Celebrity Divorce

Mena Suvari's Vatican wedding is ending in divorce ... TMZ has learned.

The 32-year-old "American Beauty" actress has filed court papers to end her marriage to 25-year-old concert promoter Simone Sestito.

The two were married back in 2010 at a private church in Vatican City.

According to the divorce papers, filed today in L.A. County Superior Court by Mena's attorney Mark Gross, Mena is blaming the split on "irreconcilable differences."

Mena wants the judge to PREVENT Simone from getting spousal support. She also wants the judge to change her name back from Mena Suvari-Sestito to good, ol' Mena Suvari.

In the docs, Mena lists the date of separation as Nov. 1, 2011. The two have no children together.

It's Mena's 2nd divorce -- she ended her 5-year marriage to cinematographer Robert Brinkmann in 2005.

Someone may FINALLY be getting ready to leave Casa de Prime Time -- because a giant moving pod is currently sitting in the middle of Deion Sanders' driveway.

TMZ broke the story ... Deion and Pilar are BOTH living in the massive Texas estate, despite the fact Deion filed for divorce last month, after 12 years of marriage.

Just a few weeks ago, Deion went on the radio and claimed the living situation was "cool" -- insisting he and Pilar engage in friendly banter every morning.

But sources close to the couple tell us ... things actually aren't that cordial behind the scenes ... and it seems the awkward living situation is finally coming to an end.

Rocking some interesting blue hair, Katy Perry was spotted out in public on Thursday for the first time since splitting with estranged husband Russell Brand two weeks ago.

The 27-year-old "California Gurl" was all smiles as she posed with a fan while on the set of an Adidas commercial she is filming in Santa Barbara.

As TMZ previously reported, Katy will continue living in the former couple's $6.5 million Hollywood Hills home and Russell will move out.

While Russell filed for divorce after only 14 months of marriage, he and Katy are said to still be on reasonably good terms.

Pilar Sanders wants everyone to know she's NOT an adulterous floozie who cheated on Deion ... and now she wants to take a lie detector test to prove it.

Pilar is still fuming about the allegations Deion's daughter Deiondra made about her during an epic Twitter rant last month ... in which she claimed Pilar was a "gold digging h*e" who cheated on the NFL legend.

Now, Pilar's attorney, Larry Friedman, tells TMZ ... "It is extremely unfortunate that, in addition to the mental distress caused by the unexpected and untimely filing of the divorce by Deion Sanders, he has not stopped his daughter Deiondra from falsely accusing my client, Pilar Sanders, of infidelity in order to cause her more pain and suffering and further damage her character and reputation."

Friedman adds, "This matter doesn't require praying for Pilar as Deion has stated; it calls for telling the 'truth' -- as well as a retraction of the false accusations made about Pilar and a public apology."

"Perhaps it's time for the parties to submit to and release the results of a polygraph examination to determine whether infidelity was committed during the marriage and to put an end to the speculation once and for all."

Katy Perry's parents, Keith and Mary Hudson, delivered a sermon this morning to the folks at the New Hope International in Fort Valley, GA -- and this time there was no mention of Katy's divorce.

Earlier this week, Keith and Mary appeared at a church in Ohio and discussed Katy's split from Russell Brand during their sermon.

Katy Perry lashed out at her parents last night for playing armchair quarterbacks in her divorce with Russell Brand.

Keith and Mary Hudson, who are ministers, said earlier this week ... the blessing in Katy's divorce is that it created interest in their ministry.

Katy tweeted last night ... she was " grateful for all the love and support" she's gotten from her fans. But she followed that up by saying that no one speaks for her ... including her family.

Cal Worthington -- the greatest car salesman of all time -- believes his 42-year-old wife Anna is gunning for his fortune ... so he BANISHED her from his mansion and REPO'D her Bentley.

The 91-year-old LEGEND has filed new docs in his divorce ... claiming the woman he married in April turned out to be a lemon ... but he signed a pre-nup so she wouldn't get jack squat.

Cal claims he's only obligated to fork over $4k per month ... for 6 months after the divorce ... and THAT'S IT. Then she's on her own.

Anna thinks she deserves more ... MUCH MORE ... including Cal's $3.25 MILLION Beverly Hills mansion.

Long story short ... Anna claims Cal bought the house FOR HER as a wedding gift ... and therefor she's entitled to at least half.

Cal is calling BS -- and wants a judge to block Anna from being allowed on the Bev Hills property.

And to show he means business ... Cal sent a tow truck to secretly re-possess the Bentley Anna had been driving ... while it was parked outside of her mother's home.

In the docs, Cal claims Anna was driving a 2004 Chrysler Sebring before the marriage ... so that's what she should be driving now.

Anna hired K-Fed's former lawyer -- Mark Vincent Kaplan -- and wants to "insure [Cal] does not leave me on the street without any means to live."

God works in mysterious ways -- and in the eyes of Katy Perry's parents, her recent divorce from Russell Brand is one of the ways, because God used to the divorce to fill the rafters of their church.

Pastors Keith and Mary Hudson preached to the congregation at Church On The Rise in Westlake, OH on Wednesday, says The Sun, in an appearance that was advertised by the church.

Perry's mom, Mary, speaking for the first time about the split, told parishioners, "I'm sure Katy is trending on the internet just to get you to church tonight. I mean all over the world, who knows how God is bringing them in? The most important thing is you are here and God wants to put the fire in you in 2012."

At one point, Perry's dad said, "What has taken place in my daughter's life has opened many opportunities to go in and be with guarded and gated people. God has given us a platform to go in and meet people -- and they like us because we are cool. We are not threatening."

According to the paper, a video was shown beforehand that featured the Hudsons at award shows with Katy. The Hudsons are scheduled to appear tomorrow at a church in Georgia and the video below is on the church's site promoting the appearance.

Katy Perry and Russell Brand have agreed ... Katy will stay in the couple's $6.5 million Hollywood Hills mansion and Russell will move out ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to the couple tell us ... the moving process is already under way and most of Russell's stuff is already out of the home.

We're told ... the two are on reasonably good terms with each other, considering they just broke up ... and the decision over the house went pretty smoothly.

Hayden Panettiere's mother has filed for divorce ... 3 years after her husband pled no contest to battering her.

Lesley Panettiere cited irreconcilable differences in her divorce petition, filed in L.A. County Superior Court.

The couple made headlines in August, 2008, after Alan was charged for striking Lesley in the face. He pled no contest to misdemeanor battery and was placed on 24 months probation.

Here's what's interesting ... Lesley lists the date of separation as July 15, 2008, which is a month prior to the incident that led to his battery conviction.

Lesley is asking for spousal support.

The moving pods were out at Katy Perry and Russell Brand's home in the Hollywood Hills Wednesday ... which begs the question ... who gets to stay in the house??

Katy and Russell purchased the $6.5 million, 3 acre, Sunset Strip-area estate back in June ... but just last week, the British funnyman filed for divorce ... leaving the future of the home in limbo.

Not a great time to sell real estate in L.A. ... and if they decide they want to unload the place quick, it might mean a great deal for a potential buyer.

Zooey Deschanel is worth millions, spends relatively modestly, and has a zero balance on her credit cards ... this according to documents her lawyer just filed in her divorce case.

TMZ broke the story ... Zooey just filed for divorce from her hubby of 2 years -- Ben Gibbard, the lead singer of Death Cab for Cutie.

For some reason, her lawyer attached Zooey's income and expense declaration.

Here's the lowdown:

-- Zooey -- who stars in "New Girl" -- makes an average of $95,000 a month
-- Her expenses average $22,550 a month
-- She has 3 credit cards ... AmEx, Visa and Mastercard, all of which have a 0 balance.
-- She has $1,578,000 in the bank
-- Zooey has an additional $1,645,000 in stocks, bonds, etc.
-- Zooey has real and personal property valued at $693,300

As for what she spends a month, Zooey says she drops $1,000 on groceries and household supplies, $500 eating out (really?), $800 on utilities, $300 for her various phones and email accounts, $600 in laundry and cleaning, $2,000 for clothes.

Marc Anthony wants Jennifer Lopez to know ... she ain't the only one with a hot, young plaything -- and he's got the photos to prove it.

Anthony just went to his Facebook page and posted a photo of himself gettin' all kissy kissy with a 24-year-old Venezuelan model named Shannon de Lima.

It's the first chick Marc has been romantically linked with since he split with J.Lo back in July.

Of course, 42-year-old Lopez rebounded with 24-year-old backup dancer Casper Smart.

Question is ...

Zooey Deschanel has decided to end her marriage ... two months after separating from her rock star husband Ben Gibbard ... TMZ has learned.

The "New Girl" star filed the divorce docs in L.A. County Superior Court on December 27 -- blaming the split on "irreconcilable differences."

She also lists the official date of separation as October 31 ... Halloween.

Deschanel and Gibbard -- lead singer for the band Death Cab for Cutie -- were married in 2009. They have no kids.

Frank Zappa's daughter Moon Unit Zappa -- her real name -- has filed for divorce from her husband, Matchbox Twenty guitarist Paul Doucette ... TMZ has learned.

Moon Unit filed the papers in L.A. County Superior Court last week -- seeking to end her 9-and-a-half year marriage.

Moon Unit and her husband were married in June 2002, and have one 7-year-old daughter named Mathilda Plum.

Fun facts: Moon Unit also has a laundry list of acting credits, including a recent appearance on "Grey's Anatomy." Frank's other kids are named Dweezil, Ahmet, and Diva.

Darryl Strawberry's ex-wife just suffered a massive setback in court -- after a judge ordered she can't touch $800,000 in Mets money Darryl earned in the 80s ... until the IRS gets its cut.

According to court docs, Darryl has an arrangement with the Mets, in which the ball club pays him $8,891 a month as delayed compensation for his time with the team.

According to the docs, Strawberry had earmarked $800,000 of the money specifically for his ex Charisse Strawberry as part of their divorce settlement agreement. But turns out, Darryl also allegedly owes the IRS $472,086, which creates a big problem ... who gets paid first?

Charisse had sued Darryl and the Mets earlier last year, demanding they fork over the $800,000 -- but the Mets refused, insisting its hands were tied ... because when it comes to debtors, the IRS always gets its money before anyone else.

Charisse and the Mets finally agreed last month to let the IRS take its cut first -- but since the Mets are only doling out $8,891 a month in Darryl's name ... it'll be at least until 2016 before Charisse sees a penny.
