Ouch!!! This must’ve hurt…

You’ve heard of dumping by text message. Some people even like to do their dirty work via voicemail. But Kill Bill star Vivica A. Fox was dumped in a truly humiliating way last week — by press release.

The actress’s club promoter boyfriend Slimm released a notice announcing that they were “no longer dating ,” to numerous media outlets, without telling her.

The actress — 46 — has been dating Slimm, a co-founder of Atlanta, Georgia-based Plush Blue Entertainment, since January, but the romance has frizzled in recent months, prompting the lanky ATLien to publicly declare that he and Vivica were no longer a couple in an email to the press.

“Hey this is Slimm, unfortunately me  and Vivica are no longer dating. After eight months, it’s time to go our separate ways,” he wrote in a statement released last Wednesday. “In life you can love and have chemistry with a person, but flaws can sometimes outweigh the relationship. Hey this is Slimm,unfortunately me and Vivica are no longer dating. I wish her the best and I know she feels the same. Thanks.”

Slimm — who at 26 is 20 years Vi’s junior — appeared to have had a change of heart just a day later. and followed up on his earlier statement with another media release, in which he apologized for “overreacting instead of letting time take its course.”

“I want to clear the air about the rushed statement released yesterday about Vivica and I breaking up. Sometimes a person may act out of anger. Vivica is an important part of my life and I would never try to hurt her. Thanks for supporting us as we figure things out.”

Fox has brushed off the controversy, insisting it was just one of the “ups and downs” of their relationship.

In her own email to The New York Daily News, Vivica wrote: “Slimm and I r fine! All relationships have their ups and their downs. I’m soo proud that Slimm was man enough to clear up the air. He is a very good man with a great heart!”

This is what happens when you date someone young enough to be your son!!!

The love affair between Halle Berry and her babydaddy is no more.

The Canadian model has confirmed that he and the Oscar-winning screen stunner have called time on their four and a half year romance after reports about the split hit the blogosphere on Friday.

In a statement released to Access Hollywood through his Wilihemina Modeling Agency, Gabriel insists the breakup is amicable, although he is believed to have ended the relationship with the Monster’s Ball actress because they spent so much time apart.

Since the couple split a few months ago, Gabriel, 34, and Oscar winning actress Halle have been working to resolve their finances and make arrangements for their two-year-old daughter, Nahla.

“We have been blessed with the most amazing daughter in the world, and her happiness and well-being are the most important thing for both of us. Please respect our privacy during this very difficult time….”

Russell Simmons and his young model girlfriend Porschla Coleman are no longer a couple:

Russell Simmons and Porschla Coleman will always have yoga, but they may not always have each other. In between deep breaths and green vegetable smoothies, the couple, who had been dating since last year, found time to frequent beaches and then move in together, but it’s time for Russell to Do Him! According to sources, Simmons recently called it splitsville, with a send off note in his Huffington Post blog that ran last Thursday. In his note, he congratulated Porschla for her recent certification in Jivamukti Yoga and gave her what reads like a glowing review before closing with “thank you for the inspiration.” The only thing left for him to say may have been, God Bless and Good Night!

Aww too bad. Maybe Russ will find someone his age this time. Eish!!!.
