Personally, I’d completely forgotten they were dating, but, just in time for the Idol premiere tonight, Kimberly Caldwell and David Cook have announced they’re splitting up.

“Kimberly and David ended their relationship just before the holidays,” Caldwell’s rep told In Touch. “The couple remain good friends and, being very private people, appreciate their privacy at this time.”

Will you guys be watching the new season of Idol tonight????

Tragically enough, I probably will. The audition episodes are my favorite!

Thanks to a very dedicated PR guy for getting me the full clip of American Idol’s Kimberly Caldwell singing at the Ms. Planet Beach International Pageant.

Man, I miss the old days of AmIdol.

What’s the verdict, kids?

Fresh from my inbox:

American Idol veteran Kimberly Caldwell belts out one of her latest songs at the 2007 Ms. Planet Beach International Pageant (the largest spokesmodel competition in America).

Singing at the Ms. Planet Beach International Pageant!!!

That’s kind of like being famous.

In fact, this one time, my friend Katie and I got really drunk and climbed up on stage with the band at Lighthouse on the Hermosa Pier on St. Patty’s Day and ended up sticking around for all three of their sets. People told us the next day that we were fabulous … ly wasted. But you don’t see us sending out press releases about it. I’m just saying.

Anyway, her PR agency had the courtesy to send me the Biggest. Photo. Ever. of her at this event, so, after the jump, Kimberly Caldwell’s tonsils!
