Britney
Divorce |
TMZ reports: Britney Spears has filed a petition
for divorce from Kevin Federline. Spears filed legal papers today in Los
Angeles County Superior Court, citing "irreconcilable differences." In
her petition, Spears asks for both legal and physical custody of the couple's
two children, one-year old Sean Preston and two-month old Jayden James,
with Federline getting reasonable visitation rights.
As for money, sources tell TMZ the couple,
who married in Sept. 2004, has an iron-clad prenup. Not surprisingly, Spears
is waiving her right to spousal support. She's also asking the judge to
make each party pay their own attorney's fees.
Spears gives the date of separation as
yesterday, the same day she flaunted her incredible revamped physique during
a surprise appearance on David Letterman's show. Sources tell TMZ there
was no single reason for Britney pulling the plug, rather it was "a string
of events." [see full story for more including a copy of the filing]-

GNR
Cancellation Mystery |
TuneLab reports: So which was it? According
to a Guns N' Roses management spokesperson the bands show in Portland,
ME last night, November 6th, was canceled due to "limitations imposed by
local fire marshals" which "made it impossible for the band to perform
their show to usual high standards that their fans deserve". A somewhat
believable excuse until WGME-TV reported the show was canceled after only
3,000 of the 6,500 tickets were sold.[see full story for more]-
