Jenny McCarthy has finally moved on after splitting from Jim Carrey after years together. According to PEOPLE, she has been quietly dating Jason Toohey, 35, a Las Vegas resident and former fitness model. Even though they’ve only been dating for two months, they’re temporarily living together.

“I’ve been living in Vegas for about a month. My house is under construction right now in L.A., so I very well could be here until it’s done,” McCarthy, 37, told PEOPLE at Saturday’s Midsummer Night’s Dream party at Las Vegas’s Palms Casino Resort. “It’s been awesome here.”

While Jenny isn’t saying much, her rep has confirmed that the two are dating.

Good for her!

Could Jenny McCarthy be taking over where Oprah left off? NY Post claims Harpo has a development deal lined up with the actress-turned-activist.

“The Oprah Winfrey Show” is going off the air at the end of her 25th season next year. And McCarthy — the 1993 Playboy Playmate of the Year who became an activist and author after her son, Evan, 8, was diagnosed withautism — has a development deal with Winfrey’s Harpo Productions.

“We do not have anyone taking over for Oprah,” a Harpo spokeswoman told us. “We do have a development deal with Jenny McCarthy. We are exploring possibilities across a number of platforms.” Oprah is launching her OWN network and might want McCarthy’s talk show on her schedule.

What do you think of Jenny getting her own show?

According to Star magazine, Jim Carrey gave ex-girlfriend, Jenny McCarthy a nice parting gift when they broke up: $25 million!

“Jenny came to the realization that Jim would never marry her just a few months after they started dating,” a source tells Star. “So she told him she needed an arrangement that would insure she wouldn’t have to worry about her future or the future of Evan, her now 7-year-old autistic son from a previous marriage.”

Jim, 48, came to an agreement with Jenny: he’d pay Jenny $5 million for every year they were together. But the cash came with one condition, says an insider. Jenny, 37, had to promise never to publicly reveal personal stuff about Jim or his strange habits – of which there are many!

“If Jim doesn’t like you, he won’t even be civil toward you,” the insider tells Star. “He’ll ignore you and refuse to shake your hand – and stare at you like you’re from outer space! He also locks himself in a room with a statue of Buddha and obsessively prays for hours on end. And sometimes, he treated Jenny like a servant, barking at her to get him a drink or turn down the music. It was embarrassing to watch…

[Jim]… would also stay in bed for days, says the source, “not changing his clothes, eating or answering his phone. Still, Jenny would open the curtains, get him to shower and cheer him up. I don’t know how she did it.”

Now, with her big payday, the source says, “Jenny will always have nothing but positive things to say about him.”

A bundle of sexual assault allegations against Steven Seagal are revealing what may be a long-term pattern of inappropriateness. CBS Crimesider has dug up a 1998 interview with Jenny McCarthy — who says that during a casting call for ‘Under Siege 2,’ she was asked to strip and threatened not to tell anyone.

“I go inside Seagal’s office, and he’s by himself and says, ‘Sit on my couch,” McCarthy told Movieline magazine in ’98. “Then he said, ‘Take off your dress.’ I just started crying and said, ‘Rent my Playboy video, you a*****e!’ and ran out to the car.”

CBS also reports in 1998, nine women told Penthouse magazine about their experiences of Seagal sexually harassing them. Yikes.

News recently broke that Seagal’s reality series, ‘Steven Seagal Lawman,’ will be shelved as a result of the scandal.

Jim Carrey’s PR rep instructed his client and Jenny McCarthy to Tweet the news of their split yesterday only after discovering the story had leaked to Star magazine, according to the tabloid’s editor.

“We put the story to bed Monday, and when his rep [Marleah Leslie] called our Los Angeles office to confirm that it was on a cover box, she told Jim to send the Tweet,” editor-in-chief Candace Trunzo told PopEater.

The new issue of Star, which only became available on Wednesday, attributed the split to the pressure Carrey’s admitted battle with depression had put on the relationship. It also claimed the couple had already trialed “mini-breaks.”

But the use of Twitter as a PR tool to get ahead of the story–and the impact of Carrey’s depression–are the missing pieces in the surprise conclusion of a seemingly-solid Hollywood union that had baffled observers.

University of Washington sociology professor and relationship expert Dr. Pepper Schwartz said the lack of “heat and anger” indicated by coordinated Tweets suggested the relationship dissolved over long-standing issues, rather than something explosive like an affair.
