This time revolving around Gerard and his neighbor Cheryl Burke; supposedly they shared a secret kiss at Eva Longoria’s restaurant. Before I get into it, I have to address this nagging irritation I have here. Why does everyone suddenly only give a shit about Butler’s television career? He was in Beowulf, damn it! He was Leonidas! He was Dracula! What the hell is Nim’s Island in comparison? Anyway, that’s done. From People:
“Cheryl Burke is being coy about romance rumors between her and Nim’s Island star Gerard Butler — though she does say the two are friends and neighbors.
“You know, honestly he’s good friends with [my dance partner] Cristian [de la Fuente] and his wife — and we met through them,” Burke told Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS-FM radio show Tuesday. “He actually lives in my apartment building, and we’ve been friends for a few months.”
When pressed about a rumored kiss — during a party at Eva Longoria Parker’s restaurant Beso in Los Angeles — Burke told Seacrest: “You know, everyone says hello and says goodbye and kisses each other. Don’t you, Ryan?”
But Burke was more chatty when it came to another man in her life — her dance partner, whom she called, “the most improved guy I’ve ever been with. “And on Monday night’s “Dancing with the Stars,” Burke and de la Fuente earned a 27 from the judges. Said Burke: “He works so hard and he’s not afraid to do anything.””
Cheryl Burke is mainly popular in television; her film credits are nil, and Dancing With The Stars is her forte, although she’s -barely- a celebrity, let alone a star. As is usual in reality shows which feature the only celebrities willing to do any shows with the word “star(s)” in it. Cheryl’s glamorous face and style is probably the only celeb thing about her. Either way, she seems reasonably sweet, and somewhat uninterested in Gerard. He is probably still a bachelor. So yay for the rest of us.
