NEW YORK, Oct. 22 (UPI) -- Jenny Lewis and Bill Murray sparked dating rumors after being spotted together Monday.

The 39-year-old singer joined the 65-year-old actor at the after-party for his new movie, Rock the Kasbah. Sources called the musician Murray's "special friend" to Page Six, which referred to Lewis as the actor's "yo unger love interest" in the report.

An anonymous insider subsequently told Nylon magazine the pair are "just friends and musical collaborators." Lewis is reportedly still dating her longtime boyfriend and Jenny and Johnny bandmate, Johnathan Rice.

"I don't think I'm lonely," Murray said of single life to Howard Stern last year. "There's a lot that I'm not doing that I need to do. Just some things like working on yourself or self-development ... becoming more connected to myself."
