Charlize Theron has auctioned a date with herself for charity.

The 35-year-old actress - who has been single since splitting from long-term boyfriend Stuart Townsend earlier this year - offered to attend a Los Angeles Lakers basketball game with whoever bid the highest for a pair of court-side tickets at a fundraiser in New York last night (06.12.10).

James Blunt is reportedly dating Jessica Sutta.

The 'You're Beautiful' hitmaker approached the former Pussycat Dolls star - who he was previously romantically linked to five years ago - after his performance at Drai's club in the W Hollywood Hotel, and they were seen passionately kissing before leaving the Los Angeles venue together.
