“Demi’s Sad Spiral,” reads the headline of a cover story from Us Weekly, which goes on to claim that a struggling Demi Moore has been “chasing after” 24-year-old Zac Efron.

The mag says Moore “tracked down” Efron, a good friend of her daughter Rumer, at a recent party in Venice, California.

According to a so-called “Efron source,” “She just showed up, and everyone was pretty freaked out. They thought it was weird she would hang out with people half her age.”

The supposed insider claims, “She calls him and texts him a lot, but he’s not interested at all,” adding, “He thinks she’s a creepy cougar.”

Us says Efron was so repelled by the star’s advances that he “left the party to escape Moore.”

But while this all makes for a juicy story – and while Moore has certainly been going through her share of turmoil – it’s just not the case that she’s been preying on Efron.

A Moore confidante tells Gossip Cop the mag’s story is “completely untrue,” and an Efron insider reiterates that there’s been nothing weird going on between them.

“Taylor Swift & Zac Efron’s Relationship To Be Revealed Soon,” reads a headline on HollywoodLife.

The webloid goes on to explain, “Since going out for a romantic dinner, we’ve been wondering if Zaylor is a new item. Ellen DeGeneres will get to the bottom of it Feb. 21 on her TV show when they are both there!”

HollywoodLife then adds, “We all know Ellen DeGeneres is amazing at disarming people with her charm, so we have hope she’ll get to the bottom of Taylor, 22, and 24-year-old Zac’s relationship status.”

Wait a second.

Gossip Cop already got “to the bottom” of the stars’ “relationship status” last week, when HollywoodLife first tried peddling baseless claims that The Lorax co-stars are more than just friends.

It was wrong then, it’s wrong now and it’ll still be wrong when the pair appear on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” next month.

Gossip Cop looks forward to seeing HollywoodLife backtrack when its big “reveal” never materializes.

“Does Taylor Swift have a new man in her life to write a song about?” begins a piece from HollywoodLife, which reports that the singer had a “romantic date” with Zac Efron on January 6.

A so-called “insider” at L.A. restaurant Pace observes, “They were deep in conversation and very giggly,” adding, “They seemed very friendly.”

“Could it be love?” asks the clueless blog, which quotes another source as saying Swift “even drove to the dinner date together in an Audi that belongs to Zac.”

Wait — she was in his car?! How scandalous!

Anyway, the  site goes on to report, “Taylor thinks Zac’s cute,” and notes that three years ago, Efron referred to Swift as a “lovely girl.”

Oh, please.

There was absolutely NOTHING “romantic” about Swift and Efron’s dinner outing.

The pair was doing press for their upcoming movie, The Lorax, and decided to grab a bite to eat afterwards as friends.

HollywoodLife never fails to make a mountain of a molehill when it comes to new celebrity “romances.”

“Zac & Rumer: It’s Serious” reads the headline of a Star story that claims Zac Efron and Rumer Willis are “taking their relationship to the next level.”

The mag reports that after Efron’s failed attempts to win back Vanessa Hudgens, he “finally realized that the right woman had been there for him all along.”

Now, says the tabloid, in addition to a “romantic” getaway in the Turks & Caicos islands with Willis, she’s been “spending the night” a lot time in Efron’s home, and “they’re acting like a couple.”

According to Star, “Zac told Rumer he’s developing strong feelings for her.”

Here’s what’s good about the mag’s reporting: Nothing.

A source close to Efron tells Gossip Cop that the High School Musical star and Willis are strictly “friends.”

Are Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens “back on?” asks Perez Hilton.

According to the blogger, the former couple “may be on their way to [a] reconciliation” as they were recently “seen partying together at Eden, a nightclub in Hollywood.”

Perez quotes an alleged “spy” as saying that Hudgens was “bopping around with her arms up while Zac had his hands all over her!”

“The two were inseparable,” notes the source, adding, “Zac sat in between her legs and she wrapped her arms around him.”

“And the freakin’ PDA doesn’t stop there!” scribbles Perez. “Apparently, there was some kissing going on as well towards the end of the night! KISSING!!!”

This all did happen… LAST JANUARY.

Somehow or another, the behind-the-times blogger reported this 10-months-old night together as a current ”reconciliation.”

The mag says that Willis brought Efron home to meet Demi Moore for a “formal introduction and a chance for them to get to know each other.”

According to a supposed “pal,” “Zac brought Demi flowers. She was super-polite and they got along well.”

Once again, a number of sites are flunking some very basic math when it comes to the High School Musical kids.

Ashley Tisdale had a big birthday celebration this weekend to celebrate turning 26.

During the festivities, the actress joked around on the beach with co-star and friend Zac Efron, one of many guests, including Tisdale’s boyfriend, Scott Speer.

Tisdale was excited to have Efron there, tweeting, “So happy Zacary made it to my party!!! He’s my brother/best friend!!!”

But outlets including HollywoodLife assume there’s something more sinister to it, wondering whether Tisdale’s “cozy” behavior was “betraying” her friend and Efron ex Vanessa Hudgens.

“Loyalty seemed to be the furthest thing from Ashley and Zac’s mind at the July 2 Malibu shindig,” scolds the site.

Seriously, HollywoodLife?

Tisdale and Efron, who have been friends for years, played in the waves in front of cameras and a large group of people, including her boyfriend at the LPB Group/Talent Resources Beach House.

She openly acknowledged how happy she was to have her “brother” there.

There’s nothing disloyal or stealthy or romantic about any of this.

Tisdale and Efron are not dating, they’re not hooking up, and they’re not “betraying” Hudgens.

According to the tab, Gomez is “now distancing herself” from Hudgens, even “cutting back on her calls and texts to Vanessa,” because image is everything to Gomez, who’s concerned Hudgens’ “wild lifestyle” will tarnish her [own] “spotless reputation.”

Star quotes a so-called “source” claiming, “Vanessa has been jumping from guy to guy and going out multiple nights a week” since splitting with Zac Efron, and Gomez is “very conscious of what the public thinks,” and is concerned Hudgens’ “constant partying… could reflect badly on her too.”

The following is Hudgens’ exchange with Ellen DeGeneres:

Ellen: I know that you’re out of a relationship now. Are you friendly [with Zac]? That’s hard to be in the business because you’re both successful and bound to run into each other.

Ellen: How long were you together with Zac?

Vanessa: Five years.

Ellen: Five years. Wow, that’s a long time. But you’re friendly?

Vanessa: Yes.

Ellen: Are you single now or you dating?

Vanessa: Yes, I’m single.

Ellen: You’re single? But there’s a guy, I saw a picture of, that is saying you’re dating.

Vanessa: Can’t a girl have friends?

Ellen: Yes, they can. But there’s a guy that looks like he’s more than a friend.

“Zac Efron stunned onlookers at a recent Hollywood event when he held hands and even flirted right under the nose of ex-girlfriend, Vanessa Hudgens – and it was with a GUY!” begins a piece in the National Enquirer.

According to a so-called “eyewitness” for the tabloid, the High School Musical star “got cozy with a buff young man” during an NBA party at the W Hotel in L.A. on February 18.

“I was shocked at how relaxed and open Zac was with this guy,” continues the supposed witness, adding that Efron “seemed really into” the young man.

If the notion of Efron being all over an unidentified man in such a public situation but being seen only by the Enquirer‘s alleged source sounds a bit off, that’s because the (imaginary) “eyewitness” concocted the entire thing.

A source close to Efron tells Gossip Cop, “It’s bullsh*t.”

Maybe even the Enquirer knew the story wasn’t true – the tab made a point of noting that Efron himself has “laughed off” questions in the past about his sexual preferences.

“Rihanna & Amanda War Over Ryan,” reads the headline of a piece in OK!, which goes on to claim, “Ryan Phillippe gets close to Rihanna – and Amanda Seyfried is Furious.”

According to the mag, at Rihanna’s 23rd birthday party on February 20, “Phillippe stuck close to her side” since he’s “now hot and heavy” with the singer.

OK! further says a partygoer heard Phillippe tell Zac Efron at the birthday bash that he and singer are “just having fun,” noting “it’s more physical than anything.”

As for Rihanna, she “thinks Ryan is hot” and “likes a guy with a little edge, a little bit of a bad boy,” says a so-called “pal.”

Uh, huh…

So, how does girlfriend Amanda Seyfried feel about all this?

She’s “furious – and determined to fight for her beau of three months,” writes OK!

Here’s what not OK – this story.

Far from having a “physical” thing, Phillippe and Rihanna “barely know each other,” a source close to the Cruel Intentions star told Gossip Cop.

And Seyfried is not “furious” with anyone other than the media, which has been wrongly reporting that her boyfriend’s hooking up with Rihanna.

Seyfried recently told paparazzi, “The Rihanna story is not true… It is so f***in’ not true.”

In 2011, MTV should resolve to be more careful when it passes judgment.

The outlet was so eager to needle Kristen Stewart in a piece “grading” celebrities on their old New Year’s resolutions, it used a fake new “resolution” another site jokingly suggested for Stewart as though it were the real thing.

Here’s Stewart’s supposed quote: “I resolve not to resent all of the hatred that’s sent my way, and to remember that it’s only borne out of jealousy, because I am the luckiest girl in the whole, wide world.”

In case it’s not obvious, those worlds are not actually Stewart’s.

They’re part of a slideshow of “totally made up suggestions” for resolutions for 2011 put together recently by Celebuzz.

If MTV had bothered to check where the Stewart “quote” originated, they’d know it was part of the same feature in which Zac Efron “resolves” to “hook up with only half of the available females in the world” and Snooki “resolves” not to tan to the point of looking like “a traffic cone.”

In other words – completely fake.

Instead, MTV graded the comment as though Stewart made it herself – at the beginning of 2010. Claiming the actress “still seems to be carrying around a lot of resentment,” the site gives her a “D” on fulfilling her alleged “resolution.”

Gossip Cop resolves to keep separating fact from fiction – and good celeb reporting from bad celeb reporting – as we enter 2011.
