Try not to look at Nick Lachey's and Kelly Ripa's Halloween costume as insensitive, guys! How were they supposed to know that after 72 days of marriage, Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries were going to call it quits TODAY? ON HALLOWEEN? We all know how much planning goes in to a solid costume -- it wouldn't be fair to chuck all that hard work for some lame drugstore getup on the big day! Just think of the co-hosts of "Live With Regis and Kelly" as paying homage to the couple's long-lasting beautiful commitment. Yeah... that's it.

Kelly and Nick nailed the celebrity couple's wedding day look with replicas of the wedding dress and tux. Nick even took it to the next level (literally) with some height-altering stilts. We're not sure what's scarier, though: how much the TV hosts look like the former couple or the fact that Kim's single again. And we're saying it's scary that Kim is single because hello, there's a whole world of other women out there trying to get married. Throw 'em a bone, jeez.

OMG GUYS! We found this hilarious photo of Nick Lachey, Jessica Simpson and (a very denim-ed out) Beyoncé on the set of "TRL" (R.I.P.) with Damien Fahey from way back in 2003, and we HAD to share. My, how times have changed! Nothing in this photo is the same today! Like sand through the hourglass, y'all.

First, we must state the obvious: Nick and Jessica are no longer a thing. After divorcing in 2006, Nick just recently married Vanessa Minnillo, and Jessica's currently planning her own wedding to fiancé Eric Johnson. Second, we don't think these days Beyoncé would be caught dead choosing an outfit quite so... coordinated. I don't know if you guys are up to par with where the former Destiny's Child singer can be found nowadays (running the world), but girlfriend is usually jet-setting around the globe with her rapper/bajillionaire/husband (and Gwyneth Paltrow's BFF) Jay-Z. To think, she was just a normal girl in a Canadian tuxedo a mere eight years ago... #UPGRADE

So, the moral of the story is: Don't ever get photographed. Kidding! The moral of the story is: It Gets Better! Celebrities and non-celebrities alike all experience ups and downs, marriages and divorces, and matching denim outfits. JK again! The real moral is: This pic is hilarious.

Guys, remember the good ol' days when Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony were still a couple? Us too! It was just last week! But alas, relationships come and go. Time marches on! Things change! Etc.! [Insert sad Snoopy GIF.]

Because we haven't been able to stop crying (not really -- we have jobs and pizza and stuff), we figured what better way to exorcise our collective breakup demons than to look at pictures of celebrities who have broken up too. Hence Buzzworthy's Saddest Celebrity Breakups photo gallery!

After the jump, take a look back to see whose splits made us the saddest. And in case you're feeling melancholy about an ex, remember that It Gets Better with the help of these wise words from Destiny's Child: "You thought that I was stressed without ya, but I'm chillin'/Thought I wouldn't sell with out ya, sold nine million." Keep on keepin' on, y'all.

You may have heard that former 98 Degrees singer Jeff Timmons is joining the Chippendales. And, if that were the case, we'd be fist-pumping the air in delight, considering Jeff was always our favorite, even when everyone was all, like, OMG NIIIIICK! C'mon, Nick was (and is) pleasing to the eyes, but we were always on Team Jeff. His smile could light up a room, especially if that room was ours. Light up our room, Jeff, PLEEZ!!!!!1!!!1!

Bad news: Timmons will not be dropping trau. As it turns out, Jeff will only be a guest performer and emcee at the Chippendales shows in Las Vegas, telling Celebuzz that the Chippendales don't go full monty. (Monty means crotch, by the way). "They do musical numbers [now]," he said. "I was asked to come in and, not dance with the guys cause I can't hold a candle to those guys as professional dancers, but to come in and MC the show basically. I sing a couple older numbers and some of my new stuff, and get some new fans acclimated with my new music. It sounds like a fun thing to do."

Jeff, Jeff, Jeff. We get it: 98 Degrees is no more. Drew moved onto "Dancing With The Stars." Nick married Jessica Simpson, then got engaged to Vanessa Minnillo and now he hosts "The Sing-Off." Meanwhile, the other guy is now really good at Angry Birds. We're glad your career is still in tact and that you're remaining proactive in reaching out to all your fans, but let's get real here: You're still SUPER HAWT, to put it lightly. You're going to Vegas. You're joining the Chippendales. To keep it brief, TAKE OFF YOUR SHIRT, BRO. If you really want to keep your fan base interested, just go full throttle. Obviously, you can sing, and that's great, but what would be so bad about going shirtless? Lady Gaga doesn't even wear pants, and she's maintained her dignity!

And if you want, we won't tell anyone, either. You know what they say: What happens in Vegas...

Who's the first person you'd think of to pen a theme song for the 2011 Big East Basketball Championship? Nick Lachey. Obviously.

Nick Lachey wrote the song "Last One Standing" specifically for the Big East championship. Nick, a basketball fan and Cincinnati native said, "I have grown a strong affinity to the Big East since [University of Cincinnati] joined the conference, and think that this song represents the true test that these inspiring student-athletes face by competing in this league." The former 98°-er will perform "Last One Standing" live at the men's basketball championship finals this Saturday.

"Last One Standing" is a new sound for Nick Lachey, and we have to say it's perfect as the theme song for the BIG EAST conference. The thing about theme songs is that they must be able to seamlessly accompany energetic montages of related imagery -- think "Highway To The Dangerzone" from Top Gun or "Supermodel" from Clueless. We can see it now: Just as Nick Lachey is belting out the words, "I won't let the victory slip through my fingers/I'm gonna raise the trophy, let the feeling linger," Famous College Basketball Guy is slow-mo dunking the game-saving two points while the crowd goes wild! Or, like stuffing a basket over a four-door, standard-size sedan. Go, sports!

+ Listen to Nick Lachey's "Last One Standing." SPOOOOOORTS!

Hey guys, how was your Cyber Monday? While you were stocking up on awesome deals, my credit card remained sheathed as I frollicked 'round cyberspace compiling all the things I knew you couldn't miss. Here's what I found.

1.) A very pregnant Mariah Carey spent her Cyber Monday hocking some wares on HSN, including some rhinestone-encrusted stiletto stripper heels, perfect for the mother-to-be on your holiday shopping list. (Jezebel)

2.) To get kids to be all learned and stuff, a bunch of teachers have remade hit songs such as Lady Gaga's very academic "Bad Romance" into history lessons. Teachers, man. They really are the heroes of tomorrow. (YouTube)

3.) Because she doesn't have enough money already, Madonna is opening a string of gyms worldwide. But it seems only already-sexy, beautiful people are allowed in. (New York Daily News)

4.) There is a faraway land called Tajikistan where the people worship unibrows. Yes, unibrows. Someone tell Amanda Peet we found a great spot for her new summer home. Oh snap. (Global Post)

5.) We love Taylor Swift, but this guy DOES NOT. Haters gonna hate. (Deadspin)

6.) Want to see something that will make you hungry? May I present you three squished-face cats contentedly eating a ginormous turkey leg. (Buzzfeed)

7.) Our girl Alexa Chung got a glowing profile in this week's New York Times, because let's face it, little miss knows how to wear the hell out of some clothes. We're all about Alexa's look book slide show. (NYTimes)

8.) Think Anne Hathaway and James Franco are weird picks for Oscar host? I posit Donald Duck is weirder. (nymag)

9.) Do you guys care about Prince William and Kate Middleton? Well, whatever. So the story goes, Will first spotted Kate as she tore up the runway at a student fashion show. Fast forward about 10 years, the couple is engaged, and the see-through lingerie Kate was modeling at the time is now worth $15,000. (PopEater)

10.) Speaking of engagements, here is an up-to-date list of every celebrity that's engaged right now: Chad Ochocinco; Prince William and Kate Middleton; Nick Lachey and Vanessa Manillo; Jessica Simpson and whoever she's with; Jason London (remember that guy?); Dancing With the Stars' Karina Smirnoff; Niecy Nash; and me! Because I'm famous.

Monsters and mortals alike are preparing for the arrival of the Lady Gaga and Beyonce's highly anticipated video for their duet "Telephone"—which should be sometime this week, according to Gagaloo. So exciting!

While I was putting on my Alexander McQueen lobster claw heels this morning, I got to thinking about some of my all-time favorite over-the-top pop duets. Cheesy-yet-timeless, infectious-yet-heartbreaking, I proudly present the best pop duets clips, personally picked and dusted off from the MTV video vault.

"Where You Are" by Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson: Before she was considered "sexual napalm" by certain loud-mouthed guitar god, Jessica Simpson was just a fresh-faced, tuna-loving newlywed. Not only does this video remind me of better, simpler times, but it also makes me realize that music videos need more merry-go-rounds in them.

"Me Against The Music" by Britney Spears and Madonna: Now, I've heard of pole-dancing, table-dancing and chair-dancing but I never heard of wall-dancing until I saw this clip. Kind of gives a new meaning to, "If these walls could talk..."

"Opposites Attract" by Paula Abdul and MC Skat Kat: At the time this video premiered, a carton cat dancing with a human being—or Paula Abdul—was a huge advance in the field of computer animation. Hell, the clip even scored a Grammy in 1991 for "Best Short Form Music Video." Fortunately for us (but unfortunately for Monsieur Skat Kat), digital graphics have come a long way since then. Why, if we were to show this to James Cameron right now, he'd probably laugh up a hairball. No matter, this song is still just as poptastic as it was 20 years ago.
