Who needs Nytol?

My favourite gossip sites are all reporting that Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon have split. In fact, the bloggers/journos seem to be going a little crazy over the speculation. 'Have they/haven't they?!' posts are all over the net, official statements have been released from spokespeople. This surprises me. Jake and Reese? Causing media hysteria? Really?! I like them as actors, and they seem like decent, normal people. A sweet, well-matched duo.
But, on the excitement scale they are a massive ZERO. They're just slightly behind my ultimate snoozefest couples - the miserable JT and Jessica Biel, and the bland Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner (I'm yawning just thinking about them). They like to keep things private, which is understandable, and during their two years together they've frequently managed to slip under the radar. Half the time I forget that they're even together...and I never forget anything to do with Tinseltown. So what exactly are us celebrity junkies going to miss if they have parted ways? I'll tell you what...nothing!
If they have broken up, yes it's a shame, and that's one less likable, attractive pairing on the red carpet. But, in the words of a fantastically flamboyant, super-posh, uber-gay model booker I met on a night out in Paris a few years ago: "WHO CARES?!"
