Has Reese Witherspoon got a new man?
She certainly doesn’t waste her time.
Fresh from her break-up, Reese Witherspoon was spotted dining out with a handsome suitor in Santa Monica, last week, at Italian eatery Locanda Portofino.
The man in question is Jim Toth, a Hollywood talent scout who works for the agency that look after the 33-year-old actress.
A source for People magazine said: “They were very flirtatious throughout dinner. They were having a lot of fun, totally getting along and laughing and talking the whole dinner. Reese seemed very happy. She was smiling all dinner. The mood was upbeat and really good.”
After the two-hour meal, Toth paid the bill and the pair parted with a kiss in the car park. An onlooker told the gossip mag: “Reese reached around his neck and pulled him close for a hug. They kissed bye on the cheek – but it was a very friendly goodbye.”
But was it all business or pleasure?
A source close to the Legally Blonde star claims the dinner was just work, however a friend of Jim’s maintains it was, “a date,” though, “nothing serious.”
Since her split from actor Jake Gyllenhaal in December, the mother-of-two has been linked to Scot Gerard Butler.
It’s about time we saw Reece with a fella who can reciprocate her, ahem, affections… on account of the bearding and all.

Gerard Butler tongues street performer…
… and I don’t mean Jennifer Aniston – she’s a different kind of performer.
Gerard Butler, 40, was snapped exchanging numbers and saliva with a violinist he met only minutes earlier, while out and about in Venice, California on Sunday.
His fauxmance with Jennifer Aniston seemed to have slipped the actors mind – the pair were thought to have ignited their ‘relationship’ after they were seen reportedly canoodling at the Golden Globes.
Just shocking. It’s almost as if the The Bounty Hunter co-stars were putting it all on for the cameras.

Zac Efron & Vanessa Hudgens play house
Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens are reportedly house-hunting.
The High School Musical stars, who have been dating since 2006, are set on living together when Hudgens returns from filming her latest film Sucker Punch in Canada.
According to In Style, a source close to the pair said: “When Vanessa was apart from Zac while filming her upcoming movies Beastly and Sucker Punch, she realised how much she missed him and loved being around him all the time.
“When she got back to LA, she told him she wanted them to move in together.”
Yeah. It’s a slow news day.
Nicole Kidman powders her nose
Someone get Nicole Kidman a mirror!
Sporting streaks of unblended white powder on her nose and under the eyes, the usually immaculate actress suffered from a make-up malfunction on the red carpet during the New York premiere of Nine, last night.
Aside from the beauty faux-pas, the 42-year-old dazzled in a Prada prom-dress giving her younger co-stars – Kate Hudson, Penélope Cruz and Fergie a run-for-their money in the style stakes.
Perhaps she was auditioning for the forthcoming Batman flick?

Samantha Burke pregnant with Jude Law’s baby
Jude Law is expecting his fourth child with 24-year-old ‘actress/model’ Samantha Burke who is due to give birth in October.
The 36-year-old actor’s spokesperson said: “Jude Law can confirm that, following a relationship last year, he has been advised that he is to be the father of a child due in the fall of this year.
“Mr. Law is no longer in a relationship with the individual concerned but he intends to be a fully supportive part of the child’s life. This is an entirely private matter and no other statements will be made.”
The ‘Sleuth’ star, who already has three children – Rafferty, 12, Iris, 8 and Rudy, 6, with ex-wife Sadie Frost, intends to play an active role in his new daughters life.
Burke confirmed last week that she was seven months pregnant by Law, with whom she had enjoyed a brief relationship while they were acting in Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes.
“Samantha, her mother and her family can affirm that Jude has been responsible and supportive throughout the relationship and pregnancy, and know he will remain so as a father once baby Sophia is born,” says a spokesman for Miss Burke.
Congrats, I guess. Now I’m not saying this ‘actress slash model’ is a gold-digging, fame-whore but let’s just acknowledge that she’s pretty much set for the next 18-years.
Harry Potter bully in drugs bust
Jaime Waylett, best known for playing wizard bully Vincent Crabbe in the Harry Potter films, was arrested last Thursday on suspicion of possessing cannabis.
Police discovered the stash after pulling over the vehicle the 19-year-old was driving, along with an unidentified friend.
“The car was searched and officers found eight bags of a substance believed to be cannabis,” a spokesperson for the police said.
A further bust in the actor’s Camden home, which he shares with his mother and siblings, led to the discovery of additional narcotics.
“Officers found a number of plants believed to be cannabis plants and equipment for cultivation. Both men have been bailed until July pending further inquiries and tests on the substances.”
Waylett evidently puts the the Pothead in Harry Potter.
Oh come on, that was way too easy.
