What killed the two-year engagement between San Antonio Spurs forward Richard Jefferson and Kesha Ni'Cole Nichols? He's saying he didn't want to be another dreadful statistic: "It's so crazy, the divorce rate out there. If you aren't 100 percent certain about something, you shouldn't do it."[New York Post]

So he didn't. Instead he broke up via e-mail and left for Paris, where basketball buddies were waiting to take his mind off Kesha, whom he once referred to as "one of his best friends." Merci a lot. Should You Cancel Your Wedding? How To Tell

Debbie Rowe may be distant from her children—but it sounds like she loves them.

Last week she cried after seeing daughter Paris's emotional speech to the world at Michael Jackson's memorial, and now Debbie's blasting the media for reporting yesterday that she and the Jacksons have struck up a four million-dollar deal if she agrees to leave the children with Michael's mother Katherine Jackson (but strictly out of the care of his father Joe Jackson). Debbie Rowe Set To Strike A Lucrative Custody Deal

According to Limelife, yesterday's report wasn't accurate. Debbie's … Read More

The morning quickie: the perfect way to start your day. Read on for three interesting love and sex tidbits.

Are little white lies you tell to your first date actually harmless? [Nerve]

Looking at him in the dark, I wondered who he was and what all this tenderness meant. I had wanted only sex from him before, but now that we had done it, another desire had begun to stir within me, and I felt that dreadful swelling in my chest that always prefigures a monogamous relationship. Glen wasn't really so bad, I thought, watching him snore softly. He was kind … Read More

Hey, remember when big pharma came out with a drug that was a vaccine against HPV/ cervical cancer? And the only reason not to take it was that maybe it was an encouragement to have sex, possibly sans protection. It was sort of a red state/ blue state issue along the lines of abstinence-only sex ed. But curiously, we never heard about any of the negative effects of the drug. Oh, there has to be side-effects, right? Even cold medication has that sweet medicine-head side-effect. Beer helps people make bad decisions, et cetera. What gives, wonder drug?

Per the New York Post, Yankee Alex Rodriguez's wife, Cynthia Rodriguez, has filed for divorce. C-Rod (worst nickname ever) sited infidelity and neglect in her divorce petition. This story and its orbital proximity to Madonna are really beginning to get bizarre.

Divorce/ infidelity claims are pretty standard fair for the celeb set but this thing makes a hard right turn into the crazy town parking lot when Dodd Romero opened his mouth. In case you missed it, Romero, A-Rod's longtime trainer, claims that the slugger has been 'brainwashed' by Madonna and/or Kabbalah. Romero says that … Read More

Against all better advice, Peter Cook decided not to fold his hand and now his divorce from Christie Brinkley is in a real, live, public, divorce court. The fireworks began today as, according to the New York Post, Cook admitted that he hired teenager Diana Bianchi with the intention of getting her in the bed. Mission accomplished, dingus.

Evidently, Brinkley's legal team seeks to paint Cook in the most negative light possible and in the month that the trial is to progress we'll hear about Cook's every indiscretion from up to 60 witnesses. In this … Read More

We're surprised that this story didn't come from the Chicago Tribune or the Boston Herald or the LA Times or any other city that's jealous of New York. Nope, according to the New York Post, men in NYC are twice as likely to cheat as NYC women. Per the survey, 28% of men in a committed or married relationship have or are currently cheated. They go on to break down the percentages of that would forgive (men were slightly more likely to forgive, boys will be boys). They also describe the number of people that have checked email, … Read More

While we were checking out Hideki Matsui’s mystery bride, we bumped into a few more good quick hits on the New York Post:

1: Even though we like to get tough and promise no more Jennifer Aniston gossip until we get something concrete, we liked this one anyway. Word on the street is that Jennifer Aniston and Orlando Bloom are hanging out a bit. Or ‘Love (is) in bloom’ as the Post put it. Weren’t these two linked back in May but it fizzled? Why doesn’t she just join a church or cult that finds … Read More
