FROM J.YES TO J. NO
It's officially over and we feel bad for the Lo. As per the requests of Beantown Ben she tried to keep her glossy mouth shut so that they could avoid the media scrutiny that so plagued their nuptials. As you may recall it was Ben that kept talking about how Jen was bad for his career and that the media has ruined it for them (sure it wasn't your film choices and lack of talent?). Who can this woman get with?
On another note, we're happy to see a new face on the cover of US, that annulment was getting too much play. But, just a few weeks back Ben was praising Britney for taking the heat off of his relationship with Jen and was even quoted as saying, "Britney, yeah, I'm going to send her a check. I can't tell you how pleased I was -- it was finally the big one that's pushed [J. Lo and me] off [the headlines]. Which is really nice -- nice for me. Poor thing." Back to square one.
PS: Look for a reunion when Jersey Girl is released then a huge blowup when the thing tanks
Breaking up is hard to do

REAL EXERCISE, REAL PEOPLE, REAL CLOTHES, REALLY FUNNY
Who said dressing for success is limited to the working world? Everyone knows that new sports gear (the more professional looking, the better) is essential whenever ambitious new year's resolutions get made. Since all of us at Splendora joined the same gym and it just opened on Monday we paid a little visit to Niketown this week and created a fashion show of our fabulous finds. Missing in these photos is our favorite discovery, a deliciously soft yoga cowl neck sweater in black that could easily go from workout to night out. Our prediction is that several of the chic pieces from the Nike Goddess line (like the sweater and the black bicycle top) are going to start creeping into everyday fashion. Stay tuned for other health kick updates that will include a Lo-Carb taste test in the Splendora conference room.

SWAG HAPPY AT SUNDANCE
SUNDANCE 2004: Guess who was taking tons of cashmere sweaters, demanding free ski gear, loading up on lingerie, swiping jars of Kiehl's cream, getting Magic Tanned and downing cases of Red Bull in Park City? Paris Hilton? Think again, it's the other (more motherly) media snogger Demi Moore. She and her hot piece of Ash have been tooling around Sundance in a loaned Escalade outfitted with TiVo. All Kutcher had to say was "I want this car" and it was arranged to be waiting for him upon his return to LA. Allegedly they made massive demands pre-Sundance and had local yea-sayers running around like mad. Other swag seekers included Paris Hilton who went AWOL in her borrowed Mercedes as well as Christina Applegate who was seen toting a 40 inch plasma.
