One of Hollywood's most sizzling couples have decided to call it quits, ironically on the day that The Break-Up opens in theaters. Perennial sexiest man alive Matthew McConaughey and his sultry co-star in Sahara, Penelope Cruz are no longer an item.

The two started dating shortly after production on the film wrapped, but now their busy work schedules are being blamed for fizzling the romance. This isn't the first leading man that Penelope has dated. She and Tom Cruise were a well-publicized item after meeting on the set of Vanilla Sky.
