Since splitting with Americal Idol and E mogul Ryan Seacrest, Julianne Hough has not been photographed with another man. While her TV mogul ex has been spotted holidaying with his rumored new girlfriend Dominique Piek in the South of France, Rock of Ages star Julianne has been seen out and about with her girlfriends enjoying the single life, with no new man in sight. 

But things changed a bit last week, when Julianne was spotted on a very intimate dinner with a Ryan look-alike who was later revealed to be the director Ari Sandel. Sandel won an Oscar for his short film West Bank story in 2006.

The new couple were dining at hot spot Nobu and there seemed to be more kissing going on than eating. We were always sure Julianne would be snapped up quickly and are glad to see her moving on and with an Oscar-winning hottie boyfriend at that!
