Brandy Norwood and singer-actor Tyrese Gibson chum around at Westfield mall in Century City, Calif, on Sunday (November 16). “They seemed very close,” an eyewitness tells Life & Style. “You could tell they were very much used to each other’s company. It looked like much more than a friendly relationship.” But Brandy and Tyrese (both 29) are taking things slow. “She’s obviously looking for love,” says an insider. “But are they 100 percent dating? Not yet. Are they two very successful, gorgeous people who are hanging out a lot? Yes. You do the math.” Brandy’s new album, Human, drops on Tuesday, Dec. 9.
