Lots of break-ups and messy divorces going on in Hollywood these days. Okay, that can be said for any day. Some divorces just won’t die and those directly involved need to come to some decisions and agreements so the rest of us can stop choking on the whole thing. One such case is the divorce between Ryan Phillipe and Reese Witherspoon…you know, the one that happened two years ago.

Paul McCartney’s divorce from Heather Mills continues to haunt us as well since they cannot come to a decision in court. Come on, Heather, I don’t think anybody’s on your side!

Then we have the recent and sad breakup of Pink and Carey Hart. Truly a sad story, let’s just hope it doesn’t make us sick for years to come.

Jennifer Esposito and Bradley Cooper have been separated for some time and are now actually getting divorced. Well, maybe the news of this split will only last as long as their marriage…A total of four months.

And lastly, there’s the barely famous duo Travis Barker, former Blink 182 drummer and Shanna Moakler, who was once a beauty queen. They’ve gotten divorced as well but I don’t think anyone noticed so talk probably won’t be around for long.

Travis Barker and estranged wife, Shanna Moakler have enjoyed months of bitter MySpace battles and public sessions of making out with other people. BUT..do not count them out yet! Perez Hilton is reporting that the two former love birds and reality stars were seen making out at Winston’s on Tuesday night.

Oohh…I love MySpace…

Shanna’s Blog in reaction to Travis’ earlier posting:

First and foremost, I find playing a seperation out in the public arena not only immature, but quite frankly in poor taste, BUT I feel I have to stand up for myself at this point. Airing dirty laundry is not a hard task, it doesn’t take any skill on putting your ex’s personal business or faults out in the public. It doesnt take a lot of skill to LIE to make others look bad. I do not conveniently and for my best interest edit and leave huge parts of the stories out. I have since tried to take the high road and turn the other cheek even when my soon to be ex was verbally bashing me on the Internet, in the media and flaunting his spiteful and vindictive relationships in my face. I am NOT the one running around the world with the town drug obsessed clown who is the epitome of everything I claim I am NOT! I have been forced to defend myself, my character and my morals and values all the while still not putting my ex on blast. Travis has made our marriage and all that we stood for a joke at this point with his actions and creative story telling and I will find it very hard to ever forgive him. I have no problems going to Vegas and celebrating a day that wasn’t the end of my life, but the beginning, beside being mentally and verbally abused in my marriage, I sat home alone ignored and disrespected and I still wasn’t the one who left because I took my vows seriously and they actually meant something to me! This is not a new concept, infact this has nothing to do with me having a party in Vegas at all and my ex knows that. I will not after this day spend another ounce of energy defending myself to a camp of people whose motives are to LIE and knock others down when they find happiness. At the end of the day, I have had many accomplishments BEFORE my marriage and I’ll have many more after, I moved to california to become an actress when I was 19! I’ve worked hard, I feel blessed to have the opportunities that I have and I don’t feel an ounce of guilt for taking them. I’m sorry that my ex feels I am beneath him as a person, as a woman and that I am not worthy of him and his band of flunkys, I guess i will have to live with that.

Travis Barker is not too happy about the Divorce Party that his soon-to-be ex-wife, Shanna Moakler is throwing tomorrow night in Vegas. In fact Barker said, it ‘made him want to puke’. Which is ironic considering we all want to puke at the thought of him and Paris Hilton making out..but whatevs!Here’s his MySpace Blog:

SOMEBODY SENT A MESSAGE AND A FLYER WAS ATTATCHED (I POSTED IT BELOW). SHANNA IS HAVING A DIVORCE PARTY FOR HERSELF IN CELEBRATION OF OUR FAILED MARRIAGE APPARENTLY….. THIS IS THE SAME WIFE THAT EMAILED ME TO TELL ME SHE WOULD BE SLEEPING WITH HER NEW BOYFRIEND IN MY BED THE DAY OF OUR ANNIVERSARY 2 DAYS AGO SO THIS DOESN’T COME AS A SHOCK. AND THE SAME PERSON WHO IS MAKING “I LOVE SHANNA” SHIRTS FOR PEOPLE TO BUY, IN SUPPORT OF ALL THIS AND PLAYING THE VICTIM, IT SADDENS ME PEOPLE AND EVEN BRINGS ON THE URGE TO PUKE, HOPE IT DOES YOU AS WELL. IM GONNA SAY A LONG PRAYER FOR HER, SHE NEEDS IT. THERE ISN’T A PART OF SHANNA AND I AND THE FACT OUR MARRIAGE FAILED THAT I COULD BE CELEBRATING OR HAPPY ABOUT EVEN AFTER ALL OF THIS TIME IT WAS OUR FAMILY…IT WAS ALL WE HAD……I MEAN A PARTY??? WHAT DOESN’T KILL ME MAKES ME STRONGER:) GOODNIGHT AND MAY THE FORCE BE WITH U….STAR WARS IS ON AND THIS IS NOW IN THE PAST. HOPE SHANNA’S PARTY IS EVERYTHING SHE COULD HOPE 4.

Team Travis or Team Shanna? Whose team are you on?

Ahh the wonders of the Playboy Mansion..more known for bringing together C-List actors (yes..Scott Baio..I’m talking about you) and drunk wannabe actresses than feuding ex-lovers..but that is exactly what happened over the weekend.

Shanna Moakler and Travis Barker both attended the Playboy Mansion Halloween Party on Saturday. (Yes..Paris was there too…more about that later). Although the two exes didn’t speak a word to each other at the party..the next morning posed a different scenario. People Magazine reports that Travis stopped by Shanna’s house on Sunday morning to pick up some supplies for the kids (they were on their way to Disneyland). Moakler admits that she ’sensed’ the visit was meant to re-establish a friendship. Barker revealed, “I didn’t go there and say, ‘I’m madly in love with you, Shanna,’ ” he tells PEOPLE exclusively. “If anything, there was an attempt to reconnect. I told her I was ready to be her friend.”

And surely Shanna was willing to move forward in a friendly manner UNTIL..pictures of Travis & Paris Hilton tongue-ing each other at the Playboy Mansion party surfaced. When asked about the kiss, Barker replied, “”Paris and I have tongue kissed before. It’s not unusual for me to say hello to Paris and kiss her, but it’s not like we are a couple or anything. When we see each other, we say hello. That’s it. … I was like any other single young man, just enjoying myself.”

He adds, “Paris wasn’t the only girl I kissed that night.”

Travis Barker says that his wife’s unbridled ambition led to the breakup of their marriage.

The drummer of the band Blink 182 says that Shanna Moakler — the former Miss USA who appeared with him in an MTV reality show — is to blame, not the show.

“[MTV] doesn’t break up relationships,” Barker told Spin magazine. “What breaks up a relationship is when people are concerned with being some crazy celebrity. And my wife was.”

Meanwhile, Barker’s bandmate, Mark Hoppus, blames another member of Blink 182 for the demise of the popular band. Hoppus told the mag that Tom DeLonge didn’t want to travel — and insisted on recording all the music in his hometown of San Diego.

When the mag asked Hoppus if he had a message for DeLonge, he replied: “Your selfish nature is destroying everything that the three of us, our crew, and everyone else worked so hard to do. Name anyone else in the world who gets to travel, gets paid ridiculous amounts of money, brings their family anywhere, and then has two months off just to chill. And that’s not enough for you?”

Paris Hilton has dumped Shanna Moakler ex Travis Barker after her nasty catfight with the model last week according to a report set to be published.  Shanna and Paris made screaming headlines last weekend for their scandalous scuffle outside a Los Angeles nightclub.

Paris Hilton Dumps Travis Barker After Catfight

According to Star Magazine, Hilton and the former Blink 182 drummer spent Friday night at various Las Vegas hotspots declaring their physical attraction for each other with ongoing public displays of affection throughout the evening and early hours of Saturday morning.

Star reports that Paris and Travis, like several other Young Hollywood stars, were in Las Vegas to celebrate Nicky Hilton’s 23rd birthday and to attend parties for the grand opening of Social House restaurant and the two-year anniversary of Tangerine Lounge & Nightclub.

And Nicky Hilton is coming to her big sister’s defense, and, not surprisingly, dissing Shanna.

“You know, I think that she should spend more time with her children and doing more important things in life than getting in fights at nightclubs,” Nicky said in NYC on Oct. 10, at the launch party for Stern Star diamonds. “That’s just very scary, being in a nightclub and having someone attack you. Paris is definitely concerned, but I’m taking measures regarding that.”

She didn’t elaborate but it may not be necessary as In Touch Weekly claims that Paris has dumped the little drummer boy.

Hilton called it quits with Travis the following weekend, explains a “pal,” who told In Touch: “Paris realized this was not what she needed in her life right now.”

No kidding, who does?

Meet the Barkers stars Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler are divorcing, PEOPLE has learned exclusively.

“I can confirm that Travis filed this morning,” Barker’s rep, Dvora Vener, told PEOPLE.

Through her publicist, Moakler told PEOPLE, “My only concern right now is for the welfare and best interests of my children.”

Barker, 30, plays drums for the band the Transplants as well as for blink-182, which is on indefinite hiatus. Moakler, 31, is a former Miss USA who has appeared in films including Big Momma’s House 2 and Pauly Shore is Dead.

They were married in a Gothic, Nightmare Before Christmas-inspired ceremony on Halloween eve in 2004 and have two children: son Landon, 2, and daughter Alabama, 7 months. Moakler also has a daughter, Atiana, 7, with her ex-fiancé, boxer Oscar de la Hoya.

The couple’s wedding and life as a family were captured by MTV cameras for the reality show Meet the Barkers, which premiered in April 2005.

In early July, they put their 12,000-sq.-ft. Tuscan villa in Bel Air, Calif., where much of the series was filmed, on the market for $8.5 million.
