The Hurt Locker star Jeremy Renner is squashing a report that he recently made the moves on singer Jessica Simpson.
People.com reported that at a recent cocktail party for his movie at the L.A. home of Madonna's manager Guy Oseary, Renner, 39, "spent the night hitting on Jessica like crazy. They were really flirting up a storm."

But Renner - who brought his mom to the Oscars Sunday - told UsMagazine.com Sunday at the Governor's Ball that he only met Simpson, 29, for "three minutes."

"Her hair stylist [Ken Paves] did my mom's hair so we were talking about that -- and then all of a sudden we're dating!" he told Us.
Asked if he's seeing anyone, he told Us, "I’m single -- and looking!"

But that doesn't mean he's a Hollywood player.
"I'm not a ladies man!" Renner told Us. "I'm a working man! That's all."

61That is so sick dating Jessica Simpson she so desperate. If Mandy Moore split with husband Ryan Adams, Mandy can date Jeremy Renner.
poor of them now clebreties can't met them beacuse they're ¨dating¨
Spencer Pratt is the only one gross enough for a freak like Jessica.
I think that Jeremy would be a great person for Jessica. He is so cute, talented & a real person it seems to me. Better than those others she has been linked to.

READ BILLY CORGAN'S COMMENTS RIPPING INTO J. MAYER A/B HIM KISSING AND TELLING A/B JESSICA. Now he's a REAL MAN, which there's a shortage of in L.A. and Hollywood!
Jessica's shoes may be selling but thats not because of her. The Companies who bought her name do all the work, not her. She doesn't even design them. All she did was sell her name. Thats it. Thats all. The company has to make a profit before she will see her percentage. So, people are right when they say she has no talent. She can't sing, she can't act, the only thing she can do is show cleaveage and sell her name.
Just because the the shoes may be selling doesn't mean she has talent. She is an untalented failed actress and failed singer who is a celebrity spokesperson now. If that crap is really selling, it is in spite of her, not because of her. All she does is bring her bad publicity to it and the companies that bought her name wasted their money. They could sell just as much calling that stuff "Fart" for free.
God that man is beautiful...and SO talented! He's way too smart, funny and interesting to date a (lovely, but dumb) ditz like her. For those judging him, see all his movies before you comment on his talent.
For those who say she is used up and has no talent, she is raking millions,from her line of shoes and other stuff. So, if thats untalented, id love to be as untalented as she is, and making millions.
Thank GOD jessica isn't dating him. He's dam ugly!!!! LOL!
Well, Jeremy, I`m also single and looking :) "Most American women are fat and couldn't get a real stalker to save their lives."- Bwhahahahahaha...So true.
Well, IF there was any interest in her, he's killed that. Whatever simpson is or is not, it does not reflect well on this guy. Other women in hollywood, be aware of this guy.
I think it is funny people are ripping into jessica for having no talent, money, etc. She makes an incredible amount of money from her shoe line and accessory line-look it up-she was making more than tony romo when they were together. Stop hating haters!
He is not that good looking, he should be excited at the thought that people thought he could get jessica simpson. he seems kind of smug to me. Jessica is way too hot for him .
Poor guy, Jessica is so desperate. Billy Corgan had to deny her to. They need to stop lying on these men. Jennifer Aniston does this to. Jennifer A and Jessica S are just alike. Men should stay 10 feet away from them.
FAR too many american women want to appear more important than they really are. "Oh, he's ugly, I'll label him a stalker." Or.. "Ew, he asked me out and it was like...disgusting." Most American women are fat and couldn't get a real stalker to save their lives.
C Me In LA, I think you meant to say that you are Jessica's father. After hearing what Mayer had to say, you're the only one that wants to sleep with Jessica. You're the only one who would trust the opinion of a man who makes out with Perez Hilton.
''Who cares about Jessica Simpson??? Who is she right now??? might have $$$ but has no life???? She wasn't talented to begin with and won't ever be!!'' I agree! All those years as a celebrity and still struggling is not good. Why doesn't she just hang it up and forget Hollywood when it's not working for her.
