It looks like Lizzo may have some competition.

While neither the singer nor the actor have said anything about this hearsay, it hasn't stopped fans from investigating the gossip.

Earlier this month, the two were caught leaving the same restaurant in Los Angeles, albeit separately.

Yet fans suspect Selena and Chris did this as a ploy to not draw attention to themselves.

Days earlier, they were also spotted exiting the same studio at different times.

Not much longer after that, the Marvel alum followed the singer on Instagram.

Sure, it could all be coincidental, and there are other stories claiming the actors could also be working together on a project. But the two wouldn't be the first to try and pull the "leave separately" stunt to keep the public away.

Plus, they're both single!

Chris Evans was last romantically linked to Lily James in 2020.

As for the Heart Wants What It Wants artist's, she split from The Weeknd in 2018 and has been single since.

Additionally, the former Disney star did admit to having a crush on the Captain America star in 2015.

Though these are just rumors, in a world where Bennifer 2.0 has happened, anything is possible.
