Michelle Williams and Jason Segel Reportedly Break Up

Michelle Williams and Jason Segel have split, according to a new report in Us Weekly.

Michelle Williams and Jason Segel have split, according to a new report in Us Weekly. They got together just over a year ago following an introduction from their mutual friend Busy Philipps. When Jason wasn't in LA, he spent a great deal of time in NYC with Michelle and her daughter Matilda.

In March's InStyle, Michelle touched on her life with Jason. She said, "He is nice . . . I didn't actually realise who he was before I started dating him. I mean, I saw the Muppets movie, and I thought, 'Oh, that's cute,' but the truth is I didn't realise he made a lot of very popular, funny movies or was on a TV show. But maybe more important, I didn't realise he was so tall. I thought, 'Hey, man, you're cramping my style!' I tried wearing wedge heels for a while to compensate, but it wasn't me and I just gave up."

Michelle and Jason were snapped on a Mexican vacation along with Busy back in January, though he did not accompany her to any of her recent press engagements for her upcoming movie Oz the Great and Powerful.

This Is 40: Comedy at Its Most Painful

This Is 40, Judd Apatow's latest directorial effort, warns audiences about the dangers of blinking, meaning if you close your eyes you risk waking up decades later, wondering how you got to be so darn old.

This Is 40, Judd Apatow's latest directorial effort, warns audiences about the dangers of blinking, meaning if you close your eyes you risk waking up decades later, wondering how you got to be so darn old. In a more literal sense, I did blink while watching the film. In fact, I full-on closed my eyes at the sight of Paul Rudd spread eagle with nothing but a strategically place hand mirror covering his man parts; I cringed while Pete (Rudd) and his wife, Debbie (Leslie Mann), screamed at each other for the umpteenth time; I yawned, I scoffed, but as with most of Apatow's projects, I also laughed and related to the conflicted characters.

This movie is billed as the "sort-of sequel" to Knocked Up, but it's more like a spin-off, centring completely on Pete and Debbie's clan five years later. The kids (played by Apatow and Mann's real-life children, Maude and Iris Apatow), are growing up and acting out — if watching unhealthy amounts of Lost qualifies as acting out — and the whole family is hitting a palpable rough patch. The film's unflinching honesty about shifting family dynamics is one of its strengths, but it's also undoubtedly uncomfortable to watch as resentment curdles and touches every aspect of the characters' lives. To find out what else I thought, just keep reading.

Megan Fox, Paul Rudd and the Apatow-Mann Clan Debut This Is 40

Paul Rudd, Leslie Mann and Megan Fox celebrated the premiere of their new movie, This Is 40, in LA last night.

Paul Rudd, Leslie Mann and Megan Fox celebrated the premiere of their new movie, This Is 40, in LA last night. Megan, wearing Roland Mouret, and Paul were joined by their co-star Leslie, in a Vionnet dress, and her family. Leslie's husband, Judd Apatow, directed the film, and their two daughters, Maude and Iris Apatow, play Leslie and Paul's children in the movie, which is loosely billed as a sequel to 2007's Knocked Up. Jason Segel, who is also in the film, attended the premiere but without girlfriend Michelle Williams by his side. Lena Dunham dropped by the event to show some support for Judd, an executive producer on her show, Girls. Lena was spotted goofing around with friend Aubrey Plaza on the red carpet.

This has been a busy few months for Megan since she gave birth to her first child, Noah, on Sept. 27. Megan said that becoming a mum has changed her attitude towards her work. According to Megan, "It changes your perspective about being overly sexual in a film when you have a baby."

Late Australian actor Heath Ledger's mum and stepfather, Sally and Roger Bell, flew over to the US last week to spend quality time with their granddaughter, Matilda. Matilda and her mum, Michelle Williams, were joined at the Bronx Zoo in New York by Michelle's boyfriend Jason Segel, who seems to have taken on a fatherly role for the little girl. Jason reportedly reached out a few weeks ago and expressed his desire to get to know Heath's family — and it looks like this is the beginning of a lovely connection. Heath's death in 2008 devastated those close to him, so it's great to see that they're all still close and looking happy on their day trip. Click through to see more pictures of the cute family!

There was plenty to keep us occupied this week as we farewelled Winter here in the Southern Hemisphere (hooray!) and celebrated various events taking place in our Northern counterparts. The 69th Venice International Film Festival kicked off on August 29, and we watched a bevy of beautiful people — such as Kate Hudson — as they got into the party spirit. But it was more of a family-filled week for some of our other favourite celebrity mums, like Hilary Duff and Michelle Williams — they were snapped taking their cute kids out to farmer's markets and for ice-cream in LA and New York, while back down under, a couple of "foxy morons" celebrated the release of their first film, Kath & Kimderella. Click through the gallery to check out what else kept the stars and their families busy over the week just gone.

See All the Celebrities Who Visited Australia in April!

April 2012 shall be known as ‘The Month Hollywood Came to Australia.’ Being so far removed from where all the action happens, it’s easy to see why we get so excited when celebrities make the trip Down Under.

April 2012 shall be known as ‘The Month Hollywood Came to Australia.’ Being so far removed from where all the action happens, it’s easy to see why we get so excited when celebrities make the trip Down Under. This past month we were overwhelmed with the amount of talent to hit our shores — not to mention all the hot guys who had girls losing their voices from screaming so much! At the beginning of April some of the A-listers who’d flown out for the launch of Marquee Sydney stayed around to do some sight-seeing, and then we had Zac Efron, One Direction, Chace Crawford, the stars of Battleship . . . At the moment we’re still playing host to Revenge’s Emily VanCamp and Joshua Bowman, The Five-Year Engagement’s Emily Blunt and Jason Segel, and Whitney Port, who’s here for MBFWA. We’ve got our fingers crossed that plenty more stars head our way soon!
