It appears that Shannon Elizabeth and Derek Hough will be dancing no more. The actress and the star of Dancing With the Stars have broken off their relationship of over a year. The couple met when Shannon was a contestant on Dancing With the Stars. The couple announced their split via Twitter. They posted simultaneous messages that read, "Hi everyone, we wanted you all to know directly from us, that Shannon & I have decided to end our relationship as boyfriend & girlfriend.... However, we love and care about each other very much and will remain friends and in each others lives." Apparently breaking up via Twitter is the cool thing to do now!

One couple that will not be breaking up hopefully anytime soon is the newly married Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan. The couple recently married on July 11 in Malibu and had to cut their honeymoon short as they both got food poisoning while in Bali. So, what was the first thing they did when they felt better? "We got tattoos!" Dewan tells US magazine. "They say 'side by side,'" she added.

Paul Abdul recently announced that she would not be returning to American Idol as one of the judges for the ninth season. That may not prevent you from seeing her on television though. According to Paula she has been getting plenty of job offers, which include the television show So You Think You Can Dance. Paula had this to say about the show, "I am not going to rule that out. I'm a dancer, a choreographer. Dance is a love of mine. But I have yet to sit down and discuss anything with anyone. It's all happening within the next couple of weeks." One thing is for sure, though, Fox Entertainment believes that Paula is replaceable as they are currently looking to hire a fourth judge for the show. American Idol has already announced celebrity guest judges such as Victoria Beckham and Katy Perry.

It appears that color is the fashion trend for celebrities and their award shows. Celebrities have been hitting the red carpet, wearing all kinds of different colors. They seem to be kicking off the spring season with fresh blooms of color.

The Golden Globe Awards was full of color as celebrities stepped out on the red carpet. In fact, red was a popular color with celebrities like Eva Longoria Parker, Kyra Sedgwick and Julia Ormond. Other colors that dominated at the Golden Globes were the arrays of the color blue. Jennifer Morrison, Mary Louise-Parker, January Jones, Anne Hathaway and Blake Lively all wore gowns that were shades of blue.

Color ran rampant at the Grammy Awards, which are known for being a little formal. For the Grammy's, it appeared that multi-colored and patterned frocks were in. Rihanna, LeAnn Rimes and Paris Hilton all wore dresses that were multi-colored. While other celebrities such as Katy Perry and LeToya Luckett chose shades of pink for the red carpet.

The colors galore continued into Oscar night. It seemed once again red was a very popular color for the event. Amy Adams, Guliana Rancic, Heidi Klum and Virginia Madsen all donned red gowns for the event. Another popular color at the Oscars was purple, which was worn by Lisa Rinna, Alicia Keys and Natalie Portman.

Wearing color is the easiest celebrity fashion trend to follow. You may be following it right now and may not even realize it. Simply add some color into your wardrobe with shades of blue, red, purple, green and pink. Try to stay away from wearing all neutral colors like white, black, cream, tan and brown. You can even go a little more daring and try a multi-colored top like this one from Just Cavalli. This celebrity fashion trend is full of endless possibilities.

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about *Gossip Girls*' Kelly Rutherford being pregnant with her second child. Well, it seems like she will be raising her two kids as a divorced mom. Kelly filed for divorce this past week from her husband, Daniel Giersch, according to TMZ.com. The couple has been married for two years and has a two-year-old son and another child due in summer. Of course, like any other celebrity divorce, the reason is "irreconcilable differences." Kelly's previous marriage only lasted 5 months. In my opinion, maybe she needs to try a little bit harder at marriage, especially considering she has two kids to think about now.

Another couple that has also called it quits on their relationship is singer Katy Perry and Travis McCoy of Gym Class Heroes. The couple dated for approximately a year. According to a source, the couple has been fighting, and Katy was going on tour and needed to concentrate on her music. If you have ever seen a picture of Travis McCoy, you know that Katy Perry is way too pretty to be dating someone like him. It's good that they broke up, now she can find a guy that doesn't look he just got off the streets.

Instead of being charged with a DUI, Heather Locklear pleaded no contest to a lesser charge of reckless driving. If you remember, back in September, Locklear was pulled over and charged with a DUI after someone called 911 on her. Those charges have been dismissed as part of a plea deal for the lesser charge. As part of the deal, Locklear will receive three years of probation, was fined $700 and ordered to complete a driving safety class. I would say she got off pretty easy on this one!
