Pete Wentz posted this Twitpic of wife Ashlee Simpson and son Bronx yesterday, along with the note: "Ashlee Simpson-Wentz (@ashsimpsonwentz) new blonde pixie haircut is cute. Ill try and sneak a pic to post."

After having her long locks for a long time, the young mom decided to change it up not only by going short but by going blonde! Pete posted: "Cut hair mama!"

Do you love Ash's new look? We do!

Jordan Bratman visited his attorney yesterday afternoon just hours after it was announced he and wife Christina Aguilera have separated. Could a divorce announcement be in the near future?

WTF?! Weird way to get our attention, but ...

David and Courtney just recently shot this public service announcement for the OPCC (Ocean Park Community Center) in Santa Monica, CA for their Sojourn house for battered women. At least a good cause brought them together during tough times!

Nick Jonas was looking SO BUFF as he headed into Jim Henson Studios yesterday to work on his solo album.

Nick starred in a production of Les Miserables in London this summer and is said to be off the market ... Rumor has it he's dating his Les Miz co-star.

Lucky lady!

Girl needs her caffeine! And even though Ashley Tisdale isn't wearing as cute of a dress as the day before, we still think she looks totes adorable. Check out the HSM sweetheart visiting Coffee Bean in Studio City Tuesday afternoon and leaving with three de-lish looking drinks. That Ash - such a little Hellcat!

Now that Courteney Cox and David Arquette, Christina Aguilera and Jordan Bratman have decided to call it quits, we're wondering what these super-rich females might have to give up to their less-rich men in divorce court. California is famous for it's 50/50 split of all property acquired during the marriage but both Courteney and Christina already had lots of cash going into their respective relationships ... and what about future earnings?

Net assets

Courtney and David:
Cox's net worth of $75 million, according to CelebrityNetWorth.com. Courteney earned $5 mil for Scream 2 and $7 mil for Scream 3, but she raked in a ton more from her work on Friends, where Court received a well-known $1 million per episode, not to mention syndication earnings.

David Arquette, on the other hand, has not been as successful in film and television. His biggest paycheck? -- $5 million for Eight Legged Freaks. Of course, it all comes down to whether or not the couple had a prenuptial agreement and what that agreement specifically states.

J. Michael Kelly, a Santa Monica attorney who has been handling high profile divorce cases for over 40 years, chatted exclusively with X17online about these recent celebrity splits: "The two things that matter as far as a division of assets who gets custody of the kids and the prenup."

It's uncertain whether either couple has a prenup, though it's likely both do. When so much money is involved, most attorneys would council their clients to have one in place before tying the knot. But while Kelly admits that prenups can be "common," sometimes Hollywood types don't want them in the beginning because "love trumps all."

And if the wife is wealthier in a Hollywood marriage, will husbands have to fight tooth and nail to get any money if the couple had a prenup? “Yes, most definitely,” says Kelly. Because the point of the prenup is to "prevent any fighting, because that’s it. It's already been decided!”

Some of David and Courteney's mutual earnings include the profit from the 2007 sale of their Malibu beach front home for $33.5 million which they purchased in 2001 for an estimated $10 million.

Additionally, the couple runs Coquette Productions, which produced Dirt and now Cougar Town -- two shows starring Courteney herself. (Just to note, in the case of Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston, the couple founded Plan B Entertainment together with Brad Grey. And after splitting, Pitt became the sole owner of the company in 2006.)

Christina and Jordan:
Xtina's net worth, according to CelebrityNetWorth, is $60 million, mostly due to the success of her first (self-titled) album which sold over 17 million copies worldwide.

Jordan Bratman, a music marketer, has a net worth of approximately $15 million.

Additionally, Christina and Jordan received a reported $1.5 million from People mag for the rights to their first baby pictures of son Max.

Think these two have a prenup? Attorney Michael Kelly assumes so! Christina Aguilera is “a very sharp businesswoman," he says, comparing her to Madonna. "I imagine she has a very good prenup.” Guess that means Jordan better watch his back if things get ugly with his ex in the future, especially when it comes to their son Max.

Kelly also tells us child custody is of the upmost importance in dividing assets in a divorce: "A prenup allows you to circumvent all laws in California except custody, and the amount of time shared for custody is important when it comes to the amount of child support payments."


Child custody

Both couples say in their respective statements released by publicists, that they're putting their children first. Christina and Jordan: "Our commitment to our son Max remains as strong as ever." Courteney and David: "We remain best friends and responsible parents to our daughter ..."

But what happens down the line when one or both parents decide not to be so civil? Attorney Kelly notes: "When a divorce begins, everyone says they're going to take care of the kid." But if a battle heats up over who's going to take care of Coco or Max, would a judge then favor the parent with the higher earning parent for sole custody? Again, it all depends on the prenup, which can "eliminate spousal support, but not child support." And if there is no prenup ... may the best parent win!

Poor Paris! Back in August, a man was arrested after showing up to her residence with two knives, and now this...

At around 12:15 this afternoon, Paris Hilton's private security guards arrested a man who showed up unannounced at the socialite's gated Mulholland Estates home.

The unidentified intruder rode his bike past a security checkpoint into the gated community and began pounding on Paris' door. He then resisted guards' efforts to calm him down.

Police were called and the man was taken to the Van Nuys station for questioning and booked on suspicion of battery on a security guard.

So scary! The cops are now wondering if this and the previous incident are connected. Paris herself hasn't Tweeted anything about the event just yet. Stay tuned for more details as they come in.

Okay, Life as We Know It only came in at number two at the box office (behind The Social Network) with $14.5 million this weekend, but still! A success nonetheless.

And just yesterday, its leading lady Katherine Heigl - along with her scruffy-hot hubby Josh Kelley - made a quick stop at a liquor store in Los Feliz to celebrate.

Sidebar, is it just me or does Josh get more attractive by the minute?
