Reggie Bush ain't going back to the Kardashian well ... telling TMZ he's 100% NOT dating his old flame Kim ... despite an expensive lunch date this weekend.

Reggie was hanging out on Rodeo Drive in Bev Hills when we asked if he was back on with his reality ex. Reggie couldn't have been more clear -- hell no.

TMZ broke the story ... Reg and Kim were spotted on a lunch date at the Beverly Hills Hotel this weekend.

Sometimes a really expensive salad is just a really expensive salad ... but sometimes it's not.

Kim Kardashian has REUNITED with her ex-boyfriend Reggie Bush ... breaking bread with the NFL player at the Beverly Hills Hotel this weekend ... TMZ has learned.

Multiple sources tell us ... the two were smiling and laughing during the lunch date ... and played it cool when fans approached them for pictures and autographs.

We're told it seemed just like old times ... before Kim went off and married/divorced that other guy whose name we can't remember.

Sources say the two have been spending A LOT of time together in the past few days ... but it's unclear if it's a full-on reconciliation.

Reggie Bush hit an L.A. hotspot last night ... partying like he just won the Super Bowl -- problem is, his winless Miami Dolphins JUST had their asses handed to them by the San Diego Chargers.

Bush was spotted at XIV in Hollywood around 10PM last night -- gripping a Corona while go-go dancers in body paint danced their faces off and people wearing glowsticks ... did whatever it is that people wearing glowsticks do.

Roughly six hours before the party, Bush wrapped up another lackluster performance on the field ... rushing for a mere 50 yards during a 26-16 loss in San Diego.

For the record, Bush is a grown-ass man and can do whatever the hell he wants in his downtime -- but it's a questionable move for a guy who's been HEAVILY criticized for playing like crap this season.

TMZ placed multiple calls to Reggie's agent for comment -- so far, no response.

Reggie Bush still only has eyes for girls who look like Kim Kardashian -- as he was spotted out once again with hottie Melissa Molinaro at Playhouse in Hollywood Friday night. 


It's okay if you have a type ... if that type is smokin' hot. 

Reggie Bush has only been dating his new Kim Kardashian-alike girlfriend for a few months ... but TMZ has learned he's already traveled half-way around the world to prove his commitment.



Bush's new chick is actress and singer Melissa Molinaro -- who was famously compared to Kim K for the way she looked in an Old Navy commercial earlier this year.

Sources close to the couple tell TMZ ... the two met roughly two years ago through mutual friends ... but stayed platonic because they were both seeing other people at the time.

We're told the pair reconnected last summer -- after Reggie and the "real" Kim parted ways -- and became "official" by Christmas.

Things have been heating up fast -- the two have been spotted at the movies, at church ... and Reggie even hopped a flight to London earlier this month to watch Melissa perform at a London nightclub.

Dedication.

The USC Trojans are no longer your 2004 college football national champions.



The Bowl Championship Series just announced the organization has stripped the University of Southern California of the title after an investigation proved Reggie Bush and his family received improper benefits while he was playing for the Trojans.

The NCAA had already stripped USC of its wins in which Bush participated -- including the 2005 Orange Bowl -- but the BCS was waiting to make a decision on the national championship title because USC had appealed the NCAA ruling.

But the NCAA rejected the appeal -- and today the BCS went ahead with their plans to strip USC of the title ... which means USC's 55-19 victory over Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl was all for naught.

Bush won the Heisman Trophy for his 2005 season -- but forfeited the award last year amidst rumors that the NCAA was going to take that away from him too.

And there was much joy in Westwood.

The Kim Kardashian curse lives on ... because Reggie Bush has had it ROUGH since he stopped dating her -- and the New Orleans Saints' NFL draft pick Mark Ingram just made things WAY worse.

In today's second gay-themed celebrity Twitter of the day, Reggie Bush asks: If someone says "no homo," is that offensive towards gay people?



For those unfamiliar, the term "no homo" is used (often in rap lyrics) to qualify a statement or compliment to a member of the same sex that they feel could come off as sounding "gay."

Although we're not Dr. Phil, we have interviewed him, and we're sure he'd say use of the term reveals an insecure need to prove one's heterosexuality by simultaneously distancing themselves as far as possible from being thought of as ... wait for it ... a gay person.

So is it offensive? Well, imagine if someone said, "I love rap music ... No black." Or ... "I'd like a bagel ... No Jew."

Seems the answer to your question Reggie ... is yes.   

Kim Kardashian's new rumored BF is an athlete ... again ... which means she's just about racked up enough sports stars to start her own franchise. Can't wait to see the team logo.

Reggie Bush is gonna have a lot of free space on his mantle -- because the disgraced former USC running back says he's decided to "forfeit" his 2005 Heisman Trophy.



Bush just released a statement through the New Orleans Saints in which he explains, "Each individual carries the legacy of the award and each one is entrusted with its good name ... It is for these reasons that I have made the difficult decision to forfeit my title as Heisman winner of 2005."

Bush added, "The persistent media speculation regarding allegations dating back to my years at USC has been both painful and distracting.  In no way should the storm around these allegations reflect in any way on the dignity of this award, nor on any other institutions or individuals.  Nor should it distract from outstanding performances and hard-earned achievements either in the past, present or future."

Just a few days ago, Reggie clamped up when we asked him about the Heisman controversy in New York.

FYI -- Bush is the first player to ever return the award.

Reggie's decision comes in the wake of a report that the Heisman committee was going to strip him of the title in the near future.

UPDATE: Bush is already addressing the issue on his Twitter page -- saying, "Now that this is behind me I look forward to the future and winning more awards and championships here in New Orleans! Who Dat!"
