Couple Alert: Bai Ling and Lionel Richie

They often say opposites attract, but Lionel Richie and Bai Ling? Really?

According to Pop Tarts:

The unlikely duo was spotted on what appeared to be a romantic date last Thursday at Whist at Viceroy Santa Monica. According to an eye witness, Ling and Richie kept a low-profile and laughed and flirted throughout their meal.

The actress (who tells people she hails “from the moon” and has a habit of crashing Hollywood parties and dirty dancing for hours by herself) was most recently linked to Mickey Rourke with whom she put on quite the PDA with at the Chateau Marmont earlier this year.

And lets not forget Valentine's Day 2008 when Bai was arrested at LAX for stealing two magazines and batteries. She said it was an "emotionally crazy" day because she had just broke up with her boyfriend. On March 5, 2008 she pled guilty to the charge of disturbing the peace. She was then fined $700.
