Aniston Denies Bloom Romance

The former Friends star has denied claims Bloom has been secretly courting her since they hooked up at a Los Angeles charity bash on 25 March (08).

OK! reports the new couple has been pals since Bloom was cast alongside Aniston's ex-husband Brad Pitt in 2003 movie Troy, and that the actress has held a longtime crush on the 31-year-old Brit.

In its new issue, the publication quotes eyewitnesses who claim the pair "only had eyes for each other" at an Epidermolysis Bullosa Medical Research Foundation fundraiser last month (Mar08).

A source tells OK!, "They were like heat-seeking missiles."

But Aniston's representative has dismissed claims of a romance, insisting, "Orlando is a friend. They both have the same manager and sometimes will be at the same place."

Bloom has also been romantically linked to Aussie supermodel Miranda Kerr.
