If you give a crap about pop culture, and we all know I do, when jaw dropping celebrity news happens, you know I have to write about it. Usually, I wouldn’t be gracing you with my virtual presence twice in A SINGLE WEEK (lucky freakin’ you), but desperate times call for desperate blogs.

Every generation has the moment when they will never forget where they were when they heard a piece of news. For my grandparents, it was JFK’s assassination. For my parent’s, it was Princess Di’s death. But for me, my celebrity gossip loving self, there will be one moment when I will never forget where I was. A moment forever branded in my mind. A moment where the world stopped.

That moment?

When Brangelina filed for divorce.

First off, I can’t believe I am writing those words. How is it possible that Hollywood’s most famous and seemingly united unions split after 12 years?! I mean it all just feels like such a tease. You’d think after a cheating scandal, the downfall of Brad and Jen, six multi cultural kids, and a fabulous wedding at a French chateau would be enough for some people, but apparently not Brad and Angie. Let me be clear that I have and will always be #TeamJen, but Mr. and Mrs. Smith have hit me with a low blow.

Now Brad, you’d think that after you dumped the most beautiful woman in the world for the second most beautiful woman in the world and then had six beautiful children with her, you would have at least quit while you’re ahead, right? Now after allegations Pitt has been fooling around with his Allied costar Marion Cotillard, it seems that is not the case. But hey, a king ain’t satisfied til he rules everything, right? (*cue phone blowing up with my Dad’s pride of my use of Springsteen references*) I guess once a cheater, always a cheater, and I’m sure Jen is going to enjoy all this “I told you so”. So Brad, third times a charm, and while you’re at it, I think I’ll just sit back and enjoy.

So now, with evidence that Angie has filed first and cited SOLE CUSTODY, it seems that the claws are coming out a nasty custody battle is sadly in the works. For the sake of gossip, I usually would say bring it on, but for the sake of their six beautiful children, I only hope it stays as civil as possible.

So, the world’s most prominent power couple of the 2000’s has left the building, and coincidentally my Ben and Jerry’s has also left the carton. Say I’m being dramatic all you want, but for celebrity gossip lovers: it really is the end of an era.

But as for you Jen^, you’re really not fooling anyone.
