EVAN AND Zora, no more-a?
Say it ain't so, "Joe."
While Fox is making the world wait another week to find out if the barely-coupled couple is still together, word on the streets of Zora's hometown of Lambertville is that the leggy substitute teacher has fled the picture postcard Jersey burg, and is either in L.A. prepping for her new life, or in hiding at a hotel (probably not a Marriott) because of flowers sent to her home by a secret admirer/stalker.
"She thought it was a bit freakish," a former student told the New York Post.
As for Zora, her lips are sealed.
"I can't talk right now," she told both the Post and New York Daily News, who have a combined eight reporters working the story.
Good thing there's nothing else going on.
* Just as Evan modeled skivvies
and Sarah modeled duct tape, it turns out Zora was also a model. Check out www.theknitter.com /plymyarpresi1.html to see her in a tasteful 100 percent cotton yarn Adriafil Ibiza vest.
* The Post reports that Fox will
send Evan to Hawaii as a big wet smooch for the show's great ratings. No one's saying if Zora will join him. Tattle's saying she won't.
* The New York Daily News reports that Evan has taken a few shifts at his construction job. "Maybe it's a stress release," said the company's office manager.
If he's looking for a stress release, uh, can you say Sarah?
Tattle casting calls
"Coyote Ugly," the bar based on a bad movie based on a bar is coming to Old City and it's looking for some hot chicks who can pour a shot and kick their heels (preferably at the same time). You don't have to look like Tyra Banks, but it sure wouldn't hurt.
Tryouts are Monday, March 3 (pre-screening interview noon-6 p.m.) at the Electric Factory, 7th and Willow streets.
Final Selection, celebrity judging and a Coyote Ugly party will be open to the public starting at 8 p.m. Info: 215-925-9573.

* Those of you hoping for a Britney/Justin reconciliation, and we know you're out there, don't hold your breath.
Us Weekly reports that the couple were at an L.A. club last week partying on opposite sides of the dance floor and didn't say a word to each other.
Then both held separate press conferences explaining that although they were not speaking, they were still friends and still cared deeply about each other.
* The London Sun reports that
the Spice Girls dinner reunion did not end with reunion plans.
Melanie Chisholm (Sporty Spice) has ruled herself out of a reformed Spice Girls - to concentrate on her solo career.
