Sideshow: J.Lo and Casper - together again, never truly apart
J.Lo and Casper fake-out! Jennifer Lopez and Casper Smart broke up last June. Except they didn't. Or they did, says TMZ, but just as a business move. Both were doing flicks (she: Boy Next Door; he: Street) and felt they'd be a sexier sell as "singles." Such moves have a long history in Hollyvoid, where stars pretend to be likin' or not likin' - heck, they'll be moss, if it'll sell tix.

So, c'mon, it has to be, like, totally true. . . . Rumor Mill Grinding, #44,214: Once they said Blake Shelton was steppin' out on Miranda Lambert; now it's vice-versa.
And: Just try not to laugh at this Foxnews.com headline (we couldn't keep the giggles at bay): "Britney Spears is learning pre-algebra to keep up with her sons." . . . Sam Taylor-Johnson, director of Fifty Shades of Grey, says she won't direct any sequels. . . . Most Twitter feuds are as empty as balloons. Example: The Twit-tiff between Kylie Jenner and Blac Chyna over KJ's alleged dalliance with BC's partner in procreation, Tyga. Shade-throwing, y'all!
Last lap: Betty White tells Oprah Winfrey her biggest regret in her 93 years is that she waited a year to say "Yes" to a proposal by Allen Ludden.

A Quiz." Clues such as: "He doesn't tip. And he never brings his wallet anywhere." She's now being called anti-Semitic. Ironic, since she's matrilineally Jewish.
