Hollywood stars ORLANDO BLOOM and PENELOPE CRUZ flirted "outrageously" with each other at a pre-Oscars bash in Los Angeles at the weekend, according to reports.

The PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN actor also managed to charm JAIME WINSTONE, the daughter of SEXY BEAST star RAY.

A source tells British newspaper The Daily Mirror, "Orlando and Penelope were playing pool and flirting outrageously. Penelope seemed more than a little smitten and afterwards they retired to a corner for a couple of drinks - they couldn't keep their hands off each other.

"Orlando was talking to a pal when Jaime came over and gave his mate a hug. The actor immediately joked, 'Don't touch him, or you and I will definitely have kids.'

"Jaime loved the fact that he was so cheeky and soon Orlando had ditched his pal and taken her to the bar."

Orlando Bloom and Penelope Cruz spent the whole night kissing at Prince's Oscars party.
Orlando took Penelope's mind off her Best Actress disappointment by passionately embracing her at the party held at Prince's Hollywood home on Sunday night (Feb 25, 2007).

A source told the New York Daily News newspaper: "Penelope and Orlando couldn't keep their hands off one another - they were making out the whole night."

"It was crazy! Touching, kissing - even a little bit of groping. And in view of tons of actors, too, like Leonardo DiCaprio and Ryan Gosling."

The couple also "flirted outrageously" at a pre-Oscars party at Los Angeles' members club Soho House.

A source said: "Orlando and Penelope flirted outrageously while playing pool."

"Penelope seemed more than a little smitten and afterwards they retired to a corner for drinks - they couldn't keep their hands off each other."

The 32-year-old "Volver" actress also helped Orlando celebrate his 30th birthday at Los Angeles nightclub Teddy's last month, where the couple were said to be inseparable.

A source said: "Penelope was never further than arm's length from Orlando, even when he was surrounded by other women on the dance floor."

So are they actually convincing or do they look fake like Tom and Katie?

**mad1** · March 2nd, 2007, 06:09 PM

I'm sure those two are in a relationship, just not with each other.

I didn't realize she was so young, she seems so much older than him! She's no actress - she's a professional beard.

Maybe she's sick to her stomach now knowing that he is.

That's a fug photo of him.

I just find it funny that he broke up with a skinny blond who looks like a teenager and moved on with someone older and has boobs.

I dont buy this for a second but even if it were true, they are an odd couple. Penelope is a woman and he is like a boy who hasn't been through puberty yet.

I don't buy it either, but it's more because he's gay and she's gayer.

I so don't care. I'm tired of beards. (In this case, mutual bearding)

I read about 5 different reports of this same party: this one, one saying they didn't touch all night, another saying they greeted and parted ways, Lainey says she saw him with some friends and a bunch of giggling groupies sans Pene.... Gimme a break already. I don't buy into this ragmag-made relationship. It's about as accurate as what they said about him and Kirsten.
