ROLO/AKM-GSISo, were they or weren't they?
News of Justin Bieber and Kourtney Kardashian began to make the rounds after the two were spotted out together on several occasions that sparked romance speculation, and now, the 21-year-old singer is speaking out about the highly talked-about rumors.
In a Dec. 17 interview on radio program The Bert Show, airing on Wednesday, Biebs addressed the situation by jokingly responding to the headline with, "I'm being used, man. What can I say?"
He wouldn't discuss the matter any further, and instead when asked if anything was there, just said, "Nah, we'll leave it at that."
He did, however, add that he has nothing but love for the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star, who went through a very public breakup with longtime boyfriend Scott Disick over the summer.
"No, no, but for real, she's great," Bieber said. "I've known [the family] for years."
The singer also touched on his famous ex Selena Gomez, who recently released the super-sexy music video for her latest single "Hands to Myself" featuring hunky male model Christopher Mason.
"What is she trying to do to my heart right now? I'm just kidding. She loves me. I love her, too, always. Who's this guy? He's a joke! This guy's a chump," he began to say, before giving in and saying, "Nah, I guess he's pretty handsome actually. I can't even lie."
On a more serious note, Bieber explained, "I just want her to be happy. I love [Selena]. We're friends still. We needed time to grow for ourselves and we were like, 'Maybe we'll come back together in the future,' and then it ended up being so long and we just grew apart and we're not the same people anymore."
And now, it seems like Justin has a new leading lady in his life.
The celeb suggested that he and longtime friend Hailey Baldwin are taking things to another level by showing some serious PDA on Instagram with a smooch pic while on vacation.
"Hailey and Justin have a very tight relationship. They both are very close with each other's families and care very deeply about each other," a source told E! News recently. "Hailey's family has been there and supported Justin through his transition so Justin has a strong respect for them."
"He loves Hailey as a friend and considers her one of his best friends," the source added. "They both also have a strong attraction towards each other and this trip they have been having fun with their families, but also had some alone time. Hailey and Justin like to party and let loose and this romantic connection has always been there."
