New couple alert? Kat Dennings and Andrew W.K. get cozy on Instagram

But does she party hard?

Irrepressible Aughties rocker Andrew W.K. and “2 Broke Girls” star Kat Dennings may be 2021’s newest — and if we’re being honest, most out-of-left-field — couple, if pics on the pair’s respective Instagrams are any indication.

After posting pictures of W.K. over the weekend that could double as headshots for his male modeling portfolio, Dennings then put up a shot of the 41-year-old rocker kissing her forehead, which does seem to make the previous post’s subtext, well, just regular text.

W.K., for his part, put a full-on lip-lock snap of the pair on his own Instagram Stories, which Dennings, 34, subsequently added to her own.

W.K.’s musical stylings are quite the departure from the last musician Dennings dated, Josh Groban. The two were introduced by Dennings’ “2 Broke Girls” co-star Beth Behrs in 2014, but mutually called it quits two years later.

W.K. married Cherie Lily in 2008. It’s not known when the pair separated. Lily was congratulating W.K. on the release of new music as recently as February on Twitter, though the last time he appeared on her Instagram was in May 2019, when Lily wished him a happy birthday with a pic of the pair performing together. Her last appearance on W.K.’s Instagram was in December 2018.

Dennings was recently seen in the Disney+ Marvel property “WandaVision” as her MCU character Darcy Lewis — who first appeared in the “Thor” films — though she said in February that she “has not gotten a call” about a role in the next installment in the Thor franchise, “Love and Thunder,” currently filming in Australia.

W.K. released a new song, “Babylon,” in February. His most recent full-length, “You’re Not Alone,” came out in 2018.
