Seacrest Out... and In and Out of Erica Lancellotti

Simon Cowell must be jealous of Erica Lancellotti.

After all, the owner of New York City hot spot, BarCandy, is dating Cowell's dream man: Ryan Seacrest.

In an interview with In Touch, Lancellotti says she and the American Idol host have been getting it on for awhile now:

"We have been dating on and off for a few years," she said. "We met at the Wetbar of the W hotel in New York and the only thing that has kept us apart has been his busy schedule."

Erica Lancellotti looks to be mixing some fruity drink. It must be for her boyfriend, Ryan Seacrest.

Overall, how does Erica feel about her new man?

"He's a great guy and I love him."
