If Hugh Hefner is still hurting from his breakup with fiancee Crystal Harris, he sure isn’t showing it. People reports that a week after the split, the 85-year-old Playboy founder has already moved onto a new bunny: Anna Sophia Berglund. Hefner tweeted, “With Crystal gone, Anna is my best girl… Anna is really one in a million.” When asked if the new couple is official, Hefner’s ex, Crystal Harris, tweeted, “Nope! She’s just over there regulating, making sure Hef ends up w a good girl.”

As we all saw last night on The Bachelorette, it was an emotional evening for Ashley. She put a “period” on her “dot dot dot” relationship with Bentley and had to confess her secret meeting (and feelings) for the bad boy to the remaining bachelors. Here’s what our resident Bachelorette expert Jesse Csincsak had to say about the episode:
We’ve been waiting for Bentley to return for weeks. When Ashley spoke with him in Hong Kong, were you surprised by anything he said to her?
Bentley is so used to talking to girls until they are totally confused, and then they just do exactly what he wants. Nothing Bentley said to Ashley last night made any sense!
We all know Bentley was never truly interested in Ashley. So why do you think he kept saying things like if things didn’t work out with her and the guys, she had the option of looking him up in Salt Lake City?
He figured worst case scenario, “we can hook up”! That’s it.

Single ladies around the world can now rejoice! George Clooney has officially separated from his latest girlfriend, Elisabetta Canalis.
The couple has called off their relationship, leaving the dating pool wide open for Clooney, one of Hollywood’s most attractive men. If you’ve got your eye on this “sexiest man alive,” you’re not alone. But do you have what it takes to attract this notorious bachelor? Here are the top 10 qualities he looks for in a woman. See if you measure up!
1. Foreign beauty: If you’re from a country outside of the U.S., your odds of landing Clooney have significantly gone up. Celine Balitran (France), Mariella Frostup (Norway) and Canalis (Italy) are just a few of his “foreign affairs.”
2. Big name actress: One of the most successful men in Hollywood would surely be attracted to an equally successful actress. And rightfully so, since both understand the demands and stresses that come with the job. Clooney’s past women have resumes almost as impressive as his; just take a look at Julia Roberts, Charlize Theron, Kelly Preston and Renee Zellwegger. But don’t plan on starring in a movie alongside George to win his affection. It appears he doesn’t date his co-stars – at least, not during filming.

After Ashley Hebert’s confession to host Chris Harrison last week in Thailand and sneak peeks from ABC, it was no surprise that this week’s drama would center around Bentley Williams. Before the dates could start in Hong Kong, our bachelorette was treated to a private meeting with the bad boy. In the privacy of Williams’s hotel room, the pair had an honest conversation about Hebert’s feelings about their “dot dot dot” romance. After the villain said, “I feel like where you’re at in this process and journey, we should call it a period,” the bachelorette finally seemed to see his true colors. As she walked away from his room, she called him a “player” and shared that she felt “liberated” to move forward in her relationships and love with the remaining bachelors. With that chaos in the past, this week’s reality TV episode would feature two one-on-one dates as well as a group date. …Want to know more? Click here!

Larry Crowne (Tom Hanks) did what most people to do when trying to improve their lives from the ground-up … he went to college. Crowne was laid off from his big-box company, a job he had since he left the military. Now with bills to pay and lots of free time, he decides to enroll in classes at his local community college. While there, he befriends a group of scooter-riding outcasts who, like Crowne, are trying to better their positions in life. Meanwhile, he falls for his public speaking teacher, Mercedes Tainot (Julia Roberts), who has lost her passion for her marriage, career and everything else. Larry Crowne helps show the life of students in community college and the rising population of non-traditional college students. Plus, it shows that when someone’s lost everything, he or she may just find a new purpose.

I said, ‘What are you. . . ?’ And then I went, ‘You know what? I love you too much, I’m going to give it to you. You deserve it.'”
