It's official!

After 17 years of marriage, George Lopez, and his wife, Ann Serrano, who filed for divorce back in November, are officially split!

The court documents finalizing the paperwork were filed this weekend.

So sad that after so many years they couldn't make it work, but here's hoping that they can keep it amicable for their kid!

Stay strong, guys!

Goodness, 2011 has NOT started out well for her!

After receiving reports earlier in the week that Jaime Pressly and her husband of just over a year, Simran Singh, already split, it's now been confirmed that the two have filed for divorce.

According to court documents filed in El Lay on January 21st, the actress cited irreconcilable differences, and is asking that her surname be restored to 'Pressly.'

So unfortunate, especially given her recent DUI and trouble with the IRS.

Keep your chin up, bb.

Hopefully things will turn around soon - it's only a matter of time before they do.

Stay strong.

We hope that her family is spending as much time with her during this period of her life as they are worrying about control of her finances.

Singer Etta James has been revealed to be suffering from dementia and undergoing treatment for leukemia, according to court documents in a civil case in Riverside County Superior Court regarding her husband, Artis Mills, who wants more control of her finances than her will allows.

The papers reveal that the 72-year-old is being treated for her conditions with full-time care at her Woodcrest home, where she requires assistance with meals, dressing and hygiene. She can no longer sign her name, but she does still recognize her husband and children.

As of now, her will, written in 2008, gives her sons, Donto and Sametto James, as will as the former's wife Christy, power of attorney, which Mills is now challenging, and asking that he can move just over $1 million from three of her accounts into a joint account with him, or to him alone.

He also wants the power to close the accounts and transfer the money in his name, so he can keep supporting his wife's full care treatment at home, because as he states in the documents, James expressed that "if she ever became disabled, she did not wish to be placed in an institutional nursing facility as long as they had the money to keep her at home."

Meanwhile, Donto has responded in a court declaration that he has no problem with the money being released for her care, but he would prefer that the transfers be overseen by a third party, "to avoid present and future family conflict and discrepancies."

A hearing will take place later today to discuss the matter further.

We think that her son has the right idea!

Something about all of this makes us SLIGHTLY uncomfortable, but hopefully everything can resolved amicably, with the focus remaining on Etta's wellness and comfort during this truly sad time.

You're in our thoughts, bb.

Xanadu star Marty Thomas filed papers in NYC to reveal the person behind the salacious Twitter feed, bwayanonymous.

"Which Avenue Q cast member gave Marty Thomas crabs?" Tweeted bwayanonymous.

Of course, Thomas called the accusations "false" and "malicious" while denying the claim.

"I do not suffer from, nor have I ever suffered from a sexually transmitted disease," he wrote in the court papers. "Clearly, there is no doubt that other people in the Broadway community saw and were affected by the statement."

The anonymous Twitter feed has since been disabled, but not before a few parting words.

Bwayanonymous Tweeted:

"Before 'damages' even become relevant, you have to prove something was libelous or slanderous in nature. So if someone posts something that is actually true, or posts it in a way that doesn't assert it as a fact, then it isn't libel, or slander. It just means that you have to stop acting like a moron if people finding out about it damage your career."

Yikes!

It's getting ugly!

Adam Dell recently revealed himself to be the father of Padma Lakshmi's newborn, Krishna, and now is actively trying to become a part of his daughter's life.

However, the Top Chef hostess if having NONE of it!

A source says:

"Her relationship with Dell was nothing more than an on-again, off-again fling. She moved on months ago. The only role he will have in her life going forward is as the biological father of her child. She wants nothing more to do with him. Adam … signed an agreement spelling out visitation and should live by it. Padma is."

Eek. Although we think it would be nice if both parents could actively be involved, if he signed away his rights to his child, it's not cool that he's trying to backtrack now.

What do U think?? Should Adam be a part of Krishna's life??
