David Copperfield, one of the world’s wealthiest magicians, has been making millions off of his Las Vegas act for years.
Children of divorce understand the highs and lows of having two sets of everything. Separated parents often means two houses, two routines, and two sets of rules. Some separations end up in bitter custody battles where somebody wins, but certainly not the children -- especially when they involve a third (or fourth or tenth) wheel.
‘Father absence’ is a situation where a child doesn’t live with the father, either because the parents have split up or have never lived together to begin with. It doesn’t always mean a child has never had contact with his biological dad, although that’s also an absent-father scenario.
There are things that a sane person wouldn’t (or shouldn’t) do for a million bucks like eating vomit or performing any of the stunts that the ‘Jackass’ actors do. In the real world, you can just say no to ridiculous, sometimes life-threatening dares.

During a divorce, a couple typically goes through the painstaking process of equally dividing their marital assets: house, vehicle, jewelry, and even pets. The divorce process can drag on for months or even years and can be very expensive. Selling your ceramic fish statue and rainbow-colored punchbowl may not fetch a hefty sum, but you could recoup your divorce spendings by auctioning these off alongside other conjugal properties.
Nothing humanizes celebrities more than news of them driving recklessly and trying to get out of it with a creative excuse. We’ve already covered celebs running over the paparazzi, and we know that those “accidents” were motivated by the desire to run over photogs who overstep the boundaries of decency.
And it’s even funnier when celebrities are involved!
George Clooney is a master prankster who has been pulling off elaborate practical jokes on his fellow A-listers for years, but he’s never been in hot water for his stunts. Similarly, Ellen Degeneres can get away with humiliating Taylor Swift on national TV because she’s...Ellen.
