Scarlett Johansson Spotted Holding Hands with Jared Leto

Are Jared Leto and Scarlett Johansson dating?

Well, it sure seemed like it to some people who have seen the two during the Democratic National Convention. Scarlett took on the stage to publicly express her support for President Barack Obama, and as she did, someone out there in the crowd showed her some support.

According to several sources, the two, who have been romantically linked a few years back, were caught holding hands, taking selfies, laughing, and engaging in a rather interesting conversation. One time, the actor even grabbed Scarlett’s ankle playfully as she stood up.

So, are the two dating?!

Her rep doesn’t think so, stating:

“Scarlett is still dating Nate Naylor. This is very innocent. Scarlett and Jared have remained friends, nothing more, nothing less. Let’s concentrate on the DNC and her speech, which is exponentially more important.”

Hollywood A-lister actor Bradley Cooper decided to quit alcohol and drugs after he once purposely hurt himself due to drunkenness.

Cooper, 37, said he once banged his head on the concrete floor after some wild partying in a vain attempt to show the world that he was a tough guy. The actor required hospital treatment after. Cooper reveals he decided to quit alcohol and drugs after that incident.

Cooper says he’s happy to be sober after years of wild drinking parties. Apparently, he’s now reaping the rewards of his decision to quit alcohol and drugs. Cooper is considered one of the top leading men in Hollywood today.

Watch out for Cooper in the film The Words alongside Avatar star Zoe Saldana, whom he dated for three months up until March this year. 

We hope other actors with alcohol problems will also step up and quit the habit!

Is Ryan Gosling the new Christian Grey?

According to some sources, the husband of the author of Fifty Shades of Grey spilled that the Notebook actor is in the talks of snatching the lead role for the upcoming movie version of the “erotic novel.”

E.L. James’ husband, Niall Leonard, shared to the U.K.’s Now magazine that the “last [thing] he heard” was that Gosling is topping the list of possible Christian Greys. Gosling’s party is yet to comment on the rumor, but surely, all of the girls out there are already saying “YES!” right now.

“I absolutely would be up for that. Absolutely. That would be a pretty incredible thing. And hopefully that could pan out, I think.”

Now, who should play Anastasia Steele?
