Gerard Butler: Oscar Stud

March 7th, 2010 by admin

Giving all the ladies in the house a reason to swoon, Gerard Butler made his arrival at the 82nd Annual Academy Awards earlier tonight (March 7).

The “P.S. I Love You” hunk looked handsome as he strolled around outside the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, sporting a black tuxedo.

And rather than bringing a Hollywood hottie on his arm, Gerard has elected to go stag to this year’s Oscars.

He explained, “I’m not taking a date — unless I have a serious girlfriend, which probably a lot of people know is very rare. There are enough rumors about what’s going on in my life without sparking another one.”
