A rep for Saldana, who recently filmed The Words with—and got to practice kissing—Cooper, denied that the costars were anything more than friends a month ago, after their appearance together at a Manhattan nightclub prompted romantic speculation.
But as recently as last week, a source tells E! News, they were telling friends that they had plans to go skiing in the Rockies together over the holidays.
"They are totally dating," the source says.
Reps for both stars did not immediately return requests for comment.
Saldana and her boyfriend of nearly 11 years, Keith Britton, called off their engagement and revealed that they had broken up in early November.
After a nail-biting seven-week wait at No. 2, LMFAO's "Sexy and I Know It" at last struts to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 as the chart's top Digital Gainer during the robust sales week leading up to Christmas Day.
"Sexy" assumes control of the Hot 100 by logging a fourth week at No. 1 on the Hot Digital Songs chart, selling 395,000 downloads (up 159%), according to Nielsen SoundScan, over the Dec. 19-25 sales tracking week. The song stays at No. 3 on Hot 100 Airplay with 103 million in all-format audience, according to Nielsen BDS.
As the duo's prior single, "Party Rock Anthem," featuring Lauren Bennett and GoonRock, led the Hot 100 for six weeks, LMFAO is the first duo to notch back-to-back No. 1s on the chart since OutKast ruled for nine weeks with "Hey Ya!" beginning Dec. 13, 2003, and replaced itself in the penthouse with "The Way You Move," featuring Sleepy Brown, the week of Feb. 14, 2004. (LMFAO and OutKast are the only twosomes to lead the Hot 100 with successive singles since Roxette in 1990-91).
"Sexy and I Know It" brings "sexy" back to the Hot 100's pinnacle for a fourth visit. The three previous No. 1s with the word "sexy" in their titles? Rod Stewart's "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?" (four weeks at No. 1, 1979); Right Said Fred's "I'm Too Sexy" (three, 1992); and, Justin Timberlake's "SexyBack" (seven, 2006).
LMFAO's "Anthem," meanwhile, returns to the Hot 100's top 10 (15-9), spurred by a170% increaseto 214,000 downloads sold. The song racks a 27th week in the top tier, a sum that only three titles have bested: LeAnn Rimes' "How Do I Live" (32 weeks, 1997-98); Santana's "Smooth," featuring Rob Thomas (30, 1999-2000); and, Jewel's "Foolish Games/You Were Meant for Me" (28, 1997-98). "Anthem" passes Savage Garden's 26-week top 10 stay with "Truly Madly Deeply" in 1997-98. The coronation of "Sexy"dethronesRihanna's "We Found Love," featuringCalvin Harris, after eight weeks at No. 1,Rihanna's longest Hot 100 command. "Love" spends a sixth week in charge of Hot 100 Airplay (148 million), whileslipping2-3 on Hot Digital Songs (276,000, up 86%).
Katy Perry's "The One That Got Away" rises 5-3 on the Hot 100 and is just two notches from making parent album "Teenage Dream" the first set to generate six No. 1s in the survey's history. The track bounds 6-2 on Hot Digital Songs (297,000, up 157%) and lifts 5-4 on Hot 100 Airplay (99 million, down 1%). In its first week of availability, the B.o.B-assisted remix of "One" accounted for 26% (76,000) of the title's overall digital sales.
Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol beat out David Fincher's edgy and violent The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo over Christmas holidays. Of course, Fincher's creepy film about a Nazi serial killer of women -- that features graphic male and a female rape scenes -- wasn't exactly box office 'feel good' holiday fare. So it makes sense that Chip-wrecked topped it on a family weekend.
1. Mission: Impossible--Ghost Protocol (2), Paramount/3,448, $46.2 million, $78.6 million
2. Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows (2), Warner Bros./3,703, $31.8 million, $90.6 million
3. Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked (2), 20th Century Fox/3,683, $20 million, $56.9 million
4. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (1), Sony/2,914, $19.4 million, $27.7 million (opened 12/20)
The big question facing the Sony may be whether or not to proceed with two more Girl films. And the question facing Rooney Mara may be whether or not to remove her nipple ring and let her goth punk mohawk grow out. If we were her, we'd start taking hair and skin vitamins STAT, hang up her edgy cut-out Roksanda Ilincic gowns and start going on auditions looking like a normal girl.
As for Noomi Rapace, the Lisbeth Salander in the Swedish Stieg Larsson's Girl films, this has got to be, well, the Best. Christmas. Ever. Oh, not because Rooney's Girl is a total Christmas Turkey. But because she starred in Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, which beat the younger star's Girl. And that's gotta feel really, really good.
There must be a pregnancy bug floating around the Victoria's Secret dressing room. Or at least a lot of cuddling (ahem) when the ladies finish strutting their stuff on the runway and head home to their men.
E! News has exclusively learned that lingerie model Lily Aldridge and her Kings of Leon hubby, Caleb Followill, are expecting their first child together.
According to the source,the brunette beauty is said to be approximately three months along.
Aldridge and the band's frontman tied the knot last May in Santa Barbara after Caleb proposed to his then-girlfriend of more than two years in September of the previous year. Call us crazy, but we're going to bet that this little tot is going to have some insanely awesome genes.
