Are Lara Bingle and Jason Derulo an item?

SYDNEY - Jason Derulo has reportedly invited Lara Bingle and a couple of girlfriends to his Brisbane show.

Lara flirted with Derulo on-air while co-presenting an award at Sunday’s ARIA Awards.

The pair was seen doing the Bondi to Bronte walk when the sun came out, with reports she picked him up from his hotel before taking the scenic route.

“Yes, that is true. They became friends at the ARIAs and he invited her and a couple of friends to his show. Lara also took Jason and his posse on the walk,” the Sydney Morning Herald quoted a friend as saying.

Insider reports also say that despite some talk a few months back, Bingle will not be filling in for radio presenter Jackie O, who goes on maternity leave shortly.

She was called in at the last minute to replace O on Friday morning when O called in sick on Thursday night, with reports she had spent the night at the Mater Hospital.

“Lara is definitely not doing the show when Jackie goes,” a well-informed radio insider said.

While Kyle Sandilands’s manager Andrew Hawkins would not divulge any further information - “we can’t say who it is” - word has it that Sophie Monk is definitely a frontrunner for keeping the 2DayFM seat warm. (ANI)
