MEG RYAN

John Mellencamp puts Meg Ryan back in the spotlight

Meg Ryan Thrilled With Her Press-Generating Mellencamp Romance

After a long hiatus, Meg's new beau John Mellencamp is helping her return to the spotlight

Although Meg Ryan has been laying low for quite some time (both romantically speaking and with her work), she’s now supposedly in love and is greatly enjoying the buzz her new relationship is creating. Meg, 49, and John Mellencamp, 59, surprised everyone last week when they announced they were a couple by gallivanting around New York City’s SoHo and sipping coffee at Martha’s Vineyard. And the most surprising element is that they were spotted out in public together mere days after the singer announced his divorce from his wife of eighteen years. A source to People claims that Meg and John have been dating for seven weeks, and that John and his wife had been separated for some time prior.

Why Women Should Look Forward To Aging

One man explains what he loves about older women and why they should embrace their age.

Don't believe what you read in magazines and Web sites for women. Well, except for this one. When it's me. Publications for women love to make you feel sh**ty about yourself, particularly when it comes to aging—as if it were a choice, and women who choose to let nature take its course are sad, harelipped bog creatures who are too busy listening to the wind whistle through their empty wombs to properly moisturize. Actresses who were once young and vibrant and adorable undergo grotesque surgeries to defy the natural process of senescence and end up with strange facsimiles of their former faces. (Meg Ryan's mouth and Lara Flynn Boyle's mouth should go bowling at an alley that allows weird-looking mouths to bowl at discount prices.) Well, I'm sort of sick of it. Yes, 20-something women can be vital and gorgeous, many of them with bodies at the nubile peak that our culture covets so much. It's not just the gorgeous groundstrokes that keep men watching women's tennis. And don't get me started on the grunting volley. But older women? They rule. For a ton of reasons. And they're sexy as all get out.

5 Unforgettable Hollywood Love Triangles

Third wheels have been responsible for the wrecks of many celebrity relationships.

The love triangle: it's often used as a plot device in our favorite movies and TV shows because of the irresistible drama created by a character torn between two lovers. However, with the recent David Letterman sex scandal and rumors swirling about Justin Timberlake's alleged double duty with Jessica Biel and Rihanna, we're reminded that, in Hollywood, these sticky situations happen just as often off-screen as on. And in real life, love triangles aren't quite so much fun. The fallout can be devastating for everyone involved—both emotionally and career-wise.

Robert Wagner lays bare his soul in his new book Piece Of My Heart. The loves of his life are central to the tale including a much older woman. And Meg Ryan was full of the spirit of disclosure as she let the world know that Dennis Quaid was not totally innocent in their 2001 divorce. Good deal.
