Contrary to an earlier story that George Clooney dumped Sarah Larson over her insistence on getting new boobs, the National Enquirer claims that it was Clooney who footed the $12,000 bill for Larson’s implants and that he was on board with it. It was only when rumors that Sarah was having a fling with an ex boyfriend in Vegas surfaced that Clooney called it quits, they claim. What’s more is that Clooney bought Larson new teeth last year. Larson’s new boobs are said to be modeled after Gisele Bundchen’s:

[George Clooney] dumped Sarah and booted her from his home after rumors reached him she had a fling in Vegas, the Enquirer has learned.

Sexy Sarah was devastated by the abrupt breakup and was particularly shocked, say pals, because it came only days after… Clooney paid nearly $12,000 for her breast augmentation.

“He bought her breast implants - patterned after supermodel Gisele Bundchen’s bust,” revealed a pal.”

“And last year, George paid for Sarah to have her teeth straightened…”

“Once rumors got back to him that Sarah was recently hanging out with an ex boyfriend in Vegas, he asked her to move out of his L.A. home,” said the pal.

“There’s no indication that she was cheating on George, but he wasn’t going to take chances.”

MSat reported a story on Wednesday from In Touch that quoted a supposed insider saying “George really didn’t want her to get the boob job.” Sarah and George supposedly had a fight over her new boobs, with Sarah storming out and finding out through the media that she had been dumped.

I would bet that Clooney was just looking for an excuse as MSat mentioned. You don’t think this girl would cheat on him, but she doesn’t seem like the brightest bulb and could easily fall back into old patterns. She was seen bumping and grinding with her ex at an event after the split.

Whatever happened, Sarah is still trying to get her 15 rapidly-decreasing minutes. She trotted along Robertson Boulevard on Wednesday with a trail of paparazzi following her.

Both the National Enquirer and Star Magazine have stories this week that 29 year-old Sarah Larson is telling friends that she’s the one who broke it off with Oscar-winning actor George Clooney, not the other way around. Earlier stories had Clooney, 47, surprising Larson with the split, leaving her heartbroken as she packed up her stuff and moved out of his LA mansion and back to Vegas.

Now Larson supposedly claims that she got sick of Clooney’s on-again off-again affections and that she’s the one who chose to end it. As if that sounds believable:

“She’s claiming that she broke up with him because his love was so inconsistent,” says one source. “She said he was hot and cold with her, and she just couldn’t tolerate it anymore.”

But it seems former Fear Factor winner Sarah, 29, may just be trying to put out her own version of the story because, according to multiple other sources, George dumped her.

“She tends to get too attached to her boyfriends,” says a play of Sarah. “She was getting too clingy, and George just had enough. She was demanding too much attention, and it was driving him away. They had been on the rocks since April, and this was just the final straw for George.”

[From Star Magazine, print edition, June 16, 2008]

The National Enquirer has a similar quote from maybe the same insider who claims that Clooney was “hot and cold” with Sarah and she got fed up with it.

Star reports that Clooney has been holding up in Lake Como since the news of the split broke, but that’s probably where he spends his summers anyway. Larson made a smiling public appearance at the opening of the Palms Place on May 31. She was seen flirting and sitting next to an ex boyfriend, Ryan Doherty. The two did some dirty dancing that night, according to an insider quoted in the National Enquirer, who calls it “over the top” and “obvious.” They also say that Sarah is “crushed” and that losing Clooney is the “last thing [she] wanted.”

She’ll get over it and move on. There may not be another A-List star willing to take her to the Oscars again, but there are plenty of fish in the muddy Hollywood lake, and she’s young, pretty, rich and now semi-famous. You can’t buy the kind of exposure this woman got from dating Clooney.

You may not have heard of 29-year-old British actress Rosamund Pike, best known for playing villainess Bond Girl Miranda Frost in Die Another Day, but the way her engagement to Atonement director Joe Wright ended is an interesting one. Supposedly Pike sent out hundreds of cheesy wedding invitations to friends and family that featured a photo of her and Wright in a hot tub. She had never asked Wright, 36, for his approval for the invitations and he was livid and called off the wedding and their relationship. She was left to cancel the florists, caterers, and venue and to explain to guests that the wedding wasn’t happening. This version of the story has their wedding being canceled just a few days before it was to be held, but an update from the same author says it was planned for September:

The 29-year-old star was due to marry last month [sic: update from same source says their wedding was to be in September] but the wedding was called off at the last minute after Miss Pike told friends she couldn’t go through with it.

According to friends, the actress is devastated about the split and cancellation.

Wright, 35, proposed on the shores of Lake Como in northern Italy earlier this year and the wedding was to have taken place in England last weekend. [Again, update says wedding is in September]

My source says: ‘It’s not common knowledge and only a few people know. Rosamund obviously wants to keep it as private as possible but she is devastated. She’s a lovely girl and we all feel very sorry for her.

‘She was meant to be out at a party on Thursday night but she cancelled at the last minute. She just couldn’t face going out.’

Rosamund’s mother, who had been planning the wedding, has been consoling her daughter and cancelling florists and cake orders.

Meanwhile, Wright has been hitting the London party scene. ‘Joe was out four weeks ago at a party. He was surrounded by girls and ended up taking a group of them to a strip club. He’s a regular there and all the dancers know him,’ says my scantily clad spy.

[From The Daily Mail]

That was the first version which had the bride calling it off, but an update from The Daily Mail is much more juicy:

I have further revelations following my report last week that the wedding between actress Rosamund Pike and her film director fiance Joe Wright had been suddenly called off.

It appears that Wright put an end to the September nuptials after 29-year-old former Bond girl Ros sent out hundreds of wedding invitations without his approval.

‘The invitations featured a picture of them together in a hot tub,’ says a pal.

‘Joe dumped her for sending them without consulting him and she had to tell all the guests the wedding was off.’

To add insult to injury, Wright was then spotted cavorting with a handful of girls at his local lap-dancing club in Shoreditch just days later. Charming.

[From The Daily Mail]

It’s unclear from these two reports whether their wedding was to take place in September or if it was canceled just a few days before, as the first report suggests. It sounds like the September wedding story is more accurate. This was probably just the straw that made their already tenuous relationship collapse, and Wright was likely just looking for an excuse. It does seem tasteless to send out wedding invitations with a hot tub photo on them, but it’s something you could laugh over if you were committed enough to the relationship and didn’t take yourself too seriously. I bet she invited a bunch of extra people and was planning a super lavish wedding that the groom wasn’t on board with either. Remember when Affleck and J.Lo canceled their wedding at the last minute, citing media pressure? Better to waste the money on a canceled reception than pay for an expensive divorce.

Here are Joe Wright and Rosamund Pike. They met when he was directing her as Jane Bennett in Pride and Prejudice in 2005. They are shown on 12/22/07 shopping, at the Atonement Premiere on 12/6/07, and at a BAFTA after party on 2/10/08. Thanks to WENN.

Reese Witherspoon moved on with the hot and hairy Jake Gyllenhaal long ago. Now, Ryan Phillippe is coming out of the straight closet with his new lady love.

“After months of speculation about their relationship, he proudly accompanied his Stop-Loss costar Abbie Cornish to the 2008 Australian in Film Breakthrough Awards – their first major event as a couple.”

[People]

Abbie Cornish was “the other woman” that has been rumored to be at the center of the downfall of power couple Ryan and Reese. Sources saw the two kissing and sharing intimate moments at a Japanese restaurant while Philippe was still married to Witherspoon. Divorce followed and soon after denial and defense was Ryan’s strategy when it came to interviews.

Photos of the two kissing and sharing a cigarette spoke volumes to the contrary. Cornish is already rumored to be pregnant with Ryan’s love child. She failed to show up to several premieres and the only recent photo shows her sitting down in some hideous black jacket. Perhaps this is the reason for their first public outing.

Now Ryan and Abbie have made their debut. Fellow guests described them as “adorable” and stated that he had his arm around her and appeared “cozy” and “comfortable.” He also let her enjoy the bulk of the attention. While she worked the room, Ryan stood back and took his usual position as supporting actor.

Gee, it is not like we didn’t know that he was shoplifting some Cornish this entire time. No matter, I still say that it is completely unfair that Reese has gotten to nail two of the men on my “Celebs I Want to Make Sweet, Sweet Love To” list.

After a feeble attempt to quash breakup rumors by going on in an interview about how great her relationship with Rhys is and how they love to stay home and eat together, Sienna Miller is said to have broke up with the homely actor over the phone.

Supposedly Rhys Ifans, 39, was jealous of Sienna’s ex boyfriend, coincidentally named Matthew Rhys, The new Rhys’ obsessive behavior and mistrust of Sienna’s relationship with the old Rhys is said to have driven her away. The 26 year-old actress called Ifans on the set of his film and told him it’s over:

The blonde Alfie star broke the bad news to Welshman Ifans in a tearful phone call last weekend.

She blamed her decision on their long-distance relationship, during which Ifans became suspicious that she had rekindled her romance with Matthew.

But Sienna, 26, insists she and her ex are just good friends — even though she has seen a lot more of Matthew during her regular trips to LA in recent months.

Heartbroken Rhys, 39, received the bad news on the Bristol set of his new film The Boat That Rocked.

A source said: “Sienna broke the news at the weekend in a call from Prague.

“Things have been awkward for a while after she caught Rhys going through her text messages.

“She went bananas and Rhys said he was looking for what he called ‘incriminating evidence’. He has been giving her a hard time lately, questioning her commitment to him and the time she puts into the relationship.

[From The Sun]

This is why many actresses are guarded and choose to only give general comments about their relationships or not talk about them at all. It’s foolish to go on about the private details of your life that may change at any time. It does get you on the cover of magazines, though.

Alanis Morissette has been getting a bit of extra attention lately, mostly focused on her ‘pregnancy’ and her ex-fiancé getting engaged. She also has a new album out, which is shaping up to be pretty good.

On Ryan Reynolds and Scarlett Johansson’s engagement:

Reynolds began dating Johansson last year (07) just months after he ended his four year relationship with the Canadian singer.

But single Morissette insists she isn’t jealous or resentful, telling Entertainment Weekly, “On a certain spiritual level, I feel like everyone’s where they need to be.”

And the star vows never to play out another relationship in the public eye: “Public romance. I’m going to be avoiding that in the future. I think the only time I’ll talk about any guy I’m with will be when I’m married with six kids.”

Contact Music

I think this is her way of saying “butt out of my personal life,” but in the politest possible way ever. Something I just love about Alanis is that while she can be really angry and crazy in her music, she’s not an angry or crazy person. I’m looking at you, Courtney Love.

A couple of weeks ago she also had this to say about her break up with Ryan Reynolds.

“Every time I go through something difficult, I think, `This is the motherload. I’m not going to get through this one.’ And then, six months later, I’m like, `What’s his name again?’”

Contact Music

Good advice for anyone going through a break-up, particularly one that leaves you sobbing on the floor inhaling chocolate.

Her album, Flavors of Entaglement, has been getting good reviews, although it is full of break-up songs. Rolling Stone describes the new album as “heartfelt” and that it features “electro beats, Eastern percussion, [and] orchestral arrangements.”

Alanis is shown performing in Las Vegas on 3/18/08, thanks to WENN.

More details have come out about the George Clooney and Sarah Larson split, and they’re not flattering to horse teeth Clooney. The 47 year-old perpetual bachelor may have been willing to squire Larson around to events for a few months, even bringing her as his smiling silent date to the Oscars, but he certainly wasn’t going to marry her and it sounds like he didn’t even want to get her hopes up.

An insider tells Fox News that 39 29 year-old Sarah thought that Clooney was going to propose, despite all his public statements to the contrary, but that he broke it off with her all of a sudden and that she had no idea it was coming. She had to pack up her shit from his LA home and move back to Las Vegas, which was where she was living and working as a high-paid cocktail waitress and hostess when she met Clooney:

“She thought they were getting married. Instead, she got dumped,” a friend said. “She’s really upset. Devastated.”

Larson found herself teary-eyed, packing her bags and walking out the door of the home the couple had shared in Los Angeles.

Friends said the 29-year-old fled to Las Vegas, where she was working at a nightclub in the Palms Casino Hotel before Clooney swept her off her feet one year ago.

The pretty brunette, a former “Fear Factor” reality show contestant, is already back with her old crowd. Larson made her first public appearance since the breakup on Saturday at the Palms Place Hotel & Spa’s grand opening party.

As things got serious with Clooney, Larson had moved into his Los Angeles mansion, subletting her home in Las Vegas. Tongues wagged that she might be “the one” when he took her to the Oscars this year.

Less than a month ago, the couple were in New York celebrating the actor’s 47th birthday. They were taking it slow, but they were planning to eventually wed, they told friends at the time.

“She’s totally heartbroken and doesn’t deserve this,” a friend said. “It came out of nowhere. They had made all these plans.”

[From FOX News via The Huffington Post]

The June Harper’s Bazaar interview with Larson might have pushed Clooney over the precipitous ledge he’s been on as an older, famous childless man who can have any woman he wants. Larson talked about how she met Clooney in the interview, called her appearance at the Oscars with him “like a modeling job - smiling and greeting people,” and said she used to make $1,000 a night as a cocktail waitress in Vegas. She claims she has no ambitions to act, but with the type of money she was making she could easily go back into hostess work or whatever she was doing.

I bet Larson would never have lasted as long as she did with Clooney or even been granted arm candy status if she didn’t get into that motorcycle accident with him last September. That event may have made Clooney settle down temporarily, but he didn’t change into a man ready for a long term commitment overnight.

If you want to judge if a guy could be in it for the long haul, just look at his past relationships. If all he has in his recent past is a string of short term girlfriends, you’re bound to be one too. I know I’ve been fooled by charm and influence too, and you learn and move on. At least Sarah has some fabulous couture and jewelry to take away with her.

Sarah Larson is shown in her first outing as a single girl post Clooney at the Palms Place Hotel and Spa on 5/31/08, and with Clooney at the Leatherheads premiere on 3/31/08, thanks to PRPhotos.

In a story that I expected to hear months ago, an insider tells In Touch that George Clooney broke up with his much-younger cocktail waitress girlfriend, Sarah Larson. This news comes a little over two weeks after an interview with “It Girl” Larson was published in Harper’s Bazaar. The 29 year-old Fear Factor winner dished on how she met George, called him “funny and sweet” and said she wanted to get him to wear designer jeans and style his hair in a fauxhawk. The interview came off as lame and bland to me, but maybe I was taking it out of context.

The last time these two were seen out at an event was at the Fashion Institute Gala in New York on May 5. Sarah held her head up high while she posed with George, who seemed to only have eyes for Julia Roberts, who looked serene.

Supposedly George arranged to be out of the house while he had Sarah move her stuff out. It sounds like he let her down easy:

George Clooney has broken up with Sarah Larson after nearly a year of dating. According to a friend of Sarah’s, the Leatherheads star recently moved out of his LA home while the 29-year-old former Las Vegas cocktail waitress removed her belongings. “George is relieved to be single again,” says an insider. “He thinks Sarah is sweet and that is why it was so hard to break up with her.” As In Touch previously reported, George, 47, and Sarah struggled to make their relationship work because of their different backgrounds. “The truth is that they had little in common and he just doesn’t want to be tied down,” explains the insider. George’s rep told In Touch: “I can only confirm that we have never commented on George’s personal life.”

[From In Touch]

In Touch says they’ve been dating for almost a year after getting reacquainted at the Oceans 13 premiere after party, where Larson was working. George and Sarah got into an accident on his motorcycle in late September last year, with some eyewitnesses claiming he told Sarah he loved her in the moments after the crash when she was lying on the ground. Sarah hobbled away from the accident with a broken toe and Clooney’s renewed affections, which predictably waned down the line. There’s likely little she could have done to keep Clooney’s interest. His relationships in recent years have been notoriously short-lived.

When Tony Romo went to lunch at a paparazzi hot spot with Jessica Simpson on the Friday before her sister’s wedding, I assumed he was trying to help her save face after the news broke that he dumped her. Then when Romo went to Jessica’s sister Ashlee’s wedding as Jessica’s date, again it seemed like he felt sorry for Jessica and wanted to soften the blow of the breakup. Maybe they have an on-off thing, but the insider reports of their breakup were reported in the Chicago Sun Times and seemed true.

So why would Tony make a public reconciliation with Jessica Simpson before her sister’s wedding other than feeling sorry for her? Maybe because if he stayed away from the wedding, it would have cost Jessica’s family $1.4 million. TMZ reports that People Magazine’s contract with Joe Simpson for exclusive rights to Ashlee Simpson’s wedding photos included the stipulation that Tony Romo had to be at the wedding with Ashlee’s older sister Jessica:

Our moles tell us, when People cut a $1.4 deal for Ashlee’s wedding pics, there was a g-string attached — that Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo would be there.

It’s kinda what we were thinking. Who’d pay that for Ashlee Simpson alone. That’s why People wanted to put a pic of Jessica and Tony as an inset on the cover — they sell, Ashlee doesn’t.

Of course, the problem. Jessica and Tony split before the wedding. So you getting the picture why Tony showed? $$$$

[From TMZ]

Maybe that explains why People claimed ahead of the wedding to have a “source” that Tony Romo would attend. There must have been a lot of pressure on that guy to show up, and he swallowed his pride and did a nice thing for Jessica’s family. I guess that explains why he didn’t go on vacation with Jessica and her family afterwards.

But isn’t it a little sad for Ashlee, that - as commenter Elisha points out - she had “to have her wedding cover of People ruined with a huge picture of her sister freak dancing on it”?

The National Enquirer has an exclusive story that Jodie Foster’s 14 year relationship with Cydney Bernard ended after Jodie started cheating with a woman she met on a movie set last year. Jodie and Cydney have two children together, sons aged 6 and 9, and they’re still living together at this point, but Jodie is about to move out:

Jodie Foster cheated on her lesbian partner of 14 years with a younger, prettier woman who is now her new girlfriend!

The ENQUIRER has learned exclusively that the Oscar winner’s new love is brunette Cindy Mort, a producer and screenwriter she met on the set of her 2007 film The Brave One.

The 47-year-old star’s new squeeze is the former partner of thirtysomething actress Melanie Mahron — with whom she has two children!

Meanwhile, 55-year-old Cydney Bernard is still living with Jodie but their romance is over, say sources.

Jodie has never publicly identified the father of her 6- and 9-year-old sons, Charles and Kit.

” Although she and Cydney remain under the same roof at the moment,” a close pal told The ENQUIRER, “the relationship has been shattered.”

[From The National Enquirer's website]

This is the second 14 year relationship that was publicly pronounced over this week due to cheating with a co-worker.

People Magazine has more details of the Shania Twain split, probably leaked by Shania’s camp, and Shania says that the secretary her husband cheated on her with was “one of her best friends,” and that “their two families would vacation and spend holidays together.” Can you imagine?

Hopefully the woman Jodie Foster cheated on her longterm partner with wasn’t someone they knew together, but that must not soften the blow for Cydney. Maybe this story is inaccurate though and they were already separated but living together when Jodie met someone else. It doesn’t sound like that’s the case, but you never know what’s going on in someone else’s home. Right now we’re relying on tabloid reports, and no one is likely to confirm or deny anything. Jodie only acknowledged she even had a partner about five months ago.
