KAT VON D CHOOSES TO IGNORE JESSE JAMES’ TRACK RECORD

Something is going on here and it’s more than romance. Suddenly Jesse James is ENJOYING having paparazzi trail him. He’s POSING. (Remember, if Jesse were seeing an unknown stripper, paps probably wouldn’t be following him.) He and Kat Von D visited her tattoo shop L.A. Ink with great fanfare, they went to gas up her Bentley, and then they had lunch at the super high visibility Urth Caffe in West Hollywood. On top of that, Kat, 28, confessed that she’s in “love” with Jesse and that he’s “The One” at a red carpet event last night. Can you imagine her leaping into this relationship without an ounce of caution? There’s more to this than meets the eye.

WE TOLD YOU SO: JESSE JAMES AND KAT VON D ARE DATING!

Back in June we told you that Sandra Bullock was aware that her estranged husband Jesse James was a big fan of L.A. Ink reality star Kat Von D while they were still married. At that time she didn’t suspect any funny business on Jesse’s part. Sneaky Jesse made it clear to Kat that he’d like to hook up – however, she never responded. (And we admired her for that.) Now that Jesse’s divorce is over, Kat apparently relented and she and Jesse were seen together in Las Vegas this weekend, dining at the Palms and holding hands, according to People magazine. So Jesse got his wish in the end.

NIKKI SIXX HAS MOVED ON FROM KAT VON D – OR SO IT APPEARS

Is Nikki Sixx trying to tell his exgirlfriend Kat Von D (L.A. Ink) something by showing up at Bardot Lounge with this exhibitionistic blonde date? Motley Crue bassist Nikki, 51, and Kat, 27, were together for almost three years and looked incredibly happy until last January. They suddenly split and won’t talk about WHY. We think Nikki looked a lot better when he was with Kat. (lower photo)

UPDATE: It’s a relief to learn that Nikki hasn’t changed THAT much since he split with Kat – astute readers believe this guy is Steve Stevens, Billy Idol’s guitarist.
