In Touch Exclusive:
Kat Von D's shady past

Jesse James’ new girlfriend, Kat Von D, once said she’d like to be remembered as “a good friend to everyone.” But if that’s what she wants, she may have a long way to go, Oliver Peck — who owns Elm Street Tattoo in Dallas and was married to Kat from 2003 to 2007 — tells In Touch in an exclusive interview. “She’s the most self-centered person I’ve ever been involved with,” he shares. “Toward the end of our marriage,” Oliver claims, “she was wanting to get liposuction, and she was taking drugs in order to lose weight.”

Her newfound fame changed her in other ways, too. Kat “got to the point where she was drinking until she was throwing up every day,” shares Oliver of the 28-year-old, who finally got sober in 2008. “She’d be incoherent and sometimes destructive.” Oliver says he tried to stand by her — until a friend told him “she was having an affair.”

The idea of a marriage-ending affair is ironic, considering that her new boyfriend is one of Hollywood’s most notorious cheaters. “Kat and I met Jesse and Sandra [Bullock] about four years ago at a party,” reveals Oliver. “Kat said she thought Jesse wasn’t very cool.”

Kim & Reggie’s Secret Plans To Elope
It was something no one could ever imagine Kim Kardashian doing in a million years: taking a trip to see a boyfriend without posing for a single photo op. But that’s exactly what Kim did in early February when she secretly flew to Miami to hook up with her on-again love, Reggie Bush. Holed up in a private residence for several days, the notorious fame-seeker intentionally avoided the paparazzi. “She didn’t go out once,” marvels an insider, “and they weren’t seen in public together, per his request.””

Demi’s Thriving In Rehab
Just a few weeks ago, Demi Moore was so distraught over her breakup with her cheating husband, Ashton Kutcher, that she was literally starving herself to death. Dangerously fragile — both emotionally and physically — Demi existed solely on lettuce, liquids and pills, and friends feared for her life. But fortunately, Demi checked into rehab before it was too late — and In Touch has learned that she’s been making a remarkable recovery.

Hunger Games’ Jennifer: So In Love
In The Hunger Games, Jennifer Lawrence’s character, Katniss Everdeen, is torn between two boys — but off-screen the actress only has eyes for Nicholas Hoult! “Their chemistry is great!” an eyewitness tells In Touch of the couple, who strolled with their arms wrapped around each other in LA on February 15.

Katy’s On The Prowl
Katy Perry seems to have very strange — some would even say bad — taste in men. First there was oddball sex addict Russell Brand, and now comes word she has a big crush on a married man! Yes, Gwyneth Paltrow’s husband, Chris Martin, was the object of Katy’s lust at the MusiCares Person of the Year Tribute to Paul McCartney on February 10, where Katy performed. According to an insider, she never took her eyes off Chris while he performed with his band Coldplay.
