Jennifer Lopez shields her face after being caught out with Bradley Cooper'

Jennifer Lopez has never been known to be shy and retiring but a woman who is said to be the American Idol judge was surprisingly coy while out with Bradley Cooper yesterday.

She shielded her face as she sat in the passenger seat of Cooper's car as they drove around Los Angeles.

Bradley initially covered his face too but ultimately had to reveal himself to keep his eyes on the road while in control of the jeep.

The woman, who was casual with her hair in a ponytail and wore a light brown sweater was careful about her face not being seen with the Hangover star.


However a source told People magazine that Lopez and Cooper spent time together on Saturday although reps for both Hollywood stars did not respond to MailOnline for a comment on the matter.

The actor picked up the Best Thriller Award at last night's Scream Awards so maybe Lopez was on hand to help him celebrate.

Lopez, 42, and Cooper, 37, have been seen together before but maintained that it was just a professional meeting.

They had dinner at Per Se restaurant in the Big Apple last month.

'After their date in New York, Bradley and Jennifer stayed in touch,' an insider told the magazine.

'She does like his attention and it makes her feel good that he seems so into her.
She has a fun time with Bradley and he makes her laugh. She likes him.'

Meanwhile TMZ are reporting that the pair are dating 'casually' but are 'definitely dating'.
Sources told the site that although they are not in a serious relationship and calling each other boyfriend and girlfriend, they are spending quality time together.

Jennifer ended her seven-year marriage to Latin singer Marc Anthony earlier this year and the former couple have three-year-old twins Max and Emme.

Bradley's two-year-relationship with Renee Zellweger came to a halt in March.

He has also been linked with Olivia Wilde and Jennifer Aniston in the past.
