Is Orlando Bloom suffering from attention deficit disorder when it comes to his love life? Just days after the stubbornly soul-patched star was snapped getting hands-on with Victoria's Secret model Miranda Kerr, whom he's supposedly been pursuing for almost a year, he's not only been spied out with the fame-craving progeny of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore but is also rumored to be pining for Jennifer Aniston.

Rumer Willis at a Los Angeles benefit on Feb. 21

On Oscar night, Bloom, 31, reportedly turned up at Prince's exclusive bash with 19-year-old Rumer Willis. According to the New York Post, the unlikely duo "acted weird" at the party, "chatting closely with each other, then avoiding one another."

FoxNews.com, on the other hand, says they appeared "couple-like" and were joined at the hip throughout the night, while the London Daily Mirror takes it a step further by claiming the delicate-featured actor and the strong-jawed would-be starlet were making moon-eyes.

"As soon as they got in, they sat very, very close to each other and the chemistry was electric," alleges a breathless spy to the tab. "It was the talk of the party. After all, Orlando has become one of the most desirable men in Hollywood."

Concludes the suspiciously silver-tongued source, "Rumer was enjoying all the attention she was getting from Orlando -- not to mention all the green eyes in the room."

Another tabloid, however, believes Bloom is determined to win over Aniston, whom he hung out with at a Mexican resort last fall during a mutual business associate's wedding (they both adamantly denied rumors of a romance).

The London Daily Mail, which last week was convinced the low-key actress was getting to know her "Traveling" co-star Aaron Eckhart, claims Orlando is in the grips of a not entirely "secret crush."

Seems that earlier this month, the pair reconnected at a private party in Los Angeles, where, asserts the paper, they "bonded over their shared devotion to yoga and spent the night playfully enjoying each other's company."

OK!, meanwhile, says they were also chit-chatting Saturday night at the annual Night Before bash in Los Angeles, where the eagerly anticipated "showdown" between Aniston and ex-hubby Brad Pitt and a swollen-bellied Angelina Jolie never materialized (the ridiculously famous flames took a pass on the event).

In Bloom? Jen and Orlando at the 2004 Cannes Film Festival

"Jennifer is flattered by Orlando's attention," a snitch contends to the Mail. "He has had a crush on her for the longest time. He loves her energy."

Aniston, for her part, set off another flurry of speculation Sunday night when she was photographed in the company of a strapping, easy-on-the-eyes mystery man as she left a shindig at BFF Courteney Cox's pad.

While the two were seen doing little more than climbing into Jen's Range Rover (she was behind the wheel), it didn't take long for the rumor mill to anoint the unknown passenger as a hot romantic prospect, although the paper pooh-poohs that they're "merely acquaintances."

Speaking of acquaintances, did Jennifer give the cold shoulder to George Clooney at the Night Before soiree?

In a story that we urge you to take with several heaping boulders of salt, OK! claims the Oscar-winning Sexiest Man Alive -- and Pitt pal -- approached Aniston while she was in the company of Bloom, Cox and several others.

"George attempted to be friendly, but Jen wasn't having it," a bystander maintains to the mag. "After enduring a few minutes of the actor's presence, Jen turned on her heels and made a beeline for the Sunset Ballroom, where most of the guests were mingling."
