Look Back at the Worst Celebrity Breakups

Posted Nov 28th 2009 1:58PM By: Kipp Tribble




Given the recent He-said-She-said hodge-podge coming from a certain TV couple with lots and lots of kids, "oh, the drama!" has pretty much now been replaced with "oh, the Gosselins!". Simply par for the course when it comes to celebrity and 15-Minutes-of-Famer breakups . Celebrity splits have held our universe's attention for decades, and this decade may be the champion of them all. Sure, some breakups over the years are oddly cordial (Bruce Willis and Demi Moore), while others are syrupy sweet (Will and Sheree Smith). But most have some serious bite to them that brings out the worst in those involved. Here's a look at some of the worst celeb breakups we've ever seen. And we've seen a lot.


Photos: Imagine These Dysfunctional Hollywood Thanksgivings

Posted Nov 25th 2009 11:59PM By: Jo Piazza



Thanksgiving is a time of turkey and stuffing, football and family drama. And at PopEater we like to maximize that drama. So we got to thinking, what if we could bring together our favorite 2009 Hollywood disasters at one dinner table? Who would sit next to who? Whatever would they talk about? PopEater creates the ultimate Thanksgiving seating chart for our boldfaced fantasy Thanksgiving, with some suggested topics of conversation to keep everyone from commenting on how dry mom's turkey is. See whom we're seating next to whom at our virtual feast:


Jon Gosselin and Chris Brown

We doubt Jon is welcome at his own 'Plus 8' Thanksgiving table. We're sure he has been jointly banned by both Kate and the TLC empire. Jon can counsel Chris on how to survive being one of the most despised dudes in the country. Chris can share with Jon how one should not deal with the women in his life if he expects to improve upon that image.


PopEater Poll Results: Kanye West Named Year's Biggest "Turkey"

Posted Nov 25th 2009 4:00AM By: PopEater Staff



Last week, PopEater teamed up with NiceOne! to see how celebrities sized up this year by letting our readers vote on various Thanksgiving polls -- and apparently they've all had enough of Kanye West, naming him 2009's Biggest Turkey. With 42% of the total votes, he beat out the likes of Spencer Pratt and Jon Gosselin. We're pretty sure our readers still haven't forgiven him for stealing the mic during Taylor Swift's VMAs acceptance speech. See which celebrities topped this year's official PopEater polls. >>

The hour mixed direct-to-camera, separate interviews with both parents. Kate called the series' end "needless. It's useless, it's totally avoidable. ...

Jon Gosselin Brings Roses to Successful Divorce Meeting

Posted Nov 22nd 2009 10:04AM By: PopEater Staff




Jon Gosselin and Kate Gosselin could be about a month away from finalizing their divorce, after a successful day at the arbitration table in Pennsylvania on Saturday.

The two main issues still on the table are distribution of assets and child support.

The day began as many reality dating shows typically end: with roses. Jon showed up at court with a bouquet of long-stemmed red's for Kate -- a peace offering of sorts. However, she turned them down. His lawyer had a pop culture reference in hand when discussing the flowers.

Posted Nov 5th 2009 5:10PM By: Melissa Daniels



Recently, Jon Gosselin raised eyebrows by requesting $12,000 to guest host a Florida radio show. And on Oct. 17, Heidi Montag supposedly refused to attend big sis Holly's birthday bash in L.A. without receiving pay.
