We here at GlossLip are not immune to the plethora of lovey-dovey sentiments that rain down on Valentine’s Day (or, as it is more commonly known, The Day Card, Chocolate, And Flower Companies Recoup All Their Losses For The Year Day).  So, we decided to see just which Conversation Hearts our favorite celebs might be receiving this V-Day.

And yes, these are actual sayings off actual Conversation Hearts that I purchased at an actual store and am actually munching on now.  I have sat here and laboriously picked through them, searching for just the right ones, drawing from a bowl purchased specifically for this auspicious occasion.  Oh, the sacrifices I make for my art.

But wait, there’s more…

Okay, so they’re not K-I-S-S-I-N-G, but they are holding hands and looking aw-aw-adorable.

They’ve been on a promotional tour for their new movie and I guess all the time together has paid off.  Here they are in Rome, where they’ve been seen holding hands and generally looking lovey-dovey:

The pair met on set of the upcoming movie Rendition and have now taken their romance public - they were spotted holding hands and canoodling during a romantic trip to Rome.

Witherspoon, 31, whose divorce from former husband Ryan Phillippe was finalised this month, had previously denied a romance with the Brokeback Mountain star.  

I knew these two couldn’t stay apart for long!  You could just tell by their body language and the way they acted when they were around one another.

Besides, he’s as cute as a speckled puppy under a red wagon.  What more do you want?

Rumored on-again/off-again paramours Jake Gyllenhall and Reese Witherspoon came within inches of each other at last night’s premiere of their movie, Rendition, but didn’t speak and only got together for one awkward photo op with the film’s director between them.  Says Us:

“At the after party they were both doing their own thing,” an eyewitness tells Usmagazine.com. “They had friends with them and just hung out with them.” […]

“You know how actors are who are in projects together — they always go up to each other and say, ‘It’s so good to see you!’ For actors to not talk to each other, they have to either hate each other — which they don’t — or they’re hiding something.”

Personally, I think they’re adorable together.  And now that Reese’s divorce from Ryan Phillippe is done, she may have decided that she’s ready to try it again.  The two have been an on-again, off-again item for a good part of the summer, with intimate dinners and romantic rendezvous at posh motels, but recently decided to take a bit of a breather.  Since neither are of the PDA type, like so many in Hollyweird, it’s hard to tell whether they are truly busted up or keeping things on the down-low.  (The photo to the left is from the TIFF premiere of Rendition in Toronto, although it does look like they are wearing the same clothes.)

Reese is one of the most attractive women working in film today, with classic clean looks and a beautiful smile, while Jake is one of the few young men in Hollywood I can stand to look at.  I like him minus the beard much better (certain men can do facial hair, Jake isn’t one of them), but he’s fine to look at anyway.  Those eyes!

I hope they can work it out.  And I hope this isn’t a rebound romance for Reese.  All in all, I think they are just what Hollywood needs….a fairly normal couple.  The above photo is as close as they got all night….I think I can feel the tension from here!  What do you think?

Here’s what we know:  Tobey Maguire is ready to retire his role as Spider-Man after playing the red-webbed hero for the first three live-action films.  This doesn’t mean he has retired, just that he would like to. 

Here’s what’s been speculated:  Director Sam Raimi is looking for a potential replacement to continue the hugely popular comic book series turned blockbusters if Tobey quits.  He believes that Jake would be a good choice in that replacement.

Here’s the mystery: Then there’s the rumor of bringing DC Comics superhero Captain Marvel/Shazam! character to the big screen.  Screenwriter for the film John August has denied the rumors of Jake being slated for the role, but doesn’t rule him out.  Hollywood, the land where a vague denial is almost as good as an affirmation, August’s statement fits that definition:

“I can pretty much assure you he has never heard of the project and we have never discussed him. After several months of meetings, casting has come up exactly zero times. There is no casting list. If we did have a casting list, Jake’s name would probably be on it, but trust me, there is not a list. There is just a script to be written, which I should probably get back to.”

Okay, so what that means is, yes he is the most likely candidate to play the role of Billy Batson/Captain Marvel/Shazam! - and yes, he’s also a candidate for replacing Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man.  Cripes Hollywood is full of mystery and intrigue!

And crap, a fair amount of crap.

My life hangs in the balance as I ponder who will be Spider-Man.  Seriously, this is starting to really bug me! Har.

In separate news, I for one, hope the rumors of Reese Witherspoon and Jakey dating are true.  It would quell the rumors of Jake being gay and having poor taste in women (he dated Kirsten Dunst for crying out loud) and Reese needs to get past her pot-head hubby Ryan Phillipe.

Ahhh, spring is in the air and love is just around the corner.  Don’t let it run you over.
