Hailey Baldwin has denied she is dating Justin Bieber.

The 18-year-old model was rumoured to have been growing close to the 'Baby' hitmaker but she has admitted that they're just "good friends".

She told E! News: "I've known him since I was so young - since I was like 13 - and we've just been good friends over the years.

"We have just stayed close and there's nothing more to it than that."

Meanwhile, a source recently revealed that the 20-year-old singer has found a new "muse" in Hailey.

The insider shared: "She's different from the other girls Justin has been with. She's really fun, feisty, and couldn't care less about Justin's fame and fortune."

Hailey - who only celebrated her birthday a few weeks ago - was reportedly "treated like a princess" by Justin on her special day, despite him only splitting from on/off girlfriend, Selena Gomez, just recently.

The source continued: "Hailey's birthday was on November 22 so when she got to New York, Justin made sure to spoil her and treat her like a princess. He totally took care of her and took her shopping. He's definitely on the rebound from Selena."

Despite his advances, Hailey - the niece of actor Alec Baldwin - is believed to be "cautious" about her supposed romance with the star.

An insider explained: "Justin usually gets what he wants and he's trying to seal the deal with Hailey. But she's being a bit cautious.

"Hailey doesn't want to just be another girl on Justin's list. Right now, she's treating this relationship as a friendship."
