The couple called it quits "after a nasty fight broke out at his house last night and cops were called...[when] Shanna started freaking out and acting irrational," a source tells Us.

No charges were filed.

"Travis confronted Shanna about her having an affair with Gerard Butler while he was in the hospital recovering," the source says.

Barker's rep tells Us: "After surviving the plane crash his driving force in life is the love he has for his kids. He is tired of all other drama and is ready to move on." (Source)

Great news for those of you wondering what exactly happens to skin when you light it on fire: Travis Barker was seen in public yesterday for the first time since the plane crash he was in last month. It looks like his recovery's going well. I wish I could say the same about me and that vicious papercut I received yesterday. Owie, owie, owie!

Travis Barker is back on the meat team

A vegetarian for 25 years, Travis Barker has started eating meat again to help speed along his recovery from that inconvenient plane crash he was in last month. He told Us Weekly:

"I need protein from food rather than just protein supplements. I changed my diet. I would do anything I possibly could if they said like, 'There's a possibility you might heal faster if you do eat meat or just change your eating habits.' So I did. I don't regret it at all, I feel so much better." (Source)

Uh oh, PETA is gonna be pissed. It's a good thing their diet of tofu and lettuce doesn't give them enough strength to picket Barker's hospital.

Travis Barker and DJ AM crash aftermath caught on tape

There's video of the aftermath of the Saturday morning plane crash that claimed four lives and critically injured Travis Barker and DJ AM. You can hear Barker pleading with a police officer to call an ambulance. He's actually pretty composed for a guy whose jet just exploded. If I had been in the same situation as Barker, I'm sure I wouldn't have been able to get a word out other than "Mommy."

DJ AM and Travis Barker at the MTV Video Music Awards (9/7)

Former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and DJ AM are both in critical condition after the Learjet they were traveling in crashed shortly after take off from a Columbia, South Carolina, airport early Saturday morning. Four others -- the two pilots, a security guard, and Barker's assistant -- were killed. From Us Weekly:

Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Kathleen Bergen tells the Associated Press the plane, carrying six people, was departing shortly before midnight Friday when air traffic controllers reporting seeing sparks. It appears the plane was attempting to take off, ran off the runway through a fence and hit an embankment, according to initial reports. The plane then caught fire.

Sources tell TMZ.com that Barker and DJ AM saved their own lives by jumping out the door of the burning plane, almost immediately after the small jet came to a halt. (Source)

I think the only proper response here is: HOLY SHIT.

Despite the fact they've been at each other's throat since they split, Travis Barker and Shana Moakler were recently seen kissing at Winston's, Los Angeles' newest hot spot. However, friends of the couple say Shana and Travis are still serious about getting a divorce:

"She will always be Travis' girl," said a pal, "but never [again] his wife." The source also assured us that the rocker and his reality-star ex "are definitely not getting back together."

What about how Shana's supposed to hate Travis because he hooked up with her arch nemesis Paris Hilton? If there's one thing I learned from my father--besides how to talk you way out of a domestic violence arrest--it's that you should always keep grudges. Not only does it keep you on your toes, it's healthy for your complexion. I certainly never forgave my neighbor after he trampled my prize-winning roses. Five straight victories at the county fair, bitch.

Former Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker claims he "tongue kisses" Paris Hilton--not as a sign of affection--but simply as a greeting (Note: The above picture is of Paris and Travis greeting each other at Hyde in Los Angeles. Either Travis painted his face for Halloween or the syphillis he contracted is spreading much quicker than previously believed). Since Travis broke it off with his wife, former Miss USA Shanna Moakler, he's been a frequent companion of Paris:

He said: "Paris and I have tongue kissed before. It's not unusual for me to say hello to Paris and kiss her, but it's not like we are a couple or anything. When we see each other, we say hello. That's it."

If Paris greets her "friends" with a tongue kiss, how the hell does she greet her boyfriends? I imagine it's some combination of panties around the knees and ankles behind the head. She's classy like that. The story continues:

The rocker's affectionate friendship with Paris has wrecked his marriage to Shanna Moakler. The former beauty queen complained: "I saw pictures of him trying to stick his tongue down Paris's throat at the mansion. It was in very poor taste."

"Poor taste" is certainly an interesting choice of words considering the cake Shanna had made for her "divorce party" last weekend.

Former Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker has unknowingly suffered from a broken arm for the past three weeks and may have a tumor in his arm. The star has been forced to cancel upcoming shows with his new band +44.

"I played our entire European leg of our promo tour in the worst pain I've experienced ever. I got x-rays in London by an urgent care doctor that said he couldn't determine what exactly had happened. "When I got back to LA I saw another doctor and had every test possible to see what was going on in my arm. "The MRI/x-ray showed I had been playing with a broken arm for 3 weeks and or a possible tumor in my arm. I'm at a loss for words, just taking everything one day at a time."

So either his arm is broken or he has a tumor? Who the hell is giving Travis Barker medical advice? Talk about casting your net wide. If I went into the doctor feeling sick and he told me I had either a cold or lung cancer, I would walk out. But not before staring menacingly in his general direction. Intimidation is my game.

By the way, the arm may be the most unsympathetic place you could get a tumor. It narrowly beats out the tip of your ear and the side of your big toe.
