-Oh snap! Nick Cannon just confirmed that he and Mariah Carey live in separate houses, saying “There is trouble in paradise.”

-Those sparse whispers haunting Justin Bieber‘s upper lip barely qualify as a mustache, but he still made a really big deal about shaving it.

-Speaking of facial hair grooming, Jimmy Fallon trimmed Jared Leto’s beard after engaging in an intense staredown.

Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Martin recently visited a winery together, where they no doubt reveled in drinking non-organic blends while chowing down on mounds of gluten-y, non-macrobiotic meat.

-But lest you think the conscious uncoupling is no longer amicable, Gwyneth Paltrow just took the ice bucket challenge and nominated Chris Martin.

-Adorable ice bucket videos keep coming. The latest challengers are Sarah Jessica Parker (who had a very Carrie Bradshaw-y reaction), Ewan McGregor, Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan, Nicole Kidman, Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson, and the Foo Fighters — who turned theirs into an elaborate Carrie spoof.

-And just in case you’re getting sick of all the videos, just know that the ice bucket donations have already topped $41 million.

Aaron Paul posted this note on Instagram last night, saying he’s celebrating the last Emmy ceremony that Breaking Bad is eligible by launching a scavenger hunt around LA this weekend.

-Here’s the first trailer for White Bird in a Blizzard, starring Shailene Woodley and Eva Green.

Juliette Binoche and Kristen Stewart get cuddly on the cover of Interview Germany, in which Binoche admits that she “skipped” Twilight while researching her new costar. I’m going to try to get tickets to their TIFF premiere of Clouds of Sils Maria, which got raves in Cannes.

Jon Hamm looks all kinds of yummy on the cover of British GQ.

-Oh god. Are Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey breaking up? This is even worse than the Beyonce/Jay Z rumours.

-Here’s the new trailer for Brad Pitt’s Fury, which wisely downplays Shia LaBeouf.

Breaking Bad’s Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul Star in Best Fake TV Show Ever

Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul reunited for fake commercial to promote the Emmys, and I liked it so much it made my chest hurt a little.

-Speaking of the Emmys, I made some predictions for who will take home the gold. If you use it to win your office pool, I want a cut!

Anna Kendrick was spotted out with her new boyfriend, who looks like the guy from Game of Thrones but isn’t. Cute dress!

-I’m going to watch the crap out of this new Drumline show. The crap out of it!

-The (dialogue-free) first trailer for Jason Reitman’s Men, Women & Children has landed. Though the trailer doesn’t really do anything for me, I might try to go to its TIFF premiere just because the cast is so stacked: Emma Thompson, Jennifer GarnerAnson Elgort and Rosemarie DeWitt.
