Does The Biebs know this?!
Selena Gomez is enjoying new romance with British singer Ed Sheeran, Us Weekly reports.
The "Come & Get It" singer was fixed up with the redheaded songwriter by their mutual pal Taylor Swift, and it seems there was instant chemistry between the pair!
"They are hooking up!" a source tells the mag.
So what attracted Justin Bieber's former lady love to her new beau?
"They are friends with an open mind. He's sensitive and sweet and a lot deeper than Justin," the source adds.
Ouch!
So does this new love match mean SG and JB are over for good?
"She got sick of having to take care of Justin like he was her child. This is a nice escape from the drama," another source reveals.
We still have a feeling we haven't seen the last of Jelena!

She's getting bigger by the day!
Halle Berry grabbed lunch at Chin Chin in West Hollywood yesterday, and the actress wore a blue t-shirt that showed off her rapidly growing baby bump!
The Oscar winner just returned from a Parisian vacation with her French fiance Olivier Martinez, and she might want to get all her traveling out of the way before she gets too far along to fly!
Considering the Monster's Ball star will not be moving overseas anytime soon since her custody agreement with ex Gabriel Aubry prevents it, her unborn son isn't going to have an accent like his daddy!
"My son will be American, but I remain French," the Unfaithful star explained to People recently.
There's one very good looking baby scheduled to arrive in this fall!

Angelina Jolie is one selfless lady.
The Special Envoy for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees set aside her own health troubles to visit Syrian refugees at the Jordan border yesterday. Angelina told the UNHCR office that the embarked on the trip "to show support for Syria's refugees, to call on the world to address their plight, and to better understand needs in Jordan and other countries in the region most directly affected by this devastating conflict."
The actress-turned-activist described the conflict as "the worst humanitarian crisis of the 21st century." The war in Syria has forced 1.6 million people to flee the country in the last year.
She also stressed the importance of political action. "The international response to this crisis falls short of the vast scale of this human tragedy," she said. "Much more humanitarian aid is needed, and above all, a political settlement to this conflict must be found."
Meanwhile, her fiance Brad Pitt is promoting his new apocalyptic flick World War Z. He told red carpet reporters that Angie had "to go across the world for [World] Refugee Day" during the film's New York City premiere.
He also defended Angie's decision to undergo a preventative double mastectomy after breast cancer survivor Melissa Etheridge challenged the Tomb Raider star's choice. "I wouldn't call it the brave choice," Melissa told the Washington Blade on Monday. "I actually think it's the most fearful choice you can make when confronting anything with cancer."
Melissa clarified her controversial remarks today, telling Us Weekly "I don't have any opinion on what she 'should have' done. All are free to choose. I only objected to the term 'brave' in describing it."
Brad, who's old friends with Melissa, told Us that he will talk over the issue with the country rocker. "I'm sure we'll talk on the phone," Brad told the mag. "I think that it's an individual decision and I found it very empowering instead of scary. We experienced the exact opposite."

Justin Bieber and his entourage took a G4 jet to Las Vegas on Wednesday, and this is less than 48 hours after he narrowly escaped being slapped with hit-and-run charges for injuring a photographer on Sunset Blvd.

All the attention suddenly doesn't seem so desirable!
Hot on the heels of Justin Bieber injuring a paparazzo with his white Ferrari at the Laugh Factory on Monday night, his friend Lil' Twist and a pal were in no mood to be photographed as they filled up the pop sensation's ride in Calabasas today.
Lil' Twist's friend got out of the car, approached the photographer, and told him, "Stop filming. Put the camera down, he doesn't want to be filmed." It's not like he's The Biebs for goodness sake!
Lil' Twist needs a reminder that he's nothing more than a friend of someone famous!

Rita Ora is definitely hot right now.
Rita performed at the launch of the new Xperia Access phone at Sony Music's London headquarters yesterday. The "Hot Right Now" singer wore two different revealing, red patent leather dresses for the occasion.
Rita told the small crowd that she feels fortunate to be working on her second studio album after releasing her debut a year ago.
"This past year has been the most surreal part of my life since I've been alive," she said. "But it's pretty awesome and I'm so excited that I get to do a second album."
After the show, Rita stepped it up another notch in a Natalia Kaut bustier dress for the press photocall. Calvin Harris' girlfriend looked smokin' in the curve-hugging outfit, which she paired with black strappy sandals, gold jewelery, and red makeup.
She donned a completely different getup -- a green and gold silk print shirt dress -- while leaving the studio later that day.

If she's upset, she's certainly not showing it!
Selma Blair headed to an office building this morning on the heels of the announcement that she's been fired from her role on Anger Management, and the actress kept it classy by simply giving a smile and a wave when asked about her dismissal and reported feud with co-star Charlie Sheen.
She's too much of a lady to air her dirty laundry!
Just because the Cruel Intentions star won't talk trash about the situation doesn't mean she can't have a good laugh at Charlie's expense!
Asked by our photographer if the former Two and a Half Men star needed anger management himself, the brunette beauty gave a tiny laugh that indicated she's completely fine with others poking fun at the Hollywood bad boy.
