Wow, it looks like Robert Pattinson had quite the wild weekend. He was caught living it up in Los Angeles, and even socked a security guard in the face as he woozily exited one party scene. Considering Rob has gotten a bachelor pad in Beverly Hills, and is hanging with a bunch of new women (Mischa Barton, Katy Perry, Michelle Rodriguez, etc.), and is now apparently raising the roofs on every club in town, it's almost enough to make you wonder if some party animal took over sweet, lovable Rob's body.

Hollywood Life reports that the latest gang Rob was with when he cuffed a security guard was an "unfamiliar" one and that his usually low-key ways have given rise to some disturbing bad boy antics.

Well, this is all to be expected. Rob is following the post-breakup template to a T. A source tells Hollywood Life:

Rob is missing Kristen like crazy. He thought by moving to Beverly Hills and hanging out with his new friends it would take his mind off Kristen, but it has done the complete opposite. His distractions are only making him miss Kristen more. He is lonely and sad. He’s in a new home, but it doesn’t matter, having Kristen not around isn’t the same. He used to laugh with Kristen and things just aren’t the same with her not around.

Ugh, isn't that always the way when you break up with someone? You're miserable in the relationship, so you get out. Then, you expect that you'll be thrilled and happy! Instead, you're miserable in a whole new unexpected way.

Often the solution seems to be to drown your sorrows in booze and bury your lonelies in another body (hopefully responsibly in both cases). But those only serve to make you forget HIM or HER for a moment. And then the memory of HIM or HER comes rushing back even stronger than before.

The reality is that partying and hooking up is like putting a Band-Aid on a gaping, bloody, festering wound. It only works for like a microsecond.

Unfortunately getting over someone takes a lot of time. A lot of work. A lot of healing. And, yes, a lot of sitting around crying and missing that person and mourning your dreams and what you once had. And it sucks.

Partying just delays the inevitable. But sometimes the pain is so bad, that a little delay can be a good thing. So let's cut Rob some slack for now. And hope he's not still doing the same thing in a year, or he'll be the next one on Oprah Winfrey's couch.

Have you ever partied hard after a breakup?

Demi Lovato Chides Miley Cyrus About Partying, Because THAT Always Helps

If you've been feeling a little worried about Miley Cyrus and her hard-partying ways, you have a kindred soul in Demi Lovato. Lovato, who met Cyrus on the set of Hannah Montana six years ago, isn't too sure about her friend's laissez-faire approach to twerking her way through life while gleefully admitting she's often too baked to know what she's talking about.

The things is, I'm not too sure Lovato's decision to share her motherly concern about Miley Cyrus via MTV News was the best way to show her support. Nor am I confident Miley's exactly open to criticism from someone who's basically become the poster child for stone cold sobriety.

I have all sorts of admiration for Demi Lovato's ongoing honesty about the crap she's gone through in recent years. She's battled an eating disorder, self-injury, suicidal feelings (which started when she was just 7 years old), bipolar disorder, self-medicating with drugs and alcohol, and judging by the lyrics in her song "Warrior," sexual abuse.

It's not surprising that she's no longer on the same wavelength as wild child Miley, which Lovato confessed to MTV News:

She knows how I feel about the whole partying thing. I love her to death and I'm always like, 'Just be careful' and she's like, 'Dude, I'm chilling. It's fine.' But I care for her so much that I'm so protective, but she's good. She's got a good head on her shoulders.

I believe that Lovato cares for her friend, but it seems like kind of a weird move to publicly share that you disapprove of someone's partying. Plus, her follow-up comments about Miley's party anthem "We Can't Stop" sound downright passive-aggressive:

I think it's a good song... It's a song a lot of people have fun to and if people are enjoying it, then great.

Translation: Look, if people like an inappropriate song that references "dancing with Molly," it's their funeral. Have fun getting addicted to ecstasy, everyone.

Okay, that might not be entirely fair, but I imagine that it's just kind of hard for Lovato to be asked about her pop-star peers when she feels like she's in such a different place. As she said of her friends Cyrus and Selena Gomez turning 21,

They can turn 21 and have their turn-21st-birthday. I don't think that I – I just don't put myself in those situations where I'm going to be at those 21st birthdays. I don't go to clubs. I just know it's something I can't do without being triggered. And that's okay.

Sobriety is hard enough when you're years past the partying stage, being just twenty and living the celebrity lifestyle must put Lovato in a state of constant vigilance. It's got to be hard as hell, and sometimes a certain sense of evangelicalism is the only way to get past all those temptations.

But for the people who are enjoying their less-than-perfectly-responsible years, I'm sure it's equally hard to hear the criticism. More power to Lovato for wanting to protect her buddy and all, but it seems like she'd do better to keep her concerns a little more private.

What do you think about Demi Lovato calling Miley Cyrus out for partying? Do you think it crossed a friendship line?
