Gerard Butler has been working on his New York Chelsea district apartment for the past four years. And the results of his (or whomever he paid) efforts will be highlighted in Architectural Digest’s May issue.

The actor and heartthrob said he knew his 3,300-square-foot, two-story loft in New York’s Chelsea district was going to need a lot of work.

“I wanted something elegant and gorgeous and at the same time rather masculine and raw,” Butler said. “I guess I would describe the apartment as bohemian old-world rustic chateau with a taste of baroque.”

The magazine will feature photos of his pad, which is still not yet complete, as well as his decorating inspirations. Film designer Elvis Restaino, who helped bring Butler’s complex vision to life, said “We re-created things that came into Gerry’s life – from his travels in Europe or even from an old coffee shop in New York.”

Butler’s apartment – furnished with 13-foot-tall mahogany doors, crystal chandeliers and limestone lions – is a place “to retreat and spend time on my own,” he said. “New York is such a frenetic, crazy city, so I love to use the place for just some peace and quiet.”

Am I mistaken or was his not-girlfriend Jennifer Aniston recently featured in the same mag?

If Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler aren’t sleeping together…they are very comfortable with each other to say the least.

This candid picture of The Bounty Hunter stars popped up this morning showing Gerry’s hand resting very familiarly  on Jen’s ass. And where is that middle finger?

This picture was taken on the night the two were on their romantic Parisian dinner cruise.

The hair. The legs. The tan. The chin.

Jennifer Aniston looks fab as usual at the London gala premiere of Bounty Hunter. I can count on my hands the number of  movies I’ve liked that Jen has made, but I’m actually excited to see this one. I think pairing these two together was brilliant. The chemistry between them just jumps out of the pictures and knocks you on your butt.

Maybe they could be the newer, sexier, funnier Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks.

Is it odd that Brad Pitt’s buddy Steven Klein is the one that photographed Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler for W magazine? Not really, L.A. is a small town.

Everyone is all a buzz about these steamy pictures..and they do look slick..but a bit too much airbrush for me. And I’m talking about the touch-up on Gerard. He’s looking way too CG 300.

Celebrity coupling rumors are true about 50% of the time, made up for publicity 40% of the time and the other 10% is just bored tabloids needing a headline. I’m hoping the newest gossip about Gerard Butler hooking up with Reese Witherspoon are true.

Reese deserves a manly man after two years of beard-work with Jake Gyllenhaal and it wouldn’t hurt Gerry to settle down for a minute.
