Another breakup for John Mayer

John Mayer and Minka Kelly have quietly called it quits after a brief romance. The musician, 30, and the 27-year-old Friday Night Lights actress split over a month ago, but are "still friends," sources say. Despite their split, the two have remained close: Kelly showed her support for Mayer at his December concert in L.A. and accompanied him to the after-party at Parc where they got cozy in a booth together. The two were also spotted days later having breakfast in L.A. and also drinks at The Sunset Marquis Hotel in West Hollywood. According to a pal of Kelly's, "Minka told a couple friends that she and John had broken up but she really didn't want to tell anyone." The couple became involved earlier this fall. They were spotted dining together several times in Austin, Texas, in early October and again later that month in California. They also met up with Chris Ivery and Ellen Pompeo at a Knicks game in New York in November. The split, however, may not last for long. When Mayer dated Jessica Simpson, the couple broke up and reunited numerous times before finally calling it quits for good. A rep for Mayer had no comment. Kelly's rep couldn't be reached for comment.

Pam goes forward with divorce

Pamela Anderson had divorce papers personally served to Rick Salomon on Dec. 28. The papers were served two weeks after Anderson first filed for divorce from Salomon, a decision she rescinded just a few hours later with a blog post that they were "working things out." Seen alone on New Year's Eve, Anderson recently blogged on her site: "2007 was an interesting year for me. What's the definition of insanity? This is the year I do everything I wanted to do – my way... I'm going to be proud of every single day – and make sure I do not veer from the path." Anderson, 40, stated in her divorce request that she and Salomon were married from Oct. 6 to Dec. 13. The actress has two sons (Brandon, 11, and Dylan, 9) from her previous marriage with rocker Tommy Lee. Salomon, the father of two daughters from a previous marriage, is best known for producing and starring in a 2003 sex tape with Paris Hilton.

Anne Heche's ugly divorce battle

The bitter divorce between Anne Heche and Coley Laffoon continues to worsen, with furniture now at the center of the battle. In papers filed in LA Superior Court, Laffoon alleges that Heche took a number of items from the couple's former home while he was away, including the master bed and yoga-room rugs, and that he "discovered that [Heche] had gone into my closet and ripped the buttons off of 19 of my shirts and removed some of my pants." The former videographer has requested that the court order Heche to return the property and prohibit her from removing anything else. Heche denies the claims, insisting the items she took were hers before they were married. "All of the furniture, furnishings, artwork, etc. that was acquired during marriage and paid for with funds earned during the marriage remains," the actress says in court documents.

Anne Heche's ex says she's "bizarre and delusional"

Things are getting ugly between Anne Heche and her estranged husband Coley Laffoon. In papers filed in LA Superior Court, Laffoon is seeking at least $33,000 a month in child support as well as primary support of the former couple's 5-year-old son Homer. "Clearly, [Heche's] anger toward me has clouded her ability to think rationally about what is in Homer's best interest," Laffoon says in the documents. "[She] has at times exhibited bizarre and delusional behavior for which she refuses to seek professional help... Due to [her] lack of attention to Homer's needs and poor parenting skills, Homer's emotional stability has been detrimentally affected." Laffoon, who gave up his $6,000-a-year career as a videographer to raise Homer, says Heche earns $81,000 per episode for Men in Trees, and that because the show is filmed in Vancouver, she has "little time available from her busy schedule to spend time with Homer." Laffoon says that during a trip to NYC to appear on the Letterman show, Heche called him to say she "did not know where she was and that she needed help. She sounded confused. I was extremely frightened for her safety," and that when she returned home, she "acted as if nothing ever happened" and "never acknowledged the seriousness of her actions." Since their split in February, Heche has been romantically linked to her Men in Trees co-star James Tupper.
