Hot New Couple Alert!

  

It’s not been confirmed, but according to their friends, Petra Nemcova,28 and Sean Penn,47 have been spending quite a bit of time together lately.  The two spent a lot of time together last night for the Oscars and the after parties and according to pals they also hit up Villa the night before.

The two arrived together (or, at least, simultaneously) at the Elton John AIDS Foundation screening party.  Although they separated briefly, he did an interview while she posed for pictures, they eventually reunited for the cameras, as Penn wrapped his arm around her for a few photos.  They then arrived together at Villa Nightclub.

When asked about her escort, Nemcova, wearing a custom-designed Roberto Cavalli dress, would only tell PEOPLE, “Yes, we are friends. He is on the advisory board of my charity.”

Sean and his wife of 11 years seperated less than two months ago.
