Theres Stewart, theres Colbert, but dont forget to talk about Comedy Centrals:

Could Hugh Hefner dump his one or all three of his girlfiends? If you care, it’s time to talk about: “The Girls Next Door.”
The fifth season, premiering Sunday, could be beginning of the end. Numerous reports surfaced last month, saying that his relationships with all three are on the outs. Hefner went so far as to tell UsMagazine.com that he and girlfriend No. 1, Holly Madison, are “in transition.”
“She is still my girlfriend. Now will that last? I don’t think anything lasts forever. I love her very much, but you know, she wants to get married and have children. That isn’t very much in the cards for me.” No. Really?

If you were charmed by “Enchanted,” you might want to talk about: Jon McLaughlin
Or, if you like the Jonas Brothers but are looking to age up. Either way, McLaughlin, who wrote and performed the “Enchanted” ballad “So Close,” should do the trick. His second album, “OK Now,” showcases more of the the singer-songwriter’s Top 40 side. Choice track: “Smack Into You.”
