We hear a lot about celebrities getting taking to the cleaners during divorce proceedings. Tiger Woods, Michael Strahan, Paul McCartney, Madonna, Michael Douglas, Harrison Ford, Michael Jordan, Steven Spielberg all lost huge amounts of money in their divorces.
Apparently Russell Brand is cut from a different cloth because he's refusing to take the $20 million he's entitled to in his pending divorce from Katy Perry according to TMZ.
Katy made $44 million between May, 2010 and May, 2011. The couple didn't have a prenup so everything they made during that time period is community property, but Russell doesn't want his 50%.
"This divorce is as amicable as it gets, and Russell was a mensch (Yiddish for a good person)," says a source.
Is he nuts for not taking the money?

You gotta bet big to win big and vice versa.
Gucci Mane's bank account is $20,000 lighter today after losing a bet over the weekend.
The rapper said via Twitter that he would bet anyone 20K, that wanted to take the Green Bay Packers vs his Atlanta Falcons.
"i got 20k on them dirty birds any body want this bet who like green bay. straight up who want the bet," Gucci tweeted Friday (January 15).
It wasn't long before Gucci came back and said that Cash Money CEO Birdman had taken him up on his offer.
"Stunna took the bet my boy we bet everyweek and get it how we live follow my brother @BIRDMAN5STAR," Gucci tweeted.
Birdman is no stranger to big bets. He claimed to have bet $4million dollars on Floyd Mayweather Jr against Sugar Shane Mosley last May.
And just like he did with Mayweather, Stunna won with the Pack as they manhandled the Dirty Birds 48-21 on Saturday (January 16).
Neither Birdman or Gucci have tweeted since the 15th, but it's highly unlikely Stunna would rub it in publicly. And it's also doubtful Gucci would brag about losing 20 G's

Trash talking is just as fun for the fans as it is for the players in any sport.
Big Snoop Dogg and Donnie Wahlberg are putting their money where their mouths are according to BallerStatus.
The Boston Celtics leads the NBA Finals by a 3 games to 2 lead over the Los Angeles Lakers, but that's not stopping Snoop, a big L.A. fan from throwing down a $20,000 bet with the money going to charity.
Snoop put out a video challenge "What it do, Big Snoop Dogg, Lakers fan #1. Wahlberg what it do? Y'all want that bet? Let's get it crackin'. "20 Gs to your favorite charity, Lakers beat the Celtics, that's what it do!"
Wahlberg quickly accepted and upped the ante by challenging Snoop to settle the bet in public at a New Kids On The Block concert at Radio City Music Hall in New York.
"I'll pay for the flight, rooms and expense. The loser steps on stage in the other [team's] jersey to hand over the check!" Wahlberg wrote via his Twitter account.
That's wassup, hope they videotape this, lol.
