Kat Von D and Jesse James Call Off Engagement, Break Up

Though they looked very much like a couple made in tattoo parlor heaven, Kat Von D and Jesse James have called time on their relationship. The engagement is off, folks.

Since the very first days of their relationship, Kat and Jesse were dogged by negative media reports, thanks in large part to James' unpopularity in the wake of his divorce from Sandra Bullock. Many pointed out that it might be unwise to wed a man nationally regarded as a serial cheater. However, Kat insisted that she connected with Jesse on another level, as they had known each other for years.

With the release of his book American Outlaw, James gave a host of interviews in which he favorably compared Kat to his famous ex-wife Sandra, most notably when he told Howard Stern that Kat was a "vixen" in bed. Ugh.

But it looks like Ms. Von D has avoided becoming the fourth Mrs. James: She tweeted Monday evening, "I am no longer w Jesse, and out of respect for him, his family and myself, thats all the info I'd like to share. Thanks for respecting that."

That's all she wrote! Though these two have been dodging breakup rumors for months, it's still kind of shocking that we'll have to wait to see Kat get wifed up. At least Kat's in good company: It seems like every major celebrity has a broken engagement.
