Orlando Bloom's Cruz double

(BANG) - Orlando Bloom has been on a date with a Penélope Cruz look-alike.

Orlando has been seen having dinner with a woman who looks just like Penélope - who he was rumoured to be dating - at New York's Nobu Next Door restaurant on Thursday night (22.03.07).

A source told the New York Daily News newspaper: "He was with a smoking-hot, tall, Spanish-looking girl, very made up, very much a Penélope Cruz wanna-be. She was hot.

"Not classy like Penélope, but more of a showgirl hotness.

"There was a lot of flirting going on."

Penélope and Orlando were last seen together at Prince's post-Oscars party in February, where they were said to be kissing passionately all night.

A source said at the time: "Penélope and Orlando couldn't keep their hands off one another - they were making out the whole night.

"It was crazy! Touching, kissing - even a little bit of groping. And in view of tons of actors, too, like Leonardo DiCaprio."

Orlando and Penélope have never confirmed they are an item.
