IS THAT HIS GIRLFRIEND?

Connie Britton and Taylor Kitsch were in New York last night at the 6th Annual African Children’s Choir Changemakers Gala. As you can see, Kitsch has gone short, perhaps for True Detective? HBO hasn’t officially released anything confirming that he’s on season 2. I mean, he’s been telling people that, but, really, the only two names that are considered locked are Colin Farrell and Vince Vaughn. Not yet on Rachel McAdams as well, even though so many of you are already trying Gossip Genie them together.

Well. He has a girlfriend. See the blonde woman sitting next to him? Her name is Jennifer Welch. Have been together for a while apparently, started dating in Austin. She was with him at a Stars hockey game in April – click here for a refresher.

I like his hair this length. Those sideburns before were getting a little gross.
