Just Jared posted these photos of Gerard Butler and a “mystery woman” walking around NYC, and the Butler-loonie commenters went crazy. They went Full Dragonfly. And it just reminded me that every person has “their celebrity” that they go crazy for. For many of you, that’s Benedict Cumberbatch or Tom Hiddleston. For other people, it’s still G-But.

Anyway, I don’t know if this is Gerard’s new girlfriend or if their eyes met in a porto-potty and they just knew they had to take their relationship to the next level. I guess they could be friends too. It seems date-ish though. They wandered around New York, talking and laughing and while their body language doesn’t say “we’re banging on the regular,” it does say “we’ve banged a few times and we’re seeing how it works in daylight.” Which is bad because I don’t think G-But is at his best in daylight hours. Also: she’s carrying a tiny ice cream cone in a few of these photos. Ice cream date? That’s cute.

One thing I’ve always liked about Gerard is that he does seem to have a general type: he likes women of color. Of course he’s gone through stages where his type falls away (Brandi Glanville), but usually his girlfriends are olive-skinned, with long dark hair. They usually have long legs too. Michael Fassbender has a similar type, although I think Fassy goes for petite women of color where Gerard prefers tall, model-type women. So it’s no surprise that Fassy and Butler’s dating habits sometimes coincide (remember Madalina Ghenea?). I’m looking at this mystery woman… and yeah, Fassbender would be into her too.
