Enough Already

Heather Locklear snuffed out any prayers Bon Jovi rocker Richie Sambora had of keeping their marriage together. Yesterday, Locklear called it quits after 11 years and one child, Ava Elizabeth.

The couple was reportedly on the rocks for months, but tried to reconcile at the end of last year. All calls were referred yesterday to her publicist Cece York, who sent out a release stating, "Heather Locklear has filed for divorce from Richie Sambora.

This is a private matter and there will be no further comment at this time."

Britney Gets 'Refocused'

It's been almost two years since Britney Spears first fell for the elusive charms of Kevin Federline, and since then she's gone from a hard-working pop pinup to a schlumpy homebody. Now, four months after the arrival of chubby-cheeked Sean Preston, the Britster may be preparing to make some changes.

A posting on her official fan club site -- where a mere $24.98-a-year subscription fee gets you such must-have Britney bonuses as access to advanced ticket sales, even though she hasn't been on tour for more than a year -- trumpets the arrival of a "remixed, re-inspired and refocused" Spears.

But is Britney's "new chapter" little more than a one-shot appearance on a show destined for the primetime scrap heap?

"Access Hollywood" reports that Mrs. Federline will become the latest in an endless parade of guest stars who have attempted (and mostly failed) to prove their comedic chops on NBC's soon-to-be-put-out-to-pasture "Will & Grace" (the sitcom's best celebrity cameo: Matt Damon; the worst: a tie between Madonna and Demi Moore -- not that we watch or anything).

An insider says the deal has been inked and Spears, who reportedly coveted the Daisy Duke role in "Dukes of Hazzard" that eventually went to Razzie-nominated Jessica Simpson, will go before the cameras next month. She'll play a Christian conservative talk show host who gets some schooling from Will (Eric McCormack) and Jack (Sean Hayes). The episode will air April 13.
And for those hoping Britney's "new chapter" would begin without her "PopoZao"-spouting hubby (and you know who you are), we have bad news: The rumor-plagued pair put in a lovey-dovey appearance at a post-SAG Awards soiree Sunday night (because when we think achievement in acting, we think of the stars of the craptacular "Chaotic").

The scrubbed-up Federlines, who ditched their usual uniform of unbound, someone-could-put-an-eye-out cleavage (her) and baggy, saggy he-capris and white tank top (him) for a '80s prom dress and ill-fitting suit, made the scene at a People magazine bash, where they "cutely nuzzled" in a bodyguard-surrounded corner booth, reports Teen People.

Britney bopped along to the music before hitting the dance floor with her former backup-hoofer hubby, shaking her semi-retired moneymaker to the Pussycat Dolls' "Don't Cha" and Madonna's "Holiday."

But the down-market duo reportedly decided to pack things in early, exiting the shindig at 11:30 and heading home to baby Sean.

Jolie & Pitt

Follow the Overheard: The supersnooper stars of the week have to be the folks at Star magazine, who "lucked into" having a reporter lounging at the empty Hotel Bel-Air bar when Angelina Jolie breezed in for a meeting with director Robert Rodriquez (Spy Kids, Sin City).

The mag's fly on the wall overheard Rodriguez pitching a job to Angelina (and offering to create a role for Brad just to sweeten the deal). While she didn't exactly pass on the unknown project (we're hoping it's Mr. & Mrs. Smith vs. Spy Kids, Angelina did stall, citing her ballooning midsection. Rodriguez, proud papa to five of his own, couldn't resist the small talk and asked her how many kids she and Brad planned to have. "Thirteen," she said. "But we're going to adopt the rest.

I can't stand to be pregnant again, and that's how many we want. And I sure as hell ain't squeezing those out." Also, if eavesdroppers can be believed, Angelina went on to say (among other things): The baby is due June 6 (though Us Weekly says it's May 2); she and Brad will never get married because they've both been scarred by divorce; and she'll have a C-section if the baby is more than a few days late (on the advice of her mother, Marcheline Bertrand.)

In a sidebar from a second snooper, Brad says he and Angie are planning to get married "very soon." Which means there's either big trouble brewing, or Mr. and Mrs. Smith have mounted a misinformation campaign that would do the CIA proud.
