Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber made sure to stay well away from one another last night at the “Never Say Never” film premiere in Los Angeles. After being photographed out together holding hands earlier this week, the rumored couple played it cool last night.

18-year-old Gomez hit the purple carpet in a purple cocktail dress that matched Bieber’s purple tuxedo jacket, but the pair kept their distance and didn’t speak to each other or make any eye contact. (Way to make things obvious kiddies!)

When pressed about whether or not he and Gomez were an item, Bieber, 16, said of her support: “It’s great” before adding, “She’s a great person. And as long as you keep yourself surrounded by good people, you’ll go far.”
