Britney Spears and Kevin Federline


Britney Spears, 24, filed for divorce from her husband Kevin Federline in October on the grounds of 'irreconcilable differences', but I think that's just a Southern gal being polite.

What she probably meant was, "I'm filing on the grounds that my bum of a husband, who has already impregnated and ditched another woman, is pretty useless. He can't hold down a real job, he smokes and drinks, and has quite the wandering eye." The good news is that K-Fed, 28, will most likely not contest Britney's request for custody of the boys, seeing as he isn't exactly father of the year material.

Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock


After four very short months of marriage, Pamela Anderson filed for divorce from singer Kid Rock in November. "Pamela filed for divorce last week. It wasn't a happy Thanksgiving," Pam's rep, Tracy Nguyen told People magazine.

Pamela and Kid (real name: Robert Richie) each filed their own divorce petitions, both claiming irreconcilable differences. Let's just hope she didn't make the same mistake as she did with ex-husband Tommy Lee when she tattooed his name on her ring finger.
