Celebrity Couplings

Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel are getting serious despite rumors that he danced with a woman that wasn't Jess while he was in New York last week. The last time Jessica was in New York, she was looking at jewelry, specifically rings, and sources tell me that Justin's mom, Lynn Harless, is dying to be a grandmother.

Jessica was spotted shopping in SoHo - one of her favorite pastimes when she's in the city. She popped into SoHo Gem jewelry store where she looked at the store's antique rings - the store is well-known for their engagement rings. After some time trying on jewelry and rings, but not buying, she continued shopping through the city.

My sources tell me, "Justin is definitely not ready for that step, but his mom really likes Jessica and loves dropping hints about how she's getting older and can't wait for grandchildren. Justin and Lynn are close and he's always respected her advice, so eventually she might actually be able to nudge him. She hasn't always loved all the women in his life, but she is particularly fond of Jess and they spend a lot of time together. When they come to New York, the girls will go shopping if they can, while Justin works."

"One small issue they have to work through is their choice of main home city. Jessica loves Los Angeles and especially the warm weather. She is not as infatuated by New York as Justin is, so she picks and chooses her time to travel with him to the city. She doesn't mind the little trips, but she's made it clear that her heart is in the warmer, milder Los Angeles climate."
