JT Torregiani: Paula Abdul's New Man
JT Torregiani may be bumping Paul Sculfor out of the celebrity boyfriend headlines.
A day after Paula Abdul's awful new reality series, Hey Paula, debuted on Bravo, celebrity gossip circles are abuzz over something else new in her life. Or, to be more precise, someone new.
Us Weekly reports in the new issue that for the past few months the American Idol judge has been dating restauranteur JT Torregiani. He threw a 45th birthday party for his lady on June 19 at Ketchup, a West Hollywood eatery he co-owns with actress Tara Reid.
So the guy obviously knows how to keep good company. And name restaurants.
Meet JT Torregiani, the guy lucky enough to reportedly see Paula Abdul nude every night.
"You could tell she was so happy to be with him," says a witness at the bash, which included American Idol alums Jordin Sparks, Blake Lewis and Chris Richardson. "They were cuddling all night."
Abdul and Torregiani met through friends and a source says they're getting almost as serious as Joel Madden and Nicole Richie.
"She introduces him to everyone as her boyfriend," the insider says. "It's really cute how she's so smitten."
Almost as cute as how drunk she is all the time. We wonder if Simon Cowell is jealous.

She might be smitten but is he?
I bet he's doing her to get some cash for a new restaurant. How else did he get Tara's dough?
I'll give him credit, he chooses soft targets.

That guy looks like such a user. I agree...Paula Abdul and Tara Reid..soft targets...girls wasted out of their minds. He's a golddigger and it's pathetic. I hate LA people like that.
