Cameron Diaz and Sean "Diddy" Combs:
Dang – we didn’t see this one coming! Us Weekly is reporting that since her breakup with A-Rod, Diaz has been hooking up again with her old flame P Diddy. Apparently they have been booty call buddies since 2008. Wonder how his model girlfriend of three years, Cassie feels about this!
Heather Locklear and Jack Wagner:
Say it isn’t so! The “Melrose Place” co-stars have confirmed that they have called off their engagement. We had high hopes for Amanda and Dr. Burns – how could they do this to us?
George Clooney and Stacy Keibler:
As hard as we try not to get too attached to Clooney and his flavor of the month, we gotta admit, we’ve got it bad for him and Keibler as a couple. The duo showed some serious PDA at the Beverly Hills premiere of “The Descendants,” AND she met the ‘rents. Please don’t break up, please don’t break up, please don’t break up.
Jennifer Lopez and Casper Smart:
Who? Yea, we said the same thing. Jennifer Lopez is allegedly involved with a 24-year-old backup dancer named Casper Smart. Didn’t she learn anything from Demi and Ashton?

Scarlett Johansson and Joseph Gordon-Levitt:
Us Magazine just reported that the two actors were spotted
making out recently in New York. ScarJo has been doing ok for herself! Since her split with Ryan Reynolds, she’s been linked to big names like
Sean Penn and Bradley Cooper.
Speaking of Bradley Cooper…
Things between our secret boyfriend Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lopez are heating up. The hot couple went on a dinner date in New York last month and they were reportedly spotted out together again a few days ago when a photo surfaced of Cooper in an SUV with a woman who looked remarkably like J.Lo (she was unsuccessfully attempting to cover her face).
And speaking of Ryan Reynolds…
First, our other secret boyfriend was
linked to Charlize Theron and now he’s allegedly dating Blake Lively (who is fresh off her breakup with Leonardo DiCaprio). Meh. We liked him better with Charlize Theron.
George Clooney and Stacy Keibler:
Rumors started swirling about them over the summer and now
George Clooney and Stacy Keibler are going strong and stepping out in public together. Clooney brought Keibler to the screening of his latest film, "The Descendants," over the weekend, where the couple walked hand-in-hand down the red carpet together. Awww.

Daniel Radcliffe and Bonnie Wright may have stirred up a little romance onscreen in the last two Harry Potter movies, but offscreen there was an entirely different scenario happening. Wright, who played Ginny Weasley, got engaged to her other Harry Potter co-star, Jamie Campbell Bower (seen in this photo). If you missed this swoon-worthy actor as Gellert Grindelwald in these wizard flicks, don’t worry you can see him light up the silver screen in “Anonymous,” a movie that asks the question “Was Shakespeare a fraud?” It’s out in theaters on November 4. Campbell Bower will be playing the dashing Earl of Oxford, who woos a young Queen Elizabeth I (Joely Richardson). Gauging by this picture, the two seem to have some serious chemistry in front of the cameras. But this actor (and the rest of this film’s all-star cast) is only one reason to see
“Anonymous” ...
If you ask Nick Verreos, the beloved
“Project Runway” designer from Season 2, about what he’ll be keeping an eye out for in this movie, he’ll say it’s the fabulous fashions. There were 20 handmade costumes for an older Queen Elizabeth alone.
Check out Verreos’ take as he judges these spectacular Shakespearean styles from “Anonymous” as only a “Project Runway” designer could!

Nude photos of Scarlett Johansson may have just hit the web.
The actress appears to be the latest victim of a cell phone hacker ring thought to be responsible for stealing nude photos and videos from at least 50 female celebrities, including,
Demi Lovato, Jessica Alba,
Vanessa Hudgens, Miley Cyrus and Christina Aguilera.
Here’s what we don’t understand – after SO many scandals involving naked pics have broken, why do people keep taking them?
And while we shouldn’t be wondering this but at least we are admitting it, were ScarJo’s photos meant for Ryan Reynolds or for Sean Penn?

Some of
Hollywood’s most beloved couples are the hopeful, happy pairings that we’ve been rooting for all along see: Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. Others are head scratchers of an entirely different genre see Sandra Bullock and Jesse James, pre-Oscars 2010. This weekend brought with it a little from Column A, a little from Column B “huh?!” and “hurray!” along with us, Limelighters!
Hot on the Louboutin heels of her split with hubby Marc Anthony,
Jennifer Lopez was spotted sharing a romantic meal with
actor Bradley Cooper. This surprising (also see: WTF) couple snuggled up for a two-hour dinner date Saturday at NYC hotspot Per Se. Bradley was most recently linked to actress Renee Zellweger who he parted ways with back in March after dating for two years.
Love hasn’t always come easy for
Lady Gaga, who famously said: "Some women choose to follow men, and some women choose to follow their dreams. If you're wondering which way to go, remember that your career will never wake up and tell you that it doesn't love you anymore."
But things in the romance department may be looking up for the Lady, who is rumored to be hooking up with her incredibly hot “You And I” music video costar Taylor Kinney. The actor has appeared on “The Vampire Diaries” and will be starring in the Lifetime original movie event “Five” (
get more info on the movie here!)
Which new celebrity couple do you think will go the distance?

With her fit physique and frequent sneaker-clad appearances running through the various “Slim Stars Secrets” or “Stars: Just Like Us” sections of many a mag, it’s no secret that 35-year-old
Reese Witherspoon stays in shape by running! Unfortunately, the actress took the wrong route yesterday and was struck by a car while out for a jog.
Local news outlets reported that Reese was jogging in the northbound lane of Georgina Avenue in Santa Monica yesterday, when a driver, later identified as an 84-year-old woman, coming down 20th street hit the star. The driver was later cited for failing to yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk.
Reese was taken to a nearby hospital and checked for minor injuries, but thankfully soon released. Her reps reported to People, that she is now “resting comfortably at home.” Hopefully,
new hubby, agent Jim Toth is taking good care of her while she recups!
What freak celebrity accident has had you stunned?

Eddie Murphy has been hired to host the 84th Annual Academy Awards in February.
James Franco and Anne Hathaway didn’t exactly win rave reviews as
last year’s hosts, so this unexpected opportunity for the comedian could end up being exactly what the Oscars needs.
"Eddie is a comedic genius, one of the greatest and most influential live performers ever," telecast producer Brett Ratner says. "I know he will bring excitement, spontaneity and tremendous heart to the show.”
Murphy, who earned an Oscar nomination in 2006 for his supporting role in “Dreamgirls”, has never hosted the Academy Awards before.
"I am enormously honored to join the great list of past Academy Award hosts from [Bob] Hope and [Johnny] Carson to [Billy] Crystal, [Steve] Martin and [Whoopi] Goldberg, among others," Murphy told Us Weekly in a statement.
Tell us, what do you guys think?

Here at Celebrity Limelight, we love to celebrate baby bumps (all hail Babyonce!) and costar canoodling (yay Ryan and Sandra secret getaways!). Wedding bells (mazel tov to Kris and Kim!), records broken (get ‘em, Weezy!), romantic reunions (JT & Jessica [sexy]back together?!) all that stuff is great! We steer clear from indulging in schadenfreude, but we can’t control the behavior of our shining stars any more than we can pull Mercury out of retrograde. With that being said, today we bring you this week’s celebrity slip-ups from the mundane to the “never work in this town again.”
Be still your beating-and-Beliebing hearts! Last night, the greatest talent of our lifetime was in a car accident. While driving in Los Angeles, CA, Justin Bieber was rear-ended. Thankfully, both the other driver and the boy wonder are okay with barely a scratch to Justin’s Ferrari. There was a passenger in his car, but LAPD officers have confirmed that it was not girlfriend Selena Gomez.
Matthew Fox finds himself in a much messier situation this week, as the “Lost” star was arrested for allegedly assaulting a party bus driver. In “you can’t make this stuff up” news, Fox was at a Cleveland, Ohio, nightclub early Sunday morning when he spotted a party bus… and decided to get on sans invite.
When the bus driver, 29-year-old Heather Bormann told him he had to get off, Fox (who appeared to be drunk) became violent Bormann says. She was photographed with bruises on her legs and arms that she claims he inflicted on her and the driver even suffered a wrist injury from punching him out of self defense. Fox and his rep have yet to release a statement about the incident.
Is word of Matthew Fox’s assault charges the strangest celebrity news you’ve heard in a while? Do you like hearing the happy or the crazy when it comes to star gossip?

Yesterday’s 2011 MTV Video Music Awards may have seemed a little tired (Really, Katie Holmes? I think we can all agree that Suri is more hip and relevant than her mama these days…) but here's how the stars really ranked on Sunday regardless of moonman totals at night's end.
Winner: Beyonce's Unborn
Beyonce stole the show during the pre-show, when she walked the black carpet and posed, showing off her baby bump. The soon-to-be mama didn’t stop there. She performed “Love on Top” after saying to the audience: “I want you to feel the love that's growing inside of me.“
Unborn Beyonce Child’s other parent surprised the VMA bunch with an electric Watch the Throne performance of “Otis” with Kanye West (fingers crossed for godfather status). This only further cemented his/her future as the son/daughter of one of the hottest couples on the planet.
Winner: Selena Gomez's Career
We hate to give credit where it’s not due, but the former Disney princess got the opportunity to put her big girl shoes on at the VMAs, first as a black carpet correspondent, then up in the front next to super famous boyfriend Justin Bieber and onstage alongside super famous ex-boyfriend Taylor Lautner. She (and her agent/publicist) sure knows how to pick ‘em! And with commercials for her Kmart clothing line airing every break, the stealth Selena’s stock is certainly on the rise.
Neutral: Lady Gaga
Mama Monster started the show in drag as her alter ego Jo Calderone, and kept at it the entire time even hitting on tribute recipient Britney Spears as Jo. While some skeptics had their brows raised, her faithful fans applauded her art as always, leaving Gaga safely in the same spot she was before her stunt.
Loser: Bieber & Britney
The two share this losing spot because we all had the same reaction to seeing them at the show… and not on stage. When there’s so much fanfare around a performer, we want to see them actually perform, not just sit pretty. Even if they are that pretty.
Loser: Rap Street Cred
We love a lil Weezy, but when a finale performance is as censored as Lil Wayne's was last night, the response is more "why bother" than "bravo/encore!" And seeing Odd Future's Tyler, The Creator joking around on stage with an unfunny, past-his-prime Jack Black pretty much killed his bad boy image. But congrats on that moonman! It doesn't get more mainstream than that...
