Chris Pine and Audrina Patridge Split

This will make a lot of people happy– a few editors on this site in particular: James T. Kirk and The Artist Formerly Known as Ol’ Dead Eye are history.

A source is quoted as saying “Chris Pine was forced to dump Audrina because his camp wants him to take the right strategic steps to become a big movie star. Dating a reality show star would tarnish his image.”

The couple had only been together for a few weeks and probably weren’t all that serious, but Pine’s people reportedly became concerned because the “media” was so interested in the pairing.

Don’t get me wrong. I agree that Pine could do much better and I’m glad those two have split like Lindsay Lohan’s Labia. I just think it’s a little strange, and, dare I say douchey to date or not date someone based on what your agent and PR people tell you.

  • I agree…. terrible way to decide who’s right for you…
    But I’m glad he’s free so I can daydream uninhibited!

  • I find it funny that they can even tack on “star” at the end of “reality show”.

    But YAY! I don’t care how douchey it is (and indeed, it is very douchey) I’m just glad that they’re splitsville.

  • Even if it does seem bad, if he was willing to part with her over what his PR people said, he probably wasn’t that attached to her anyway.

  • You really like to mention Lindsay’s labia… something tells me your screensaver slideshow is nipple slips and upskirts ; ) J/K

  • Didn’t Audrina’s manager just say that she was moving on to bigger things now since she’s a star? I guess the rest of the world wouldn’t agree.
