Christie Brinkley Catches Ex Billy Joel At Shea Stadium's Last Show

Access Hollywood - July 19, 2008 3:47 PM PDT

NEW YORK, New York -- In her first public appearance since settling a very public divorce trial with ex-husband Peter Cook, Christie Brinkley went out to see another ex - piano man Billy Joel.

Joel, who was married to Brinkley from 1985-1994 and is the father of daughter Alexa Ray, headlined the final concert in New York's Shea Stadium on Friday night.

The performance came 43 years after the ballpark's first concert, the Beatles' famous 1965 show that came at the height of Beatlemania. Former Beatle Paul McCartney joined Joel onstage on Friday for the historic occasion, telling him, "Came here a long time ago. We had a blast that night and we're having another one tonight," according to the Associated Press.

The stadium will be razed after the baseball season to make way for new one, Citi Field, across the street.

Joel was joined by other guests including the Who's Roger Daltrey and Aerosmith's Steven Tyler, but it was her ex's music that most impressed Brinkley - she was reportedly sighted singing along to ever word of the chorus of "She's Always A Woman."

"She was having the best time singing to the music," an onlooker told People. "She was smiling so much."

In the July 10 divorce settlement, Brinkley earned sole custody of her two children with Cook, Jack, 13, and Sailor, 10, as well as retaining various real estate properties.

    Hopefully Christy will reconnect with Billy and make a second go of it with him.

    For the people making rude comments about this woman you all need help. You know nothing about her. She and Billy have always remained friends. I think it is great that she went out to support him and he gave her much support when she was dealing with her cheating ass husband who liked to look at porn and date little girls

    Personally I feel that this situation was made way too public. I could careless about her marriage situation one way or the other. It's not our business. I believe this was her fourth marriage. I think she shouldn't jump up and marry so quickly the next time. If she keeps going down this path she will pass Elizabeth Taylor.

    Some people need to get the facts straight , before calling Christy names it must make you feel real good about yourself to put down people you really know nothing about . Only whatever smut mag you read .
