Kim & Reggie

What’s wrong with Hollywood? Is it some kind of separation ailment I haven’t heard of before?

Curvaceous socialite Kim Kardashian and her New Orleans Saints’ star boyfriend Reggie Bush have called it quits due to “conflicting schedules.”

And no, there was no cheating.

Nobody cheated,” Us Weekly quoted a source as saying. “This is just a case of conflicting schedules and their lives going in different directions. It was a totally mutual decision.”

The news of the break up is shocking cause everyone was waiting for wedding bells for the couple who have been together since April 2007. Two years is hellova lot for Hollywood, guys!

The former couple’s friends told People Kim and Reggie still love each other but they never see each other due to busy schedules.

They were the cutest couple. They loved each other so much but they hardly saw each other. He starts his football training camp this week and she starts filming Keeping Up with the Kardashians this week. They just need a break right now.”

Your thoughts, are Kim and Reggie better off alone?

Men’s Fashion

If you’re like most guys you probably don’t care about fashion. I remember thinking (and I still see this mirrored in other friends’ psyche and behavior), screw fashion, screw clothes, screw my hair, I am proud of me, who I am, as I am. Although this thinking can be looked at in a good way – self-confidence, and high self-esteem – are valuable things, I think this type of thinking in specific is often rooted somewhere else – in fear.
