Are Jesse James and ‘L.A. Ink’ star Kat Von D dating? On Wednesday the answer was yes -- at least until the tattoo artist deleted that message from her Twitter account.

The two had been spotted together in Las Vegas over the weekend, TMZ and others reported -- for real, not like when James was ‘photographed’ with ex-wife Sandra Bullock on Aug. 8.

Kat’s rep told People the two are ‘just friends.’

Wonder what Kat’s family would say?
