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 The papers were served two weeks after Anderson first filed for divorce from Salomon, a decision she rescinded just a few hours later with a blog post that they were "working things out."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 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.

Spederline reach divorce settlement

Britney Spears and Kevin Federline have reached a divorce settlement, just days after Spears completed her stay at a rehab program in Malibu. "The parties signed a global settlement on all issues of their marriage and the custody of the children," a spokesperson for Federline's attorney said Thursday. The settlement was reached after a five-hour meeting between Spears and Federline and their lawyers. The terms of the agreement have not been revealed, but a source told Us mag that reports of a $1 million settlement and "50/50" custody agreement are "inaccurate." A judge still needs to sign off on the agreement. Spears and Federline spoke for fifteen minutes during a smoke break outside the LA high-rise offices where the meeting took place.

Petra Nemcova and James Blunt have called it quits on their relationship of just over a year. "They split in February. It's very amicable," says a source close to Blunt.

"Lindsay and James were never affectionate, but they did seem flirty, standing right next to each other, and constantly talking," said a fellow clubgoer.
