Newly single Jessica Simpson is the likely the most sought after single white female in Hollywood. The buxom blonde has put on a brave face since announcing her split with Nick Lachey and though she has been spotted out in groups with hunky stars, the question remains - is she dating at all?

She\'s been linked to Trace Ayala, Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine, and even actors Josh Lucas and Jude Law.

Yes- Jude Law.

Fashion Monitor Toronto does a good job on the tabloid round up from Us Weekly:

The web site reports:

Jessica Simpson and her camp told Us Weekly not to believe stories that newly almost single Jessica Simpson is dating Justin Timberlake\'s best friend Trace Ayala.

"Trace is just a silly friend they hang out with," said the insider. "She is not with him."

***

What about Adam Levine?

The insider insisted, "She thinks the attention is flattering, but she is not hooking up with any of them."

Adam also is furiously denying the rumors, insisting they blown "way out of proportion."

Still - the pair played together at an LA hotspot in late January, but Adam left the bar at 1:30am alone.

Misdirection by Jessica? Perhaps.

Simpson\'s rep declined comment on the love rumors.
