Chelsea Handler's break up with 50 Cent has left the rapper/actor with a broken heart.
The pair made headlines in October last year when they were rumored to be dating after they were photographed together at a club in New Orleans.
UsMagazine.com is reporting that a source said Handler, 35, dumped 50 Cent just before the holidays, leaving the 35-year-old rapper "heartbroken."
The source said 50 Cent was determined to win her back and, "spent Christmas sending her gifts, but she sent them back. She put a note on one that said, 'I can buy my own gifts.'"
Handler has denied that there was anything going on with the couple even after she tweeted an intimate photo of them cuddling in bed, with Handler planting a big fat kiss on 50 Cent.
Along side the photo she said, "I don't know why anyone thinks I would ever date a rapper."
But when she was asked about their romance in early January, Handler told UsMagazine.com, "People still think we're dating? No! Really?" she continues, "He's sweet, though. I love him, but we're not dating."
Handler goes on, "I don't know if I can handle him, to be honest. I like to have fun and I'm really trying to not get into anything too serious."
Yesterday we reported that Handler was seen with her rumored new beau, hotelier Andre Balazs, who has a history of dating high-profile women, from Uma Thurman to Courtney Love.

50 Cent, Floyd Mayweather Jr. Launch Film Production Company
Party like it's your birthday, because 50 Cent has some exciting news: the rapper and boxer Floyd Mayweather, Jr. have announced the launch their own film production company at the Sundance Film Festival on Saturday.
Fiddy, born Curtis Jackson, told MTV News he hit the club this weekend to celebrate, Mayweather Productions, the birth of his new collaboration with the champion boxer,
"I look forward to being a part of some really great projects that have the kind of artistic integrity I'll be proud of, even when I'm gone, because these pictures will be here even after I'm gone." said the "Candy Store" rapper at a press conference in Utah.
Acting isn't new for Fiddy; the rapper has stared in films "Righteous Kill" and "Twelve," and even runs a film firm, Cheetah Vision. But his partnership with Mayweather is a step towards what might be a more permanent industry for him.
"I'm sure in the future, I won't be able to rap forever... so we can do different things," 50 said. "This is exciting, you know, the beginning, the birth of a collaboration between be and Floyd."
The production company is brand-spanking new, so Mayweather said the first step is just shooting the breeze with his new partner.
"We're going to do what we normally do," Mayweather said. "Sit in a room and brainstorm and try to come up with new ideas, be creative and just work together and try to be positive. That's the main thing. It's about working hard, being positive, and working together."
And what would a proper launch be without a party?
"I got a dinner tongiht," 50 Cent told MTV News on Saturday, "And we're going to an actual nightclub. We're just celebrating the launch of Mayweather Productions."

Report: 50 Cent Hauls In $8.7 Million Via Twitter Over the Weekend
50 Cent made a lot sense, financially, on Twitter over the weekend. According to the New York Post, the rapper saw the value of his 30 million shares in a penny-stock company increase by $8.7 million after sending out a series of tweets urging his 3.8 million followers to invest, which sent the price of the stock skyrocketing (relatively speaking).
The penny-stock company also owns TV Goods, a small marketing company ran by former 'Shark Tank' star Kevin Harrington. The Post even goes as far to call H&H a "money-losing venture," but once 50 Cent started telling his Twitter followers to invest, the company's stock rose from 10 cents to 39 cents.
The stock opened at 41 cents on Tuesday, reports The Huffington Post.
50 Cent "received 30 million shares of H&H in a private placement last October, including a series of warrants granting him the opportunity to cash in as the stock rises: at 15 cents, 25 cents or -- no kidding -- 50 cents," according to the New York Post.
One of the catches is that the company is selling the star's trademarked sunglasses, Sleek by 50, ensuring 50 Cent equity in the company. He also used the marketing of his sunglasses to sell the stock to his followers, according to StreetInsider.com.
"HNHI is the stock symbol for TVG, Sleek by 50 is one of the 15 products this year. If you get in technically I work for you. BIG MONEY," 50 Cent tweeted, according to screen shots on mediabistro, but later removed from his page.
Along with this and a flurry of other promotional tweets, 50 finally decided to back off toward the end of the weekend.
"Ok ok ok my friends just told me stop tweeting about HNHI so we can get all the money. Hahaha check it out its the real deal," 50 Cent reportedly tweeted.
Despite all of 50 Cent's recent success, the Post suggests H&H's long-term future doesn't look like a healthy investment since it currently sits at $3.3 million in debt and lost $1.3 million in the last quarter.
