Has anybody else noticed this trend?

When Kate Hudson has a boyfriend, you hardly ever see pictures of her with her son. Once she goes through a high-profile break-up, there are like 1000 pictures of her with Ryder everywhere.

It’s not that I don’t think Kate is an active, involved mother when she has a boyfriend — I think she is — but I don’t think she alerts the paparazzi every time she leaves the house with Ryder until she has a high-profile break-up. It’s like her way of saying, “See? I’m fine. I do have a man in my life. And he’ll never dump me for being too desperate. He won’t even realize what a problem it is for another 15 years or so. How jealous are you now, Lance???”

The Chicago Sun-Times — which broke the news of Kate and Lance’s split — is now reporting that Lance dumped Kate because she was too clingy and needy.

Seems the Tour de France champ and cancer survival poster boy was feeling a bit ‘’smothered” by the actress. According to an Armstrong associate at his Livestrong charity foundation, the sports hero felt Hudson was ”just too needy,” and was coming on ”too strong, too fast … sensing Kate was way too desperate, a woman who clearly can’t be on her own without a man in her life at all times.”

One thing Armstrong reportedly liked about ex-girlfriend Sheryl Crow — and one reason that relationship lasted as long as it did — was that ”Sheryl’s one very independent woman. … Lance liked that,” said the source.

And what did Kate do after the split?

She ran back to her ex-boyfriend!

Take a year and figure out who the hell YOU are, Kate!

Word on the street is that Kate Hudson has already moved on after breaking up with Lance Armstrong. She’s reportedly holed up in a cabin in Canada, screwing the brains out of her ex-boyfriend Eric Lindros. She headed up there with him right after she and Lance split.

Can Kate be single for five seconds? Apparently not. This is a young woman who got married at 21, divorced at 27, and hasn’t been single for more than thirty seconds in the two years since her divorce. Insecurity much?

Take a break from it, Kate!

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. Kate goes through men like Owen Wilson goes through liquor. Did that cross a line? Eh.

Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong are reportedly splitsville after a three-month whirlwind romance.

“There was no drama or ugliness – They just decided to end things,” said a source. “There is no hatred, just sadness.”

I wonder what went wrong? They both seemed so gung-ho about this.

This new set of photos of Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong makes me very happy. Mostly because Kate seems to be acting and looking like a regular person. She’s not wearing a ton of makeup, her hair isn’t really styled, and she’s not in camera-ready mode. And she’s still a very pretty girl, but she looks human. She looks like a normal, pretty girl and not like a starlet. She looks — dare I say it? — imperfect. And it makes me feel better about myself, because maybe if I had a full-time hair and makeup team before I went to events I could look like a starlet too. Not saying I’m as pretty as Kate — I am fully aware that I am not — but something about these photos just makes me feel more okay about being a mere mortal. Celebrities: they’re mortals, too!

Oh, and to make matters even better? Alfonso Ribeiro was there! I’m always so happy when Carlton is anywhere with photographers. I love Carlton.

These two have been inseparable for weeks now.

I wonder how Owen feels about all this. It happened so suddenly. We haven’t seen much of him recently. I feel really bad for him. I mean, I know Kate and Lance haven’t done anything wrong, but still. I’m angry with them for some reason. I’m so protective of Owen these days.
