Renee Zellweger celebrated her 42nd birthday on Saturday as a single gal. The actress' assistant arranged a surprise party for 15 guests at a friend's Manhattan apartment, a source tells Us Weekly.

Guests included Miramax cofounder Harvey Weinstein and CAA director Bryan Lourd. Her ex-beau, Bradley Cooper, was not present, nor were any other actors. "She was solo and having a great time," a source tells Us.

Hotelier Andre Balazs was also in attendance; the 54-year-old has been romantically linked to Uma Thurman and Chelsea Handler in the past. According to the New York Post, Zellweger celebrated with Balazs again Monday night at Indochine, a downtown restaurant. A source tells Us, however, "[Andre] an Renee are just close friends."

Zellweger and Cooper, 36, split in March after over two years together. A source told Us: "She stopped fighting. It was just not working out."

Since their parting, Zellweger's stayed busy: fresh from her split, she hung out with Sandra Bullock at the divorcee's Soho apartment. She also attended Reese Witherspoon's star-studded March 26 wedding to Jim Toth, and sold her posh Upper East side apartments to Leelee Sobieski.

    Great color on her! She looks good. I'm sure people will go off on her smile or her squinty eyes, blah, blah, blah but she looks happy and obviously knows what she wants...or at least what doesn't work for her.
