Another Rock Star/Model Couple Is Over: Turns out he will eventually leave this bed: model Anne Vyalitsyna and Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine have called it quits. "Adam and I have decided to separate in an amicable and supportive manner," the Victoria's Secret stunner says in a statement. Anne must have missed that crucial lesson of model/rockstar relationships: never make a music video with your boyfriend. It will live on as an awkward memento.

Arizona Muse is still one of the hottest moms on the planet, and she talks to the Telegraph about the challenges faced by a young mother starting in the industry: travel, breastfeeding, and body bounce-back (try not to hate too hard when Muse says she prefers her post-baby bod!).

Maybe you've never heard of Vente-Privee, but if you've ever visited Gilt Groupe, HauteLook, Rue La La, etc., you know what they do. The French company launched a designer flash sales site back in 2001 (that's six years before Gilt Groupe and HauteLook) and inspired the launch of Gilt. The firm is a huge player in Europe--they currently boast 13 million users and about $1 billion in yearly sales--but they've steered clear of the US. Until now. This morning, American Express announced a joint partnership with Vente-Privee to launch an American site later on this year. (Each company owns 50% of the venture. And this is VP's first foray into a non-European market.)
