American Idol Romance For Lindsay Lohan and Chris Richardson?

American Idol finalist Chris Richardson may not have Sanjaya Malakar's hair but the handsome young singer has been compared to 'SexyBack' singer Justin Timberlake. And like JT, who had reportedly roped in Scarlett Johansson and Jessica Biel and even possibly Alyssa Milano, since his split with longtime love Cameron Diaz, Chris has been linked with idol castoff Alaina Alexander and now A-lister Lindsay Lohan. Veteran gossip columnist Mike Walker reports that La Lohan was partying at Les Deux on March 21 with dismissed Idol contestant Brandon Rogers and current idol hottie Chris.

The report claims the freshly rehabbed Lohan (did that take at all?) was flirting heavily with Chris. So - what happened? Nothing according to Walker.

Chris gracefully gave Lindsay the brush off and left the club with Brandon, according to the report. So - did he make a mistake? Would a Lohan hook-up given him a buzz to rival Sanjaya? TV Cocktail at iVillage gives the stats for the singer.

Status: The blogosphere is a bit divided on this one. Chris isn't fessing up to being taken or single. It seems there is a lady back at home, but they may have called it quits at some point during the competition.

You've seen him: In the top nine contestants on season six of American Idol -- and possibly, if you're into this kind of thing, at the Hooters in Chesapeake, where he was a supervisor before coming on Idol.

Why we love him: Whether he wins or not, we could listen to this Idol contestant sing forever. Besides his soulful voice and piercing eyes, there is his down-to-earth attitude and sexy fashion style... the fact that he says his parents are his own American Idols... his penchant for poetry... and there is really no denying his resemblance to Justin Timberlake, now is there?
