Brandi Glanville Spotted With Gerard Butler!

Talk about an upgrade! "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Brandi Glanville is moving up the totem pole from former husband Eddie Cibrian with an A-list movie star.

Sources say that she engaged in a very public, steamy make-out session on the beach in Malibu this past Saturday with hottie Gerard Butler.

"They were at a private beach party -- drinks were flowing, and one thing led to another," an eyewitness told Life & Style Magazine. "Next thing you know, they're dancing together to some music, hands started getting frisky and it was a full-on make-out! Everyone saw it. One girl tried to snap a photo of it on her phone, but Gerard politely asked for privacy."

Gerard's past hook-ups include Jennifer Aniston, Jessica Biel, and Naomi Campell.

Brandi Glanville: 'Very Happy' To Join RHOBH

Brandi Glanville, the ex-wife of newlywed Eddie Cibrian, is getting her own time in the spotlight – as the newest castmate on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, a source confirms.

"She really wanted to be on the show, so she's very happy," the source tells PEOPLE

Glanville, 38, had been in negotiations to join the latest installment of Bravo's hit Real Housewives franchise since earlier this year. The network was also previously in talks with singer Robbie Williams' wife, Ayda Field, a source says.

Although no official announcement has been made by Bravo, Glanville has been hinting about her new gig for weeks, coyly Tweeting on April 9: "Moving to the hills of Beverly on April 22."

Glanville joins the rest of the feisty Housewives cast – Kim and Kyle Richards; Adrienne Maloof; Lisa VanderPump; Taylor Armstrong; and Camille Grammer – who are all set to return for a second season.

So, what should fans expect in season 2? A source tells PEOPLE that Kim Richards is a more assertive presence, while her sister, Kyle, has taken a more laid-back approach this year. In addition, the entire cast has been more accepting of Grammer, who sparred endlessly with Kyle and was a source of friction in season 1.

Meanwhile, Glanville isn't exactly a stranger to drama: Starting in 2009 she was engaged in public, off-screen, feud with her ex, Cibrian, with whom she split after eight years of marriage.

She has since made peace with her ex – with whom she has two sons. Cibrian married country star LeAnn Rimes last month.

Eddie Cibrian to Ex: Keep Kids Off 'Housewives'

TMZ broke the story ... Brandi will star on the next season of the show -- and according to sources, Eddie wants to make sure Brandi doesn't drag their kids along for the ride ... threatening legal action if their two children make any kind of cameo appearance.

According to sources, Brandi's pissed -- telling friends Eddie is imposing a HUGE double standard ... because he and the kids JUST appeared in a massive spread in People magazine ... with LeAnn Rimes.

TMZ spoke to Eddie's rep ... who confirms Eddie doesn't want their children involved in "Real Housewives" in any way whatsoever.

Brandi Glanville Not Joining RHOBH Cast

Although we were getting excited about Eddie Cibrian’s ex-wife, Brandi Glanville, potentially starring on the next season of Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, a friend set Hollywood Life straight about the casting reports.

“Brandi is actually not in talks for Real Housewives,” the insider told Hollywood Life, disputing TMZ’s report last week.

Bummer! If Camille Grammer doesn’t return, we want someone hot and dramatic to fill her shoes, and after all the drama between Brandi, Eddie and his new fiancee, LeAnn Rimes, we think Brandi would be perfect!

More Housewives of Beverly Hills Joining Cast?
