Sir Paul McCartney and Renée Zellweger turned plenty of heads as they flirted up a storm at a US concert — but at least one onlooker was less than thrilled by the celebrity pairing.
Former supermodel Christie Brinkley appeared to be annoyed as Renée moved in on Sir Paul at a Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers gig in the Hamptons — scowling as the actress smiled, laughed and hung on his every word during a cosy interlude with the Beatles legend.
“Christie was casting less-than-delighted glimpses in their direction,” says a spywitness.
Just weeks ago Christie and Sir Paul sparked romance rumours with their own telling body language at the same venue. The pair even slow-danced, with the former Mrs Billy Joel seen resting her head on his shoulder.
“Christie is a huge fan of Sir Paul,” says a friend. “She would love to get to know him better.”
Renée’s flirting wasn’t the only reason she drew stares at the concert — her gaunt appearance also sparked comments.
“It’s almost as if she is wasting away,” says a fellow concert goer. “Her legs and arms are incredibly thin.”
While the star famously stacked on 13 kilos to play Bridget Jones, she has since adopted a strict macrobiotic diet and exercises two hours a day.

Update (September 3, 2007): Renee and Paul were spotted on a dinner date together on Thursday. They entered and exited the restaurant separately but spent more than two hours in deep conversation over a romantic candlelit dinner.
