Mary-Kate Olsen is either hooking up with Josh Hartnett or Sam Ronson

Last week, Us Weekly announced that Mary-Kate Olsen broke up with her boyfriend, hipster artist Nate Lowman. Nate and MK had been dating for something like a year, but the way Us Weekly reported the split, it sounded like MK had been done with Nate for a while. Anyway, that hasn’t stopped the tabloids from reporting that MK has been “devastated” post-split, but that she’s rallying quite well with a string of hookups. Last week, the rumor was that MK and Josh Hartnett had something going on. This week? MK plus Samantha Ronson equals true love.

Mary-Kate Olsen hasn’t been lonely since breaking up with artist Nate Lowman! She was seen making out with Josh Hartnett in public – but behind closed doors, it’s Lindsay Lohan’s ex Samantha Ronson, 32, who’s been getting close to the twin, 23, an insider tells Star.

“Mary-Kate thinks Sam is very cool, and Sam thinks likewise.”

The two, whose flirty relationship raised eyebrows in 2008, had an especially memorable evening after Sam’s sister Charlotte’s fashion show in NYC on Feb. 12, adds the insider.

“Mary-Kate was incredibly upset about ending it with Nate, but now she’s getting over it.”

Eh. I think MK and Sam are probably just close friends, honestly. There’s even a photo of them hanging out at some point over the last few years. But how great would it be – purely from a gossipy crack drama view – if MK and Sam actually started dating? I mean, Lindsay Lohan would seriously go crazy. The crack tweeting would go wild, and there would be crack drama every night as Lindsay showed up (or, “stalked”) Sam and MK to various clubs around the world. Which makes me think that this may be too good to be true.

    Oh Josh, what did you do to yourself? The horror! The horror!

  2. Roma says:

    Wait, wasn’t Mary-Kate the one who was tied to Heath Ledger? As was Lindsay Lohan at one point?

    Oh, I hope that it’s true that MK is now with Sam Ronson… The LL fall-out would be epic!

    *please*please*please*please*be*true*

  3. Erin says:

    That picture of Josh Hartnett is PRICELESS. Is he getting in character to play a goat herder in the Andes?

  4. Icecat says:

    Remember one of the fights between Lilo and Sam was, because Sam, was talking to MK in the DJ booth and Lilo freaked out screaming “get away from my girlfriend”. If my memory serves this is what allegedly happened. Maybe Lilo had good reason to be jealous. Not that she isn’t jealous of anything or anybody that talks to Sam. I think it would be just grand if they hooked up.. haha.

    I guess I’m just sick in the head for wanting to see the backlash off this??

  5. Icecat says:

    Oh I fogot to mention I think MK looks very pretty in that picture above!

    Josh Harnett – Not so much, but I’ve never been *into* him…

  6. lucy2 says:

    That’s the best I’ve seen MK look in a while. Can’t figure out why anyone would be attracted to Sam, but to each their own. I never cared for JH all that much, and that photo is pretty bad!
    I can’t even image the LL reaction to that. MK would have to hide for a while.

  7. bellaluna says:

    Ewww on both counts.

    But I’d absolutely LOVE to follow the crack-tweeting drama that would ensue if the MK/Ronson rumour is true. Does that make me a bad person? *smiles*

  8. Stella says:

    Oh Josh Harnett, say it isn’t so! *weeps*

  9. Jazz says:

    Watch out MK! Lindsay will get you for that!

  10. GracieXDoes says:

    Here’s to wishing for MK & SamRo!! The scoop would be fantabulous, lol.

  11. Hayley says:

    Samro is actually very cute in person. She just doesn’t always photograph well. I have seen plenty of straight girls (including yours truly) develop a crush on her after meeting her.
    Mk and Samro would be awesome together.

  12. Daisy says:

    sam is disgusting,and frankly she creeps me out.

  13. Maritza says:

    I really hope she doesn’t hook up with neither of them, she is a cute kid who deserves better.

  14. El Predicto says:

    Put glasses and a wispy mustache on Samantha ( you know she has props) and she looks remarkably like JH. Twin fuglies!

  15. Carrie says:

    Oh God, whether it is true or not, just spread the rumor!! The rumor is all LL needs to begin the crack-tweeting!

  16. Tia C says:

    Probably is too good to be true, but what fun that would be!

    @ Lucy 2: I can’t figure out why anyone would be attracted to Sam, either. She must be very charismatic in person or something. It does not translate to photographs, that’s for sure!

  17. rohan_love says:

    I think, sam only loves lilo, coz they’ve been going on for two years, that’s not a short time for a relationship.. But if MK loves Sam, it’s allright..cuz sam is a very cool and kind person..

  18. city says:

    is it just me, or do MK and Josh look alike in these pics??

  19. atlanta says:

    Ronson is way, way better looking in person. That is also a really bad picture celebitchy used of her. She is actually cute (but very thin) looking and has shit loads of swagger and a kind of i dont give a shit attitude which is sexy to a lot of women.

    I want this rumor to be true too!! The entertainment value would be epic!!

  20. mollination says:

    MK is a majah upgrade. Ever since the olsen twins split up the sugary-sweet-tween-show act I’ve really liked them. They seem so mature, articulate, savvy, and intelligent. Not to mention they’re freakin cool without trying too hard, and they lack the sense of entitlement that their peers who HAVEN’T earned their way have.

    Oh, and I also think it’s entirely possible she flirts with SamRo. I have a cute masc.lezzie friend and I always find myself drawn to a flirty behavior with her, but I’m totally not into dating girls. Just sayin’. I think there’s something about that energy that’s sexy.

  21. kimberly says:

    aren’t these 3 alleged drug users? I’ve heard drug talk over the years about all three, as well as Heath Ledger (MK’s friend)

  22. Tia says:

    Sam is veryyy hot in person. They never choose good photos. Alot of women like Sam. This would make sense to me that MK also has a crush on her and wants to be with her.

  23. Tinsy says:

    The bleach blond hair does nothing for her but if you look at the pictures of her with her brunette pixie she is cute.

    I saw Josh in London at a play “Rain Man” (character Charlie Babbitt) and was amazing, he’s a great actor.
    I’ve seen in person and is very handsome
