(Feb. 2) -- All it took was a photo of a girl in George Clooney's car to set the celeb gossip world aflutter, as one of Hollywood's biggest bachelors may (or may not) be off of the market.
The dashingly handsome and famously unmarried Clooney has yet to speak out or even identify his passenger-seat companion, but that hasn't stopped blogs from speculating on all things about her, ranging from who she even is to her and Clooney's status.

The Clooney Car Girl Mystery

    George Clooney and his mystery passenger are seen here on January 24. According to the information provided by the photo distributor, the two went to dinner and then went to Clooney's house afterwards.

    Blogger Perez Hilton said on his site that Clooney's gal looks quite a bit like Eliot Spitzer escort, Ashley Dupre. As far as anyone can tell, it's definitely not her.

    The random girl in the previous photos is the first female Clooney has been spotted with since his relationship with Sarah Larson ended in May of 2008.

    Things between Clooney and Larson seemed extremely strong, as the couple stayed together even after a motorcycle accident left Larson with a broken foot.

    As their relationship went on, however, some less-than-desirable photos of Larson -- a former cocktail waitress -- made their way into the public, making many wonder whether she was the good girl she seemed to be.

    In this photo hosted on WWTDD.com, Larson is seen in a pose that ... do we really need to explain? Needless to say, the couple were officially done not long after the photos were exposed.

When the photos hit the public in late January, blogger Perez Hilton, in his trademark white-writing-on-photos style, asked "Who Are You?" in a picture of Clooney's friend. He then goes on to note that she looks quite a bit like Ashley Dupre, the escort who was linked to former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer. (Don't worry, it's not her).
TMZ has identified the woman ... sort of. They claim she's a serial game show contestant, citing three possible names: Katie, Kate or Stephanie Moeser. The TMZ reports claims Katie/Kate/Stephanie has been on four television game shows, including 'Trivial Pursuit,' 'Hollywood Squares,' 'The Price is Right' and 'Don't Forget the Lyrics,' banking more than $350,000 in winnings along the way.
There's no way to tell if TMZ's ID job is correct, but at this point they're the only media outlet to put a name on the woman ... even if they gave her three.
Whoever she is, Clooney's "car girl" is the first possible romantic link the Oscar-winning actor has had since his split from Sarah Larson in May of 2008.
