Now OK magazine reports the “Fool’s Gold” star is getting cozy with another ex — her ex-husband, Chris Robinson.

Kate and the Black Crowes rocker reportedly were caught in a lip-lock just outside the apartment she shares with their son, Ryder.

“They were really affectionate with each other and gave each other a kiss which lasted much longer than a platonic kiss should last — 20 seconds, maybe a little longer,” an eyewitness revealed. “Without going into all the details, the kiss was more than just friends. They seemed like (there was) something more going on and were very affectionate with each other.”

According to the National Enquirer, Matthew went door-to-door handing out Starbucks gift cards as a goodwill gesture. “Matt doesn’t want to be looked down on in the ’hood as the guy who caused all the problems,” a source said. … Keira Knightly reached for a little liquid courage when she auditioned for a part in “My Fair Lady” before world famous theater producer Cameron Mackintosh. “It was in front of Cameron himself, so the only option was to get drunk,” Keira told Glamour UK. “I probably did slur my words. I can't remember.”  Luckily, she remembers the important bit — she got the part.
