Britney Spears, who returned home this weekend from a quick visit home to Kentwood, LA last week, was spotted out and about in SoCal last night being driven by a handsome young man in a shiny black Porsche …

… the couple made their way to dinner together in Bel Air, CA — could it be that new lurve is in the air? And just who, pray tell, is this new dude? After the jump, check out a couple pictures of the gent with his face uncovered and see for yourself …
HMMM … as far as I can tell, this guy isn’t someone that Britney has been seen with before, but he sure does look like a cutie:

It’s absolutely unclear at this point what the nature of their relationship is but it does seem curiously intimate that this new guy is driving our dear Britney in a fancy car, just the two of them, to dinner (possibly a date?!). Might this be the beginning of a beautiful friendship or are we witnessing the burgeoning of a new love affair? I’m gonna hafta keep my eye on this one. What do y’all think … friend or fling?

I dunno. I have this thing where I can find a guy TOO good looking. He’s an example of this. He’s just TOO pretty, too…I dunno, chiseled. Too far removed from hot regular guy. Know what I’m sayin’?
Yep, he’s hot.
If that boy is straight… Then I’m loosing my gaydar quicker then Britney lost her kids (no offense brit brit, I HEART you!)
But look at that face! Perfect foundation for his skin tone, just a smidge of gloss… not to mention he has that look like he’s been sucking on a lemon (aka gay face.)
Either he is gay, or my jealousy is making me see fuzzy.
The guy is gay. As soon as I saw the pic of him standing there, my gaydar went off. I can’t believe you actually thought he might be Brit’s boyfriend. I am in interior design I used to work with a whole showroom of gay guys for several years so my gaydar is pretty accurate.
gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay
is all i can think about after seeing his pics..
HAHAH!!
Okay, still if he’s gay, he is still HOT!
gayer than blazes.
Nicole – I don’t believe Britney is copying Christina or taking her theme when she did “Back to the Basics” or anything. Britney has done this theme before, just look at her 2004 Onyx Hotel Tour with all the cabaret and what not… its pretty much the same thing.
I don’t think anyone is copying anybody.
he is gay. friend for sure.
Says that he is doing the Mannequin promo. So i’m guessing Mannequin is the third single from “Circus” album.
HAHA, dude. he does look gay, but it should be just a friend. I don’t think the new Brit will go back to her old ways. I HOPE NOT.
I hope for her sake this guy is straight because damn he is FINE specimen of a man! And you know girlfriend definitely deserves to have some fun right about now… although I do have to agree that no straight men are THAT hot… *sigh* unfortunately…
He’s not her type, in my opinion. Someone like Justin is – good looking but in a more “really hot guy next door” down to earth way. This guy is TOO good looking and from the way he is dressed……I have to lean towards gay or super Italian! lol
he’s totally registering on my gaydar.
and, um, ick!
he definitely looks better than k.fed
HOT!
Wish I could see a better pic!
