Man, that arm band tattoo looks so stupid! That was the worst tattoo craze – if you ask me.

Welcome to today’s episode of Splitting With the Stars.
E! just learned that the dance-happy duo of Karina Smirnoff and Maksim Chmerkovskiy have uncoupled and called off their long-pending nuptials.
“I am confirming that they did indeed break up,” Karina’s rep tells me. No word yet from Team Max.
Word of the split comes just a month after they debuted on Broadway in Burn the Floor. In retrospect we may have missed signs of trouble back on the eve of that show’s debut, when they told us their busy schedule, including the upcoming season of DWTS, would delay their vow swapping until next summer.
“We don’t plan,” Maks said. “We’re [rehearsing] 14 hours a day.”
“The only thing that we’ve decided on is next year in June,” Karina added. “We were supposed to pick the place, but we’ve never actually had the time to go further.”
“We don’t feel like we’re messing out on the wedding dress fittings,” Karina continued (perhaps somewhat ominously in retrospect). “As long as we’re together, tying the knot is a plus. It’s something extra.”
Or not.
The cast of “Sex And The City 2″ was finally complete with the arrival of Kristin Davis on set in New York City, New York on September 8, 2009 and the four girls including Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nixon and Sarah Jessica Parker happily pose for photographs in between takes.

At this time last year, Rose McGowan told Pop Tarts how excited she was to be kicking butt and working under the direction of her fiancé Robert Rodriguez in the she-devil comic book adaptation “Red Sonja”, but it turns out a serious injury has brought the production to a standstill.
“I had wrist and elbow surgery and they took part of my elbow out. I had really bad nerve damage from doing stunts – I do a lot of my own stunts,” McGowan recently told Tarts. “I could no longer use my arm, but now I can hold a fork and drive so we’re working our way up. It’ll probably be another six months of rehab, but It’s the price you pay for being really limber and being able to do back flips!”
And despite the success the 35-year-old has garnered throughout her career with roles in “Grindhouse,” “The Black Dahlia” and “Scream,” she initially thought being an actress was a pretty pathetic profession.
“I wasn’t trying to be an actor, I was standing outside of a gym waiting for my friend to come out and this woman he knew kept saying, ‘She should be in this movie blah blah blah’ and I was like, ‘Gross, I don’t want to be an actor! Ew!’ and then I found out they would pay me enough money for a down payment on an apartment,” McGowan said. “Otherwise I would have had to go back and live with dad in Seattle. The film, ‘The Doomed Generation,’ became this huge cult movie and was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award and I’ve been following the Yellow Brick Road ever since…”
