Newly single “Gladiator” star Russell Crowe is striking out in the dating game, insiders told The National ENQUIRER.
“Russell’s chasing women who are way out of his league and people are laughing at him behind his back!” a friend of the fading heartthrob told The ENQUIRER.
“It’s embarrassing to watch. Russell’s out of practice, and he keeps trying his luck with women who are either unavailable or unattainable. He’s looking for love in all the wrong places!”
The pudgy 50-year-old big-screen “Robin Hood” has failed miserably with several A-list ladies, including his “L.A. Confidential” co-star Kim Basinger and even ex-lover Meg Ryan, sources said.
Now he’s drooling over sultry 35-year-old Ukrainian beauty Olga Kurylenko, his co-star in the upcoming film “The Water Diviner.”
