Dita Von Teese
When famous burlesque star Dita Von Teese found out that her husband, Marilyn Manson, was cheating, she wanted nothing to do with him or those bad memories.
“I left with nothing. I knew that there was an inappropriate relationship going on in [my home], and I didn’t want any part of it around to remind me. I didn’t want that sofa. I didn’t want that bed.”

Stephanie March
How much is tasting popular recipes worth? Stephanie March tried to argue that her quality control over celebrity chef Bobby Flay’s recipes entitled her to at least a few million in the divorce.
