Selena Gomez has laughed off a past comment she made describing Justin Bieber as a "little brother".
The Wizards of Waverly Place actress was quizzed about rumours suggesting she is romancing Bieber during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Tuesday.
DeGeneres opened the questioning by playing a clip of Gomez's past appearance on the show, during which she brushed off speculation of a romance, comparing the 'Baby' singer to a family member. "What do you have to say now?" she asked Gomez.
"Don't take me to jail!" responded the actress. "I don't know! I don't know!"
As the 18-year-old dissolved into giggles, the host went on to suggest that Gomez and Bieber had been trying to hide their romance until going public at the Vanity Fair Oscars party in February, joking that Gomez had made a "fool" of her.
"I really didn't!" said Gomez. "I promise you I didn't! He's just sweet!... I didn't lie to you, though. I will say that!"
The star didn't directly comment on her current relationship status with Bieber, who is on tour in the UK, but did agree with DeGeneres when the host suggested that a little brother isn't someone you would want to date.
"Well, no," she said. "That would be weird and wrong."
Gomez is currently promoting her new single 'Who Says?' and has said that she will launch her first headline tour this summer.
