Eva and Tony: dunzo

Eva Longoria and Tony Parker have ended their relationship, according to a friend of the couple. "They did break up. It's amicable," the source told People mag. "They are talking and trying to figure the best course of action for their future. They are trying to work things out. It's distance and demanding careers and not living in the same city. It didn't happen yesterday. It's been going on for a while." In a statement issued earlier yesterday, a rep for the Desperate Housewives actress said, "Eva and Tony are going through a very difficult time right now, just like any other couple with extremely demanding careers."

More bad press for Lindsay

Lindsay Lohan has yet to acknowledge the chauffeur who found and returned her lost Hermes bag at Heathrow last month. The driver was promised a reward or thank-you note from the actress by her rep after he turned over the bag - the contents of which were reportedly worth about a million dollars - but has yet to hear from the star. "They haven't gotten back to me," the chauffeur told PageSix.com. "Not a word. She seems like a nice girl and she was pleased to get the bag back - it was full of diamonds and bracelets and necklaces. But it's really disappointing. I'd like to hear from her with maybe just a 'thanks very much.' Her people took my address and phone number and said they'd be in touch. I know these stars need a good looking-after, but she could have easily just spoke to me on the phone."

Madonna's big bucks

Madonna has broken the Guiness World Record as the highest paid female singer in the world, after earning $50 million in 2004. The 2007 edition of the Guiness book names Nicole Kidman as having the highest salary per minute for an actor after the Oscar-winner made $3.71 million for a four-minute Chanel ad, and Oprah Winfrey as the highest-paid person on TV. Janet Jackson tops the list of the world's most-searched for female on the Internet while Brad Pitt was the most searched-for male.
