Life is no piece of cake for Butler
Saturday November 21 2009
Scottish super-hunk Gerard Butler has revealed rumours surrounding his personal life are "getting ridiculous".
The heartthrob, who has been linked with Jennifer Aniston and Lindsay 'My Life's A Car Crash' Lohan, claims that if he's so much as seen with another woman, the paparazzi assume the pair are dating.
"Even if it's the early stage of you dating somebody, or even just a friend who's a girl and you go 'I want to take her down the red carpet' -- it's not worth the bother," he said while promoting his latest film, Law Abiding Citizen.
But while Butler may no longer want chaperons on the red carpet, he apparently requires one on set to stop him eating cake.
The star struggled to stay in shape ahead of filming a nude scene for The Law Abiding Citizen and his co-star Jamie Foxx took great pleasure in spilling the beans.
"He was followed around by a trainer for most of the film. And his main job was to stop him from eating cupcakes."
