Kylie Jenner wants to make sure everyone is clear on something.

The 16-year-old E! star took to Twitter to slam claims that she dates guys based on their fame. "The fact that some people actually believe I would waste my time dating someone as a publicity stunt," Jenner tweeted early this morning.

Kylie's response comes after HollywoodLife released a report that mom Kris Jenner had a detailed screening process for her youngest girls' boyfriends, claiming that the matriarch made sure her daughters' dates had celebrity status before they were allowed to go out.

Regardless, the young celeb is a single lady.

"I don't have a boyfriend, but I do really want that boyfriend prom experience," Jenner shared in the annual prom issue of Seventeen. "I would want to go with someone who's not afraid, or doesn't think that he's too cool, to show up at my house with a rose corsage. It would be nice for the guy to come over and be respectful and nice while my mom takes prom pics."

Kylie and Jaden Smith have been in the center of relationship rumors for quite some time now, but the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star says they're just "best friends," and he might actually be the one she has that prom date experience with.

"But if I couldn't find a boyfriend, I would want to go with one of my best guy friends, like Jaden [Smith]," she said. "I know I'd have fun with him—he makes me laugh and he is a great dancer."

Sounds like the perfect candidate!
