Evan Rachel Wood: "Mickey Rourke is too old for me"
American actress and singer Evan Rachel Wood is not hooking up with her Wrestler co-star Mickey Rourke .
After reports surfaced the actors -- who have 35 years between them in age -- got cozy at a SAG Awards afterparty, Wood told Rolling Stone: "I'm upset because I feel disrespected by the press and by Mr. Rourke. Just because I'm single doesn't mean that you can take advantage of me. It's unfair that the performances might suffer because of all of these distractions."
She went on: "I'm not attracted to him, he's too old for me. Nothing ever happened and nothing ever will."
Mickey Rourke's rep also denied the reports.
"There is absolutely no truth in these rumors," his rep told Usmagazine.com Thursday. "Mickey and Evan became great friends during filming and remain friends, nothing more."
Evan Rachel Wood told Us at Sunday's SAG Awards that Rourke was a "tremendous actor" -- but she was "just enjoying" being single right now. (Wood split from rocker Marilyn Manson in October 2008 after about two years of dating.)
"I'm not going to rush into anything," she said.
The best part of being unattached?
"I can go on a road trip with my girlfriends anytime," she told Us. "I don't have to check in with people. I can stay out late. I can talk to guys, no one freaks out!"
She'd "maybe" like to find a guy to spend Valentine's Day with.
"It'd be nice to have a date. But dating, not have a boyfriend yet", she told Us.
