Why is Kat Von D eager to be photographed with Jesse James? It seems that Jesse is trying to shy away from any media attention, but Kat is welcoming it. Heck, I even get a vibe from her that she tipped the paps off where they were having breakfast!

More pictures of Kat and Jesse after the ink…

Kat admitted their relationship after like five minutes, while Jesse denied it then Kat had to retract it. So what’s up?

Jesse James may be moving his daughter to Texas to escape the paparazzi, but he’s sure soaking up the attention of L.A.’s finest in the meantime.

The three-time divorcé and new paramour Kat Von D were out and about again today, this time lunching at celeb-friendly Urth Café in West Hollywood.

A night after Von D pleasantly confirmed what their recent PDAs have suggested, the heavily inked couple—James is once again playing to type, isn’t he?—dutifully ignored the paparazzi today and, holding hands, hopped into Von D’s Bentley and motored away.

I think Kat is loving the attention with the bad boy Jesse. Jesse seems hesitant to me, what do you think?
