WHAT WOULD JESUS DO?... DUMP MADONNA
Gossip sources say Madonna and her young beau, model Jesus Luz, have called it quits, citing their age difference and busy schedules.
A source says, "It not only was totally amicable, but it was Luz who initiated the split. Apparently, the 23-year-old Brazilian realized their age difference (she's 51) and overall lack of mutual interests nixed a long-term relationship."
Madonna began dating Jesus after they met at a December 2008 photo-shoot for W magazine - just weeks before her divorce from director Guy Ritchie was finalized.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT WHAT WENT ON BEHIND THE SCENES AT THE RECORDING OF "WE ARE THE WORLD"
"We Are the World" was rerecorded by 80 artists the other night in the same studio where the original song was cut 25 years ago.
Pink, Natalie Cole, Kanye West, Jennifer Hudson, Celine Dion, Brian Wilson and others stood shoulder-to-shoulder and sang to raise money for Haiti.
Lionel Richie said: "This one, the enthusiasm, I've never seen anything like it."
"We Are the World - 25 for Haiti" will premiere next week during the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics on NBC.
After the artists finished recording together, Lionel Richie and Quincy Jones worked with a chosen group of soloists, including Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger.
At one point during a break, the musicians broke out into an a cappella version of "Lean on Me."
Barbra Streisand was seen recording her solo over and over. She was totally into the recording process and stopped only to correct her pitch.
Later, a who's who of rappers, including Snoop Dogg, LL Cool J and Wyclef Jean, recorded a verse written by Black Eyed Peas frontman and producer will.i.am.
Lil Wayne said he was blessed to record the song but was surprised when he was told he would do Bob Dylan's part from the original.
The whole thing was shot using 3-D cameras and a few people even dressed in head-to-toe green and stood next to the celebrities. That way, when the video comes out, people will be able to insert themselves into the crowd.
Al Jardine approached Enrique Iglesias about singing a Spanish song on his new album. India Arie said she was just coming off a three-month writing sabbatical and was happy to return to work. Akon's mother is a fan of "American Idol," and got to meet Randy Jackson.

FOX HAS HAD "CONVERSATIONS" WITH CONAN O'BRIEN
It's been less than two weeks since CONAN O'BRIEN reached an exit agreement with NBC . . . so maybe it isn't surprising that there's still no serious talks between Conan and Fox. But that doesn't mean their interest is waning.
Yesterday, Fox czar Rupert Murdoch said, quote, "Sure, there have been some conversations . . . [but] no real negotiations. If the programming people can show us we can do it . . . and make a profit . . . we would do it in a flash."
You'd think that Conan would be a HOT commodity for Fox . . . especially considering how his fan base seems a little juiced-up after the whole NBC fall-out.
But Murdoch says that the syndicated stuff they're running from 11:00 to 11:30 P.M. is very profitable for their affiliates. Of course, Conan could air at 11:30, but then he'd lose the head start he could have on JAY LENO and DAVID LETTERMAN.
