With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, it’s time to embrace being single and get ready to mingle with Dairy Queen! On February 14th’s Hallmark holiday (ahem), you can proudly walk into Dairy Queen and order the “Singles Blizzard”. This limited-edition cool-treat has yummy, salted caramel truffles, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, peanut butter topping, and of course, Dairy Queen’s signature soft serve ice cream. Best part? You don’t have to share. When asked what motivated them to roll this new Blizzard out, Dairy Queen said they are celebrating single-life, not pitying those who live it. Dairy Queen’s data shows that half of all Americans, in a relationship with themselves, describe themselves as “proudly single” and 72% of singles actually enjoy Valentine’s Day. Barry Westrum, the Executive VP of Marketing for U.S. DQ Corp. explains: “Single Americans now outnumber those who are married, so we felt the time was right to honor our single fans”

Like father, like son. Ben Stiller aka Derek Zoolander has passed on his “ridiculously good looking” features to his son.

Stiller attended the event with wife Christine Taylor (who appears in the 1st Zoolander movie), their daughter Ella, and son Quinlin.

Say hhheeelllllo0o0o to the SEXIEST DAD ALIVE!!!! In this weeks cover story of PEOPLE, Ryan Reynolds opens up about everything from losing his father to Parkinson disease, marrying Blake Lively and raising their 15-month-old daughter James together. James was actually named after Reynold’s father. As for the passing of his father last October, Reynolds tells PEOPLE:

“My dad left a lot of unanswered questions…Unless I can find a very upscale Ouija board, I have to accept there’ll be no answers.” 

“Our relationship never really mirrored the father-son dynamic I envied watching ’80s sitcoms,” he adds. “But in the end it found its own version of closure in peace.” 

Meanwhile, the Deadpool actor says he met Blake Lively while filming The Green Lantern. He says, the two were friends first but eventually went on a double date.

“We were buddies then. I remember it was funny because for about a year afterGreen Lantern had come and gone and all that stuff we were both single,” he said. “We went on a double date. She was on a date with another guy and I was on a date with another girl. That was the most awkward date for their respective probably because we were just like fireworks coming across…It was weird at first but we were buddies for a long time. I think it’s the best way to have a relationship is to start as friends.”

“One of the most common things in the world is making out, having a couple of drinks, and then doing it, and then having a baby. I was perfectly sober for this one though. I gotta say,” he joked. “Its amazing. I just always marvel how common it is and yet how profound it is. And I always laugh because you know celebrities you always cringe when they talk about their kids. Like ‘my child is the only one that has ever exited a womb out, ever.'”

“Well, a lot of people have done this, so you always want to temper it with a little of self-effacement. But I love it. I truly worship that kid. It’s terrible. She has me so far wrapped around her finger it’s dumb. She says ‘dada’ and I will walk through a cement wall to get to her.”
