Her Royal Hotness Pippa Middleton Is Single & Ready To Mingle

Bachelors of the world, be advised: Pippa Middleton is single and ready to mingle. She and boyfriend Alex Somethingorother have split up. Suddenly, thanks to that famous bottom and her connection to Princess Shinylocks, Pippa is the most eligible bachelorette on planet Earth. And since getting married is the most important thing a woman can do with her life, the media will be tracking Pippa's dating life and road to the altar. Prince Harry, are you ready to step up?

Pippa and Prince Harry have "chemistrry," sources say. Recently, the two had afternoon tea together at a pub in Chelsea, and Harry reportedly "interests" Pippa. It is on, people. On. (Chelsy Davy is off partying in Ibiza.) [Now Magazine]

Pippa was an English Literature student when she attended Edinburgh University, but even more important: She wore interesting clothes in fashion shows. Here are some old modeling pictures! [Daily Mail]

Here, Pippa is called "Her Royal Hotness." Part of me hopes she shaves her head, gets a few piercings and falls in love with a plump half-Jewish, half-black lady named LaToya Rosenberg. Just so we could witness the haughty Brit publications (and the royal family) go completely apoplectic. [Herald Sun]

Bonus royals news: Prince Harry and Prince William faced off in a polo match on Saturday. William's team won. This is the part in the fairy tale when the new Duchess turns on Harry, shouting, "Off with his head." Also: Will Pippa date a loser? [People]

Lady Gaga just finished the Monster Ball tour — which grossed over $250 million (to become the highest-grossing tour by a debut headlining act and one of the biggest grossing tours of all time) — and is now planning a Born This Way Tour. She says: "If you're running a marathon, and you're about to cross the finish line, you don't stop and say, 'Oh, once I cross it, it's over.' You run as fast as you can to get there as quickly as you can. So I guess, for me, it's about how many marathons can I run? How many dreams can I make true? Now, not for me, but for my fans." She plans to start rehearsals by the end of the year and begin the tour in 2012. [ONTD via MTV UK]

Also, Gaga writes songs in a dream state: "I just have to [write songs]. Sometimes in the middle of night when I'm falling asleep I have a lot of ideas, then wake up and record them into my phone and send it to my producers and then I fall asleep." [Contact Music]

Speaking of Kim Kardashian, it says here that her proposal was "caught on camera." Can you imagine that? There just happened to be cameras! What luck! [Daily Mail]
