Selena, 18, insists she and the 16-year-old Canadian singer just happened to happen upon each other in Center City before their guest appearances at the Q102 Jingle Ball on Wednesday night.
"It was pancakes. Who doesn't like pancakes?" she tells MTV News. "We were both performing in the same place so we went and had pancakes together. That's all it is. All innocent."
