Rumors have been swirling that Selena Gomez and beefed up Twilight star Taylor Lautner are dating, but as expected, Sel says not to believe the romance hype!

The 16-year-old Disney starlet told Extra at yesterday’s A Time for Heroes Celebrity Carnival, “He’s one of my good friends. I’m single. Definitely single.”

Additionally, Sel told Popstar! mag that fans should “focus on my work, not my love life.”
