ELISABETH MOSS VS. FRED ARMISEN! 'MAD MEN' ACTRESS TALKS MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE TO 'PORTLANDIA' STAR (VIDEO)
Mad Men actress Elisabeth Moss is finally speaking out on her short, difficult marriage to Portlandiastar Fred Armisen. The two were married for eight months until their sudden divorce in 2010, but Moss revealed that her time with Armisen was “horrible” and “extremely traumatic." The actress made the surprising comments in a cover interview with New Yorker magazine.
Wearing nothing but a pair of denim overalls on the cover, Moss reflected back on the difficult marriage with Armisen. "I feel like I was really young, and at the time I didn't think that I was that young. It was extremely traumatic and awful and horrible,” said Moss. She previously said in 2012 that "one of the greatest things I heard someone say about him is, 'He's so great at doing impersonations. But the greatest impersonation he does is that of a normal person.'"

Of course, Armisen’s track record speaks for itself: he’s been married and divorced three times. In a 2012 interview with Howard Stern, he admitted being a “terrible husband” and exhibited plenty of self-loathing. "I feel bad for everyone I've gone out with," he said. "Somewhere around a year, two years, I get freaked out. I don't want to admit that (I feel entitled to more women), but that probably is it." Armisen also said his marriage to British singer Molly Timms, which was from 1998-2004, was done "more for her green card.”

Despite the difficulty in her marriage to Armisen, Moss has gotten herself back on track. She will reprise her role as Peggy Olson in the upcoming seventh series of Mad Men and won a Best Actress Golden Globe last January. She also thinks her next relationship will be much healthier. “It turned out for the best,” she said. "I'm glad that I'm not there. I'm glad that it didn't happen when I was 50. I'm glad I didn’t have kids. And I got that out of the way. Hopefully. Like, that's probably not going to happen again."
The first half of the final season of Mad Men premieres on Sunday, April 13 at 10 PM ET/PT on AMC.

'American Idol': Which of the Top 13 got sent home?
American Idol voters had already decided once they didn't want to keep Kristen O'Connor around — last week, when they picked their Top 10 finalists.
The 24-year-old from Sebastian, Fla., didn't win over too many new fans this week with her rendition of Kelly Clarkson's Beautiful Disaster. Of the three wild-card finalists picked by the judges — O'Connor, Jena Irene and C.J. Harris — O'Connor was the only one in the Bottom Three on Thursday night after viewers cast 71 million votes.
The night had begun with the group singing a medley of One Republic's Counting Stars and Imagine Dragons' Radioactive that began backstage. Last year's winner, Candice Glover, returned to the show to sing a medley of two songs off her debut album, Music Speaks, released last week. And 19-year-old British singer-songwriter Jake Bugg, a favorite of Keith Urban's, sang Me and You from his Shangri La album.
By the end of the night, the choice had come down to O'Connor, Malaya Watson and MK Nobillette.
And the voters had spoken — or, perhaps more accurately, not spoken. O'Connor was at the bottom of the voting tally, and she's the first finalist to leave the show this year.
"I learned a lot," she told Ryan Seacrest after she learned her fate. "From the time I auditioned until right now, I learned so much about myself as a performer."
Next week's theme on Idol will be "Home" — as in the place from which O'Connor will be watching the show.
