About Steven Spielberg

Well, I’ve got a bit of Hollywood gossip for you all that might just add a little chuckle to your day; the one and only Steven Spielberg and his immense success…in giving away fortunes! I hope he’s not too partial to those hundred million dollars, because he sure did wave goodbye to them! Spielberg, the long-acclaimed director of epics like E.T. and Jaws, waves Mr Nice Guy too seriously, even when it comes to the mortgage-wrenching subject of divorce.

With one single Spielberg theme tune, sit back and let me dip into the realm of love turned sour - the 1989 divorce of Steven Spielberg from Amy Irving. Could our beloved E.T maestro, Mr Spielberg, manage the divorce rather amicably? Was blaring Jaws' ominous theme playing as the unlikely couple emerged from the courtroom? Budget move, Spielberg, you snatched the King of BoxOffice title, but your ex-flame Amy Irving walked away with a hilarious (well, maybe for us) total of $100 million dollars, becoming the undisputed Queen of Divorce Settlements!

The lesson here? Even for the creator of adventurous prodigies and heartwarming tales, and despite an apprentice in the School of Hard knocks (read: Love), Spielberg shockingly failed to grasp this crucial principle— prenuptial agreements are as essential as the camera in your endeavors, Stevie.Wasn’t there a scene to educate him about prenups in the plentiful epics he dished out? Spielberg dear, haven't the generous loans Shark (of Jaws fame) extended you shrunk your considerable fortune enough?

There you have it folks, the most playful creative genius of our time - meeting the destiny none of us would want. A little advice Steven- Heart lost, don’t let fortune follow.
