Kimora and Russell Divorcing ... Again?

TMZ has obtained new divorce papers in the blingiest divorce in the biz -- Kimora Lee and Russell Simmons. Baby phat say wha'? Didn't they do that already?

The papers, filed today in Los Angeles County Superior Court by Kimora, cite irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split. She is asking for legal and physical custody of the couple's two daughters Ming Lee and Aoki Lee. In this petition she is not seeking spousal support.

If this feels like deja vu, it is. Russell reportedly filed for divorce in March 2006, but in August of '07 Kimora told OK! Magazine that they were not divorced yet, and "who knows" what will happen. Life in the fab lane!

Kimora asks that "reasonable child visitation" be granted to Russell, but that the girls be "accompanied at all times by the children's nanny and security personnel."

Russell released a statement to TMZ, through his rep, saying "Although I haven't read the papers, I'm excited for closure on this issue. I love her to def and I will always wish her happiness and success."

A call to Kimora's rep was not immediately returned.

76. This is the most awkward couple not to mention, this broad is fugly. Fugly factors aside, this chick is a gold digger. Who the hell with any brains would marry her?

78. Perhaps they are meant to be together. If the first divorce didn't take... maybe there is a reason.

79. I find it so very interesting that almost everyone seems to be on the "Kimora is a b**ch" bandwagon here. First of all, NONE of you know what went on in that marriage. KLS is a savvy businesswoman and I agree with the poster who said that many of the hate comments are racist. And misogynistic. Russell has said MANY times that Kimora is an excellent business woman - and has a better business sense than he does. They are friends and partners in business - they just don't want to be married to each other. I am BFFs with my ex. Like Kimora, I worked hard to get where I am today. My ex-husband and I agreed to split our assets right down the middle. I did not ask for spousal support and we both manage our children's support. I live in NYC and he got our house in Bridgeport, CT.

And Lenn you sound like an ass**le. Completely judgemental and a woman hater. Like Kimora, I look good, enjoy my money, my home and my cars and jewelry. Too bad if the rest of you can't handle a powerful woman. Go Kimora Go!

85. YAY for you Simmons--now you dont have to listen that conceited, annoying biotch anymore. Yay!!!!

86. Lexus: Its one thing to a strong, independent successful woman and its another thing to be a conceited, selfish and a goddy bitch. I hope you are dislike KLS in the latter description because that is what KLS is. I too, although never married nor with children, am a strong, independent and successful woman. However the difference between you and I is that I dont waste my money on cars and jewelry (as you hinted you do) Instead I've created an excellent retirement fund for myself, paid off my parents house as thanks for all they have done for me and also donated over $50,000 to a local womans shelter which helps homeless/abused/troubled woman turn their lives around by getting into housing and a career.

Money isnt everything. KLS thinks it is and that is why she has been hated (rightfully so!) on in this room. In a world where middle class people cant afford their mortgages or healthcare its beyond rude, selfish and demoralizing for celebrities to flaunt their status around by purchasing multi-thousand dollar purses and other luxury items.

87. I want to say you hit the nail on the head when it comes to Kimora
.Also thank you for the donation,at one time I had to go to a woman's
shelter for the safety of my kids and myself...God bless.

88. Val*** that post was to you...

89. Hey Val and Anon - oh, I see - you are BFFs with Russell? You live in the Lee/Simmons household? Ahhhh....just as I thought. You know NOTHING about KLS. You only know what you've seen on her Style show and come to conclusions that you KNOW are accurate. If you choose to interpret confidence as conceit, that is your option. You don't like Kimora; fine. Too bad, b/c Russell still likes her honey and he knows her a hell of a lot better than you do.

Call me a conceited bitch if you will - I honestly don't lose sleep over your opinion of me. Like KLS (well, not quite on her level financially, but I do very well, thanks for asking!) I know what I want, I am not easily intimidated (in fact, I don't think I've ever been intimidated), I am a very good business woman, and I enjoy my life. I travel, I have a small condo in South Beach, I have 2 cars (in Manhattan) and my kids are GREAT. So life is good. Sorry yours apparently isn't and that's what bugs you the most about KLS.

Kimora - go baby go! Congrats on your pregnancy and keep on being your fabulous self. Ignore the racists and misogynists out there honey - they only wish they could be a part of you!
