While the average Joe without kids who files for divorce usually only has to worry about some gossip and possible social media slander, there was considerably more on the line for these 14 people who battled their exes in court.

Everything from high dollar alimony payouts to made for reality television lawsuits were on the table when these celebs went Kramer Vs. Kramer.

Usher Raymond AND Tameka Foster

The moment everyone except Usher seemed to predict eventually came when he faced off with his ex-wife Tameka Foster two years after getting hitched. The result was a lengthy custody battle, plenty of slander, and probably a song or two.

Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries

Kim Kardashian

NBA fringe rotation player Kris Humphries was married to Kim Kardashian for 72 days. They spent 536 days (roughly a year and a half) battling in court over the details of their divorce. That pretty much sums up the Hollywood Divorce.

Sofia Vergara and Nick Loeb

Sofia Vergara

Modern Family star Sofia Vergara and her billionaire boyfriend weren’t even married. But in a move that sounds like some ish out of a sci-fi flick, Nick Loeb wanted to keep her frozen embryos. Stalk much?

Wiz Khalifa and Amber Rose

Admittedly, there wasn’t much battling when it came to Wiz and Amber. The leader of the Taylor Gang reportedly had an iron clad prenuptial agreement that limited Amber’s takeaway to an even million.

Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry

The person who held the distinction as one of the most attractive women on the planet had to dish out $15,000 to her struggle ex-husband Gabriel Aubry, and they’ve squared off on everything from visitation rights to not perming their child’s hair.

Kelis and Nas

Nas

As if the chorus of “Caught Out There” wasn’t enough of an indication, Kelis doesn’t play nice when it comes to breakups. She tapped Nas’ pockets to the tune of $10,000 per month in 2010 during their bitter divorce.

50 Cent

Let Fif himself tell it: “After the VMA’s my baby mama kicked my a– out / I whipped her a , we bad friends like Puffy and Steve Stoute.” 50 Cent is merciless, even when it comes to his ex.

Chris Rock and Malaak Compton,

Chris Rock

Since Chris Rock and his now ex-wife, Malaak Compton’s prenup has expired, he might have to cough up half of his $70 million fortune. Somebody queue the Umfufu jokes from Eddie Murphy: Raw.

Terrence and Laurie Howard

Terrence Howard

Each time Terrence Howard gets dragged to court by one of his exes, he ends up looking more and more like a real life Lucious Lyon. From his own admission of having drug binges with wife number three to wifey number one’s allegations of domestic abuse, it’s all bad.

Marvin Gaye

With not much in the form of liquid assets, Marvin Gaye recorded Here My Dear in 1977 and 1988 under a judge’s orders that the proceeds would go to his wife, Anna Gordy, as part of their divorce settlement.

Floyd Mayweather

Suffice it to say, there’s a basis for the slander about Floyd being a notorious misogynist and beater of women. Feel free to check the police reports for yourself.

Paul McCartney and Heather Mills

Paul McCartney

The upside of divorcing one of The Beatles is that you walk away with $50 million on one leg. Heather Mills managed to pull off that feat after divorcing McCartney in 2008.

Donald Sterling

All Shelly Sterling did was double the amount her racist, cheating ex-husband was going to get for the L.A. Clippers by forcing him to sell the team. She also managed to make his sidepiece, V. Stiviano, give back what Donald Sterling tricked off on her. For her thanks, she was served with divorce papers.
