Looks like Katy Perry isn’t too upset about this whole divorce business!

The singer typically adds a smiley face to her signature, and oddly enough, she even included it on her divorce papers.

Perry, 27, and Brand, 36, reached a final divorce settlement this week, covering distribution of their property and all other issues.

In a very strange way of announcing their divorce, rocker Jack White and model Karen Elson are throwing a divorce party!

Here is their invite, sent by the iconic supermodel and her musician husband in which they kindly request the presence of invitees to celebrate “their 6th anniversary and their upcoming divorce.”

In a press release, the couple stated:

“We remain dear and trusted friends and co-parents to our wonderful children Scarlett and Henry Lee. We feel so fortunate for the time we have shared and the time we will continue to spend both separately and together watching our children grow. In honor of that time shared, we are throwing a divorce party. An evening together in Nashville to re-affirm our friendship and celebrate the past and future with close friends and family.”

Jack was previously married to Meg White; together, they formed the band The White Stripes. Elson once told the Telegraph that she and Meg were good friends — Meg was even Elson’s maid of honor at her nuptials. Of Meg, Elson said, “She’s brilliant, I love her. Her husband plays in my band. I see Meg all the time. I probably see Meg more than I see Jack at the moment. It’s family.”

Strange…but ok?

After 11 years of marriage, Courteney Cox and David Arquette announced last fall that they were taking a trial separation—but the couple is not giving up hope. Life & Style has learned that Courteney met up with David for counseling at a therapist’s office in LA on May 5. “They’re in therapy,” an insider close to Courteney confirms to Life & Style. “She and David still do a lot together, so it’s not surprising that they would go to therapy together. They’re co-parenting Coco, no matter what the status of their relationship is.”

“They were very civil with each other,” an eyewitness says after spotting the two entering the building on May 5.

Courtney has made no secret about being a huge advocate of couples counseling. “I get shocked by people getting divorced all the time; that’s why I choose to work on it,” Courteney has said about marriage. “Therapy helps us.”

Yesterday it was reported that Ashlee Simpson had filed for divorce. While sources told PEOPLE “It’s very amicable. They’re on very friendly terms and speaking – it’s fine,” looks like this may not actually be the case.

TMZ is reporting that Pete Wentz does not want to end his marriage, and Ashlee is the one who wants to leave. Wentz claims he’s “getting divorced against his will”, and he tried to talk her out of it. Despite Pete’s pleas, Ashlee moved ahead with the divorce.

So sad!
