This week, a slew of interesting rumored romances hit the gossip pages and Internet faster than you could say "no way!" Though some seemed like they could be real, a few there left us scratching our heads. So, we decided to round them up and figure out who is heating up and who aren't even lukewarm.
Joe Jonas and Demi Lovato
Kicking things off is Joe and Demi, who were recently seen dining with Kevin Jonas and his fiancé Danielle Deleasa. As soon as these two stepped out, everyone immediately assumed it was a date. But, we think it was just dinner. They've been friends for a while, plus he might be dating Brenda Song, and Demi might be seeing a better looking version of her former flame Trace Cyrus.

It has been a long, windy road for Jennifer Aniston ever since she got a divorce from Brad Pitt in 2005. She’s has been around the block a few times, but now Us Weekly is reporting that it seems as though she’s finally settled down with John Mayer ... again. Amidst speculation, perhaps Jen decided she had been burnt one too many times.
Their relationship originally started in April 2008 and they split twice, finally ending their one year rapport in March 2009. Jen then spent all summer reportedly being wooed by Bradley Cooper and Gerard Butler. Gerard called the rumors that he was dating Jen — while the two made the movie "The Bounty Hunter" — "ridiculous," adding to People that, "I'm trying to make movies, work hard and do my best. Then this kind of thing happens and people start to associate me more with that."

If someone were to ask you whom the best investment a studio could make for their leading lady in a film, your best guess probably wouldn’t be Naomi Watts. But according to Forbes, the actress best known for her role in “The Ring” offers the best bang for her buck, even more so than Angelina Jolie.
Forbes compiled their top 10 list based on the 100 biggest female stars in Hollywood who have starred in at least three films in the past five years that opened in more than 500 theaters. That rules out most art films, to translate the business lingo. They then calculated each star’s earnings per movie based on their upfront pay, earnings from box office receipts, and DVD and TV sales. This was weighted against a calculated operating income for each film. Still following?

Her newest film, Love Happens, opens tomorrow, and is a romantic drama that places her opposite "The Dark Knight" hunk Aaron Eckhart.

Its been a great week for musicals and death in the movies world, with Hugh Jackman snagging his first film musical lead in "The Greatest Showman on Earth" and "The Lovely Bones" trailer making its debut. Today, Jennifer Aniston and Josh Duhamel are joining the fray by each signing on to their own respective projects, "Goree Girls" and "Life As We Know It."
Jennifer Aniston is going to be belting out some tunes as a prison inmate in "Goree Girls," the story which feels a bit like a female version of "O Brother, Where Art Thou." But that's probably because the script is based off Skip Hollandsworth's article for Texas Monthly called "O Sister Where Art Thou," a true story of eight female inmates in Texas' Goree Prison who formed one of the first all-woman country and western acts in the US. Jen is the only actor so far Variety has confirmed for the role, but Just Jared rumored back in November Gerard Butler might also be joining the fold. Read more...
Every day a multitude of stars wanders through the halls of MTV News to talk about their latest projects and goof around with staff members. But sometimes we catch stars elsewhere, and that's why we put together Spotted!, a daily compendium of stars in the wild.
A slew of CW stars, including "Melrose Place" actress Ashlee Simpson-Wentz in a bright blue shorts ensemble, turned up at the Television Critics Association Press Tour this week to dish about their upcoming shows. (Why isn't it September yet!?!) Click on the photo below to see more of Ashlee and a few other TCA guests.
On the reboot of the classic '90s primetime soap, Ashlee plays small-town girl Violet, "whose disarming naivete masks the calculating, shrewd sex kitten within," according to EW. She told the panel that hubby Pete Wentz, along with the rest of her family, has seen the pilot and loves it. But don't expect "Melrose" to be a family affair. Ashlee shot down the idea of sister Jessica guest-starring on the drama. "I think we've mixed enough family and work, so for now we're good just being sisters," she said during the panel.

Jennifer Aniston may often be labeled as the “lonely girl” or the “heart-broken," but she has definitely not let that hold her down. She graces the cover of the Elle's September issue wearing a sexy leather dress (see the full image after the jump), and some even sexier pictures inside reminded us of her scandalous January GQ cover where she bared (almost) all.
It may seem that she’s only been in the headlines lately for her love life (or according to most tabloids: lack thereof), but Jennifer has pushed through it all and isn’t afraid to be honest. "I'm not going to ignore the pink elephant in the living room," she confessed to Elle . "It's fine. I can take it. If I'm the emblem for 'this is what it looks like to be the lonely girl getting on with her life,' so be it." Jennifer has always been known for her great sense of humor and her ability to cope while being pinned in the spotlight. She says, “I can make fun of myself. And I'll bring it up as long as the world is bringing it up." Read more...
