L.A. arson suspect Harry Burkhart -- who was arrested Monday in connection with over 50 fires set in the Hollywood area since last week -- has been placed on suicide watch ... this according to the L.A. Times. It's unclear what Burkhart said during the interrogation process that resulted in the suicide watch. According to the report ... Burkhart has refused to cooperate with authorities in the interrogation -- saying nothing whatsoever about the fires. When he did speak, sources tell the Times, Burkhart went on anti-American rants, blasting law enforcement. 2:17 PM PT : Harry has just been charged with 37 felony counts of arson -- 28 counts of arson of property and 9 counts of arson of an inhabited structure. He's scheduled to be arraigned this afternoon. According to the D.A., Burkhart used a device "designed to accelerate the fire" -- a serious allegation that, if true, would mean even more prison time for Burkhart

It's all fun and games until somebody takes a mistress. Or five. Celebrity gossip is all the more juicy when it involves divorce court, not to mention millions of dollars.In the past few years, we've seen our share of high-profile, messy divorces between athletes and their spouses -- some due to accusations of infidelity. Many of these athletes did sign prenuptial agreements, but they still lost a fortune after walking down the aisle. Here are our top six: 1. Kobe Bryant You knew it was coming.

The NBA star never signed a prenuptial agreement, so Vanessa is entitled to at least half of Kobe's entire fortune, an estimated $150 million, according to the Los Angeles Times . And it gets worse. Because the marriage reached the 10-y

IN THE silly season, celebrity news receives even more prominence than it does over the rest of the year. So it was big news just after Christmas when comedian Russell Brand announced he was divorcing chanteuse Katy Perry after little more than a year of marriage. What emerged was that Brand, 36, a noted hell-raiser not previously known for domesticity, wanted to settle down and start a family but Perry, 27, did not. Like many women her age, the recording star reportedly preferred to concentrate on her burgeoning career, and didn't want to suspend it for motherhood. While the Brand-Perry story is celebrity gossip, it raises serious issues. Most particularly, when one partner wants children, and the other doesn't, what does this mean for the future of a marriage, and is it fair to keep one partner in a marriage when their parenthood hopes and dreams won't be fulfilled as a result?

While we make a quick Target run, we thought it might be fun to ponder what sort of gifts Beyonce and Jay's rich celebrity pals might have planned for her baby shower. After all, mom is a global superstar and dad is a rap legend -- this kid is destined to be pop royalty. Some stupid breast pump simply won't do! The following suggestions, we feel, would make far more worthy presents for 2012's first celebrity parents. From Paul wall: Baby's First Grill ​ If Little Girl Carter is to be a true Houstonian (and let's be clear--we're claiming her), she's going to need some gold on that grin.
