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.

American Idol judge Paula Abdul is hinting that this may be her last season as her contract will be up. So, does she think that the new judge Kara DioGuardi could replace her? Paula told ABC'S News Nightline that she didn't think that anybody could replace her. She also said that Kara tells her, "I could never replace you." She also goes on to say that she "loves the show," but it may be time for change. Abdul also says that she does get along with Kara and that there is absolutely no tension between Kara and her. I am actually wondering how much longer American Idol can survive, not just because Paula may be leaving, but it has been on for so many years and has run its course with not much left to do.

The Kardashians don't seem to be going away anytime soon. It was just announced that Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian are getting their own reality series on E! They can currently be seen on Keeping Up With the Kardashians while their new show Kourtney and Khloe in Miami will premiere in August 2009. The show will follow the sisters as they travel to Miami to open up another Dash boutique. Apparently the two try to focus on business but easily get sucked into the party life of South Beach. I'm not sure who told E! to make another reality series with the Kardashians, but one was really more than enough.

Could another walk down the aisle be coming soon for actress *Reese Witherspoon*? A source tells US that Reese and her boyfriend of two years Jake Gyllenhaal have never been happier. Jake made a toast to his girlfriend at the birthday party he threw for her saying, "she meant everything to him." An insider also goes on to tell US that "all of Reese's friends tell her they think he's The One. It's not a matter of if, but when. And when Jake asks, she will definitely say yes." Jake and Reese appear to be a down to earth couple who have found true love.

Terrence Howard is releasing his debut album this fall - it's said to be a mix of pop-rock and jazz tunes. It kind of makes you wonder what an Oscar-nominated actor is doing attempting to break into the music biz. I mean, we all know how well it worked out for Woody Allen 's muse, Scarlett Johanssen, right?

Mario Lopez and Karina Smirnoff broke up a couple weeks ago, but the real reason for the break-up is just coming to light now. Yes, there was cheating involved, but it wasn't the Dancing with the Star pro that cheated. Believe it or not, it was actually Mario Lopez and it was with a Hooters waitress! Apparently he and Miss Hooters (Meagan Cooper) have been sneaking around for a whole year. What a pig! IF he was going to cheat, he could've at least done it with someone a little more A-list... like long-time friend Eva Longoria.

One of Denise Richards' frenemies has come forward claiming that Denise has been outright lying when she says that her and *Heather Locklear*'s friendship had ended long before she hooked up with Richie Sambora. This "friend" has phone records that prove that Richards was calling Richie while she and Heather were still friends.

American Idol judge Paula Abdul is single once again. She had been dating restaurateur J.T. Torregiani, but apparently they split months ago. He must've caught an episode of "Hey Paula!" on Bravo one night. That'd be enough to send any guy running for the hills.

Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale are expecting baby #2. They don't even know the sex of the baby yet, but they do know this - they're having a goth baby. So what better color for the nursery than black? At least that's what Rossdale said during a recent interview on E! Let's hope he just has a really weird sense of humor.

And it looks like Nicole Ritchie and Joel Madden may not be heading down the aisle just yet. What's the hold up? Well, according to the Enquirer, Joel is waiting for Nicole to covert to Christianity before they marry so they can raise baby Harlow with the same Christian beliefs that he grew up with. Somebody needs to tell Joel that knocking your girlfriend up before marriage isn't exactly encouraged by Christianity either.
