The hunt for the mastermind of the 911 terror attacks is officially over. His body is currently in the custody of US officials and President Obama is about to address the nation.
This is history in the making and exciting news for the world.
Bin Laden created and funded the al Qaeda terror network, which was responsible for the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States. The Saudi exile had been a man on the run since the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan overthrew the ruling Taliban regime, which harbored bin Laden.
Celebrities are turning to Twitter to express their thoughts on this historic moment. Here's what they're saying:

Demi's rep released the following statement to TMZ:
"Demi Lovato left her tour early this weekend in order to seek medical treatment for emotional and physical issues she has dealt with for some time."
The statement continues, "Demi has decided to take personal responsibility for her actions and seek help. She is doing just that. She regrets not being able to finish her tour, but is looking forward to getting back to work in the near future."
Her camp is emphasizing that the treatment isn't drug related, but Demi's certainly been under a lot of stress lately and isn't handling fame so well.
Demi recently told Hollyscoop EXCLUSIVELY at the American Music Awards Nominations that "It's difficult growing up in the public eye," adding, "You're a teenager and you're making mistakes and figuring out who you are, but there is a camera on you with a magnifying glass. It's a part of it, I asked for this it's my dream. You just have to deal with it."
Guess we'll blame her "emotional and physical issues" on that magnifying glass. We wish her the best during this difficult time.
"We are sad that our marriage is over and we wish each other the very best for the future," they said in a statement to People released by Nordegren's Virginia-based law firm of McGuireWoods.
"While we are no longer married, we are the parents of two wonderful children and their happiness has been, and will always be, of paramount importance to both of us."
The documents do not reveal details of the split, but the couple's statement also says, "Once we came to the decision that our marriage was at an end, the primary focus of our amicable discussions has been to ensure their future well-being. The weeks and months ahead will not be easy for them as we adjust to a new family situation, which is why our privacy must be a principal concern."
The amount of the settlement was undisclosed, but varying reports have suggested that Elin could receive anywhere from $100 million in assets to as much as five times that figure. Sources have previously said that custody was the key issue for both, and that the couple wanted to share custody of their two children, Sam Alexis, 3, and Charlie Axel, 1.
Since the split, Tiger and Elin have lived pretty separate lives, only coming in contact for the sake of their children. Elin has been spotted in the Orlando area doing her normal day-to-day activities– running errands and taking her children to school. She also enrolled in psychology classes at Rollins College. But sources say now that the divorce is final, sh may move back to her native Sweden.
A source close to Elin says, "She's feeling okay about all this. She's been through hell but handled herself with such dignity. And now she's got a whole new life ahead of her."
As for Tiger, his golf game has significantly declined. In post-tournament press conferences, he refused to answer questions about his marriage, but did open up about his children. "All that really matters is I have two beautiful kids," he told reporters last month, "and I'm trying to be the best dad I can possibly be, and that's the most important thing of all."
We're certainly not surprised by the news, seeing as though it's been coming for the last few months. But we hope they can each find happiness and stay civil towards each other for their kids.

“Yes, I have filed for divorce,” the actress, 45, tells People magazine. “I’m sad and I am scared.”
Speaking of her three-month-old son Louis Bardo Bullock, Sandra added to People magazine, “It’s like he’s always been a part of our lives. He’s perfect, I can’t even describe him in any other way.”
Jesse James Reacts to Divorce News
Little Louis is named after late singer Louis Armstrong, who was born in New Orleans, because Sandra had his hit ‘What a Wonderful World’ in her head when she first laid eyes on him.
She's also moving forward with divorce plans. Speaking about the legal separation, she said: “I’m sad and I’m scared.”
Despite the messy split, she says of James, "I really don't know how our paths will intersect in the future, but the father I have known Jesse to be ... is one that I hope Louis can experience one day, no matter how Jesse and I go on with our lives."
When asked about the Nazi photos Sandra responded, "The photo shocked me and made me sad. This is not the man I married. This was stupid, this was ignorant. Racism, anti-Semitism, sexism, homophobia, anything Nazi and a boatload of other things have no place in my life." Bullock added, "And the man I married felt the same."
Jesse Leaves Wedding Ring at Rehab
Sandra and her shamed hubby Jesse James started the adoption process over four years ago and its just such a shame that her adoption dreams came true at the same time she found out her husband was having an affair.
We're shocked over the baby news, but happy that she's decided to drop her loser hubby. She can do a million times better than Jesse.
Hollyscoop caught up with David’s co-star Frank Krueger who stared with David in one of his last films Break . Krueger, who is a martial arts practitioner said, “There have always been stories of martial arts societies that kill those that threaten their secrecy. One of the widely held theories about Bruce Lee's death was that he was killed by one of these groups for teaching martial arts secrets."
Krueger admitted that these types of secret societies aren’t unheard of and are pretty widely accepted amongst the martial arts world. "I don't have any knowledge of any specific groups and did not speak to David about any of this," added Krueger.
Krueger does remember hearing stories from David on the set of Break about "standing up to crime families that threatened him back in the seventies."
"He carried himself with a large martial arts presence and from his story it was clear that he was pretty fearless when dealing with groups of that nature," continued Krueger.
Two days before his death, Carradine had flown to Thailand to begin work on his latest film Stretch. The actor was found dead, hanging in the closet, in his luxurious hotel room in Thailand. In regards to his death Krueger said, “I can't say whether or not David was killed for uncovering a secret society or not, but as a martial artist I think it would be a legendary end to an extraordinary life. Like Bruce Lee, mystery often surrounds the death of the great ones.”
Krueger went on to say, "My experience of martial arts is one of enlightenment and growth, not violence and murder. However, it is not inconceivable to me that there could be an ancient society that currently existed that might cause harm to others."
In regards to thoughts that Carradine might have committed suicide, Krueger says, "Personally, as unbelievable as it may sound, the theories currently being discussed as the cause of death make more sense to me than suicide.
"I don't know what happened to David in Bangkok, but hopefully through a formal and thorough investigation, the family will be able to get closure. My heart goes out to them, as I respect David as a martial artist and an actor. David was a fascinating and great man."
Break was one of the last films David Carradine filmed, and will be available on DVD starting July 14. Click here to check out more information on Break.
What are your thoughts in regards to all this. Do you believe David was murdered by a secret Kung Fu sect or did he commit suicide?

If this case feels like it’s been going on forever, it’s partially because of a deadlocked jury back in 2007, making the case a mistrial. 10 were in favor of convicting Spector, while 2 were not.
This second trial lasted 32 hours over a nine-day span. Spector now faces a minimum of 18 years in prison.
Spector was first arrested back in February of 2003 after his limo driver called police to report a dead body in the foyer of the producer’s mansion.
Spector’s chauffeur testified at the initial trial that Spector said to him, “I think I killed somebody.”
Spector met Clarkson at the House of Blues earlier that night, where she worked as a cocktail waitress, and invited her back to his home for a drink. It was the first time the pair had met.
Spector is now in custody, where he will remain until May 29th, when he will be sentenced. 18 years is just the minimum, and he could realistically be looking at life in prison.
