Soon to be divorced musician Billy Joel has a new girlfriend. He and Deborah Dampiere attended the Metropolitan Opera opening of Tosca at Lincoln Center on Monday, September 21, 2009.

Joel brushed off questions about the status of his divorce proceedings, telling an inquiring reporter, “I don’t know…ask my lawyer.” He went on to say, “For now, I’m enjoying dating this lovely lady.” The woman on his arm was dressed in a black floor length gown by Badgley Mischka.

The piano man has chosen yet another gorgeous brunette. Other dark-haired beauties in his recent past include his estranged spouse Katie Lee and his rebound romance with actress Alex Donnelly – see photos below.
