Rumors are swirling about Country Strong co-stars Leighton Meester and Garrett Hedlund.

According to Us Weekly, the attractive pair “may be making their onscreen romance a reality,” after they were seen hanging out together at HBO’s party after the Golden Globes.

One partygoer described Hedlund and Meester as “inseparable” to the outlet.

So are the Country Strong cuties getting serious in real life?

Nope.

A rep for Hedlund emphatically tells Gossip Cop, “He is not dating her,” observing that Hedlund and Meester “went out together with a group” but left separately.

    Too many news reported the same thing for all of them to be wrong.

    Again, Gossip Cop tells the story they are told to tell. Garrett and Leighton sung Give Into Me to each other in Country Strong . It is obvious that they had chemistry and were not just acting attracted to each other. At the end of the song, he whispered in her ear that he loves her. A guy like Garrett that has never been seen with girls at events and keeps a low profile would not say such a thing with out any thought. The song helped them to fall in love and he wanted to tell her during it. She looked surprised but pleased. They also both looked at their friends Tim and Gweneth with a happy look right afterward. The couple was reunited at the LA premiere 12/15/10, after several months of being apart while he filmed On The Road in several countries and she filmed Monte Carlo. He picked her up and hugged her and told her “I love you angel” and the paps got it on video. It is all on You Tube. These two fell in love. Leighton broke off with Sebastian Stan right after Country Strong wrapped in April 2010. Garrett went to NYC for the COSTUME GALA in May for the purpose of seeing her. He was very jubilant about his success and how his life had changed at Comic Con in July 2010. They wanted to make sure it was the real thing and not just a movie romance. They are also private people. Garrett knows Rob. Leighton knows Camilla Belle who is friends with Rob. They know what he has been through with his private life invaded and the emphasis on that instead of his talent. Garrett is the next it guy. He is very talented, good looking, intelligent and going places. His pr team want him to look hot and single. Garrett and Leighton are a great example of waiting for the right person and true love.

    You Tube search title “Garrett Hedlund with Leighton Meester ‘Give In To Me’ – Country Strong Clip ” It has over 1 million views so the cat is out of the bag. Watch the ending and then look for the LA premiere video where he greats her shyly (they had been apart with On the Road) and in the next video, she hugs him and he lifts her up. Despite her friends nearby, the director, costars and paps, romantic Garrett picks her up and tells her he loves her. Garrett and Leighton will be married soon because he is just that kind of guy.

    Again, Gossip Cop gets it wrong or circulates what they are told to promote by pr firms. Rob is not dating Kristen. She came out last year and at Sundance Film Fest. Garrett is dating Leighton. He is in the process of looking for a place in Nashville as he is sick of LA and he fell in love with it during filming. It is also closer to NYC so Leighton can finish her Gossip Girl contract and commute.

    To Zee: Young people follow this stuff. Believe it or not, most people find your gross terminology offensive. No wonder why young people do not value or elevate the wonderful process of falling in love and eventually being intimate.They are bombarded 24/7 with sexual remarks and vulgar terms. You demean and make it unimportant and no different then animals mating by using the term you did. Only shallow, foolish and gross people think they way you do. You are helping to make our society and young people crude and jaded. May heaven help you for what you and other “progressives” have done to America.

    It’s ironic that when Garrett got the part in On The Road way back in 2007, he found out on his birthday. He called his dad to proudly tell him and right afterward, his dad had a heart attack and was hospitalized. Then in 2010, while having a great time filming Country Strong, discovering his singing talent and falling in love, his grandpa was hospitalized. Garrett was planning to come home to Minnesota to see his grandpa. He called him to sing to him in the hospital. His grandpa said he was not going to make it and died while Garrett sang him “Chances Are”. Garrett had talked about life having tremendous joys coupled with great sorrow and it was important to acknowledge it. The song, ‘Timing Is Everything”, talks about how timing, fate and grace are all intertwined. It’s not just luck when the “stars line up and you catch a good break” as the song’s lyrics say.

    If Garrett had not met Tim McGraw on Friday Night Lights set, he would not have been suggested for Shana Feste’s movie Country Strong that Tim was in. Garrett would not have known he could sing and deliver such a touching performance. Leighton had been in LA and had moved to NYC around the time that Garrett had come back from filming Georgia Rule and Death Sentence down south.

    Perhaps if Tim and Faith’s friend, Taylor Swift had been available, she would have gotten the part and Garrett would not have met Leighton. Garrett had a little crush on Olivia Wilde after Tron but she was still married. He has known Olivia since they were 18 but she was married at the time to an Italian prince, so nothing happened between them but friendship. Garrett was 26 when he met Leighton on the Country Strong set. He was ready for love. Leighton recorded “Someone To Love” in 2009 before meeting Garrett. It is about wanting true love and romance. She also talked about believing in the notion of having great chemistry, finding the right person and a once in a lifetime love. Timing is everything. Holding out for true love is always worth it.

    I think Garrette & Leighton should date. They seem like a good couple and when they sung the song Give into me. You could see the emotion in there eyes for each other or at least I thought they were.
