Week in Review: Demi Moore in Crisis, Heidi and Seal Break Up, Kristin Cavallari Is Pregnant...and Oscar Nominations!

It's been a rough week for some of our favorite celebs.

Sure, we've glimpsed the lineup for our biggest game of the year—the Oscars—and there were was lots of baby bumpin', fun fashion and Glee scoop to keep us pleasantly occupied. And the Screen Actors Guild Awards are Sunday!

But along with the ups came the downs, and we hope that those who did not escape the week unscathed stay strong and remember that plenty of fans are pulling for them.

Here's what happened:

LITTLE GOLD MEN: Awards season is really Oscar season (but be sure to check out all our SAG Awards coverage!), you know? Heading into the glamorous Academy Awards mix on Feb. 26 are Hugo, leading with 11 nominations; The Artist, next with 10; Best Actor nominees Brad Pitt George Clooney; Best Actress front-runners Meryl Streep and Viola Davis; Jonah Hill and Melissa McCarthy—and there's no sign of Madonna.

GETTIN' A LITTLE CRAZY: One day two people are in love and the next day...they're out? Heidi Klum and Seal weren't even on our list of couples not long for this world, so we were as shocked as anybody when they announced their separation. Color us even more surprised, however, when Seal started showing up everywhere, from PBS to Ellen to CNN, telling his side of the (both are still wearing their wedding rings) room-for-a-happy-ending story and, er, promoting his new album.

MOORE PROBLEMS: We wondered what Demi Moore was smoking six years ago when she tied the knot, but now it turns out she may actually have been smoking something! A scary confluence of circumstances landed her in the hospital, prompting concern from as far away as Brazil, where Ashton Kutcher was working and partying with models younger than he is—and that's young! He's back now, though, and is said to be very worried. Demi's 17-year-old daughter Tallulah is staying with dad Bruce Willis while mom, who is now out of the hospital, gets well.

BABY BEAR: Not long after they neared the end zone, Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler is expecting a baby with former Hill person Kristin Cavallari.

WITTY REMARKS: Cynthia Nixon, bald as a cue ball for her role as a cancer patient in Wit on Broadway, had to start the week running (backwards) after her remarks to the New York Times Magazine about choosing to be gay made the rounds. For the record, Nixon has two children with a man she lived with for 15 years, so being with a woman now is her current preference. She did not say that gay people in general are gay by choice. So, now that that's settled, did we just end the controversy?!

FAREWELL: Robert Hegyes, best known for playing smart-mouth Sweathog Juan Epstein on Welcome Back, Kotter, died at 60 of a heart attack...James Farentino, veteran character actor who played on the big screen in The Final Countdown and on the small screen as George Clooney's dad on ER, died at 73.

Oscars Nominations Aftermath: Brad Pitt Arrives—Was It Angelina Jolie or Leonardo DiCaprio Who Got Him There?

George Clooney's favored to win at next month's Oscars, but Brad Pitt's already won.

Here's a post-Oscars nominations look at who's up, who's down, what the Academy's picks mean—and whether they were mean to Mary J. Blige: 

NOMS ETC.: Biggest snubs and surprises

HOTTER

1. Pitt: Once upon a time, Pitt envied Leonardo DiCaprio, who commanded Oscar-nominated biopics (The Aviator) and social dramas (Blood Diamond), while he, Pitt, handled movie-star movies like Troy. "'I want to play more of a man,'" Pitt once complained. Later, he said he realized he had to "live like a man." And so he did. Parenthood  followed, as did a different kind of movie. On Tuesday, he was the face of two Best Picture contenders, and a double nominee, for producing Moneyball, as well as for starring in it with a performance that was unadorned by tics and special effects. In other words, he was honored for playing a man, and living like one—and whether Angelina Jolie got him to that place, or the idea of DiCaprio goaded him there, he got there.

2. Rooney Mara: Hers was the nomination The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo needed almost more than Best Picture. Mission accomplished.  

3. Oscar Movies: If you ever doubted they existed, then Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close's Best Picture nomination ought to have cleared that up. 

4. Early 20th-Century Man and His Quaint Trappings: Last year, the awards were dominated by a movie about a 1930s radio address. This year, they're about to be dominated by one movie about a 1930s boy who reveres early 1900s cinema, and another about a 1920s actor who stars in silents. Ryan Gosling, you and your ultra-modern 1980s Members Only jacket never had a chance. 

5. The Screen Actors Guild Awards: Once again, they were the blueprint for the acting categories, with 17 of their 20 nominees going on to Oscar nominations. Only fools, by which we mean us, would discount so many of their picks.   

6. Mary J. Blige: The denied songstress for The Help called the Academy "mean." Sorry, Albert Brooks and Patton Oswalt, but that was the non-nomination reaction of the day. And the most authentic, too. 

7. The Academy's Music Branch: Sorry, Ms. Blige, but the Original Song category was the most authentic Oscar category of the day. Instead of just penciling in "The Living Proof," Elton John's "Hello Hello"  and other, sorry, unremarkable tunes, voters only passed on what they really, really, really liked.

COLDER

1. The Academy's Music Branch: No "Star Spangled Man" from Captain America?! How could voters not really, really, really like that?

2. The Help: As much as a film can have an off day with a Best Picture nomination, and three acting nods, it had an off day. It seemed poised for even bigger things, but got cut off with shut-outs in the writing, directing and everything-else categories.

3. Comedies: If you ever doubted they are not, ahem, Oscar Movies, then Bridesmaids' Best Picture omission ought to have cleared that up.

4. Motion-capture: Back when he was stumping for Avatar, James Cameron said voters just didn't get the technology, and, judging by the lack of support for The Adventures of Tintin and Rise of the Planet of the Apes' Andy Serkis, they still don't. 

5. Rivalries: Pitt's only got nice things to say about Clooney, and vice versa? The same with Viola Davis and Meryl Streep? This kind of level-headed thinking is all good for humanity, but it stinks for the Oscar race. 

6. Steven Soderbergh: Two days after his Haywire fizzled at the box office, Moneyball, a movie he was supposed to direct, but didn't, starred with six nominations.

7. Everybody Nominated for Original Score Except The Artist's Ludovic Bource: Ignoring that it is just an honor to be nominated, it's gotta suck to know you have to lose—have to—to the guy who single-handledly prevented a silent movie from being totally, creepily silent. 

SOME TEMPERATURE IN BETWEEN HOT AND COLD

1. Steven Spielberg: He willed War Horse into the Best Picture race; he couldn't impose his will in Animated Feature for Tintin.

2. DiCaprio: He just about leads the league in not getting nominated, so his snub for J. Edgar isn't so much a comment on his juice, or lack thereof, as more of the same. Maybe Pitt, or even Jolie, can give him a pep talk?
