Blake Lively is one of the hottest young bachelorettes around, but in a new interview the actress reveals she’s maintained a pretty tame love life thus far – at least by Hollywood standards.

“I’ve had four boyfriends in my whole life,” Lively says in the March issue of Elle.

She adds, “I’ve never been with anyone that’s not a boyfriend. I didn’t have a boyfriend until I was 17.”

Now 24, Lively has had relationships with her “Gossip Girl” co-star Penn Badgley as well as Leonardo DiCaprio, and is currently seeing Ryan Reynolds.

Still, the actress says she’s not a fan of casual dating.

“I’ve never gone on a date. Maybe I’m too shy,” Lively tells the magazine. “If I’ve ever had a man in my life, it’s because I know him well, and he really means something to me. I don’t take that stuff lightly.”

“I’d rather be by myself than be spending any time or energy on somebody that I didn’t feel sure about,” she explains.

The 84th Annual Academy Awards nominations drew a few surprises this year, and always, a great many snubs.

Here’s a list of some noteworthy oversights.

Michael Fassbender was royally snubbed for Shame, the harrowing Steve McQueen drama where he played a sex addict alongside Carey Mulligan, who was also overlooked for her role as his addled younger sister.

Leonardo DiCaprio received no recognition for J. Edgar, which was hyped to be a major Oscar contender all season long.

For the second year in a row, Ryan Gosling was snubbed in the Best Actor category. Last year, he was overlooked for Blue Valentine; this year for Drive.

Gosling’s Drive co-star Albert Brooks was similarly shut out of the Best Supporting Actor race. After the nominations were announced, he tweeted, “To the Academy: ‘You don’t like me. You really don’t like me.’”

Tilda Swinton was left out of the Best Actress race for We Need to Talk About Kevin.

Will Reiser‘s autobiographical 50/50 was overlooked in the Best Original Screenplay category.

Golden Globes winner The Adventures of Tintin, was completely shut out of the Best Animated Feature category.

Tate Taylor was unexpectedly left out of the Best Director category for The Help, as was Steven Spielberg for War Horse.

Who else do you think got snubbed? And which oversight irks you most?

1. Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries

After just 72 days of marriage, Kardashian filed for divorce from Humphries. The move resulted in a massive public backlash against the Kardashian brand, with many speculating the whole marriage was a money-making farce. In the end, it seems the couple was just ill-matched and rushed into things.

2. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver

Shriver filed for divorce from her husband of 25 years after learning he had fathered a child out of wedlock with their housekeeper thirteen years ago. The couple has managed to maintain a friendship despite the scandal.

Moore attempted to reconcile with Kutcher after he allegedly cheated on her the night of their sixth wedding anniversary, but in the end, she could not forgive him for the betrayal and humiliation.

7. Derek Jeter and Minka Kelly

The actress and the Yankees slugger have remained friends since their August split.

8. Jesse James and Kat Von D

“Blake Lively is keeping her eyes — and options — wide open in her relationship with Ryan Reynolds,” begins a piece in In Touch.

According to the tab, Lively still has “lingering feelings” for Leonardo DiCaprio, and “the more she’s gotten to know [Reynolds], the more she misses Leo — and his A-list lifestyle.”

“While Ryan and Blake recently took a train from Boston to New York,” writes In Touch, DiCaprio “whisked her around the world on private jets and took her on luxurious shopping sprees.”

The mag then quotes a so-called “insider” as saying, “She likes dating a high-profile guy and everything that comes with it.”

Meanwhile, In Touch says, “Leo still likes Blake” and “would be open to taking her back.”

Neverthless, the mag says the “opportunistic Gossip Girl star” is keeping “DiCaprio on ice in case her relationship with Ryan Reynolds goes bust.”

Wait.

Lively has “lingering feelings” for DiCaprio, and the Titanic star “still likes Blake,” but she’ll only go back to him if her supposedly loveless relationship with Reynolds “goes bust”?

Not only is the In Touch story illogical, but it’s also completely fabricated.

A rep for Lively tells Gossip Cop the article is “absolutely not true,” and says the mag “made up” the entire premise.

Leonardo DiCaprio is “heartsick and lonely after dumping girlfriend Blake Lively,” writes the National Enquirer, which quotes a so-called “source” as saying he’s been telling pals, “I made a huge mistake.”

The “source” then supposedly blabs, “Leo ended their five-month fling when he told Blake he just didn’t have time in his life for serious romance, so she moved on — quickly falling in love with Ryan Reynolds. But now, after being inundated with photos and reports about his old flame and her new flame, Leo’s jealous and wants Blake back.”

Stop.

That quote above is completely manufactured. No real person says would such use fake phrases as “Leo ended their five-month fling” or “so she moved on — quickly falling in love with Ryan Reynolds.”

Anyway, the tabloid goes on to claim, “DiCaprio’s texting and phoning nonstop with reconciliation pleas,” but Lively told him, “We’re not getting back together. I’m very happy right now, and I hope you’ll find someone great… just as I have!”

Yeah, more made-up quotes.

Still, Gossip Cop reached out, and even Lively’s rep confirmed, “It’s not true,” and that they “haven’t had any contact for months.”

We’d say, “Shame on you” to the Enquirer, but working at the tab is probably shameful enough already.

As expected, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 dominated the box office.

The movie debuted to $72 million on Friday, the second-biggest single-day opening in history, and has taken in $139.5 million in the U.S. for the weekend.

That total includes the $30.25 million “midnight” screenings haul Breaking Dawn earned before dawn broke.

Internationally, the film has topped $144 million for a combined $283.5 million.

This is already quite a coup, considering Gossip Cop sources tell us the film’s budget was $110 million.

Coming in a distant second this weekend was Happy Feet Two with $21.8 million.

Nabbing third was Immortals with $12.5 million in ticket sales.

Jack and Jill and Puss in Boots secured fourth and fifth places with $12.3 million and $10.9 million, respectively.

Rounding out the Top 10 were Tower Heist ($7.2 million), Leonardo DiCaprio‘s J. Edgar ($6.6 million), A Very Harold and Kumar 3D Christmas ($3.2 million), In Time ($2 million), and George Clooney drama The Descendants ($1.1 million in limited release).

“Leonardo & Cameron FLIRT ALERT!” reads a headline from Star, which goes on to claim that Leonardo DiCaprio and Cameron Diaz are “quietly having a fun fling.”

The mag says DiCaprio “set off major sparks” with Diaz at the LACMA Art + Film Gala in L.A. on November 5, prompting witnesses at the museum event to suspect there was something romantic going on between them.

According to one so-called “source” at the party, “Every time Leo was pulled away to talk to someone else, he’d keep his eye on her.”

“Cam even blew him a kiss!” adds the “insider.”

How scandalous!

But don’t expect these two to come out as a couple anytime soon, warns Star, which explains the former Gangs of New York co-stars have a “no strings attached” type of arrangement.

OR…

There’s just NOTHING going on between them.

Nabbing a close third was a Puss in Boots with $25.5 million.

The second and third slots may change as more numbers come in.

Fourth and fifth places go to Tower Heist and the new Leonardo DiCaprio release, J. Edgar, with $13.2 million and $11.5, respectively.

Rounding out the Top 10 were A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas ($5.9 million), Justin Timberlake‘s In Time ($4.2 million), Paranormal Activity 3 ($3.6 million), Footloose ($2.7 million), and Real Steel ($2 million).

Even though “Blake Lively may be hot and heavy with new man Ryan Reynolds,” writes Star, the “Gossip Girl” actress is “still in touch with her ex Leonardo DiCaprio.”

According to the tab, Lively and DiCaprio “talk on the phone and e-mail regularly.”

“Blake is still carrying a torch for Leo,” claims a Star source, who adds, “She’d drop Ryan in a heartbeat if and when Leo said, ‘Let’s get back together.’”

“Ryan’s bound to get his heart broken!” warns the tab.

No, but Star is bound to get busted for this bogus tale.

Ryan Reynolds spent his 35th birthday weekend with rumored new love Blake Lively.

The pair was photographed leaving Reynolds’ Boston apartment with their dogs in tow on Saturday morning.

Lively and Reynolds also did some celebrating in New York, reportedly hitting up a Burlesque show at The Box with Reynolds’ good friend Sandra Bullock on Thursday.

Lively has traveled to Boston quite frequently since her Green Lantern co-star began filming R.I.P.D. there.

She and Leonardo DiCaprio ended their summer fling earlier this month.

(GQ Australia)

GQ Australia has apologized for a recent Taylor Lautner interview in which the magazine asked whether two gay Hollywood figures had hit on the actor during a recent dinner.

In the original article, the interviewer asked Lautner if either Dustin Lance Black or Gus Van Sant had made a pass at him when they met at a restaurant last summer.

“No, definitely not,” replied Lautner. “I think they know I’m straight. But they’re great guys. They’re a lot of fun.”

On his blog, Black took GQ to task for implying that he and Van Sant would prey on Lautner because of their sexuality, writing, “Above and beyond this clear attack on my character, I’m shocked that GQ would allow their writer to lean on the scurrilous, outdated stereotype that gay men are by nature sexual predators.”

Now, the magazine has issued an apology on its Facebook page.

“We’ve seen some of the comments floating around regarding our recent interview with Taylor Lautner and apologise if anyone was offended by anything in the article,” reads the note.

GQ continues, “It certainly wasn’t our intention to paint anyone in the story as a sexual predator. The point we were actually trying to push was that Taylor is irresistible to virtually everyone – regardless of sexuality or gender.”

“Hence the film crew cheering at his shirtless scenes while shooting Twilight, and Mark Wahlberg deeming him better looking than Leonardo DiCaprio.”

(OK!)

The unintentionally hilarious new OK! cover laments the end of America’s Greatest Fictional Couple.

According to the magazine, Ryan Reynolds has “dumped” Sandra Bullock for Blake Lively, ending “the romantic karma comeback story of the year.”

A so-called “source” claims, “Sandra is crushed. She’s doing her absolute best to hold her head high and act as if she’s not bothered, but the truth is, she’s very hurt.

OK! wonders whether the supposed Bullock-Reynolds relationship “was too good to be true” after his “steamy Boston weekend” with Green Lantern co-star Lively, and the tabloid describes Reynolds allegedly choosing Lively as “another soul-crushing blow” to Bullock.

Well, it was certainly too imaginary to be true!

We know it might crush OK!‘s soul, but, as Gossip Cop has reported ever since silly rumors first surfaced, Bullock and Reynolds never dated.

They. Did. Not. Date.

Period.

Of course, now that Lively is newly single (having just split with Leonardo DiCaprio), she and Reynolds have been the rumor du jour, meaning OK! can use that angle to make Bullock seem like a pathetic sad sack.

Here’s what’s true:

Bullock and Reynolds are former co-stars and friends.

They were never a couple.

A source close to Bullock tells Gossip Cop “it’s all lies.”

Once again, OK! is anything but okay.

“Has Leonardo DiCaprio ALSO Moved On???” asks Perez Hilton, who reported earlier today that the Titanic star’s ex Blake Lively “has already moved on from Leo to Ryan Reynolds!”

According to the bad blogger, “Leo has ALSO moved on with former Australia’s Next Top Model contestant Alyce Crawford.”

He even quotes a so-called “source” as saying, “It’s been going on about two weeks. [DiCaprio] texts her when he wants to see her and they hook up a few times a week.”

Even though Crawford herself says she and DiCaprio are “just friends,” Perez counters, “We’re not buying it! We know Leo’s history with models… Admit it, Leo! Both you and Blake have jumped full speed into reboundlationships!”

How about, admit it, Perez, you know nothing about celebrities.

First, as Gossip Cop reported earlier today, despite Perez’s inaccurate reporting, Lively and Reynolds are NOT dating.

Nor does DiCaprio “hook up” with Crawford.

A close friend of the actor assures Gossip Cop that Perez’s story is “false,” and “just because [DiCaprio] talked to someone doesn’t mean anything.”

Leonardo DiCaprio is set to star in Satori, based on the Don Winslow book about a Westerner trained as an assassin in Japan.

The actor would play Nicholai Hel, whose martial arts skills (and Go-based strategic thinking) help him survive against various espionage agencies and crime groups in post-World War II Southeast Asia.

As it happens, DiCaprio’s gal pal Blake Lively is in the upcoming Savages, also based on a Winslow bestseller.

Kurt Russell will reportedly replace Kevin Costner as one of the bad guys in Django Unchained, Quentin Tarantino‘s star-studded project about a freed slave (Jamie Foxx) coming to rescue his wife from a plantation owner (Leonardo DiCaprio).

Russell’s sadistic character oversees the plantation.

Tarantino vet Samuel L. Jackson is also slated for the movie (as the head slave), and so is the director’s Inglorious Basterds star, Christoph Waltz, who will play the bounty hunter who teams up with Foxx.

Russell’s previous movie role was as the lead in Tarantino’s Grindhouse half, “Death Proof.”

Production on Django Unchained is slated to start next month.

Leonardo DiCaprio is such a convincing actor, he can make people think he’s a jewel thief even when he’s not trying.

The owner of a Sydney jewelry shop claims his sales assistant mistook DiCaprio for a robber during a confusing – but amusing – moment earlier this week.

Two of the actor’s burly bodyguards approached the store and kept watch, making the suspicious clerk fear they were casing the joint.

When DiCaprio himself came in wearing a hoodie and dark sunglasses, the sales assistant didn’t recognize him and feared a robbery was underway.

She took precautions, sending someone to alert the store’s owner, who had stepped out for coffee.

“Linda sent the customer next door to get me, thinking the shop is about the be robbed by these guys,” the proprietor tells the Daily Telegraph. “By the time I get in there Linda has realized who she was serving and let me know everything was all right.”

Gossip Cop has reached out to DiCaprio’s rep to verify the store owner’s account.

DiCaprio is in Australia with Tobey Maguire to shoot director Baz Luhrmann‘s The Great Gatsby.

Leonardo DiCaprio is well known for putting the pedal to the metal with his environmental advocacy, but did the actor recently push a Prius on gal pal Blake Lively?

The Sun reports that DiCaprio, who just bought himself an extremely rare Fisker Karma hybrid super car, was “horrified” by Lively’s gas-guzzling Range Rover and decided to give her a black Prius hybrid.

But while the actor loves going green, he didn’t put a Prius in Lively’s garage.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Blake Lively are “looking into buying an NYC love nest together,” reports Star magazine, which just last month claimed the couple had broken up.

A supposed “source” for the tab says, “Leo and Blake are really happy right now,” and have even discussed “creating a home together.”

The “insider” notes that Lively is “thrilled that he’s willing to put down roots with her,” because she had previously ”worried she didn’t quite measure up” to DiCaprio’s supermodel exes Gisele Bundchen and Bar Refaeli.

Unfortunately for Star, however, this story doesn’t quite add up.

While Blake Lively has “her own career and millions in the bank,” writes the Daily Mail, when it comes to love, she prefers an “old-fashioned” approach.

According to the paper, the “Gossip Girl” star turned to the “cult dating manual ‘The Rules’ to hook Leonardo DiCaprio.”

“Not calling him, making him jealous and acting ‘busy,’ are just some of the commandments in the bestselling book” that Lively used to win over DiCaprio, reports the outlet.

A so-called “friend” of Lively’s claims, “Blake loves [the] dating book ‘The Rules’ and has been following it to the letter… She knew Leo could have any girl he wanted and she figured she had to stand out from the crowd… She’s making him work for it — and he’s fallen hard for her.”

Now it’s time for Gossip Cop to throw the book at the Daily Mail.

Lively did not ensnare DiCaprio nor did she trick him via games.

The two, rather naturally, fell for each other.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Blake Lively‘s relationship is “hanging by a thread,” reports Star magazine, which claims DiCaprio “put the breaks on their new romance” after getting fed up with Lively’s “clinginess.”

The mag says the actor didn’t invite her to his pal Ryan Kavanaugh‘s wedding in July, telling her “he needed some space,” which left Lively “devastated.”

Also causing a rift in the relationship, says the tab, is the fact that Lively “made a bad impression” in June on DiCaprio’s mother Irmelin when she allegedly came off as “trying too hard.”

Additionally, Lively supposedly suspects her beau is keeping in touch with his ex-girlfriend Bar Refaeli.

According to a so-called “insider,” Lively “knows for a fact that Leo has been talking to Bar about meeting up.”

So, is the new couple already headed for a split?

Not so fast.

When Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds filmed Green Lantern, he was still married.

Now they’re promoting it, and he happens to be single.

In Touch wants to pretend this means there’s something going on between the co-stars, and the tab’s especially eager to speculate now that Lively’s linked to Leonardo DiCaprio.

Lively and Reynolds seem to be “growing closer and closer,” reports the tabloid, citing a so-called “friend” who explains that the pair had chemistry on set but “controlled it” since Reynolds was still married.

“Now they seem to be having a great time together,” adds the In Touch source. “Even Leo has noticed it, and that’s why he’s not particularly happy.”

Uh-huh.

Here’s our guess: As soon as the co-stars end their promotional tour and aren’t posing for photos on the red carpet anymore, In Touch is going to drop this bogus rumor entirely and pretend it never happened. That way, the tabloid can just say Reynolds is dating the actress is his next movie.

Leonardo DiCaprio and new gal pal Blake Lively recently had a spat over the actor’s ex, reports the National Enquirer.

According to the supermarket tabloid, after Lively found a garment bag full of women’s clothing, she “flipped when he admitted they belonged to ex-love/supermodel Bar Refaeli.”

DiCaprio tried to explain that Refaeli “just hasn’t picked them up yet,” says the Enquirer, but adds that wasn’t enough for a jealous Lively, so “Leo grabbed the garment bag… hustled it down to his building’s dumpster — and chucked it!”

Actually, the only thing that should be dumped is the Enquirer‘s story.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Blake Lively had a “sneaky affair” behind model Bar Refaeli‘s back, reports Star magazine.

The mag says DiCaprio and the “Gossip Girl” star have been secretly hooking up for quite some time, and their recent European trip was “a calculated coming-out party for the pair after months of keeping their romance under wraps.”

According to a supposed “insider,” DiCaprio and Lively “began meeting regularly” in November after they were introduced at a business dinner with Baz Luhrmann to discuss his upcoming remake of The Great Gastby.

By March, the pair was allegedly “getting so tight that she [Lively] was slipping away from her hectic duties” on the New York set of “Gossip Girl” to hang out with DiCaprio in L.A.

Well, that would be pretty scandalous… if it actually happened.

“Leo DiCaprio & Bar Refaeli Are Having Relationship Trouble — Is Blake Lively To Blame?” asks HollywoodLife, which rarely seems to have the right answer.

The poorly reported blog claims an “insider” says Leonardo DiCaprio is “hooking up with Blake Lively.”

Really?

While GossipCop can confirm that the actor’s relationship with the model has hit a snag, it has NOTHING to do with Lively.

HollywoodLife nevertheless belches up a quote from Lainey Gossip, which reads: “I received an anonymous email yesterday from someone who claims that Leo, or someone resembling Leo, was spotted at 3am on Monday night/Tuesday morning heading into Blake Lively’s apartment.”

As further proof of a DiCaprio-Lively connection, HollywoodLife writes that the “Gossip Girl” star “wants a role in The Great Gatsby more than anything… coincidentally, Leo is starring in the film.”

Let’s step back and look at this…

OK, so HollywoodLife’s “proof” that Lively and DiCaprio are “hooking up” is an “anonymous email” sent to another blogger about someone possibly, maybe, kind of “resembling Leo”?!

Hey, we’d love to meet their other sources like Al Cahall, Hugh Jass, and Harry Nutts.

On the flip side of the reporting spectrum, Gossip Cop investigated and a DiCaprio source tells us the Lively rumor is “not true,” and there’s “nothing going on there” between them.

Additionally, a rep for Lively reiterates it’s “not true at all,” and calls the HollywoodLife story “stupid.”

And oh yeah, we like how the wrong website says Lively “wants a role in The Great Gatsby more than anything.” That same silly site started the rumor, which Gossip Cop also debunked as untrue.

Basically, when it comes to DiCaprio, HollywoodLife’s stories sink faster than the Titanic.

Is Blake Lively going to join The Great Gatsby after all?

There are new rumors that the “Gossip Girl” star will wind up in the upcoming remake of the classic story with Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire and Carey Mulligan.

The buzz follows Lively’s inclusion in the Time 100 Most Influential People list, because Baz Luhrmann, who will direct Gatsby, writes the Time piece on Lively.

“This could of course just all be a coincidence,” speculates HollywoodLife, “But it seems like no one should be surprised to see Blake confirmed for the [Gatsby] role of Daisy or Myrtle down the road.”

Actually… no one should expect such a casting.

Lively is not involved in the project.

A source close to Lively tells Gossip Cop that she and Luhrmann are friends – and that his Time 100 praise for her has nothing to do with a possible role in The Great Gatsby.

If HollywoodLife did their research, they would know that Carey Mulligan is playing Daisy Buchanan in the film, while Isla Fisher is in talks to play Tom Buchanan‘s mistress Myrtle.
