Gerard Butler Flies Jen-less In Rio

Gerard Butler, 40, spent Valentine’s Day in sizzling Rio de Janeiro surrounded by gorgeous Brazilian women, and Jennifer Aniston, who wags had speculated he had been dating, was nowhere to be found. The hunky Scottish actor was spotted at the annual Rio carnival with his 300 costar Brazilian Rodrigo Santoro. He was being chatted up by Brazilian women left and right, including Brazilian actress Rita Guedes, 38.

“It’s the third time I’ve been to Rio and every time I come it’s the same feeling I don’t want to leave,” Butler told British newspaper The Daily Mail. “It is the most beautiful, most wonderful of all cities. I’m thinking about buying property here." Meanwhile, Madonna, her boyfriend Jesus Luz, Paris Hilton and her boyfriend Doug Reinhardt were also spotted at the Carnival festivities. –MANDY COHEN in London
