsure of how to break up with Jennifer, Sly decided to write a long heart felt letter to his girlfriend. Maybe because he was nervous about what her reaction would be Mr. Stallone decided it was best for him to be far away from Jennifer when she read the letter. The letter was delivered via express mail, and Jennifer found out the relationship was caput from the Federal Express Man.
Technology Driven Break Ups
We live in the information age, and it stands to reason that the demise of a relationship may take a futuristic turn. The world waited with baited breath for Britney Spears to end her marriage to Kevin Federline. Perhaps it is just a case of an individual getting their just desserts. The relationship between Britney Spears and Federline began when his girlfriend Shar Jackson was in her third trimester of pregnancy with his son. Perhaps Shar did not see it coming, but it is almost certain that Federline did not see it coming when Spears informed him that she wished to void their union via text message.
Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson were the darlings of MTV and famous for their television show Newlyweds. Unfortunately for Nick and Jessica their marriage could not withstand the strain or attention from the media. Rumors of a troubled relationship persisted for sometime before the couple called it quits Thanksgiving 2005. Rumor has it Jessica told Nick emailed the news to Nick.
Ending a relationship is usually never easy, whether you are famous or just a regular Joe. However, a break up should be done as painlessly as possible. Hopefully the next time Jess, Britney, or Billy Bob decide to break up with someone, the pages of Star Magazine or The National Enquirer will report that they at least did it in person.

You? A Writer? You? A Musician? Are you Kidding Me?
By: parker | 16-09-2008
I would like to know when did you become a writer and a musician? Many people already know that you run a puppy mill so that's no secret. You aren't a "writer". Your 'writings' are filled with vicious lies, accusations, hate, anger, hostility, revenge, deceitfulness, fantasies about what you WISH your life was like. Everything you post on the Internet is nothing but fabrication. You cannot prove ANYTHING about yourself. A "musician?" When did you become a 'musician'? In your one of your fantastic dreams? You are NOT a musician, you DON'T know how to play any instruments, you want people to believe that you hang out with bands and that you have always been gifted? I know you you black hearted demon. ONE TIME in your ENTIRE life you were a 'singer' in a GARAGE band. You are so full of yourself and so egotistical that you put photos of yourself from back in the 80's when you were thin from using crystal meth. Why don't you put up photos of what you look like NOW? Because you are a fat, ugly butch looking side show freak? YOU ARE NOTHING!!!! N-O-T-H-I-N-G!!!! YOU and your PUPPY MILL are GOING DOWN!!!!!!!!!

Question - Palin?s Troopergate Scandal
By: rexacrouch | 06-09-2008
BACKGROUND. ?Ms. Palin, after pledging for weeks that she would cooperate with the investigation, has in recent days begun to challenge the Legislature?s jurisdiction in the inquiry.? NYT 6 SEP 08
?The increasingly adversarial relationship between the lawmakers supervising the inquiry and Ms. Palin?s office stands in sharp contrast with the spirit of cooperation she had promised to bring to the inquiry, even as she questioned the need for an outside investigator.? NYT 6 SEP 08
QUESTION. After 8 years of Clintons and 8 years of Bushes are we supposed to be use to politicians claiming executive privilege to avoid testifying against themselves? I thought the McCain Palin ticket was trying to usurp Obama?s theme of change but I am seeing the McSame thing going on as I have seen for the last 16 years. This is the same thing. Am I wrong?
