In a development of excruciatingly unsurprising nature, folk-country-rocker Ryan Adams and singer/actress Mandy Moore have officially ended their seven month relationship.
As is sometimes the case, the split was not caused by a difference of opinions or loss of that lovin’ feeling. According to a statement made by the “Gonna Make You Love Me” singer, the two were forced apart by the incessant encroachment of the dreaded paparazzi.
“Unfortunately I am allergic to paparazzi and have found the best antidote to that sort of nonsense is staying behind the guitar and typewriter, staying close to my support group of friends and band mates and not engaging in activities that prevent me from taking care of myself or others,” he says.
“I found the entire speculation and subsequent photographs and intrusions terrifying and only wish to live as normal a life as possible, so that I might always remain punk as f*** AND sober,” Adams added.
To those who have never seen pictures of the two together, the breakup may be a bit startling. To the rest of the world, it’s been a foregone conclusion for some time.
Adams has now become another in the laundry list of celebs dispatched at the hands of Mandy Moore, including Wilmer Valderrama, Zach Braff and U.S. tennis star Andy Roddick.
