Over before it even began! Frankly, we never saw too much love between these two -- it looked like a relationship of convenience for Lady Gaga with fiance Christian Carino. Now reports say the talent agent was spotted with another women at a West Hollywood hotspot this past weekend, holding hands and appearing to be on a romantic date.
Well that wasn't our first clue these two were over with -- Gaga ditched her man AND her ring at the Grammy Awards the previous weekend and the singer posted pix with her manager on Valentine's Day with no mention of her man.
So back to Christian's date this weekend -- a source told Radar: "Christian was sitting in the Sunset Tower restaurant on Friday night with a pretty brunette. They were holding hands and it looked like a romantic date."
The outlet says Carino's rep didn't respond to a request for a statement ... since when does a rep have rep?! We're gonna try to catch up with Gaga and ask her ourselves ... Stay tuned!

If you've got it, flaunt it! That's Kim Kardashian's motto and you best believe she's got it!
Kimmy donned a 1998 archive Thierry Mugler dress for the Hollywood Beauty Awards Sunday night and she was worried she might not have gotten quite enough attention for her look on the red carpet of the little-known awards presentation so she and her makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic hit up West Hollywood hotspot Craig's to see and be seen by the ever-present paparazzi outside the restaurant.
Kim's cleavage was caged in by the strappy, skin-revealing, sexy number and frankly, if I pay $75 for a filet mignon and an iceburg lettuce salad, I don't wanna look at that while I digest my dinner!

Angelina Jolie is just like us! NOT!
The down-to-earth star -- a UNHCR ambassador who just returned from a trip to Bangladesh where she visited Rohingya refugees from Myanmar -- took her 15-year-old son Pax shopping on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills on Saturday and bought him a $900 YSL sweatshirt!
She's allowed to indulge, of course --she's super rich and what's one more hype beast rich kid teenager in LA -- they're a dime a dozen here.
Jolie wore a $3000 Dior trench coat for the shopping trip which started at the more practical Urban Outfitters and ended up in LA's Golden Triangle where the most expensive boutiques in the city reside. And clearly Pax is no stranger to luxe labels -- he was already sporting a Givenchy sweatshirt which retails for $600 ... a bargain compared to the Saint Laurent!
So what's all the hype about a bunch of cotton with a logo on it? Ask Pax!

This is painful to report - it seems Empire actor Jussie Smollett orchestrated a fake attack on himself last month in Chicago and then drew attention to himself as the victim.
Police sources tell CNN the two suspects were released after questioning yesterday because the two brothers provided evidence they were hired by Smollett. Smollett told authorities he was attacked by two men who were "yelling out racial and homophobic slurs." He said one attacker put a rope around his neck and poured an unknown chemical substance on him.
Meanwhile, Smollett is denying he set up the attack; his attorneys released a statement saying Jussie is upset by the accusations: "As a victim of a hate crime who has cooperated with the police investigation, Jussie Smollett is angered and devastated by recent reports that the perpetrators are individuals he is familiar with. He has now been further victimized by claims attributed to these alleged perpetrators that Jussie played a role in his own attack. Nothing is further from the truth and anyone claiming otherwise is lying."
The statement goes on to say Smollett will continue cooperating with authorities to find the perpetrators: "At the present time, Jussie and his attorneys have no inclination to respond to 'unnamed' sources inside of the investigation, but will continue discussions through official channels."
Khloe Kardashian spent Valentine's Day Instagraming quotes about lost love and we're sad for her ...
But she's done what every sad, scorned woman does -- she CHOPPED her hair off! Not Britney level, just a cute bob -- and she says ten months after giving birth to daughter True, she's got her mojo back. Good for her! And perhaps it's not so much postpartum wonkiness that got her -- it was probably baby daddy Tristan Thompson who got her off her game.
Khloe gave it the ol' college try by moving out to Cleveland to live with Tristan and True after he apologized for cheating on her while she was lying in the hospital about to give birth but really? Yeah, it didn't work and we're not surprised.
So now Khlo's back in Calabasas where she belongs and living her best life with True ... without a man. But there must have been something particularly definitive about the past week, as Khloe seems to have only recently fully made up her mind NOT to continue giving Tristan second, third and fourth chances but to finally be done with him. And she's sad ... but determined.
Khloe posted a tone of meme quotes on her Instagram story Feb. 14th and while they're sad, there's also a glimmer of strength and positivity when looking toward the future so we know she'll come out the other side. And maybe, just maybe, if she stops dating professional athletes, she'll find her Prince Charming!

Kourtney must be breathing a sigh of relief!
Sofia Richie has been dating Scott Disick for almost two years now, but don't count on seeing her make an appearance on Keeping Up with the Kardashians when it premieres its new season on March 31st.
"Not that I’m against it, [but] I’m just very private,†she told Us Weekly about her decision to not be on camera.
The Lord is totally cool with her decision, too.
"Everyone has their own choices and nobody should have to do anything they don’t want to do … It’s her choice," he added.
So what does LD love so much about his lady?
"She does seem to calm me down. So I take that as a blessing. She’s extremely, extremely generous and extremely thoughtful," he gushed.
We have a feeling an engagement is coming in 2019!

He's hanging up his bat suit!
Ben Affleck spent his Valentine's Day sitting down with Jimmy Kimmel for an interview, and the actor talked all about his exit from the Batman franchise.
“I tried to direct a version of it and worked with a really good screenwriter but just couldn’t come up with a version — I couldn’t crack it and so I thought it’s time for someone else to take a shot at it. They got some really good people so I’m excited," he told the late night host.
In other news, the Boston hunk and his ex Lindsay Shookus are reportedly talking again, and it sounds like it won't be long before they're back together.
"They've known each other for years and there have been other periods of time where they didn't speak. But they always seem to end up talking again," a source dished to E! News.
The SNL producer might have to wait a while for things to get romantic again, though, because part of the Oscar winner's sobriety includes a year long period of celibacy to work through his issues.
"[Ben] is taking a year off from dating which includes no sex. No romantic entanglement means no distractions. It’s tough, but Ben knows he needs to focus on his mental state and physical health right now,†an insider told Life & Style.
We're just happy he's on a better path following a rough couple of months.
Kanye is known for pulling off over-the-top romantic gestures for wife Kim, and for Valentine's Day, he decided he'd hire Kenny G to play the sax in their rose covered living room. We have a feeling Kimmy K would prefer diamonds or a designer handbag as a gift, but he just keeps getting her orchestras and musicians!
The funniest part? The Internet is trolling the couple, saying they've trapped Kenny G in their mansion because they created a flower maze on the floor he couldn't possible get out of. Hilarious!
At least 'Ye put in more effort than Tristan Thompson, who just sent Khloe a big heart shaped bouquet of flowers. Speaking of which, we thought they broke up? We're so confused.
"They are still together. Tristan is on the road and in Cleveland and Khloe's in L.A. most of the time. She is focused on True and her work. She's all about True and being a good mom," a source dished to E! News.
"She's consumed with True and head-over-heels in love with her. When it comes to Tristan, she chooses not to worry about it or to classify their relationship anymore. She is very happy with things the way they are and feels very fulfilled. She doesn't need to think about what's up with Tristan or what he's doing out on the road like she used to," the source added.
It's hard to keep up with the K clan's love lives!
