Unlikely couple Sydney Sweeney and Scooter Braun seen on date night at celeb-favorite LA hot spot

Sydney Sweeney and Scooter Braun were spotted on a date night in Los Angeles on Wednesday, fueling romance rumors about the unlikely pair. The 28-year-old Euphoria star and the 44-year-old former music manager were photographed dining together at Jon and Vinny’s in Brentwood, according to a photo shared with the gossip account Deuxmoi. In the image, Sweeney wore her signature blond hair down while Braun wore a plain white T shirt. Eyewitnesses described the scene as a sit down dinner at the celeb favorite restaurant. Page Six has reached out to reps for comment and did not immediately hear back.

Fans and industry insiders have been buzzing since an insider told Page Six earlier this month that Braun has been obsessed with Sweeney since they crossed paths at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s wedding in Italy. The insider said Braun has been pursuing the Euphoria actress and that the pair have been casually dating, with the relationship described as still new.

Romance chatter about Sweeney and Braun began after they were seen together at Bezos and Sánchez’s wedding, first in Venice with a group of friends. In August, a TikTok clip resurfaced showing the two roaming the streets of Venice alongside models Amélie Tremblay, Karlie Kloss, Orlando Bloom and Tom Brady, though there was no public display of affection.

There is indication they may have known each other before the Italy trip. A resurfaced TikTok video from Lana Del Rey’s Coachella set shows the two casually talking as they made their way through the crowd, with other friends nearby.

Sweeney has been single for several months after calling off her engagement to Jonathan Davino in March due to major issues. Braun has been divorced from Yael Cohen since July 2021 after seven years of marriage.

Neither Sweeney nor Braun have publicly commented on dating rumors. Page Six will continue to monitor the situation.
