Tara Reid & Jesse Metcalfe a Couple?

Despite repeated denials from Jesse Metcalfe’s rep that his client is romantically involved with party girl Tara Reid, the two seem to be engaging in some type of romance.

It was recently reported that Desparate Housewives co-star Jesse Metcalfe was romancing perpetual party girl Tara Reid. The two reportedly met and flirted at a recent award show, sparking rumors that the two were a couple - a fact that Metcalfe’s rep vehemently denied. Reportedly, Metcalfe avoided Reid like the "plague" at a party in L.A. last week. A source said, "Every time Tara came near him, he would run to the other side of the room. He was trying to duck her all night. It looked like a cat and mouse game."

It seems that Metcalfe possibly feared being photographed with Reid, probably at the urging of his rep. Even though he dogged the American Pie actress all night, the two reportedly met up after the party ended, snuck out the backdoor, and drove off together in Metcalfe’s car. Metcalfe’s rep said, "All I can tell you, with 100 percent conviction, is that they’re not dating." It seems that people are worried that Reid’s party girl ways could tarnish Metcalfe’s goody-goody image.

A few months ago, Reid appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and promised to marry on the show if Ellen found her a man. Reid’s requirements were as follows, "I want a nice guy. Nice, funny, good sense of humor, cute – obviously. Just a good guy." Ellen declared to launch "Tara’s Search for Love." Despite her need for help, Reid has been romantically linked to a string of high profile suitors including Carson Daly, *NSync-er JC Chasez, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Kyle Boller, and the New England Patriots’ Tom Brady to name a few. Clearly, she can find a man when she needs one. It’s keeping them around that seems to be the problem.
