Eddie Murphy's "symbolic" marriage to Tracey Edmonds may have only lasted a couple of weeks, but he's not wallowing at home binging on stale wedding cake. The A-lister appeared in the mood to socialize Saturday night when he surfaced in Las Vegas for the opening of the Bellagio's new hot spot, The Bank. According to People, Murphy arrived with an entourage 30 strong and focused much of his attention on a female member of his group. The Evian-sipping, sunglasses- and beret-sporting star supposedly rubbed her leg and waved her hand in the air during an upbeat song. Later, Eddie and his companion were spied clasping digits as they headed into Privé, where they hung out at a VIP table amid an army of security. Meanwhile, details continue to emerge on what caused his non-legally binding union with Edmonds to collapse, with family tensions on their wedding day purportedly playing a major role. "A fight broke out between the moms and then Tracey and Eddie," a source tattles to Us, with a snitch adding to People, "[Just before the wedding], there was a huge argument, and words were said and Eddie took his mom's side." As for the 13.69-carat yellow Cartier diamond engagement ring Eddie slipped on Tracey's finger, a source close to the ersatz bride tells People she kept it.

Is Harry Potter flying a Firebolt built for one? Britain's News of the World claims Daniel Radcliffe's fledgling romance with his former "Equus" cast mate Laura O'Toole has fizzled faster than day-old Butterbeer. "Daniel and I are still good friends and have a good time when we see each other," the actress is quoted as telling the tabloid. "But we just have to be realistic." The erstwhile wizard, who is expected to reprise his skin-heavy "Equus" role on Broadway this fall, was first linked to O'Toole in November, when they were spotted perambulating near his London home.

There's nothing like a walk with some cute dogs and even cuter kids to take your mind off your troubles. Jake Gyllenhaal, who has remained out of the public eye since Heath Ledger's passing, stepped out on Saturday for a stroll in a Los Angeles park with sweetheart Reese Witherspoon, her tykes, Ava, 8, and Deacon, 4, and their respective pooches. Unfortunately, paparazzi were on hand to snap the low-key family outing, with the couple doing their best to keep their faces out of the line of fire. The actor has been in New Mexico filming the drama "Brothers," with the production reportedly increasing security last week to ensure his privacy.

Don't believe those whispers that Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel are on the outs. Rumors of a rift began bubbling after the crooner was supposedly spied out sans his shapely squeeze -- and with a wandering eye -- at New York hot spot Tenjune Saturday night. But it turns out he was nowhere near the club in question, although he was thisclose to Biel. The duo was snapped that very evening looking lovey-dovey in London, where the actress is filming the romantic comedy, "Easy Virtue."

In related news, after a busy week spent unleashing her legal pit bulls over rumors she and Dallas Cowboys beau Tony Romo were on the brink of implosion, Jessica Simpson apparently decided to huddle up for some quality couple time. According to Perez Hilton, the Texas sweethearts enjoyed a romantic weekend in Rancho Mirage, Calif.

Also enjoying some one-on-one time: Leonardo DiCaprio and model Bar Refaeli, who were caught by paparazzi dining a deux in Beverly Hills, Calif., on Saturday. The actor, who reportedly took a brief break from the leggy blonde late last year before reconciling and ringing in the New Year with a hot and heavy kiss, had a chilly close encounter with former squeeze Gisele Bundchen during a recent night out in New York.
