GQ has a new spread and brief interview with Milo Ventimiglia. The photo section features the hot “Heroes” star in city and office settings wearing thousand dollar designer suits by Versace, Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein. He looks like a conniver in this photoshoot, like the type of guy you would want to sleep with for a week or two but who would be too slick to make a decent boyfriend.

In the accompanying interview, Milo, 30, doesn’t acknowledge that he’s in a relationship with his 18 year-old co-star, Hayden Panettiere, but he does say that the nickname for their relationship, “Halo,” makes him smile, and that he tries not to talk about his personal life. This is a departure from an interview he recently gave Cosmopolitan Magazine, in which he called himself single for the last year and a half and talked about the perils of dating:

Halo. That’s what the blogs are calling you and Hayden. Does that bug you?
You know what, man – it makes me smile.

If you two are dating, why not just say so? I read you bought the girl a ring from Tiffany’s!
When you’re in the public eye, you try to keep whatever you can private. People can speculate and talk. But what can you do – stop living your life?

Hayden was GQ’s Obsession of the Year. Did you like those photos?
Yes, I did. They were very nice.

In the most recent issue of Cosmopolitan, Milo’s maybe-girlfriend Hayden says she has to date guys who aren’t threatened by her job. She said “I need somebody who is very secure. In this business, I’m constantly standing next to gorgeous people. My job is to make out with [attractive] men. Like, hello, who wouldn’t be completely threatened by that? But at the end of the day, you have to realize that it’s just a job.”

Hayden also said that she doesn’t drink and is a “pizza-and-a-movie girl,” and that she’s secure with her body the way it is. She said she doesn’t have a model’s body but that “I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m okay with what I have. I can rock this body, you know?” [via Just Jared]

There are all sorts of rumors that these two are set to move in together after Hayden was spotting looking at condos with her mom. Maybe she’s just ready to move out of her parent’s place and isn’t about to move in with her boyfriend yet.

Hayden and Milo will pose together while they’re doing press for “Heroes,” but both have stayed wisely mum on their relationship.
