Sizing Up Brinkley’s Latest Divorce

So much for going after Liz Taylor’s record… Last week Christie Brinkley announced that she has sworn off marriage… for good… maybe.

Hollywood’s Biggest Losers

Apparently, it takes one to know one. Honestly, I don’t see why Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards ever divorced. The two are so much alike–they were meant for each other.
