After being linked to Kim Kardashian last week, rumors are now circulating that New York Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez is dating Sports Illustrated cover girl Kate Upton. So what's the scoop? Well, luckily enough Upton was a guest star on The Ellen Show yesterday and host Ellen DeGeneres used her prized interrogation tactics to uncover the mystery.
DeGeneres got straight to the point by sneakily stating, "Your boyfriend, New York Jets quarter back Mark Sanchez. How does he feel about this?" Upton side-stepped the remark, saying, "I did not have a Valentine's date this year." But DeGeneres wasn't ready to give up so easily. She then said, "Okay, so he was busy. So how does your boyfriend Mark Sanchez feel about all this? He must be proud, right?" But Upton remained vague on the matter and coyly replied, "Well, even if I had a boyfriend. I wouldn't ask how he felt about it."
Upton then asked DeGeneres if she wanted Sanchez to be her boyfriend, and she replied matter of factly, "Yeah...He's cute. Don't you think he's cute?" And guess what? Upton agrees! She admitted, "Yeah, he is cute," and explained that she met him years ago through her sister, who works for the Jets.
And what did DeGeneres make of all this? In the end she came to the conclusion: "She's dating Mark Sanchez." Well there you have it. If Ellen says it, it has to be true. Check out their little back-and-forth banter below and see for yourself.
