The 'Good For You' hitmaker - who was recently linked to Samuel Krost, a friend of her close pal Gigi Hadid's - has put rumours to rest by insisting she isn't seriously dating anyone at the moment.

She told E! News: "I'm dating a little bit, but no I'm definitely single."

Her comments come only days after the 23-year-old star's former boyfriend Justin Bieber admitted there was a chance the pair could rekindle their romance in the future.

He said: "Maybe? We have a lot of history together and I am sure it could possibly happen. I think we are both just on our own journeys and figuring ourselves out and I think maybe once we figure ourselves out we can come back and make an awesome duo or she finds someone awesome and I'll find someone awesome. I just want her to be happy."

And the 21-year-old singer insists there's always going to be "respect" between the pair.

He added: "She is someone I love dearly. I'm never going to stop loving her. I'm never going to stop checking in on her. I don't think if you end a relationship, you should end that, unless it was super toxic and you guys were hurting each other physically or mentally. We always respected each other and we still respect each other."
