JC Chasez: I'm Not Dating Chace Crawford!

Former boybander JC Chasez has gone on the record to officially proclaim and he’s not gay and he’s not dating Gossip Girl hunk Chace Crawford.

“For the record, we’re both straight,” JC told Kiss FM 104.7. “We’re not dating.”

Added JC, “Let’s clear that up real quickly and the thing is, we don’t even get to hang out that much. We are friends, absolutely, the guy is a super nice guy and he’s a friend of mine but you know the only time people would usually see us together is in some type of photograph so they just assume that it’s like that. You know people hang out with their best friends every day… and I don’t even see this guy every day. He’s a friend of mine, like I said, it’s just ridiculous. The fact of the matter is, if I’m standing next to a girl and I don’t have a girlfriend all the sudden I’m dating her. If I’m dating a girl and I’m standing next to another girl I’m having an affair, so now since there hasn’t been any of that smoke out there in a minute now if I’m hanging out with a guy they’re going to make up a rumor, it’s just stupid now.”

Ya heard, America? These JC gay rumors are stupid!

JC is a judge on the MTV reality competition show America’s Best Dance Crew, which has its live finale this Thursday @ 10PM ET/PT. It’s the JabbaWockeeZ versus Status Quo!
