According to the eyewitness, Jared was making moves and “majorly flirting” with the 12 Years a Slave actress.

The party observer notes the Dallas Buyers Club actor “was a whirlwind,” adding, “He came in and spoke to [studio executive] Harvey [Weinstein] for a second, than raced right for Lupita.”

“He hugged her and started whispering to her quietly,” adds the source, noting she was receptive to his attention and followed his lead as he “dragged her right to the dance floor.”

While they were dancing, the duo was “whispering and laughing” closely together, the source tells the magazine. “At one point they were sticking their tongues out at each other and staring into each other’s eyes. It was very flirty.”

The eyewitness says Jared then told Lupita he had to go but to text him later.

Earlier in the evening, the pair had presented an award together at the SAG Awards.

This isn’t the first time dating rumors have swirled around the two Oscar winners. While accepting a 2014 Independent Spirit Award, Leto said, “I want to thank all the women I’ve been with and all the women who think they’ve been with me,” he said. “And also my future ex-wife, I’m talking to you, Lupita Nyong’o!”

The flirting continued when Nyong’o presented Leto with an MTV Award for Best On-Screen Transformation and he gushed, “That’s an award in itself to get that from her.”

Meanwhile, another source tells Us Weekly, Nyong’o has split from rapper K’naan, whom she’d reportedly dated last year. Meanwhile, Leto has previously been linked to pop star Miley Cyrus.

Nyong’o will next be seen on the big screen in Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens.  It opens in December.
