Brendan Fraser announced Wednesday that he and his wife of nine-years, Afton, are ending their marriage. "They continue to maintain a close and caring friendship," a publicist for the 39-year-old Canadian-born actor said in a statement. The couple wed in 1998 and have three children.
Pamela Anderson filed for divorce from Rick Salomon after two months of marriage last week, but a reconciliation may already be in the works. Anderson, 40, filed for divorce Friday in Los Angeles Superior Court, citing irreconcilable differences. The actress says she and Salomon separated the day before, on Thursday. She is seeking to have Salomon pay spousal support and attorney's fees. But two days later, she was spotted shopping with Salomon, and on Monday she posted this brief note on her website: "P.S. We're working things out." The former Baywatch star married Salomon, 39, at the Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas on Oct. 6 – during an hour-and-a-half break between two magic shows Anderson was performing. Her rep had no comment on the filing, and Anderson doesn't mention it in detail on her site. Her postscript message followed a posting Monday saying she had turned down a lucrative offer to appear in another Las Vegas show so she could spend more time with her children in Malibu. "I've never made decisions based on money – and I'd hate to start now," she writes. "I'm going to work on my dream now – and stay Home--!!!" The marriage was the third for both. Anderson was previously married to Tommy Lee and Kid Rock. Salomon's ex-wives are Elizabeth Daily and Shannen Doherty. What about Anderson's poor kids? She might want to start factoring their well-being into her decisions.
Selma Blair is back on the market. "I'm single." So when did she split with boyfriend Matthew Felker? "Oh, it was a while ago," the star explained at the L.A. opening of the new Kiki De Montparnasse lingerie store. "While I was in Budapest [filming Hellboy 2]." Blair, 35, and the model-actor (best known as Britney Spears's kissing partner in the "Toxic" video) met through mutual friends. They and had been dating steadily since her divorce from Ahmet Zappa last November. "I've just been reconnecting with my friends," Blair says of life post-boyfriend. Before catching up with Ashley Olsen (who was also on hand for the launch), Blair was game to pose with some of the store's more provocative wares – namely leather whips and gold-plated handcuffs. Surrounded by lace slips and garter belts, the actress said her newly single status doesn't lessen her love of lingerie. "I have a lot of it, but mostly for myself," she said. "It just makes you feel beautiful." And that, incidentally, is also what she's looking for in a man. "I want someone who makes me feel good," she said, adding with a sly smile, "if you know what I mean."
Leonardo Dicaprio is reportedly looking for a new model after splitting from his post-Gisele Bundchen babe, Bar Rafaeli. On Friday night at Sweet Paradise in NYC, Dicaprio was with Josh Hartnett checking out the arm candy at the afterparty for the new skateboarding film Nothing But the Truth. And, in an odd twist, Rafaeli's new squeeze is surfer Kelly Slater, who dated Bundchen after she and the Titanic star broke up. Slater got into some trouble over the weekend in Israel when he and Rafaeli exited a hotel in a Tel Aviv suburb before dawn to find photographers waiting for them. He was arrested after fighting with local paparazzi. A police spokesperson told the AP that in an effort to prevent the photogs from taking pictures, Slater pushed them. A brawl broke out, and Slater was taken in for questioning and later released.
