Demi Moore gets photographed with new boyfriend the same week as Mila and Ashton go public. Coincidence? (PICS/ VID)

Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher were photographed making kissy face this week.. So how did scorned ex-wife Demi Moore respond? Not with a case of red bull and a bottle of whip-its… She staged her own cougar photo-op with another young hot kid.

Demi Moore (49) was photographed on this ‘romantic getaway’ in Connecticut with this 37-year old relatively unheard of actor, Martin Henderson. (See some of his work below.) They were spotted at a diner, grocery shopping together (the new tell-tell sign of coupledom) and then drove together to the house that they are staying with on their vacation.

The way Life and Style is talking up this ‘romance’, it makes me wonder if this is a PR move by Demi’s publicist. She’s been getting all the negative publicity since she left rehab because she’s been on a downward spiral, her children are going wild and everyone is turning against her. She needs some good pub so she doesn’t seem so cray and desperate. And this guy Martin could just go along with it to get some good publicity by pretending to be Demi’s arm candy for a minute.

Or who knows.. Maybe it really is just another cougar love story.

Check out the pics. What do you think?

Martin was in Britney Spears’ Toxic vid. He’s the last guy that she messes around with at the end of the vid.

And he’s Naomi’s baby daddy in the movie The Ring. Here’s his death scene.

And here’s more pics from their date.
