5 Ways Famous People Should Be More Like Us in a Custody Battle

Celebrities may be consciously uncoupling, but the rest of us are just going through a crappy divorce.  They might be prettier, richer or thinner, but they are parents just the same.  They are the stars of major motion pictures or maybe just reality TV, but we are bombarded with their daily lives from the mundane, to the unbelievable.  When famous people divorce and the details emerge, which they inevitably do, they are suddenly less glamorous and become more like, well, the rest of us.  There is less money now that they’re fighting over it.  They are less pretty, as they bare the ugly realities of their lives (sometimes intentionally) in tabloids and on talk shows.  They are certainly less funny, as a divorce is never funny when children are involved.  Despite the fact that we may tune in to hear about a celebrity's latest multi-million dollar deal, or enjoy watching a good throw-down with their best socialite friend, we really don’t want to see their children anything but happy.
