Celebrity Feuds
Celebrity Family Feuds

Everybody fights with their families - even celebrities. And while forgetting to call home may upset your mom, it won't land you on the cover of magazines next to Nicole Richie's latest missed meal.

Unfortunately, the big stars don't have that same luxury.

TMZ tracked down some of Hollywood's biggest family feuds that could give "Kramer vs. Kramer" a run for its money.

Angelina Jolie vs. Jon Voight

Angelina JolieIn 2001, Angelina Jolie co-starred with her dad, Jon Voight, in the hit film "Lara Croft: Tomb Raider." By 2002 they were no longer on speaking terms.

Voight went on national television and blamed the split on what he says were Jolie's "serious emotional problems." Jolie countered "I have determined that it is not healthy for me to be around my father, especially now that I am responsible for my own child (Maddox)."

She eventually legally dropped the 'Voight' from her last name.

Earlier this week Voight admitted that he still wants to reconcile with his daughter and that he has yet to see his new granddaughter Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt.

It seems Jolie's main man Brad Pitt may need to get involved in order to settle this Hollywood Fight Club.



Tori Spelling vs. Candy Spelling


Tori Spellin Ever since Aaron Spelling's death in June, Tori Spelling and her mother Candy have been involved in a catty and public exchange of words.

Tori first heard the news of her father's death via a friend's email and told Us Weekly "I can't believe my mom didn't call me!" Tori revealed she had only seen her father once since last September allegedly because she was unhappy that Candy was spending time with Mark Abramson, a longtime family friend, while Aaron's health deteriorated.

In response to Tori's interview in Us Weekly, Candy and Tori's brother Randy issued a statement saying "We are deeply saddened that, during our time of loss and grief, we are forced to respond to the media frenzy caused by the mean-spirited and surprising comments made by Tori to the press, just two days after the passing of Aaron."

Tori has also denied rumors that her estrangement from her parents had anything to do with her divorce from Charlie Shanian and subsequent marriage to actor Dean McDermott or her VH1 family-mocking series "so noTORIous."

Stay tuned for further developments in the 9021-Uh Oh.

Jennifer Aniston vs. Nancy Aniston

Jennifer Aniston severed her relation with her mother, Nancy, after she gossiped about her on a tabloid TV show and wrote the revealing book "From Mother and Daughter to Friends: A Memoir."

The rift ran so deep that Jennifer didn't even invite Nancy to her 2000 wedding to Brad Pitt. In 2004, Jennifer said "I never thought my mom would not know my husband."

Nancy may not have gotten to know Brad but he was partly responsible for bringing mom and daughter back together. Jennifer said that in the aftermath of her breakup from Pitt she and her mother mended their strained relationship. In 2005 Jennifer told "Good Morning America" "It was the time, and it was going to happen when it was supposed to happen. So this is good."

Now that Brad is out of the picture, it's good to see Jen and her mom are back to being 'Friends.'

Julia Roberts vs. Eric Roberts

Julia RobertsThe "Pretty Woman" and her brother Eric Roberts became estranged when Julia took Eric's ex-girlfriend's, Kelly Cunningham's, side in the couple's bitter custody battle over daughter Emma in 1993.

Ironically, as one child tore the siblings apart, another two helped reunite them.

In 2004, Eric visited Julia in the hospital after giving birth to her twins Phinnaeus and Hazel. Eric told PEOPLE "We all dropped a couple of tears" and everything is back on track.

Lindsay Lohan vs. Michael Lohan

Lindsay Lohan Michael Lohan has had more run-ins with the law than his daughter Lindsay's had boyfriends. He's been arrested for everything from attacking a sanitation worker and assaulting his brother-in-law to drunk driving. These incidents were especially troubling as they occurred as Lindsay's career continued on it's meteoric rise to teen queen stardom. Things were further strained by Michael's nasty divorce to Lindsay's mom Dina. Michael even wanted Lindsay's fortunes considered a marital asset in the divorce but the request was denied.

Lindsay documented her relationship with her estranged dad in the song "Confessions of a Broken Heart (Father to Daughter)." In the song Lindsay sings "If you loved us, why did you do all these things." To make it even more personal, Lindsay directed the video and cast her 11-year-old sister Ali as a younger version of herself.

Michael responded to the video with a song of his own which said "I do admit, I did at times fall. But these things you know were due to "THEM."

With Michael serving time in a NY state prison and Lindsay shuttling cross-country from hotspot to hotspot, it looks like they are both spending their time apart behind bars.

46. I love Angelina. But in the case of her father, Jon, I think she's being a little hypocritical. She said in the very beginning, when she was denying her relationship with Brad, that she could never be like her father, who cheated on her mother. Now I'm sure their stained relationship is more complicated then that. What she should realize, that people aren't perfect. Not her father, nor her. I think she needs to be a little more introspective. By doing so, she may find out a lot about herself and her Dad.

55. To #49 by me:
I'm not 100% postitive but I'm pretty sure Jon Voight and Angelinga reconciled while making Tomb Raider in Cambodia...during which was meeting and making arrangements to adopt Maddox. Jon Voight, back in the US, said during an interview that she had adopted him, but Angelina hadn't made it public yet. He also said "no...I didn't see him yet, but I'm looking forward to meeting my grandson.."
I really don't think Jon was trying to steal Angelina's thunder, but apparently that's how she took it and the two have been on the outs since. I think he was making attempts to contact her but she cut him out of her life. I think.....

56. ANGELINA IS GORGEOUS!! JENIIFER IS UGLY

57. At first you just love your parents, you dont think they could do any wrong, not in a way that is worth complete excommunication. But believe me, after many many years of low self esteem and self destructive behaviour , you get it - the horrific truth that a parent would not hesitate to hurt you. And that they will continue to hurt and bring mental and other harm to you . And by this time, if you are lucky, you might have someone or professional help who will advice you to let them go. Its the best way to stop them from abusing thier "I'm your mom -dad power'. And ignoring them destroys that power. It lets them know that you have somehow healed and learn to love and respect yourself. So more power to Angelina and to Jen and any other who have learn to face the reality- celebrities or regular people. Becuase I know from experience.

58. I think what everyone should remember is that no one knows the whole story but the people involved and that we shouldn't judge them on what little we do know when half of it might not even be true. As for Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston; if their relationship with one of thier parents was causing them nothing but emotional pain then maybe for their own sake it was the right choice to cut off all ties.

59. ok 18 i try break it down jolies "dad is no father and since you can't pick your parents why bother having people who have caused you pain to be allowedto cause pain to your family ( ie when we grow up or kids and husband ,wife whatever you chose are your family.
