It seems like just the other day that Beet reported that Christina Ricci was engaged to her own personal giant, but now her relationship with comedian Owen Benjamin is kaput.

According to People, Benjamin had a birthday party on Sunday and the couple acted normally.  Sometime after that, they got into a fight and decided that the best plan of action was to part ways.

As it always is with Hollywood splits, the two remain close friends who talk on the phone every day.  You know, all three days that they’ve been apart.

Christina and Owen met last year, were officially a couple in October and engaged in March.  Sorry to say, this whirlwind didn’t have a happy ending.

Word on the street is that Christina Ricci just got engaged to her comedian boyfriend, Owen Benjamin, although her reps haven’t confirmed it yet.

Christina was apparently out doing some drinking to celebrate this weekend — and, if you read between the lines of Ted Casablanca’s column, probably putting some party favors up her nose. I am of course referring to, uh, nose rings.

Our source was partying at the Palihouse in West Hollywood last Saturday night with his pals next door to the Ricci/Benjamin bash. He briefly spoke to Owen himself, who confirmed it was his engagement party, while Ricci and the couple’s cohorts were in the room engaging in all types of typical late-night H-wood hotel room behavior.

Our source lost an amigo at his shindig, and called the dude’s phone looking for him. Looks like somebody snuck into the wrong fete, since it was Christina Ricci who answered on the other line!

Acting out-of-it from indulging in silliness more appropriate for a bachelorette party, not an engagement soiree, CR started screaming she would “call the f—-cking cops” if our source kept calling her—even ‘tho it wasn’t her phone! Who knew such feisty things came in tiny packages?

Congrats to Owen and Christina! Good luck with this, kids.

Christina Ricci shows it all off at the Whitney Museum’s big gala in NYC.

Also there: Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon, Patrick Dempsey, and Donatella Versace.

Christina Ricci enjoys some fun in the Malibu sun with her boyfriend, Christopher “Kick” Gurry.

It’s really hard to pull of the whole tight black skirt with a tank top thing, but this is how you do it.

She looks gorgeous.

She’s at the Toyota Long Beach Grand Prix promoting Speed Racer. And there’s pretty much only one way to force me not to see a movie with Christina Ricci in it, and that’s to make the movie about racecars. Done and done.

Heh. A reporter from Interview magazine made the mistake of asking Christina Ricci how she liked being the face of Louis Vuitton.

Her response?

“Well, I’m not anymore. I was one of four actresses that they used in a campaign once and it was really fun. I liked it. I would like to be the face of Louis Vuitton. I am not, however. You know who is? Scarlett Johansson is the face of Louis Vuitton. Wrong interview.”

Ouch.

This is why it’s nice to be a blogger and not a real reporter. I don’t ever have the opportunity to say really dumb shit like that directly to celebs.

Here’s my precious Christina Ricci at some boring event in Las Vegas.

I love the dress, but her face looks weird lately. Like she’s had some work done or something. I’m not sure.
