trouble with status index-> profile_show

This line <%= link_to image_tag(status.user.gravatar_url), profile_path(status.user) %>

leads me to http://localhost:3000/1 instead of http://localhost:3000/user_name.

Any ideas on how to fix this? Or a different way to get to http://localhost:3000/user_name

thanks
