Rumor #1 says....
The split occurred because Edmonds (formerly married to another R&B singer, Babyface) would not sign a prenup and the relationship ended.
Considering how very cool Ms. Edmonds was during her first divorce... by all accounts, fair to Babyface and devoted to their sons from the marriage...this doesn't seem believeable to us as reason for the break up.
Rumor #2 says...
from canada's Gazette: Here's the deal on Eddie Murphy's quick split from Tracey Edmonds, two weeks after they exchanged vows in Bora Bora on New Year's Day: In Touch Weekly mag says he got mad because Tracey wouldn't take his name.
She was born Tracey McQuarn but has used Edmonds since her first marriage, to R&B singer Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds. Those two have two sons who use "Edmonds," so Tracey wants to keep that name, too.
She and Murphy were going to have a new ceremony stateside, the Bora Bora one being of dubious legality, but when this issue arose, the whole relationship exploded.
Okay, we know Eddie Murphy... we know Eddie Murphy's ego... rumor #2 makes sense.
Next....
Let's talk Cruise Control..
Yes, with that haircut Katie looks as if she is in the neighborhood of 40... but, we concede, she does look like a very good looking 40 year old. Her body is awesome. Her face is gorgeous and her style choices... though a bit too mature for her age... are lovely. Sans the haircut (because who wants to look like 40? Unless of course you are 60!) the darling girl has a style worth emulating ("copying" for those scholastically challenged..).
Darling Kate's comeback movie choice thus far has proven to be flawed. Mad Money??? Distinctively mediocre. With her new look she should consider a Jane Austen flick.
Now for the good stuff... Tom... Scientology... Nicole...
from entertainmentwise.com:
Morton (from his new unauthorized Tom Cruise bio book) writes: "Those who saw the family close up concluded that Tom was much more comfortable and enthusiastic as a parent. The actor was in constant - and controlling - touch with the youngsters and their nannies no matter how busy he was."
The author also alleges that Nicole would go for days without calling her children when she was away filming on location.
He says: “[It] could be days before she would phone to see how Isabella and Connor were coping.”
In November last, Nicole told U.K.'s GMTV: “My kids don't call me mommy, they don't even call me mom. They call me Nicole, which I hate and tell them off for it."
Meanwhile Katie revealed to Parade magazine: "[Tom’s] first two children are incredible, really smart and kind. They call me 'Mom.' So Tom understands the female bond, and he loves it."
To be called a bad mother! That is something that is completely foreign to the coco mommy...However..For some reason this is believeable to us... Nic did come across as cold and self involved although since their split, seems guenuinely changed. As for the whole Scientology mess... Tom's 9 minutes rant on YouTube... claims he is second in command...bizarreness of his current family...etc..etc.. We say... who really cares? Truly the result is only a good laugh along with an "OMG!" and the knowledge of how close the rest of us are to exceptional normalcy! We think that the bottom line is simply this... Tom's movies have not done very well in recent years... how long before he is no longer a movie star and merely a personality... a "used to be"?
From pr-inside.com: JESSICA SIMPSON wants to record a country duet with her American football star boyfriend TONY ROMO.
The Texan singer is currently recording her next LP with a country twist, and she has asked the Dallas Cowboys quarterback to join her behind the mic.
A source tells the National Enquirer, "Jessica has been schooled in publicity tricks by her manager dad, Joe, and she knows that a duet with Tony will attract major attention."
Toodles!
