Kendall Jenner clearly has a patriotic side.

The E! star proved just that when she was spotted wearing a stars and stripes bikini in Malibu, Calif., yesterday.

And the 17-year-old was definitely making the most of the Fourth of July holiday as she hit the sand and surf.

Joining Kendall for a day of fun in the sun was her younger sister, Kylie Jenner, and family friend Jaden Smith.

"Amazing fourth. Couldn't be more thankful for the people around me x," Kylie tweeted later in the day.

Of course, the 15-year-old also found herself commenting on the continuing speculation that she and the 14-year-old After Earth star are an item.

"Media always making it seem like I'm dating everyone I'm seen with," she wrote. "Makes no sense to me. Don't listen to everything u see, people."

Back in April, Jaden himself addressed the romance rumors while chatting with Britain's Wonderland magazine by clarifying that Kylie is simply "one of my best friends."

As for how the two got to be so close, Will Smith's son told the mag, "I was in L.A., we were all hanging out. Then I went to New York and she came too, and then she came here [to London] and surprised me, so that's pretty baller."

And Kylie proved to be a supportive friend as well when she attended the New York City premiere of After Earth in May, telling E! News that having a pal who knows what the spotlight is like makes their friendship that much better.

"It's refreshing," she told us at the time. "Some people don't understand and some people do. And it's just great to have someone grow up in the same position as you and you can relate in that kind of way, so it's fun."
