More than just friends? Jessica Biel and Gerard Butler spark romance rumours as they enjoy fun day out
By Sarah Bull

They said earlier this year that they were just friends.
But it seems Jessica Biel and Gerard Butler's friendship may have blossomed into something of a romance, judging by photographs of the pair out together last week.

Biel and Butler, who can soon be seen starring in romantic comedy Playing The Field, cuddled up on the back of a Harley Davidson motorbike as they sped down the Pacific Coast Highway.

And Butler also didn't appear to mind the fact he had a beautiful Hollywood actress clinging to his back, smiling as he put his foot down as sped off.
Biel and Butler were first romantically linked back in March when they filmed scenes for their new movie in Louisiana.

However, an insider on the set was quick to deny the reports, insisting: 'They have never had dinner alone. They are always in a crew of people on the film.
'There is no romance or relationship.'
But, judging by the photographs of the pair last week, their relationship has moved on from just friends to more than that.

Both Biel and Butler have a history of dating their co-stars.
Biel was linked to Edward Norton after starring alongside him in The Illusionist, while Butler was said to have dated Jennifer Aniston when they appeared together in The Bounty Hunter.
Butler was most recently reported to have set his sights on actress Kirsten Dunst during the Cannes Film Festival.

Kirsten was overheard telling friends: 'He came up to me and said, “Wow, you look delicious".

'I just turned to him and said, “You’re a total jerk. I mean what a stupid chat-up line.” '
Meanwhile, Biel's ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake, from whom she split in March, kept himself busy at the MTV Movie Awards as he flirted with another of his ex-girlfriends Cameron Diaz and groped his Friends With Benefits co-star Mila Kunis.
Biel and Timberlake confirmed their split earlier this year, with a spokesman saying they had 'mutually decided to part ways' after four years together.

Gerard Butler and Jessica Biel: Cajun Courtship?
By Mark Lambert

Monday June 06, 2011 10:30 AM EDT


Their reps say the two actors are "just friends," but they appeared to be pretty close friends while shooting Playing the Field in Shreveport, La., last month. And over the weekend, new photos surfaced of Biel enjoying a ride on the back of Butler's motorcycle down the PCH in Malibu.

A source in Shreveport tells PEOPLE that, off the set, Butler and Biel were "friendly but professional," but it's clear the two enjoyed each other's company in their downtime, as well.

Before shooting began, Butler, 41, who has a reputation as a ladies' man, and Biel, 29, who had just broken up with Justin Timberlake, were the center of attention at a cast and crew dinner at Tokyo Japanese Restaurant. One source tells PEOPLE the two stars sat next to each other the entire evening, talking and laughing, with Butler eating off of Biel's plate.

"He knows he looks good," the onlooker tells PEOPLE. "If I were her, I'd hook up with him. She looks good, too, and she knew she looked good, swinging her hips around."

The source adds: "They looked like a couple. They were having a good time."

The two appear to have some things in common: both enjoy outdoor activities, with Butler using his time off the set to canoe while Biel played golf.

Butler especially endeared himself to the cast and crew, often going out of his way to talk with fans. Biel also was friendly, but a bit more reserved than Butler, who prefers the nickname "Gerry." The two seemed to strike up a genuine friendship while working on the movie, but most insiders insist they're nothing more than friends.

"Gerry has a large personality, and everyone, including Jessica, gets caught up in his world," one insider tells PEOPLE. "I think they enjoyed each other's company. It can be hard working on a movie, trying to establish a new routine, and it helps when you have someone with you to make you feel more normal."

Interesting that the photos are labeled as June 2 - last Thursday. That was the same day that Gerry had a meeting with Davie Brown Entertainment totalk Harley Davidson strategy and confirm his bike delivery.
This company places products with celebrities for PR etc as well as using products in film and tv. And Harley Davidson is one of their clients.

I wonder if the pics were staged?

Oh and I forgot to do this ...

Isn't filming wrapped? Wouldn't there be mention of a film crew?
I don't know about it being related to filming, but the clothing does seem heavy for this time of the year. Maybe it was cool last Thursday on the PCH and in Topanga Canyon.....
BTW, that area where he went for this "ride" is around where the PR firm is located and where he had his meeting that day. It seems likely that this bike was supplied by them.

It's on JJ now:

Gerard Butler: Motorcycle Ride with Jessica Biel!

Gerard Butler goes on a motorcycle ride with Jessica Biel on Thursday (June 2) in Malibu, Calif.

The Playing The Field co-stars went for a ride down the Pacific Coast Highway on Gerry’s Harley and eventually ended up in Topanga Canyon!

Reps for the actors told People that Gerry and Jessica are “just friends”. A source on the set of the film in Shreveport, Louisiana said that the two were “friendly but professional”.

Later in the week, Gerard traveled to Hawaii for rest and relaxation - and some surfing!

20+ pictures inside of Gerard Butler and Jessica Biel going on a motorcycle ride together…

It's the Gerry/Jen crap all over again, but on a smaller scale because, let's face it....Biel isn't on quite the same "celeb" status as Aniston.

Are Jessica Biel and Gerard Butler “Falling in Love”?

Jessica Biel and Gerard Butler are the subjects of a “new couple alert” issued by Perez Hilton, who says Biel “may have finally found someone to replace the Justin Timberlake size hole in her heart.”

Biel and Butler have been filming their movie Playing The Field in Louisiana, but Hilton says they’ve been acting like more than friendly co-stars.

“Maybe they are taking the state motto to heart!” declares Hilton.

Hmm.

Louisiana’s state motto is “Union, Justice and Confidence.”

We’re not really sure where Hilton was going with that one.

In any case, the blogger says Biel and Butler’s “actions around each other suggest something a bit more could be going on.” Specifically, they sat next to each other during a recent cast dinner, and they were reportedly spotted on Butler’s motorcycle over the weekend.

“Sounds like the start of something new to us!” gushes Hilton.

Actually… sounds like the same tired old wrong rumor about the pair that’s been popping up for a while.

A rep for Butler assures Gossip Cop that he and Biel are just friends.

I'm still waiting for the sex tape...

Shelfy rides Spittle
His bike.

Did she know that Justin Timberlake would be at the MTV Movie Awards presenting with Mila Kunis and spending the weekend promoting Bad Teacher with his ex-girlfriend Cameron Diaz? Oh, I’m sure she had some idea.

So...

What did Shelfy get up to?

Jessica Biel was photographed out for a ride on the back of Gerard Butler’s bike. Unfortunately I cannot afford those photos. My business is on a budget. And they’ve already been secured by the Daily Mail and then another blog for, literally, thousands of dollars. I’m pretty confident though that you’re ok with me spending my money elsewhere, later, on a more worthwhile fake hookup? Or some Pitt Porn when it happens? Yes.

By the way, and here’s a little piece of information you might find interesting, this is the same photo agency that keeps shooting LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian exclusively during their private moments. On the beach. My favourite set was the engagement. Click here to see the totally authentic candid pictures. They’re HILARIOUS.

And click here to see photos of Jessica going for a spin with Gerry.

Shelfy met Spittle of course on the set of their new film Playing the Field. There have been rumours that they’ve been doing it since production started, but that was also timed around her breakup from Justin with everyone assuming that she’d been ditched.

After their ride though, Gerry took off for Maui without Jessica who stayed behind in LA for acting class from where the paps once again saw her leaving on Saturday, diligently working on her “craft”. Gerry meanwhile is surfing and shirtless – click here to see because I’m not buying those either – and...well... I really hope they don’t release some silly story about how “Gerard Butler looks lonely and misses Jessica Biel in Hawaii, has no eyes for other women!” because, I mean, if there’s a man out there who hooks up, wherever he is, and isn’t discerning about it... it’s Gerry B. Unless of course, something “strspecial” enough comes along and becomes his Bonafide. Jennifer Aniston tried that story and no doubt Shelfy’s using the same card too. Why not just get back together with Chris Evans?

Gerard Butler And Jessica Biel Playing Hanky Panky?


Gerard Butler and Jessica Biel are on the verge of falling in love in Louisiana according to Perez Hilton.

Jessica Biel may have finally found someone to replace the Justin Timberlake size hole in her heart as sources report she has gotten much closer to Gerard Butler in the last few weeks as they've been filming their new movie, Playing the Field.

The romance rumors really intensified over the weekend after People magazine reported that the two were spotted riding down PCH together on Gerard's motorcycle, but is it really a love connection or something more innocent?

A rep for Jessica tells RumorFix that her client and Gerard "are just friends."

What do y'all think of the posters over at Just Jared?

I mean, crazies, right? It's downright disturbing (and a bit nauseating) what people spend their time doing. For mild entertainment it's OK, but they get uber mean with each other over crap.

And some are totally out there with their comments, professing this that & the other. An awful place to visit. I don't often go there. Yuck.

I'm glad this group has sense and good-ribbing humor. :-)

Zombie hamsters?

Um yeah, otherwise she would fall off, wouldn't she?

The way they stretch details to try to turn things that aren't stories into stories is always so lame and

Biel a biker chick???

Are Jessica Biel and Gerard Butler Hollywood's newest couple? Sparks fly on set


When Jessica Biel says "Come fly with me," what hot-blooded male could resist?

Certainly not Gerard Butler.

A source close to the set of the actors' upcoming movie, "Playing the Field," says the two did their best to keep their mutual attraction in check while filming in Shreveport, La.

But after Biel invited the hot Scot to accompany her on a weekend jaunt to New York, the insider says the dynamic between them had definitely taken a turn for the warmer.

"From the beginning of the shoot, they were flirting with each other," says the source. But Biel, 29, who had recently called it quits with Justin Timberlake, "didn't want things to get weird on the set."

"They basically tried not to hook up," laughs the insider.

Early last month, however, the source says Biel had plans to hop a private plane to N.Y.C., and invited the 41-year-old Butler to accompany her for the weekend.

King Leonidas went along for the ride.

The actors' time in the Big Apple must have gone well, because, the source says, "When they returned to the set on Monday, you could see and feel the difference in their relationship." The source adds: "You got the sense that they were together."

The hard-bodied hotties weren't on location in Louisiana for very long before reports surfaced that sparks were flying between them. Us Weekly reported that at a crew member's birthday party on March 15, Butler "made a beeline for Jessica" when he arrived and "was really flirting with her."

Another witness told People.com that Biel and Butler "looked like a couple" at a cast and crew dinner that took place before filming even began.

A source also told the site that Butler, who has been linked with a lot of lovelies, including his "Bounty Hunter" co-star, Jennifer Aniston, "has a large personality, and everyone, including Jessica, gets caught up in his world."

Reps for Biel and Butler initially dismissed reports of a romance, but the story gained new life when they were spotted engaged in a more earthbound mode of travel: The "Lost" actress had her arms wrapped around the "300" star's waist as he negotiated the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu on his Harley-Davidson.

That said, another of our sources saw Butler in full flirtation mode at Lady Gaga's CFDA Awards after-party at the Top of the Standard on Monday night.

Although he arrived solo at the soiree and spent part of the night singing along to "Pokerface," our insider says he also spent part of the evening "chatting, flirting and laughing" with "Twilight" saga actress Ashley Greene, who clearly seemed amused by him. Greene split from Joe Jonas in March.

Reps for Biel and Butler did not respond to our requests for comment by deadline.
