    Actress Zooey Deschanel files for divorce in LA

    LOS ANGELES (AP) — Zooey Deschanel has filed for divorce from her rocker husband of two years.

    The actress filed for divorce in Los Angeles on Dec. 27 from Ben Gibbard, citing irreconcilable differences. The former couple announced they had broken up in November.

    The 31-year-old actress stars in the Fox sitcom "New Girl" and was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for her performance. Gibbard is the lead singer of the rock band Death Cab for Cutie, which released the album "Codes and Keys" in May.

    Deschanel and Gibbard were married in September 2009 and have no children together.

    Deschanel's publicist has said that the couple's split was "amicable."

      Celebrity marriage years are like dog years, so they were really married for 14 regular people years.

      I don't like that people get married, then a month or year later they get divorced. Its like a drive through it means nothing. Its nice, fun and feels good when you fall in love, but you have to get to know the other person, don't rush. Being married is hard work you have to be able to give your self to the other person, mind, body, soul its more then just best friends, its having at times to carry the whole relationship, its bad times when you want to give up and don't. Its waking up to the same face for years and still being happy. Its going on after there gone, not because you can, but because they want you to, no matter how much you don't want to because a half of you is dead too. Marriage is not for wimps its hard, also the greatest thing you can do, if you find the right person.

        I think they were trying to find the right person? I also believe that what you stated is obvious to all of the people you are addressing. The statements are valid and true; they are also a bit of a waste to state about Zooey and Demi and Kim and Katy at this point (oh and their respective spouses)?! I don't dislike the statement just wonder if it is news to anyone?
        28 yrs into my second marriage. The first was a disaster and we are both better off divorced; suffering through 50 years to honor a commitment to God and the paper license is ridiculous!
      • Katherine 4 mths ago
        I too am on my second marriage (36 years) The first was two 18 year old kids not knowing any better and playing house till life became real and it was not fun any more. That is what these people are doing. I don't think you make a commitment to a piece of paper or God but to the other person.

      Perhaps her and Joseph Gordon-Levitt were doing more than just singing a duet on New Year's Eve :)
      • Losgann 4 mths ago

      • brian kalomo 4 mths ago
        ha no child anyway they are not compatible and they don't deserve each other.
      • Jimmy 4 mths ago
        Gordon-Levitt is gay so I doubt it.
    • william  •  Los Angeles, California  •  4 mths ago
      It was a case where they were always wondering which one of them should change their name first...
    • DARRYL  •  Cincinnati, Ohio  •  4 mths ago

    • CC Princess  •  Englewood, Colorado  •  4 mths ago
      why are some of the comments saying celebs get divorced too often, or get divorced because they are celebs. We just hear about them, and not the general public that gets divorced too. Expect for the Kardashians, they are idiots
    • Allan  •  4 mths ago
      cool
      now Zoey can hook up with Katy Perry.........

    • T  •  Miami, Florida  •  4 mths ago
      No way, another failed Hollywood relationship.
    • A Yahoo! User  •  Pahrump, Nevada  •  4 mths ago
      I wonder if she is out looking under a rock for another husband... Why do these girls, Zooey, Demi, Kidman etc marry these Dirty Hair Dirty Neck untalented slugs ?
    • Mike  •  Beech Grove, Indiana  •  4 mths ago
      No big surprise. Hollywood/celebrity "marriage" is equivalent to what real world people call dating.
    • ppLRmean  •  Tucson, Arizona  •  4 mths ago
      These Hollow-wood types don't know what marriage means. They get a pube twisted, and OH NO! D-I-VO-R-C-E! They get in an argument, then it's bye-bye! #$%$ They need to look up VOWS in the dictionary! ARRRRGH!
    • TopazRN  •  4 mths ago
      wow, these ppl don't even give it a good try before they divorce. Why even get married?
