Following in the footsteps of fellow musician Marilyn Manson, British pop star Robbie Williams has reportedly hooked up with a much younger actress.

According to reports, Williams is dating "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" star Michelle Trachtenberg.

The couple, who have a 13-year age difference, have been spotted around L.A. shopping spots such as Fred Segal.

London's News Of The World newspaper, which broke the story, say that Williams' lack of chart success in the U.S. has made him anonymous, which is helping the new relationship.

A source told the publication, "Robbie really likes Michelle - he especially loves her sense of humor. They're having a great time just hanging out. As we all know, Robbie doesn't have a high celebrity profile in the States despite many attempts to launch his career over there. So as far as Michelle is concerned, she's just spending time with a normal bloke from a place called Stoke. That's just how Rob likes it."

Williams has previously been linked to Rod Stewart's ex-wife Rachel Hunter
