Oh, how carefree Katy Perry and Russell Brand were back in October 2010. 'Let's get married in India and have an elephant at the wedding!' 'We don't need a prenup, we're madly in love!'
Katy Perry is single and ready to mingle ... with Tim Tebow! The singer was all over Indianapolis this weekend for the Super Bowl, where she made a couple cracks about the Denver Broncos quarterback.

They may be the among the most famous and beautiful women in the world, but, like anyone else, even A-list celebs go through the breakup blues. From Nicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon's retrospective revelations to Jennifer Love Hewitt's pragmatic advice, all of these women are proof that, while breakups may feel like the end of the world, they are really just the beginning to something new.
Whatever happened in Katy Perry's short 14-month marriage could be cause for concern. First, Russell Brand blindsides the gorgeous blue-eyed Perry with a divorce on December 30. And now, the the 36-year-old actor is planning to write a tell-all memoir, according to Us Weekly.
There's already reports that Katy Perry has backed out of tomorrow night's People's Choice Awards. Is it because she's flying to the UK to try to save her marriage to Russell Brand?
In case you've been out of iPhone contact for the past couple weeks, here's the latest: Over New Year's weekend, Russell Brand filed for divorce from Katy Perry. This is just musing and speculation, but what if Katy and Russell began the exit from the "honeymoon phase" of their romance, and realized their values and life goals were totally different? How can you avoid that mistake in your life?
It's no secret that Russell Brand is a bit of a sex addict. In fact, when he and his now-ex Katy Perry were first married, rumors abounded that he would probably falter in his marriage because of his sexual insatiability. While it doesn't appear that another woman was the cause of their recent split, it does seem that Russell may have grown tired of his ho-hum life between the sheets—that is, when the two were actually together in 2011!
Today we learned that another celebrity marriage is ending; Katy Perry & Russell Brand will be filing for divorce. It's big news because they're young and famous, because the marriage only lasted 14 months and because they always seemed an unlikely couple. But marriages are ending every day among us, especially as the new year begins. As someone who's never been married, it makes me wonder. Do people get so caught up in the whirlwind romance that they don't think about the idea of lifetime commitment? Or do they go into the marriage thinking, "I hope this works, but good thing for 'irreconcilable differences' in California"?
After much speculation and a Christmas spent in different parts of the world, Russell Brand filed for divorce from his wife of a little over a year, Katy Perry. And while some of their fans might be shocked by the split, we had a feeling these two crazy kids might have been rushing into things when they became engaged in December 2009, just three months after they started dating. Below are five reasons we saw their divorce coming from miles away.
When Katy Perry, 27, first met Russell Brand, 36, in 2009, she hit him with a bottle. On New Year's Eve 2010, he proposed to her on the back of an elephant in India while fireworks were going off. Needless to say, this is not your average couple. But this Christmas, there were no fireworks and elephants, just a holiday spent thousands of miles apart.
