He Said She Said: Jessica Chastain Breaking Her No-Actors Dating Rule?

Oscar nominee Jessica Chastain, star of Kathryn Bigelow's "Zero Dark Thirty," is sticking to her guns. Earlier this year, she told Britain's InStyle magazine she does not date actors. Now, the 35-year old knockout is denying dating rumors surrounding her and "Thor" star Tom Hiddleston.

Reports have bubbled up these past two weeks linking the breakout star to Hiddleston, claiming she had visited his family and friends in the U.K. this past Christmas. She completely denies the rumors. "Why would they say that?" she told USA Today. "It's not true at all. It's funny, two weeks ago I was dating. I'm not dating."

We all know that tabloid fodder is not the most trustworthy of news sources, so we'll chock this up to hot air until her self-imposed "no actors" law is undeniably broken. Chastain has a lot more to worry about than dating rumors: she has a decent shot at winning Best Actress at the upcoming Oscars ceremony, on February 24, for her critically acclaimed performance in "Zero Dark Thirty," which was nominated for a total of five Oscars.
