- Rumor has long had it that RIC OCASEK, 40, lead singer for
- the Cars, and supermodel PAULINA PORIZKOVA, 23, are a pair. But
- the couple has dodged the paparazzi too well for anyone to
- confirm it. Next week, however, the towering Ocasek and
- Porizkova, whose combined height measures over 12 ft., will
- appear in a variety of embraces in IN Fashion magazine. So, are
- they dating? "We're not stopping the secret," says a coy Ocasek.
- "We don't want to be some big rock star-model couple. We have
- enough problems with privacy as it is." But he adds, "She's
- always smoking my cigarettes." As for the pictured embraces,
- Ocasek says, "This wasn't to `come out.' " Paulina, he
- continues, could have been photographed with anyone. "But she
- wanted to do it with me." What about the story that he has asked
- her to marry him 150 times? "It was 148 times. We ask each other
- a lot." Perhaps when Ric settles his divorce from his wife
- Suzanne, someone just might say yes.
