CAREY MULLIGAN appears to have moved on after her split from SHIA LABEOUF - she and PIRATE RADIO star TOM STURRIDGE have become Hollywood’s latest ‘it’ couple.
The actress turned to the bearded actor after finding herself alone and loveless in Los Angeles - and an old friendship has turned into a hot new all-Brit romance.
‘TomCare’ were spotted out shopping in West Hollywood on Tuesday (26Oct10) - the latest in a series of sightings around town.
Carey and Sturridge arrived together at the Hollywood Awards Gala on Monday, and he has reportedly been staying with her at the Best Western hotel, while she shoots new film Drive.
This could be the start of an all-star sextet - Sturridge and Hugh Dancy, who is married to Claire Danes, were best friends at posh English school Winchester and the Pirate Radio star is also close to Twilight hunk Robert Pattinson, who is dating his On The Road co-star Kristen Stewart.

Funnyman ANDY DICK’s manager is refusing to confirm or deny a story suggesting the oddball comic allegedly flashed his penis in a Los Angeles coffee shop.
The drunk comedian was reportedly sitting with a small group of friends when he suddenly kissed one of his companions, flashed his genitals and made a dash for the exit.
He continued his eccentric behaviour outside, allegedly flashing at a bus full of tourists and yelling at them.
A motorist, who claims he caught Dick’s craziness on video, says, "He was claiming he’d been raped and behaving insane, screaming for his life." The funnyman then reportedly jumped into a stranger’s car and asked the driver to take him home.
A spokesman for Dick refused to comment on the story.
It’s not the first time Dick has hit the headlines for flashing in public - he was asked to leave a party in July (10) after exposing himself to guests.
In June (10), he was reportedly ejected from a Los Angeles theatre after storming into the venue in a drunken stupor and in April (10) he was picked up by cops after allegedly wandering into a random house in Los Angeles in the middle of the night, prompting the frightened family to call police.
He was also ejected from a California winery when security staff suspected him of being intoxicated.
Dick was also charged with felony first degree sexual assault for allegedly grabbing a security guard’s crotch and kissing a male guest at a bar in Huntington, West Virginia without invitation in January (10).

A new book about MICHAEL JACKSON reveals never-before-seen images of the star behind-the-scenes of his iconic 1983 video THRILLER.
Photographer Douglas Kirkland has gathered all the snaps he took of the singer rehearsing for the horror promo and undergoing the make-up routine that transformed him from pop star to zombie.
The images all appear in Michael Jackson: The Making of Thriller: 4 Days/1983.
Remembering his time on set with Jacko - who died last year (09) - Kirkland writes, "The yellow contacts he wore were painful. So was peeling off the makeup. But he stayed positive. His ability to write, create and perform - he was truly exceptional."

CHARLIE SHEEN’s ex-wife DENISE RICHARDS will keep details of the actor’s tumultuous night in New York under wraps when her memoir hits shelves next year (11) - because she doesn’t want the book to be a "salacious" tell-all.
The former Bond girl will write about her rise to fame, her marriage and divorce from Sheen and life as a single mum to their two daughters in the as-yet untitled book, expected for release in July (11).
But the actress, who reportedly accompanied her former partner to the hospital on Tuesday (26Oct10) after police were called to investigate an alleged disturbance in his room at Manhattan’s Plaza Hotel, refuses to address rumours surrounding the incident in her book.
Instead, she’s focused on making it an uplifting tale about overcoming obstacles.
She says, "It’s not a tell-all. It’s not going to be salacious. I’ve been through a lot. A lot of men and women ask me how I got through a difficult time (in her marriage).
"I really think it’s important to figure out what’s important in your life and take the high road and move forward." On Tuesday (26Oct10), Sheen’s representative confirmed he had been hospitalised after suffering an "adverse allergic reaction" to medication.
The rep has dismissed reports the actor was under the influence of drugs and trashed his hotel suite, branding the claims "speculation".

CHARLIE SHEEN has spoken out for the first time about an alleged hotel rampage that left him hospitalised, insisting reports of the event have been "totally overblown".
The actor was taken to New York Presbyterian Hospital in the early hours of Tuesday (26Oct10) morning after suffering a reported meltdown in his suite at Manhattan’s plush Plaza Hotel.
Sheen’s publicist later revealed his client had suffered an adverse reaction to medication, but media reports have suggested the star had taken illegal drugs and was in the company of a semi-naked escort when cops were called to his room, where he had caused an alleged $20,000 (GBP13,300) in damage to tables, chairs and a chandelier.
But in a text message to RadarOnline.com, the actor insists the circumstances have been over dramatised by the tabloid press.
He writes, “The story is totally overblown and overplayed as far as the reality of the scenario. I know what went down and that’s where it will stay… under wraps."

Rocker JOHN MELLENCAMP has revealed the inspiration behind his musical collaboration with horror writer STEPHEN KING - he once owned a haunted house where a grisly murder took place.
The veteran songwriter teamed up with King in 2000 to work on Ghost Brothers of Darkland County, a play about a spooky holiday home inhabited by the spectres of two brothers who killed each other there years before.
The musical is finally set to hit the stage next year (11) after a series of production delays - and Mellencamp has now told of his own ghostly encounter that inspired the story.
In an interview with Q magazine, he recalls purchasing a lakeside cabin in Indiana as a holiday home for his family but later received a series of newspaper cuttings in the mail detailing a gruesome slaying that took place at the property in the 1930s.
He says, "The place was haunted. I stayed in it for two nights, couldn’t stand it. You’d hear things, s**t would move. Sounds crazy, but it’s true." Mellencamp sold the cabin when he realised he couldn’t live in a haunted home, and admits he said "Not a f**king word" to the buyer about the ghostly goings-on.
Asked how fans will react to his collaboration with King, he adds: "It will either be so f**king good that you can’t stand it, or the worst piece of s**t you ever saw."

GIRLS ALOUD star KIMBERLEY WALSH has slammed KANYE WEST for replacing his teeth with diamond dentures, branding them "over the top and ridiculous".
The rapper has swapped his bottom set of enamels for a row of gold and diamond implants to create a shiny new smile, which he debuted earlier this month (Oct10).
But British singer Walsh is concerned West’s new teeth could be dangerous and has blasted the hip-hop star for the "off-putting" image overhaul.
In her weekly column for Britain’s OK! magazine she writes, "Kanye West has had his bottom row of teeth removed and replaced with diamonds and gold. He wants to hope he doesn’t get any wrong ‘uns (violent people) knocking his teeth out, doesn’t he?! I’d be walking around wearing a gum shield if I was him.
"I seriously think he’s probably run out of things to spend his money on, it’s so over the top and ridiculous. Personally I don’t like how it looks either, teeth are so important and I think it looks off-putting!"

SIR ELTON JOHN felt sorry for MICHAEL JACKSON in his later years - because the THRILLER star was a "damaged" man who spent a lot of time alone.
The Rocket Man became close friends with Jackson in the 1980s and would often see him at concerts with Elizabeth Taylor.
But he was sad to see the decline in Jackson’s personality in more recent years, insisting the legendary singer put himself under too much pressure to better his record-breaking achievements in music.
Sir Elton tells Britain’s Daily Telegraph, "(Michael was) charming, sweet, lovely - but damaged. He came down (to my home) and we closed all the curtains and had lunch. He said it was the first time he’d sat down and had a meal with people for 10 years. He would always eat on his own.
"Fame infantilises people. You don’t ever grow up. But thank God, I did… I remember talking to Michael once when he did Thriller and I said, ‘How are you going to top that?’ He said, ‘Oh, the next one’s going to do twice as much’, and I thought, ‘Michael, it’s not. You can’t. You put so much pressure on yourself’."
