WHAT’S UP WITH KAIA AND PRESLEY GERBER? ANYTHING GOOD?

Last night Kaia Gerber celebrated her 21st birthday with a Hollywood party and her brother Presley (above) attended, but we hardly recognized him. The handsome 23 year old model has lost an enormous amount of weight. You can see it even more clearly in other photos (that I couldn’t afford) taken last night. And he’s trying to cover it up by wearing a heavy jacket on a hot night. His gaunt look wasn’t the only unanswered question of the night. Kaia’s boyfriend Austin Butler was nowhere in sight. In fact, they haven’t been photographed together since July. Was Austin STILL busy promoting his Elvis movie? – or is their romance kaput?

THE WOMAN WHO RUINED ROB KARDASHIAN’S LIFE

Yesterday was a REALLY bad day for Rob Kardashian. Singer Rita Ora and New Zealand Actor/Director Taika Waititi announced that they are engaged. Rob carried a torch for Rita for years- in fact their short-lived romance seemed to change his life. Rob was deliriously happy back in 2012 when he and Rita (only 20 at the time) dated for a few lively months. Rob was very sociable  in those days- appearing on the family TV series and working on his sock business. Rita broke his heart when she dumped him and never looked back. He accused her of cheating with 20 other guys and made it clear he was devastated. After that, he half-heartedly dated a few women, but nothing serious until Blac Chyna snapped him up. He admits his life was a mess and he was vulnerable in those days. Since then he turned into a recluse, and he’s the only Kardashian we never see.

LORI HARVEY AND MICHAEL B JORDAN : BREAKING UP IS HARD TO DO

Just when Steve Harvey thought his daughter Lori Harvey had settled down with “a nice guy” Michael B Jordan, things fell apart and the couple split. Steve clearly remembers Lori’s LAST boyfriend Future (he has 8 kids with 8 different women) and he was happy and relieved when she took up with Black Panther star Michael, who has never had a playboy reputation. Instagram model Lori, 25, and Micheal, 34, seemed to be dizzily in love for almost a year and a half- they were the perfect couple. For the past 6 months Lori has been dieting (1200 calories a day) and working out and she has lost over fifteen pounds. She has never looked better. All signs are pointing to the fact that Lori is the one who called the romance off – was he pushing for marriage too soon? No one knows. Both claim to be heartbroken, but one is certainly MORE heartbroken than the other…

MADONNA: NEW FACE, NEW BOYFRIEND

While we were obsessing over The Slap and Johnny Depp’s courtroom drama, Madonna, 63, was quietly breaking up with her boyfriend of four years, dancer Ahlamalik Williams, 28. They first met during her Rebel Heart tour in 2015 and got together in 2018. He has been conspicuously absent from her social media for the past few months. She recently posted a vague commentary about Karma mentioning “when somebody in your life is not right for you…” Apparently their isolation during the pandemic did NOT bring them closer together. Williams has packed up his stuff and moved out of her New York home.

SELMA BLAIR: A RESTRAINING ORDER? REALLY?

How quickly this relationship degenerated from playful and fun to a restraining order! Selma Blair and her boyfriend Ron Carlson have been very public with their relationship for YEARS – granted, it’s been off and on, but he stuck by her through her devastating MS diagnosis and subsequent adjustments. Recently Selma acquired her new service dog Scout who responds to her every need – could he have contributed to this disastrous split? It’s definitely a “He Said She Said” situation with both Selma and Ron charging the other with violence and denying their own. It’s a sad way to break up….

ANOTHER MODERN AND SENSIBLE SPLIT: JASON MOMOA AND LISA BONET

You have to appreciate the delicate way that Jason Momoa announced that he and Lisa Bonet are splitting up. He said their love carries on, but they plan to “free each other.” After 16 years and two children, they are going their separate ways. We remember seeing Jason, Lisa, and her mother at the Rose Bowl flea market early in their relationship. Suddenly we were shoulder to shoulder with one of the most drop-dead gorgeous men we had ever seen and he was SO big we had to BACK UP to take it all in! In those days Jason had no facial hair. The threesome seemed to be having a good time together browsing through the vintage collectibles. It will certainly be interesting to see who Jason and Lisa end up with…

JACOB ELORDI’S GIRLFRIENDS MADE HIM FAMOUS

No one really noticed Netflix leading man Jacob Elordi, 24, until he started dating his leading ladies. The Australian actor noted for his height (6’5”) just split up with his girlfriend of one year Kaia Gerber (5’9”). Photos of the cute couple made him a familiar face. Keep in mind, he dated his first costar Joey King (The Kissing Booth) for a year until he started seeing his next costar Zendaya (Euphoria). Last year he moved on to Cindy Crawford’s daughter Kaia Gerber, and his dating life has put him ON THE MAP. We’re guessing he’ll turn on the charm for his NEXT leading lady…

J.LO AND ALEX SPLIT: REAL ESTATE TELLS THE STORY

SOMETHING has been going on between Jennifer Lopez and her fiancee Alex Rodriguez for more than a few months. They were happy as clams last August when the couple paid 32.5 million dollars for a 14,000 sq ft Miami mansion with 10 bedrooms and 12 bathrooms. And their blended family of four kids (two each) were thrilled also. The children have grown up with each other for the past four years. Unfortunately, in August, the deal fell thru and the house went to someone else. Why did they change their minds? It’s possible that coronavirus isolation contributed the the demise of this fairy-tale romance. Certainly the children are heartbroken- they are going to miss all that fun in the sun together…

WHO FEELS WORSE: BRIAN AUSTIN GREEN OR JASON SUDEIKIS?

It’s NOT easy to decide which jilted man is more distraught since his woman very publicly left him for another guy: Jason Sudeikis or Brian Austin Green. Besides probably being heartbroken, both Brian and Jason have had to endure their exes praising their new mates to the skies! Certainly Brian flinched when his ex Megan Fox described her new love Machine Gun Kelly as an “achingly beautiful boy” and went on to says he was “unusually handsome, ethereal, dangerous, and a creative genius.” She rated Kelly’s SNL appearance as “The best performance that show has ever seen.” Director Olivia Wilde cannot stop raving about HER new leading man Harry Styles, either – she’s astonished by his lack of sexism and praised him for his lack of ego in playing a supporting role in a female led film. She said “He blew us away with his talent and warmth.” Both women seem to be revealing what was LACKING in their previous partners. Ouch, that must hurt.

WE SAW IT FIRST: BEN AFFLECK AND ANA DE ARMAS SPLIT

Readers will recall that we posted this photo of Ana de Armas alone with her dog in New York’s Central Park back in November. The obviously missing element was Ben Affleck. Where WAS he? Ben, 48, and Ana, 32, had been inseparable – quarantining together for most of 2020. They were photographed all summer coming and going from Ben’s home in Brentwood- riding bikes and walking their dogs. Sometimes with Ben’s kids. Both their careers were on hold for the pandemic. When fall arrived, work rules loosened up and opportunities opened up. Ana realized she didn’t want to settle down in California – she had places to go where Ben had already been. Her career is super HOT right now and she needs her freedom. Ben understands and they are both resigned to the inevitable.
