Does Tony Romo have "a type" or what?

The Dallas Cowboys quarterback has taken up with a new lovely lady -- and she just happens to be a cute, busty blonde, like his most recent ex Jessica Simpson.

UsMagazine.com is reporting that Tony has been hittin' the Dallas scene with beauty queen Candice Crawford -- sister of Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford.

"She's not happy that it's out [in the media], but they weren't trying to hide," an insider said. "They've gone out to dinner in Dallas a bunch."

Tony gave Jess the old heave-ho in July -- the night before her 29th birthday -- and was rumored to have had a bunch of blonde flings while he and Jessica were an item.

Hmmmm. Dating carbon copies of your ex -- have you done it?
