Paris Hilton doesn't know who the hell Chris Pine is, but another oozing H'wood club lover sure does! Audrina Patridge not only knows who Cap'n Kirk 2.0 is, but what, exactly, to do with him, to boot.

The two babes, as I'm sure you know, were seen at Silverlake bar Red Lion Tavern this past weekend, and were also spotted leaving Pine's apartment the next morning, separately, but just a few moments apart. Way to keep it discreet! Why not just wear a sandwich board screaming "Stop Paying Attention to Me!"?

But…is Aud just dating the dude to get back at Conrad replacement blonde Kristin Cavallari? Spencer Pratt himself gives us the deets on the new drama certain to be on the next season of The Hills:

Says Spencer to E! News exclusively about Patridge in a Pine tree: "That makes me laugh really hard because I could have sworn that's who [Cavallari] wanted to date and go out with a month ago. I love that these two are already at it."

So what started their beef anyway? Is Aud totally bummed she didn't get promoted to the starring role on The Hills? "Audrina went after Chris after the Audrina-Kristin stuff at the wedding happened," dishes Spence, referring to K-Cav's rumored hookup with Aud's ex Justin Bobby.

"When I was standing at the altar, the first thing that came to my mind looking into the crowd, that was so out of place, was Kristin and Justin all cuddled up next to each other in the pew."

OK, we'll just bypass that that's what was going through Spencer's mind right before getting hitched. Whatev. So is this hookup just for show? Pratty thinks maybe not, since Aud didn't pose in front of the paps with her Pine beau: "If Audrina is dodging a photo op, you know something's suspect."

And Mrs. Pratt's opinion? Heidi Montag doesn't know the real deal, but says, "They look like they make a cute couple."

Do you agree, readers? Or should movie stars and reality-TV stars only date their own kind?
