Brangelina, Bennifer, and Calohn...

If I get my wish and start dating John Krasinski, our couple nickname would be "Calohn". What would you and your significant other's nickname be? Find out with USA Today's Nickname-o-Matic.

Despite all the Anna Nicole coverage, other things are going on in the world. Here are some highlights:

- Scarlett Johansson is now being linked with another hot guy in Hollywood... Ryan Reynolds. They have been seen eating together several times in Manhattan and one source says, "They were definitely holding hands." Reynolds and his fiancee of three years, Alanis Morissette, ended their engagement in February.

- Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy have been seen canoodling various places recently. I can see the connection there. At least he always has somebody to borrow eyeliner from.

- The Live Earth lineup has been announced. Tickets are available starting Monday, April 16. Kanye West, Kelly Clarkson, and Bon Jovi are among the acts. Red Hot Chili Peppers will only be playing in London. Speaking of charitable causes, anybody want to buy me a ticket to London?

- Snoop Dogg was charged with two felonies today for his arrests for gun and drug possession. He could be in jail for four years if convicted. For shizzle.

- He may as well just rent a cell. Jason Wahler of "Laguna Beach" was arrested AGAIN on Sunday morning. This is the fourth time he has been arrested in nine months. He was arrested in a Seattle hotel after police found him "very intoxicated" and wrestling with another male in the lobby.

- "Dancing with the Stars" host Samantha Harris is expecting a baby.

- Elisabeth Shue has been practicing her moves on the tennis court. The actress, who most of our generation knows from Adventures in Babysitting, hopes to one day compete professionally. She says, "I've been training so hard, now I feel like more of a tennis player than an actress."

Question: I've heard rumblings that John Krasinski is dating (and has dated before "The Office") his coworker, Rashida Jones (?). What do you know?

John and Rashida did date once. It breaks my heart to know that he wasn't forever pining away for me. But yes, it is true. They DID date (I'm pretty sure it was spring 2006) and some say he is the reason she got the job because they were dating when she was hired. However, I'm fairly certain they are no longer dating. And it is amicable. How could you ever be mad at John? He's too damn cute!

But here is what Rashida said in the December 11, 2006 issue of Us Weekly:

Question by Us: Last year, you dated John Krasinski in real life. Awkward?

Rashida: He’s one of my closest friends. He was incredibly supportive of me getting this job, and for the most part, if you go out with somebody and it doesn’t work out, there’s always a reason why you liked the person to begin with.

Also, did you know that Rashida is the love child of Peggy Lipton and Quincy Jones? True story.
