[She] has been telling people she’s pregnant, although she may only be saying it as a threat to Criss.

If this is true I dislike Criss Angel more than I did before. I honestly had never heard of him until he starting dating Cameron Diaz and to find that while he was making such gushy comments about her and how much he loves her, he is married to another woman? YICK! I really don’t respect people who don’t have the decency to end one relationship before starting another.

Best wishes to his wife for a healthy pregnancy if its true but if she is just saying it ‘as a threat to Criss’ and is not pregnant – not classy, not classy at all.

Anyone reading this should check out Criss’s statement on entertainment tonight’s website. Joanne is obviously just out to get his money. She filed for divorce 14 months ago and Criss met Cameron close to a year after that.
I’m going to have to side with Criss on this one.

I think RaeAnne is correct. Joanne is only saying that to get to his money. Joanne is saying it’s Cameron’s fault for the divorce but it’s not. She filed for divorce about a year ago and Criss just started going out with Cameron this year. It is just plain wrong to say your pregnant when your not just to get something you want. I would side more with Criss because yes he did pay for her trips, house, all insurences, bills, and etc. I would also side a little with Joanne but not as much as Criss because Criss did kinda keep their marriage a secret. I didn’t find out Criss was married until I found out about Criss like about year and a half ago. Joanne shouldn’t lie about something so serious just to win in court.

*~I’m siding with CRISS on this~*

Homeboy just signed a contract to stage a $200 million production at Las Vegas’ Luxor hotel in 2008. Can it be any more obvious that she’s after the money??

hmm, after reading all of this stuff that’s been going around about his divorce, it seems to me that his exwife keeps changing her story every chance she gets

I THINK AFTER BEING TOGETHER FOR 15 YEARS, IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MONEY.
CRISS IS A TOP NOTCH CELEBRITY NOW. HE HAS SORT OF LEFT HIS WIFE IN THE WIND, JUST AS SHE HAS SAID. SHE IS HURT.
THEY HAVE ALOT OF HISTORY TOGETHER, AND CRISS SHOULD THINK 4 TIMES BEFORE LETTING THAT GO FOR THE GREENER GRASS ON THE OTHER SIDE WHICH DOES NOT EXIST.
I FEEL FOR THEM BOTH. I HOPE THEY WILL WORK THINGS OUT BEFORE THE FINAL CHAPTER.
