Most Random Hookups of 2011: Ashley Olsen & Justin Timberlake, Scarlett Johansson & Sean Penn
2011 is about to come to a close in just a few short weeks, so why not take a look back at some of the oddest and most random hookups that went down in Hollywood! From Ashley Olsen & Justin Timberlake to ScarJo & Sean Penn (still super weird), it seemed that nobody wanted to be lonely throughout the year.
Some hookups within past 12 months made sense, while others left us scratching our heads and wondering what they were thinking! So sit back, relax, and let Hollywire bring you the most random hookups in 2011!
The Couple: Wilmer Valderama & Demi Lovato
The Back Story: These two were pretty hot and heavy before splitting prior to Demi dating Joe Jonas. But, the two reunited in early November this year after being caught locking lips in public!
Why it’s Random: Demi dating Joe, yes it makes sense. But Wilmer? Well, for one thing, there’s the age difference (he’s 31, she’s 19). Also, when you found out these two were hooking up, did you not go, “What?!” Yeah, that’s what we thought.

The Couple: Penn Badgley & Zooey Kravitz
The Back Story: After splitting from co-star Blake Lively, it seemed like Lonely Boy Penn was going to be lonely for a while. Um, not quite! The two were spotted all around NYC showing off some serious PDA.
Why it’s Random: Blake and Zooey are two completely different gals. Penn went from blonde, long-legged bombshell to edgy Zooey. But we have to admit, this seems like more his type.
The Couple: Ryan Gosling & Eva Mendes
The Back Story: These two got the rumor mills spinning when they were spotted at Disneyland over Labor Day weekend this year. They were later seen taking a stroll in Paris in November while Eva was filming her latest flick Holly Motors.
Why it’s Random: These two are some of the hottest stars in Hollywood, but never would we actually expect them to get together!

The Couple: Scarlett Johansson & Sean Penn
The Back Story: ScarJo split from hubby Ryan Reynolds and didn’t wait too long until she was in the arms of Sean Penn in early March. After many months of vacations, dates, and a public appearance here and there, the two split in June.
Why it’s Random: Okay, random hookups are supposed to happen in Hollywood, but this one I still can’t believe happened. Where did this even come from?! How did this even happen?! I have no words.
The Couple: Kanye West & Mary-Kate Olsen
The Back Story: This whole story began when MK was spotted smooching with West in NYC while celebrating his 34th birthday.
Why it’s Random: What happened to little Michelle Tanner?! Never did we expect to hear our little, blonde, bohemian fashionasta would be snuggling up to scene-stealer Kanye!
The Couple: Ashley Olsen & Justin Timberlake
The Back Story: Ashley split from long-time bf Justin Bartha and was spotted strolling around NYC with then-single JT. There was never a confirmation or denial on this hot couple.
Why it’s Random: These two both got their start during the 90’s, but who would have thought they would be reunited in 2011?! And hooking up?!
The Couple: Rachel McAdams & Michael Sheen
The Back Story: These two met and started their relationship back in 2010. Though they tried to keep it on the DL, they were spotted holding back and kissing in public.
Why it’s Random: While these two do seem genuinely happy, we will never forget the good ole days of Ryan and Rachel. #TheNotebook4Ever

The Couple: Taylor Lautner & Dianna Agron
The Back Story: These two were spotted having dinner together in Venice, California back in October. We haven’t heard much about them since but this definitely makes the cut for random hookup!

The Back Story: The newest reported hookup all began when they were spotted holding hands after a Saturday Night Live wrap- up party earlier this month.
