Sinead O'Connor tied the knot only eighteen days ago to Barry Herridge, and already, the "Nothing Compares 2 U" singer has called it quits.
 
On her official website, O'Connor, 45, wrote:
    "[There was] a wild ride I took us on looking for a bit of a smoke of weed for my wedding night as I don't drink. My husband was enormously wounded and very badly affected by that experience and also by the attitude of those close to him toward our marriage. It became apparent to me that if he were to stay with me he would be losing too much to bear."
She went on to say that "within three hours the ceremony being over the marriage was kyboshed by the behavior of certain people in my husband's life."

O'Connor and Herridge, 38, tied the knot at Las Vegas' Little White Wedding Chapel. Sinead adds, "A woman wants to be a joy to her husband. So you love someone? Set them free."

Before marrying Herridge, the singer was married to journalist Nicholas Sommerlad, musician Steve Cooney and music producer John Reynolds.

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo FLOPS At The Box Office


The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo had a budget close to $90 million, however the highly-anticipated flick only brought in $13 million during opening weekend.

When asked if that makes Dragon Tattoo a flop, one movie analyst tells E!:
    "A debut of $13 million over the holiday season is equivalent to a lump of coal, especially for a film that brings along this much fanfare. With a budget approaching $90 million, plus purchasing the rights to the Millennium franchise, plus big-time marketing, this will go down as a dud."
Ouch! In positive box office news, Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol raked in $26.5 million, followed by Sherlock Holmes with $17.8 million. Rounding out the top three.... the newest Chipmunks flick.

We'll see if Dragon Tattoo picks up steam at the box office as the new year approaches.

Maria Shriver is telling friends she's now unsure if she wants to divorce Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Sources say Maria is torn, partly because of her strong religious beliefs that do not include divorce. 

Making matters even more complicated -- Arnold still desperately wants Maria back, and has been "extremely sweet" to her and has made numerous gestures -- which include presents -- to win Maria back.

Maria filed for divorce on July 1, though she moved out months earlier.  She's already bought a mansion in Brentwood, CA, which she's in the process of renovating.

Mission: Impossible: Ghost Protocol is Box Office Gold!


Paramount’s Mission: Impossible: Ghost Protocol towered above a slew of imposing openers and strong holdovers as it grossed an estimated $25.8 million over the Friday-to-Sunday holiday period and $39.5 million between Friday and Monday. The film, which opened last weekend primarily in a limited number of IMAX theaters, expanded on Wednesday, and will have earned around $71.9 million domestically as of Monday.

Two holdover films finished in second and third place, with Warner Bros.’ Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows and Fox’s Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked grossing $17.8 million and $13.3 million respectively for the three-day weekend. Three new films followed with relatively soft numbers. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, which some pundits had expected would give Ghost Protocol a run for the money, proved to be somewhat of a disappointment as it collected $13 million over the three days to place fourth.

Steven Spielberg’s The Adventures of Tintin proved to be an even greater disappointment. Although it opened strongly overseas, where it has collected $230 million to date, its opening in North America brought in only $8.8 million for the three days. Another Spielberg film, War Horse, is being launched today (Sunday). And Cameron Crowe’s We Bought a Zoo appeared mighty toothless as it debuted with just $7.8 million.
