Are they or aren't they? Apparently they aren't. Dating, that is.

Reports of a romance between Nick Jonas and Kendall Jenner surfaced earlier this summer after the stars were spotted palling around with lovebirds Joe Jonas and Gigi Hadid. But the "Jealous" singer set the record straight, telling E! News he and Jenner are just friends.

"We're not dating," he said. "Kendall is great and naturally with her being good friends with Gigi and with Joe and Gigi dating, there are times we'll be in the same place and we all hang out."

On Friday, Jonas opened up about dating and his ex Olivia Culpo while on Ryan Seacrest's On Air radio show.

Ladies in case you're wondering, he's single.

"I was with [Culpo] for two years. We had a beautiful relationship together and it was great. It was time for that to end, which is sad," he said. "But I'm single. Contrary to what people I think, think. It's just mind-blowing to me how these things start."

Jonas has been doing press around his single "Levels," which he'll perform live at the upcoming MTV Music Awards.

"I just wanted to give people an idea of who I am today as an artist and who my influences were coming into it -- people like Stevie Wonder and Prince," Jonas told CBS News about his latest album.
