Ever since I wrote that Benedict Cumberbatch “posh-bashing” story last week, I’ve been quietly obsessed with figuring out which of my favorite or not-so-favorite English actors have been “posh” this whole time. Is Henry Cavill posh? I’m looking at his bio on Wiki – he seems to have grown up in an “upper-middle class” family – at least that’s what we in America would call it. His father was a stockbroker, and Cavill went to a prestigious boarding school. I bring up his background because I think it might explain why he was with a international show jumper, an Englishwoman named Ellen Whitaker. Here’s a photo of Ellen:

Maybe I’m being a gauche American, but I always associate that kind of horse culture with the British upper class. It’s totally possible that Henry and Ellen just fell in love and it had nothing to do with horses and the British class system. I’m sure I’m overanalyzing. Anyway, Ellen and Henry dated for three years, even getting engaged at some point. But now they’re over! It really doesn’t sound like there’s much drama:

Henry Cavill and Ellen Whitaker have mutually decided to end their engagement, a source confirms to Us Weekly.

“There was no fallout. They just both agreed it wasn’t working,” the source explains. “They broke up three months ago.”

Whitaker, a champion show jumper, revealed details of Cavill’s proposal in a May 2011 interview with the Belfast Telegraph. “I couldn’t believe it when he asked me to marry him,” Whitaker, 26, said. “I thought we were there to celebrate his birthday. It was such a surprise and I am so happy.”

Best known for his role as Charles Brandon on Showtime’s The Tudors, Cavill, 29, will play Clark Kent/Superman in the highly anticipated 2013 superhero film Man of Steel. His other TV and film credits include Immortals, Tristan + Isolde, The Count of Monte Cristo and Stardust.

So Henry has been single for three months? And there hasn’t been any rumor of any jumpoff and he hasn’t been flaunting any new girlfriend? What world is this?!? Could it be that Henry and Ellen really did just split up, with no other people involved, and that he’s taking his time re-entering the dating pool? Perhaps. I tend to think that it was probably getting more difficult to sustain the relationship given their divergent career paths too – all of a sudden, Cavill is a hot property, and next year we’ll get to see him play Superman in Man of Steel. Shall we watch the trailers again? Superman was a longshoreman, you know.

Hot. So… who will Henry Cavill date next? I really have no idea.

It’s time for a Hollywood history lesson! In early 2006, Hilary Swank and Chad Lowe split up after ten years of marriage. There was some back and forth for a few months when it looked like they might get back together, but then Hilary started being seen around LA with a “mystery man”. The man turned out to be John Campisi, her agent. Her agent who was married with a small child. Around the same time (mid-2006), Hilary gave a somewhat infamous Vanity Fair interview in which she publicly called out Chad Lowe for his addiction issues. Some people thought Hilary was being plainspoken and direct. Some thought she was being off-side and bitchy by airing such personal details about her estranged husband.

Anyway, Chad and Hilary’s divorce eventually came through, and quietly, along that same time period, John Campisi divorced his wife. Hilary and John always claimed that John and his wife were separated when he and Hilary got together, and Hilary has always claimed that they were simply friends for a long time (friends that went on a lot of date-like activities for a year) before becoming romantic. And that’s the way it’s been ever since 2006 – Hilary and John lived together, they openly discussed the possibility of marriage and children (well, she discussed it in interviews)… and now Hilary and John are over.

It wasn’t quite a summer of love for Hilary Swank. A rep for the actress exclusively confirms to PEOPLE that she and boyfriend John Campisi have ended their five-year relationship. The pair split earlier this summer.

The Oscar winner, who has spent the majority of the summer filming Mary & Martha with Brenda Blethyn in South Africa and Wilmington, N.C., and Campisi began dating in 2007.

In 2010, Swank spoke to InStyle about the possibility of getting married again, after her split with ex-husband Chad Lowe.

“Friends of mine and I talk about this. Does someone come into your life for a certain time, and then you are supposed to go your separate ways?” she asked at the time. “There’s a part of me that thinks that’s true.”

My radar is up for possible scandals involving this breakup, and I’m sure some of you will be reviewing old blind items to see what fits. It could be a case of two mature adults simply growing apart and ending their relationship on their terms. Or it could be something juicier. I don’t know at this point. I will say this – I don’t think Swank’s reputation has recovered from last year’s scandal in which Hilary was one of several celebrities paid to make a personal appearance at a Chechen despot’s birthday party. Hilary faced a barrage of criticism, she was forced to offer a somewhat weak apology (but did she give the money back?), and she has been keeping a significantly lower profile ever since. I’m actually thinking that the huge hit Hilary took from that might have affected her relationship with Campisi.

This is just an aside for those of you who followed this Swank-Campisi story for years – do you think Swank regrets all of her public discussion about John Campisi’s young son? She talked about her relationship with Campisi’s son at several interviews over the years, and she even discussed walking around naked in front of the kid. Her Gisele-like public announcements regarding this kid always bothered me.

Loudmouth Jenny McCarthy has been dating Chicago Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher since this April, according to reports. She went public with their relationship sometime in May, and talked about Brian frequently in June when she was promoting her Playboy cover. At that time she also trashed her ex boyfriend of five years, Jim Carrey, for no longer maintaining a relationship with her son Evan, 10, even though Evan is not Jim’s son. Then she announced in July that she was moving with Evan to Chicago. Of course Brian lives in Chicago and people questioned whether it was a good idea to uproot her kid from his friends and school in order to move near her boyfriend of just a few months. Jenny is also from Chicago and has family there, so that probably drove her decision.

Anyway it’s a good thing that Jenny has family in Chicago, because things didn’t work out with Urlacher. Kristen Cavallari will probably be thrilled that Jenny isn’t going to be at the Bears games stealing her thunder. Here’s more:

Jenny McCarthy was relatively tightlipped about her Chicago Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher while they were dating, but now that they’ve called it quits, she’s making it known.

“Brian and I have decided to turn our romance into an amazing friendship,” this year’s July/August Playboy cover girl, 39, tells PEOPLE in a statement on Thursday. “I will continue to be the biggest cheerleader for him. Go, Bears!”

McCarthy played coy when reporters questioned her about her relationship in April, around the time romance rumors with the football pro, 34, first began. She said simply, “I’m giddy about someone.”

The following month, she acknowledged the relationship on the record, saying, “I can confirm that yes, it’s true, we are dating,” but would only continue with, “Go, Bears – that’s all I’ll say.”

[From People]

She’s keeping positive, you’ve got to give her that. I wonder if she’s moved to Chicago yet or if she wisely hedged her bets and waited. Radar reports that she was in the “process of relocating to Chicago to be near him” so maybe it’s not a done deal.

Oh and I was wondering if Brian was away at training camp (something I learned about when covering Tim Tebow recently) and if that may have affected his relationship with Jenny. I consulted Wiki, which has a whole page on the 2012 Bears season, who knew? Wiki claims that “Bears training camp ran from July 25 to August 17 at Olivet Nazarene University. Brian Urlacher did not practice due to a sore knee. He also skipped a practice on August 6, but for personal reasons.” That’s interesting. I’m thinking Jenny was that personal reason.

Remember when Jessica Biel talked to In Style last month and revealed that her fiance, Justin Timberlake, styles her? She also dropped a lot of Hallmark card wisdom about relationships and maintaining her individuality. It was a somewhat revealing look into how she justifies getting engaged to a guy who cheated on her multiple times (allegedly). In a new interview with Hello! Magazine, Jessica does the same thing. It’s really easy to read into her quotes, and I just came away from it feeling sorry for her. She kind of admits that Justin dumped her, and explains why she still feels ok with her decision to get back with him. Granted I’m reading behind the lines, but tell me that’s not what she’s saying here. (Note that these quotes are similar to what she told In Style and The Chicago Sun Times about her long engagement, but they’re somewhat different and Hello presents them like she told them this in person. She’s probably just repeating her talking points. I’ve been fooled by Hello’s format before, which is why I’m mentioning it.)

On being engaged for a long time
“I enjoy being engaged. It’s kind of an amazing time in anyone’s life, I think. People I know who are already married have told me, ‘Don’t rush this period, because you’ll never have it again.’ And I’ve been trying to listen to that advice.

“When we start actually planning the wedding, I’ll really get focused on it and make the decisions and think about the seating charts and the menus and all those things. But for right now, there’s no stress.

“There’s something very romantic and magical about where we are at the moment. I absolutely believe in a long engagement because I want to enjoy this time for as long as possible.”

On her breakup with Justin last year and getting back with him
“Apparently, I needed to be alone for a while. I think that when you take the time to stand by yourself as an independent person, and you find out that you actually are capable of moving forward alone and being fine on your own, then that is a very empowering feeling to have.

“It gives you a lot of strength and a lot of confidence, too, because it means you know that from that point on, any decision you make is an educated one, not just an emotional one. So you can make your own choice about whether to step back into a relationship or whether to go in a different direction. You feel good about who you are – which can only help.”

On the qualities she looks for in a man
“I don’t know that I am attracted to a particular type of man as such. But I like to be with someone who has a sense of humour and a very playful quality and at the same time is very intense about the things he cares about. I like that dichotomy. Also, someone energetic because I’m very energetic myself and I think I would have a hard time living with a couch potato.

“But it’s really about being with someone who can be a partner to me, whom I feel I can trust and who can be non-judgmental about my choices and support me through the rough times when they come along – as I will him.

“And that’s exciting when you find the person, to think about going through all the ups and downs of life and doing it together.”

On her relationship: “nothing is perfect”
“I think that when you’re a little girl, you have the idea of a knight in shining armour scooping you onto a horse and you ride off into the sunset and everything is perfect.

“Now that I’m more mature, I think I have a better understand that life doesn’t work out like that – that nothing is perfect and everything is going to be hard in some way or another. It’s more a case of pick the person that you an ride the waves with, jump into the boat and go for it.”

On her wedding plans, which are vague
“I haven’t even started to think about that yet.

“I do know that it’s not going to be a great big to-do. This will be a very private moment for us, so we’re going to keep it small and intimate. The people I’d most like us to be like are Emily Blunt and John Krasinski – it seemed like one day they were engaged and the next they were married and nobody had known anything about it. And I did at the time think, ‘Aha! That’s the way to do it.’

“I did hear of one couple who did a really great thing. They invited everybody to a Halloween party at which they were dressed up as a bride and groom. And, of course, everyone turned up in gory costumes with blood everywhere. Then in the middle of the party, suddenly the couple said, ‘Surprise! We’re really getting married!’ And they did, with all their friends wearing Halloween costumes. I thought that was a really great idea. So maybe we’ll steal it.”

[From Hello! Magazine, print edition, August 20, 2012]

Notice that she doesn’t say “We” haven’t thought about our wedding plans, she says “I” haven’t thought about it, which is telling. She also never mentions talking about it with Justin. So she felt strong and confident after Justin broke up with her, and she felt like she made an educated decision to get back with him? That’s her business, and it seems like that’s how she explains it to herself, but she’s not coming across like someone who is deeply in love and committed to getting married. She sounds like someone who is trying to figure out what’s going on with her relationship, who realizes she’s settling on some level, and who is taking time to decide if she should get married or not – which is good news, really. Maybe she’ll realize that she needs to pull the plug before she makes it official. What is it that hack Dr. Phil always says, “the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior“? (I googled it, I shouldn’t have put a question mark there.) It’s not like Justin is suddenly going to be faithful once they get married – IF they get married.

I swear that CB & I got a tip about this months ago. Someone wrote in and told us that Gillian Anderson and her longtime partner, Mark Griffiths, had quietly split up. And now here we are – Us Weekly is confirming the news, and they’re making it sound like the split is recent:

Gillian Anderson is sadly adding longtime love Mark Griffiths to her ex files. “Gillian Anderson and her partner Mark Griffiths have amicably separated after six years together,” a rep for the actress, 43, tells Us Weekly exclusively.

The duo, who never wed, share sons Oscar, 5, and Felix, 3.

The X-Files and House of Mirth actress has been married twice before. She and film art director Clyde Kotz, with whom she shares daughter Piper, 17, divorced in 1997; the star and documentarian Julian Ozanne were married for two years before parting ways in 2006.

Following her role as Miss Havisham in a 2011 PBS miniseries adaptation of Great Expectations, Anderson has a full slate of projects in 2012: the films Mr. Morgan’s Last Love, I’ll Follow You Down and The Curse of the Buxom Strumpet, plus BBC miniseries The Fall.

I always forget that Gillian is a mom to THREE kids. I probably forget about her because it’s not like she lives in LA, getting pap’d on the regular. She lives in London, and these days she works a lot in British television productions. Considering we got a tip about this months ago, I’d say that Gillian and Mark probably didn’t split up recently – this has probably been in the works for at least this year – I can’t even see that they’ve been photographed together since last year. As for any potential scandals… who knows? Gillian is a beautiful woman, and I could totally see her having a jumpoff.

Meanwhile, Gillian recently clarified some comments she made to Out Magazine earlier this year. Gillian had told Out, “I was in a relationship with a girl for a long time when I was in high school… If I had thought I was 100% gay, would it have been a different experience for me? Would it have been a bigger deal if shame had been attached to it and all those things that become huge life-altering issues for youngsters in that situation? It’s possible that my attitude around it came, on some level, from knowing that I still liked boys.” Gillian clarified in a recent interview:

She has spoken openly about having lesbian flings as a teenager – but it seems Gillian Anderson is less willing to put a label on her “fluid” sexuality. The twice-married mother of three has revealed that the death of an ex-girlfriend has convinced her of the need for a “more nuanced conversation about sexuality and its fluidity”. The 43-year-old first confessed to having had relationships with women earlier this year.

In an interview this week, the X Files star explained: “I decided to talk about it now because someone with whom I was in a relationship a couple of decades ago – a woman – passed away about a year ago. I was talking about her and, in the context of the gentle conversation we were having, I thought I would say that I have had a couple of relationships with women.”

But she added: “I always knew I still liked boys. Being gay was never something that I identified with 100 percent, because I knew that for me it wasn’t the only way. There are so many teenagers confused about their sexuality, and I’ve been aware of the need for being open about fluid sexuality.”

[From The Independent]

Basically, she clarified it the same way CB said – that Gillian probably sees her sexuality as fluid on a continuum in which some people are neither “100% gay” or “100% straight”. Maybe the scandal is that Gillian left her partner for a woman? We should be so lucky. There are lots and lots of X-Files fan-girls who still have biscuit tingles for Scully.

In October, 2010, Ben Harper filed for divorce from Laura Dern after five years of marriage and two kids together. Then we heard in December, 2010 that they were back together for some reason and trying to make it work, maybe for the kids or maybe because some other impediment to their marriage was no longer around, if you know what I mean. (And I don’t, we’re just assuming cheating by either one of the parties and honestly have no evidence.) Well now they’ve broken up again, which is sad for their kids, who are old enough to know exactly what’s happening. Here’s the story from Life and Style, which spins it like they just couldn’t make it work:

Though Laura Dern, 45, and Ben Harper, 42, decided to give their relationship another go, the pair have split again, Life & Style can reveal.

“They’ve called it quits for the second time,” a friend of Laura’s tells Life & Style. “They came to this conclusion last month. It was handled with the utmost respect and love; there were no crazy fights.”

Ben, who married Laura in 2005 after dating her for five years, filed for divorce in October 2010. But this past February, the couple were spotted together at the Golden Globes and reconciled.

“When they got back together earlier this year, they were happy,” the friend tells Life & Style. “There’s a lot of love there, and they both really wanted it to work, but they just couldn’t work out their differences. They couldn’t meet in the middle.”

The duo have two children together: son Ellery, 10, and daughter Jaya, 7. Ben also has a son and daughter with his first wife, Joanna, whom he divorced in 2001.

“Because of their kids, Laura wanted to handle this politely and with care,” the friend adds. “But I know she’s hurt because she really did love Ben a lot. It’s a sad time for her. She’s been leaning on friends for support. Both she and Ben are good people; there is no bad guy in this picture.”

[From Life & Style]

As for Harper’s first wife, the story goes that she was pregnant and still very much with Ben when Laura hooked up with him and got pregnant too. Plus Laura allegedly got together with her previous boyfriend, Billy Bob Thornton, when he was with his fourth wife. (Then Billy Bob famously dumped her by taking up with Angelina Jolie. Dern said of the end of their relationship that “I left our home to work on a movie, and while I was away, my boyfriend got married, and I’ve never heard from him again.”) So I guess it’s safe to say that she’s been on both sides of the equation, and I’m wondering which side it is now.

Oh and I just want to add that I recently saw season one of “Enlightened” on HBO. Dern won a Golden Globe for her lead role, and she really deserved it in my opinion. She’s a damn good actress, although at times that show gets so ridiculous it’s hard to watch. I love her mom, Diane Ladd, on it too.

When Elizabeth Edwards died in December, 2010, her oldest daughter, Cate, was 28 and a Harvard Law school graduate. She also had daughter Emma, then 12, and son Jack, who was 10 at the time. So two of her children were still quite young and she wanted to make sure that they would be well cared for when she died. The Enquirer reported that her will stipulated that “any decisions John makes regarding their younger children must be approved by their daughter Cate.” Elizabeth was reportedly close to Cate, and made sure that her daughter would carry on her wishes after she passed. This included making sure that her husband’s mistress Rielle Hunter and her illegitimate child did not move into the family mansion, that John never married Rielle, and that John’s daughter with Rielle would not inherit any money intended for John and Elizabeth’s children. This part of the Enquirer’s report spells it out, and it’s good:

Elizabeth worked with her lawyers to amend her will to prevent John from pocketing part of the couple’s $53 million fortune if he marries Rielle or lives with her, said the source.

“She also made sure none of the money earmarked for their children ever goes to Rielle’s daughter,” the close source divulged…

“Elizabeth understood John’s responsibility to care for Quinn, but she’s gone to her grave satisfied that the child will never receive any funds intended for their own children,” said the source.

Meanwhile, Elizabeth also ensured that neither John nor Rielle can touch the family’s multi-million-dollar 28,2000-square foot mansion on 102 acres in Chapel Hill, said the source.

“Elizabeth specified that John cannot call off the sale and move in Rielle and their daughter. That house, along with the family’s vacation home on Figure Eight Island, is now off limits to Rielle,” the source revealed.

[From The National Enquirer, print edition, December 27, 2010]

So we know Elizabeth was very concerned about Rielle moving in with John, and that she tried to ensure that John would not give this nasty woman any kind of legitimacy or money beyond monthly child support. That’s why I love this story that Elizabeth’s oldest daughter, Cate, now 30, told her dad to dump Rielle after she came out with that horrible book trashing Elizabeth. As we know, he did dump the bitch. Here’s the story, via Radar:

Cate Edwards pressured her father John to call things off with Rielle Hunter, after the baby mama’s new book disrespected the memory of Cate’s late mother Elizabeth Edwards, calling her “a witch on wheels,” among other things.

Insiders tell the National Enquirer that following the release of the controversial book What Really Happened, Cate “feels she received the ultimate slap in the face after she was by her father’s side for six long weeks during the criminal trial.”

“She’s told pals she’ll be there for her little brother and sister (Jack, 12, and Emma Claire, 14, respectively) but isn’t going to speak to her father unless he breaks it off with Rielle,” insiders tell the National Enquirer.

This is not the first time Cate, 30, has made clear her thoughts of Rielle, as she forbid her father from inviting her to her wedding last fall. (John’s and Rielle’s daughter Frances Quinn was invited, but did not go.)

As previously reported, in Rielle’s new book she expresses little remorse about sleeping with a then-married Edwards, even deducing Elizabeth should have been wise to John’s cheating because of her own desolate bed.

“If you aren’t having sex with your partner,” she explains, “chances are high someone else is.”

[From Radar Online]

John was weak enough to take up with this creature, he probably wouldn’t have dumped her without this ultimatum from his daughter. It’s not like he wasn’t screwing whomever would have him on the side, but in her mind Rielle was the head bitch. The rest of us just know her as a head case.

The only photos we have of Cate are from her wedding day in October, 2011. Her dress and her bridesmaids’ dresses are so pretty! It’s sad that her mother couldn’t have been there. Here’s Rielle at the airport in NY on 6-26-12. I bet that dark-haired woman behind her is the nanny. John Edwards is shown in 2007. Credit: FameFlynet, PRPhotos and Pacific Coast News

Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis are over. Finally. I mean, I’m glad they finally got around to making an official announcement because I’m so tired of typing “allegedly” over and over. This stuff has been going on for the better part of a year, and I believe that Depp was and is in the midst of mid-life crisis, complete with other women and lots of toys and money. So why all the angst and back-and-forth and outright denials? Were they really trying to work it out? Or did one of them (Vanessa?) just not want to let go?

It’s official: Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis have split after 14 years together.

The couple “have amicably separated,” Depp’s publicist said in a statement released to Entertainment Tonight Tuesday. “Please respect their privacy and, more importantly, the privacy of their children.”

As PEOPLE has reported, the two drifted into living separate lives after moving to Los Angeles from France. They haven’t appeared together on a red carpet in a year and, an insider told PEOPLE about their crumbling relationship, “It’s so sad.”

The couple have two children together: Lily-Rose, 13, and Jack, 9.

Depp, 49, and Paradis, 39, first got together in 1998. Their romance began that June, when Depp saw the French actress sitting with a group of friends at the bar of the Costes Hotel in Paris, where he was having dinner with colleagues. Depp had a friend invite her over, and they talked for two hours.

A longtime resident of Plan-de-la-Tour in southern France, Depp recently told French magazine VSD that living in France with Paradis and their kids “has given me everything. A marvelous family and also an equilibrium which I missed enormously.”

And in 2010, Paradis gushed to the U.K. edition of Marie Claire about her man.

“I could make an endless list of all the things I admire about him,” she said. “We understand that, if we want our relationship to continue, we must give each other space, allow each other to go off on our own, and trust each other. Not everyone is lucky enough to be given space and trust.”

In another interview, Paradis explained why the pair never felt the need to marry.

“I love the romance of ‘let’s get married,’ but then, when you have it so perfect … I mean, I’m more married than anybody can be – we have two kids. Maybe one day, but it’s something I can really do without,” Paradis once told Elle.

[From People Magazine]

Well, it should be interesting to see how all of this plays out. What does a single Johnny Depp look like in today’s Hollywood? Are women just going to be throwing themselves at him right and left? Will Johnny remain single for a while or do you think he’ll plunge head-first into another relationship? Ashley Olsen wants to know. As does Amber Heard. And Eva Green. As for Vanessa… I feel bad for her. I feel like she put up with a lot of crap from him in the end. Of course, I also think that Vanessa is going to walk away with a nice, quiet settlement, and she’s going to find someone sexy and French to hang out with next. So maybe Vanessa wins in the end, because she’s not the one having a mid-life crisis in the middle of Hollywood.

Jenny McCarthy was a guest on the Wendy Williams show recently. Their publicist sent us a link to her video interview (above) and I was struck by how botoxed she is. Her face barely moves at all when she talks. I rely on The Soup to keep me up to date with Wendy Williams’ show, but whenever I see it I’m impressed with how much dirt Wendy is able to dig. She asks people the questions directly from the tabloids, and I admire that about her.

When Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy were dating (they lasted five years, from 2005-2010), there was a rumor that Jim gave Jenny $50 million in a trust for her son, Evan. (Again, Evan is not Jim’s biological son at all, he’s from Jenny’s first marriage.) Around the time that they broke up, there was another story that seems to have originated in Star Magazine (I know) that Jim gave Jenny $25 million, $5 million for each year that they were together. On Wendy’s show, Jenny denied that Carrey gave her $50 million or $25 million but she never said outright that he didn’t give her a chunk of money when they broke up. She also complained about how hard it is to be a single mom, and told a dumb story about how she sent a nude photo of herself to her son’s dentist:

On why she’s posing for Playboy again
I was so tired of just seeing the 20 year olds just considered sexy. I was like “Milfs are hot too.”

How she has “working mom syndrome” and it’s been hard on her
Evan is doing amazing. He was undiagnosed from having autism, clinically which is incredible. He’s not the only one, there’s thousands of kids that get better. It was a long journey. He’s the love of my live. I’ve been suffering a lot from working mom syndrome. I’ve probably cried ten times in the past week. I saw a tarot card lady and I was like (fake crying) “I’m a terrible mother.” As a single mom I’m the only breadwinner. I’ve been trying to balance work and being a supermom. It’s been hard on me.

On if Jim Carrey gave her 50 million when they broke up
That’s not true. I’m barely living in a van down by the river. (SNL reference.) I did not get 50 million dollars. I didn’t get 25 million dollars. I went into it going “I’m going in with is mine and his is his” and I’ve always been a really strong independent woman and get back on my feet after being kicked… you know. I’ve done it all on my own. I did not want to participate.

How she texted a nude photo of herself to her son’s dentist
So Evan had this… abscess just sticking out from his gum and I’m like “OMG that’s disgusting.” So I called the dentist… and he’s like “take a picture of it and send it to me…” I sent him a nude by accident. I swear to God. I was like with my boyfriend… Can you imagine? The guy is like 80 years old.

On if she’s planning for another kid
I want to give Evan all my attention, because I am a single mom. I think, this uterus is closed.

On her new boyfriend, Chicago Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher
I wanted to have a macho guy. I was sick of having guys wanting to borrow my makeup.

[Transcribed from The Wendy Williams show, video above]

The part where she bitched about being a single mom really rubbed me the wrong way. I’m sure she’s a hands-on mom and she tries to do a lot for her son, but she’s not earning any fans by complaining about it. The woman is not hurting for money or help at home I’m sure. She tried to make a reference to Chris Farley’s famous SNL bit by claiming that she’s “barely living in a van down by the river,” but give me a break. Also, I don’t mean to split hairs but she never said specifically that Jim Carrey didn’t give her any money. She sounded cagey to me about it. She just said she didn’t get 50 or 25 million and then added that she’s “done it all on my own.” If he didn’t give her something after they split up, why didn’t she say that?

Also, I hope she made up that ridiculous story about texting a nude photo of herself to her son’s elderly dentist. That’s just dumb.

I always go back and forth on Zac Efron’s sexuality. On one side, I know that the gays want to claim him as one of their own, come hell or high water. I’ve heard the rumors, of course, and I think there’s an air of “Tom Cruise”-ishness about him, as in Team Efron is always trying too hard to convince everyone that Zac is super-straight, which makes me think the opposite. On the other side, I sometimes wonder if Zac isn’t just a really nice kid – he’s not out there being a cracked-out mess, you never hear about him acting like a douche to ladies, and by most accounts, everyone does think he’s a sweet, decent guy. He’s even spoken about how he’s more of a relationship kind of guy – gay or straight, I don’t think he’s into random hookups. He likes a commitment. I think – I hope – that if he was gay, he would simply come out and BE gay. But who knows?

Anyway, I had forgotten that Zac and Lily Collins were an item, but they were. When she was promoting Mirror Mirror (that poor girl), there were lots of reports about her and Zac. Alas, they’re now over. *sob*

Zac Efron and Lily Collins’ spring fling is over. After just three months together, The Lucky One actor, 24, and the Mirror Mirror actress, 23, have split, multiple insiders confirm to Us Weekly exclusively.

“They’re no longer together. They were never serious, though; it was just a casual thing and it fizzled,” one insider explains. “They were never in the same place at the same time.”

A second source adds: “Zac was never very serious about her. He didn’t talk about her to friends.”

The stars were first spotted holding hands during a friend’s birthday dinner at L.A. eatery STK February 8. After that, the low-key stars — who have been photographed together only once — only grew further apart.

“It’s true that their schedules are crazy right now, which isn’t conducive to a relationship being easy,” a pal tells Us.

Prior to his relationship with Collins, Efron was in a longterm relationship with his High School Musical costar Vanessa Hudgens, 23. Collins and her Abduction costar Taylor Lautner, 20, ended their courtship in September 2011.

See, the fact that Lily went from “dating” Taylor Lautner (another Tom Cruise-type – and I don’t mean that in a good way) to “dating” Zac Efron makes me wonder. I wonder if Lily is just like Taylor Swift used to be – up for any publicity-friendly setups by her managerial team. Lily has that forver-girlishness thing too, just like Swifty. Why aren’t Swifty and Lily friends? I would imagine they could out cutesy each other all day long. Where was I? Oh, right… Zac and Lily are over. Poor them. Oh well. They’ll find their soul mates somewhere…hopefully they won’t both fall for the same dude.
