Mila Kunis and Macaulay Culkin split
By Liz Kelly
Mila Kunis in 2009's "Extract." (Miramax Film Corp.) Macaulay Culkin is, we presume, home alone after a rep for "Black Swan" co-star Mila Kunis confirmed to the New York Post's Page Six that the couple has broken up. "The split was amicable, and they remain close friends," her rep said in a statement. And they aren't the first celeb couple to call it quits in the new year.

Not one, but two bold-name couples have gone their separate ways. First, "Dexter" stars Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter have severed their two-year year marriage. The former couple's reps released this statement to Entertainment Weekly: "Having been separated for some time, Jennifer Carpenter and Michael C. Hall have filed for divorce." They added that the split was amicable. Hall and Carpenter met on the set of the Showtime drama on which Carpenter plays Hall's foster sister. Earlier this year, Hall was successfully treated for Hodgkin's lymphoma. You may remember him accepting a Golden Globe last January wearing a ski cap worn to cover hair loss from chemotherapy. Meanwhile, the Disney-facilitated romance between "High School Musical" co-stars Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens has come to an end....
