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.

91. I've seen plenty of racist comments on TMZ but what Liz (#2) said wasn't racist at all! In fact, its the damn truth! Kimora is a hot woman but I would never date her! She just seems like she'd be a pure diva! Plus, she seemed to have Russell whipped when they were married! While I do respect women, I do think that respect should be balanced between husband and wife.

Back to her, she is trash. She's worse than Tyra!

92. #52, that's about the only thing good I can say about Kimora. I think she married Russell for money BUT at least she learned how to make her own money!

93. 61. NOw that Obama has exposed what Black People really think of White People and the USA, who cares anymore what happens with famous Black people? They freaking hate us and our Country and now I hate them. No more open minded playing by the rules bs for this nonsense...its time the Black Race take Personal Responsibility for its own Destiny instead of blaming the White Man, whom they hate, and their Government, whom they also hate.

This goof has enough money to help a whole neignborhood, instead he puts in gold faucets in his mansion.

94. He should be glad to get rid of that thing. She thinks she is all of that but she is a wannabe. He will be much happier without her,

95. I think KLS is FABulous. If she and her husband are on good terms why are any of us trying to judge? As for the security detail and the nanny, I think that's just to ensure the safety of the little girls, no more, no less. It's like that when both parents are in the business and some crazy person tries to harm them for kicks. It's not like any of them are homebodies.

96. To #30, I am sorry for your story and while I see your point, I somehow don't think Kimora fits your scenerio. If anything, he's probably the one that was abused (at least verbally).

97. Who are you all to judge their lives??? Sounds like a lot of losers on here that have nothing to do but bad-mouth others. It is sad they are divorcing. I don't know anything about these 2 so I won't JUDGE and unless you are personally acquainted or perhaps - GOD - then maybe you shouldn't either! BTW - he married her for looks as much as she may have married him for money. Look at society - past and present - it's survival of the fittest baby!

98. Upgrade indeed!! Whoa!! That Kimora looks...well. I won't type what I'm thinking, but she looks "common," to say the least, talks like she has no education (does she?), and I think it's hilarious that her current boyfriend talked about their relationship in...Bazaar was it...as if she is just a date! I love it. She is so full of herself...and the new woman in her ex-husband's life is GORGEOUS! Eat your heart out, Imelda Marcos!

105. Give me a break, the fact the she is asking for supervised visitation is stupid. i don't know russell personally, but i know damn well he would never do anything to put his children in any type of danger. and after all he has done for her, she should have left the brotha with a lil' more dignity than that. I also hope that Djimon is the strong brotha that he portrays in his excellent films. because she is indeed a piece of work . an arrogant person. (out of respect for russell and Djimon) i won't call her the names that she trully represent. (i support you russell and i don't think that you need supervised visitation. shes trying to drag your name through the mud. you have done too much and have given too much to your artist and to the world. she would not have a career if it were not for you.
