You know that sensation when you find out that your favorite celebrity has broken up with so-and-so and moved on to what’s-his-face and you’re like “omigod, she’s dating who!?” because it's surprisingly worse or ridiculously better than the last guy...?

These are the celebs who got out of one high-profile relationship and made a serious UPGRADE or DOWNGRADE in their next relationship.

George Clooney: George Clooney was with Elisabetta Canalis for several years. She is stunning, European and way too young for Mr. Clooney. So perfect. Now Clooney is dating Stacy Keibler, an ex-pro wrestler who used to parade around the wrestling ring with the stage name, “Miss Handcock.” DOWNGRADE

Blake Lively: Blake Lively was in a long term relationship with her Gossip Girl co-star Penn Badgley for several years. Since their break-up she’s gone on to date Leo Dicaprio and Ryan Reynolds. In that order (not at the same time, ya pervs). From a TV actor to a movie star, I’m sorry, two movie stars, that’s an UPGRADE.

Pretty sure Twitters creators never thought their social networking site would become the source for public celebrity feuding, but somehow it has. In Hollywood, celebrities attack their enemies by getting on their smart phones and type all the virtual smack they want.

The most recent celebrities to verbal spar on the internet include Chris Brown vs. Odd Future, Holly Madison vs. Krystal Harris and Lil Kim vs Nicki Minaj vs Keyshia Cole?

Crystal Harris claims her and Hef are still on good terms after she canceled their wedding just days before they were set to walk down the aisle—but Holly Madison isn’t buying it.

Crystal spent what would have been her wedding day in Vegas partying it up with Heidi Montag at Wet Republic, something that clearly irritated Holly.

"That's a new low...

Sources close to Harris say she was sick of her “couple hundred dollar” weekly allowance from Playboy and wanted to focus on her music career.

Crystal apparently felt she “couldn’t be married to Hef and have a successful music career.”

Most likely, she found out what “pre-nup” meant. Along with a handful of celebs, Hefner’s ex-girlfriends have been tweeting him some support. Here’s what they had to say:

Holly Madison has the worst luck with men. She just split from her boyfriend, All Time Low guitarist Jack Barakat, after dating him for seven months and is now looking for Mr. Right. Seriously. She actually said that.

Holly said, "I would love to meet my soul mate. I'm always kind of keeping my eyes open for somebody. I'm happy single, but I'm happy in both cases. I feel like I definitely thrive more as a human and I'm more successful when I'm single."

Lets take a look a the last decade of Holly's dating life. She was with 84 year-old Hugh Hefner for seven years. They split because he wouldn't marry her. She moved to Vegas and dated Criss Angel for four months. He made the relationship disappear.

And she met her last boyfriend on Twitter. Seriously Holly do I need to spell it out for you? You pick the wrong men! Doesn't this woman have any friends? She needs some serious help in the dating department. Apparently she'll date any Joe Shmoe that tweets to her. Time to step it up!
Holly Madison isn't the only bunny pissed at Hugh Hefner for suddenly getting engaged to girlfriend Crystal Harris--Kendra Wilkinson is disappointed too.

When Kendra found out Hef was engaged she congratulated him, but just like Holly, she was pretty disappointed.

"We all thought it was going to be Holly! He's like any man - he was having fun and wasn't ready. I guess he was too young!"

Too young? Honey he's ancient!

Earlier this week Holly slammed Hef and claimed Crystal has ulterior motives. She said, "I've seen a lot of girls try to date Hef, and some have ulterior motives. I don't think it would be a bad idea for him to get to know her a little better. I think it's possible Crystal could break Hef's heart. They could end up divorcing, and she could take half his money."

The poor guy is so old he can barely walk at this point, let him have his flavor of the month. I highly doubt that wedding will ever take place and if it does, you can bet there's going to be an iron clad prenup!

Holly Madison has her claws out and she's ready to scratch Hugh Hefner's fiancé’s eyes out.

Hef proposed to his now fiancé Crystal Harris over Christmas and Holly, who dated him for seven years, thinks he could have done way better.

“I’m not jealous that he’d marry someone else. I just don’t want it to be a girl who’s using him to start her career,” she tells Life & Style. “Basically, I think he could do better than Crystal.”

“I’d like to see Hef settle down. I just want it to be with the right person, and I feel like he’s making a hasty decision. I’m not sure Crystal is the best thing for him.”

And more than anything she wants to make sure Hef knows exactly what he's getting himself into.

She added, “No one knows much about her. Plus, she’s very young, probably too young to settle down. I’ve seen a lot of girls try to date Hef, and some have ulterior motives. I don’t think it would be a bad idea for him to get to know her a little better. I think it’s possible Crystal could break Hef’s heart. They could end up divorcing, and she could take half his money.”

Holly also mentioned that she's going to show up to the Playhouse Mansion and check up on them herself. I love Holly as much as the next person, but I smell jealously all over this one. What do you think of Hef's new fiancé? Is it love or just another bottle blonde looking for a lifelong meal ticket?
Holly Madison may seem like she’s enjoying single life on the Vegas Strip, but she’s ready to be a mom!

In a new interview with E!, Madison's assistant Angel Porrino says Holly is always in total mom ode when she’s with her son. "She definitely wants to get married and have babies in the near future," Porrino said.

Holly Madison Moving in With Benji Madden

"I know she really really wants it. She looks at Roman and bonds with him and I know she'd be a great mom and a great wife. She's ready to settle down."

But not just with anyone! Holly’s friend Lara Croft said, "She's super busy and she can't have somebody up her ass 24/7," said pal Laura Croft. "If she dates somebody, they've got to be successful and have their own life."

Well, we do know she’s dating Benji Madden because she tweets about him every five seconds. So is he Mr. Right? Holly’s Peepshow co-star Josh Strickland says, "They are so cute and cool together and he couldn't be cooler and a sweeter guy. But they don't live in the same city and he was doing his album and now he's on tour so it does complicate things. I guess the attitude is we'll see what happens."

In fact, we hear multiple suitors will appear on Holly’s World which premieres June 13th. One thing is for sure, nothing has changed since Holly has left the Playboy mansion—she still wants to get married and get knocked up! "She just turned 30 and I think that clock is ticking for her," Strickland said. "She definitely wants to have kids and settle down and find that right person."
Holly Madison and Benji Madden are apparently still together and getting serious. They are so serious that they are reportedly considering buying a house together. Yup, that's just after three months of dating!

A source told In Touch Weekly magazine: “Benji cares very much for Holly. They have been talking about living together.”

Holly currently lives in Las Vegas as she stars in the burlesque show ‘Peepshow,' so we're not sure how they would live together if she's in Las Vegas 6 days out of the week.

We're calling B.S. on this story. Just because they are having fun and flirting together does not mean they are about to buy a house together and start a family. What do you guys think? B.S or not?

It’s just not the same in the Playboy mansion without Kendra Wilkinson, Bridget Marquardt, and Holly Madison.

Hugh Hefner replaced the three Girls Next Door ladies last year with new girls, but the relationship has already gone kaput!

Hef twittered about the break-up, saying, “The Shannon Twins are growing up. They’re moving to the Playmate House with my blessing so they will be free to do other things.”

Hef doesn’t seem too upset about it. He told E! News, “They’ve been hanging out with a lot of the other Playmates and they see these girls traveling across the country to do promotion. They would like to be doing that, too.”

“When they thought about it, they thought it was a good idea,” he said. “They will now be friends, but they won’t be defined as the girlfriends.”

We know part of being Hugh Hefner is having young girls play the role of his live-in lovers, but we think he’s getting a little too old for that! Maybe it’s time for him to just be on his own!
