After Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez were spotted arm-in-arm together outside of an IHOP restaurant in Philadelphia last week, the Pop singers were immediately thought to be in the beginning stages of a budding, young romance. But Selena Gomez says that the Biebs is just a good friend of hers, and their rumored “date” was just an innocent outing: two friends having pancakes at the International House of Pancakes!

Over weekend at the Z100 Jingle Ball 2010, where the two of them performed (separately, of course), Selena Gomez told MTV News:

“It was pancakes. Who doesn’t like pancakes? We were both performing in the same place so we went and had pancakes together. That’s all it is. All innocent.” (Source)

So there you have it folks. Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez are JUST friends!
