Let's just say I haven't heard from him since he texted me saying he was divorcing me December 31, 2011," Perry says in the latest issue of Vogue. She noted she loved him when they got married, but things unraveled fast.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West finally name their kid ...

For people with absolutely nothing better to do -- and that includes The Juice*, although we get paid for it -- the wait is finally over. Maybe. MediaTakeOut.com said it has the world exclusive release of the name of Kim Kardashian's daughter with Kanye West and it allegedly is ... Kaidence Donda West. It'll sure be hard to find a personalized bike license plate for that at Wal-Mart....

Charlie Sheen wants Selma Blair fired after she complains to 'Anger Management' producers

It's high time (no pun intended) for Charlie Sheen to get back in the gossip pages, so everyone's ecstatic to hear he tried to fire Anger Management costar Selma Blair. Why? Just because she complained about his work habits?

Turns out Sheen was none to happy Blair told producers she was sick of his constant late arrivals to the set and apparent lack of commitment, TMZ says. Sheen apparently complained right back to FX, saying he's the one who has to learn 40 pages of dialogue per episode, while she only has two, and wanted her fired. Not only that, but he argued he was unwilling to work if she was allowed back. ...

The Mirror had reported that Saatchi put his hands in Nigella's face, tweaked her nose and placed one then both hands around her neck at Scott's, a popular restaurant....

Robert Downey Jr. frightens boy who wanted to meet Iron Man

The viral photo of the week -- nay, the month ... no the YEAR -- has got to be this one of one child's crushing disappointment in meeting Robert Downey Jr. If you haven't seen it yet, well, there it is, right up there.

The story goes that 1 1/2-year-old Iron Man fan Jaxson Denno got a chance to meet Downey, who was in the western Massachusetts towns of Sunderland and Shelburne Falls to shoot his movie The Judge.

Melissa McCarthy finally responds to Rex Reed's name-calling

Comic actress Melissa McCarthy is on top of the world these days, so she can finally speak freely in some interviews. Like taking down movie critic Rex Reed for making fun of her weight in one of his reviews back in February.

The 42-year-old was very tactful in a New York Times feature in which Reed's review of Identity Thief for the New York Observer came up. Reed called her "tractor-sized, " a "hippo" and “a gimmick comedian who has devoted her short career to being obese and obnoxious with equal success.” McCarthy didn't respond when the review came out then, but told the Times her thought at the time was "Really? Why would someone okay that?"...

'Source Code' actress Michelle Monaghan pregnant with her second child

Source Code actress Michelle Monaghan is pregnant with her second child, Us Weekly says. Pregnancy announcements make everyone happy! Well, maybe not Kanye West ...

We'll confess to originally thinking this was Tom Brady's ex-girlfriend, whom he knocked up and umped for Giselle Bundchen, but the was Bridget Moynahan. Monaghan, a 37-year-old former model didn't confirm the news herself, but a source told the glossy that's what happened, and that's good enough for us.
