The Gossip Girl actress was spotted dining with Drew Barrymore's ex in Hollywood this week.

Could we have a new A-list couple on the cards? The rumour mill certainly thinks so after Gossip Girl Leighton Meester was recently spotted enjoying a bit of alone time with actor Justin Long at a Hollywood restaurant.

The pair dined at popular hotspot La Poubelle, reportedly holding hands outside after their romantic meal for two.

Onlookers claim the couple whiled away two hours in the restaurant, staying until past midnight. They even paused to sign autographs, and were extremely open about their date.

Since splitting from fellow GG star Sebastian Stan last year, the 25-year-old actress had been linked to her Country Strong co-star Garret Hedlund, while her potential new beau has been involved in an on-again off-again relationship with Drew Barrymore since 2007.

As of yet, neither party has decided to comment – but watch this space!
