Maybe a certain spottily reported site calls itself HollywoodLife precisely because it just won’t let anything die, especially its way off-base stories.

About three weeks ago, HollywoodLife mistook photos of Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler at Heathrow Airport in London to be a sign of a secret “romantic rendezvous.” (Uh, the two flew into London for the film’s premiere there. Whoops.)

The guffaw-inducing gaffe was followed the very next day by a piece in which the site gushed, “The PDA [on the red carpet] makes you wonder … The Bounty Hunter costars HAVE TO BE romantically involved!”

“HAVE TO BE”?

The writer of that post went on to ridiculously state that people who think Aniston and Butler were “just promoting their movie and aren’t dating at ALL… don’t know what chemistry looks like!” 

Gossip Cop has developed a serious case of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome repeatedly busting HollywoodLife’s craptastic reporting, while noting all along the two co-stars are just friends.

Fast-forward to today’s offering from HollywoodLife.

In a piece titled, “Jen, Gerard Is Finally Coming Clean About Your Relationship!” HollywoodLife laughably writes, “Gerard Butler has finally fessing (sic) up about his alleged romance with Jennifer Aniston - and claims that he and his The Bounty Hunter co-star are, well, just friends.”

“Finally Coming Clean”?

“Finally fessing up”?

Have we not said they’re “just friends” since the rumor began floating last July?

Even after HollywoodLife quotes Butler telling a radio show this morning, “If I was going out with Jennifer, I’d be more than happy to share with the world that I’m going out with Jennifer, but it’s just not true,” the site still won’t let it die.

The bad blog writes, “So Gerard, what you’re telling us is that Jen’s sexy salsa dance after the Madrid premiere of The Bounty Hunter did nothing for you, and that your romantic boat ride down the Seine in Paris March 27 was strictly platonic? We wonder if Jen, 41, agrees!”

Actually, she does – and again, we’ve been saying the same thing for months!

Unable to leave bad enough alone, HollywoodLife wishingly concludes, “There’s still hope for Gerard and Jen.”

While one could argue whether “there’s still hope for Gerard and Jen,” it’s obvious there’s no hope for HollywoodLife.

“Jen & Gerard — Looking Hot & Happy Together In London!” exclaims HollywoodLife, which just yesterday laughingly claimed the two were spotted in the airport hours apart ready for a “romantic rendezvous.”

Uh, Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler were in the airport not hours, but a day apart because they were in London for the premiere of their film, “The Bounty Hunter” – repeat, not a “romantic rendezvous” (HollywoodLife learned that later – from us).

The site, which has made far too many mistakes to list here, then goes on to write, “The PDA [on the red carpet] makes you wonder … The Bounty Hunter costars HAVE TO BE romantically involved!”

No, they HAVE to promote an action-filled romantic comedy – and they happen to be friends, too.

Timeout: Wasn’t this the same site that recently said they were faking a relationship to hype this film? Don’t remember? Click here.

Anyway, the “reporting” that HollywoodLife has based this ridiculous story on is “Look at these two! They look super happy and really flirtatious with each other.”

Gossip Cop prefers to look at the facts, which happen to be that they are FRIENDS and are NOT DATING.

Clearly, even HollywoodLife doesn’t believe its own reporting, because the site concludes this drivel with “If they are a couple, we can only hope that Gerard is learning to leave behind his rumored Playboy ways. Jen’s had her heart broken way too many times!”

“If”? What happened to insisting the two “HAVE TO BE romantically involved” a few paragraphs ago?

Actually, Gossip Cop keeps wondering, what if HollywoodLife were to truly report a story?

Gossip Cop has to give the National Enquirer some credit. While the supermarket tab is not always the most reliable source of celebrity reporting, it may be among the most imaginative.

In a piece titled, “Jen & Gerard Moving In Together,” the Enquirer reports, “Jennifer Aniston’s rekindled love affair with ‘300’ hunk Gerard Butler has shifted into overdrive – she’s asked him to move in with her!”

Yes, you read that correctly.

According to the gossip rag, “During a recent whirlwind, champagne-fueled weekend of flirting and public kisses, Jennifer propositioned Gerard with an offer too good to refuse.”

“Gerard could barely contain his excitement when Jen suggested that he move into her Beverly Hills mansion… Before the words, ‘move in with me,’ were out of Jen’s mouth, Gerard shouted, ‘Yes!’”

NO.

That NEVER happened, and they are NOT moving in together.

While the rest of the world inaccurately jumped on the Aniston reuniting with Brad Pitt bandwagon, the Enquirer chose to go in another (equally wrong) direction with Butler.

Gossip Cop’s checking in with sources about the Aniston-Butler rumor was met with responses of “Huh? “No!” and even one “What’s wrong with you?”

Additionally, a rep for Aniston told Gossip Cop, “Nonsense. They are buddies – not dating.”
