Jason Derulo!

We just thought we should start this post out the same way as Mr. Derulo starts all his songs.

BURN!

Despite reports that hip-hop artist, the aforementioned Derulo, is dating American Idol winner Jordan Sparks, the 22-year-old insists that they are “just friends”, Tweeting,

Jordan Sparks is an absolute sweetheart. She’s a very nice girl. We’ve been friends for a while now. We’re just friends.

But a source close to the Derulo says the two have had eyes for each other since Sparks lost over 30lbs and started turning some serious heads in Hollywood.

She lost over 30 pounds and looks amazing – and he told her. It started there and they have been really reconnecting, now as lovers and not just friends.

Ew.  Don’t say “lovers”.

Will we see a Derulo/Sparks mashup sometime soon?  Stop that.  I meant on the radio.  Get your heads out of the gutter!

Singer/songwriter Jason Derulo is American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi’s protégé and he had a chance to take over the Idol stage a couple of weeks ago (watch Jason Derulo “In My Head” Idol video here). Jason’s new single is “Ridin’ Solo”. Tell us what you think about Jason and if you want to hear more about him on GossipTeen.
