Are Ryan Phillippe and Amanda Seyfried Over Already?

While Ryan Phillippe's ex Reese Witherspoon is planning a wedding to fiancé Jim Toth, the actor's own love life isn't go quite as well. According to UsMagazine.com, Phillipe and girlfriend of three months, Amanda Seyfried, have already called it quits.

"They are not dating anymore," a source reveals to the site. "And it's not a big deal for either of them."

The couple first hit it off at Kate Hudson's Halloween party last year, and have since been out and about together on numerous occasions. But an insider says that, after some time together, Phillippe, 36, and Seyfried, 25, just didn't make a solid connection.

"At one point, there was a chance it would develop into something more serious," the source said. "But it never did."

And Phillippe may already even have his on eye on another celeb, as a spy says he was hitting on superstar Rihanna, 22, at Saturday's Gucci/Roc Nation brunch at L.A.'s Soho House.

"He said something to the effect of, 'What are you doing tonight?'" the source says. But Rihanna wasn't biting, telling Phillippe that she needed to get some sleep before the Grammys. Better luck next time, Ryan!

Are you surprised Ryan and Amanda split so soon? Chime in below!

Miley Cyrus: Dance Class Darling

Keeping up on her stage-stepping abilities, Miley Cyrus was spotted out for a dance class in Los Angeles, California on Monday afternoon (February 21).

The "Last Song" actress had her hands full with sneakers, paperwork, a bottled water and her cell phone while dressed in blue shorts and a t-shirt for the week-beginning footwork lessons.

Over the weekend, Miss Cyrus was busy grabbing up an honor for her charitable efforts - as she was presented with the first-ever Global Action Youth Leadership Award on Friday night.

Being presented the accolade by Hilary Duff, Miley told the audience, "I got to tell you that I never thought I would get an award from Hilary Duff. This is like a dream come true to me. She inspired me."

She added, "I want kids to do something they love. Not something that seems like a chore because someone tells them that?s the right thing to do or what their parents want or what?s important to people around them, but what?s in their heart."
