Even after being caught kissing Selena Gomez in a Caribbean trip recently, Justin Bieber says she is just one of my best friends.

Bieber, 16, made the comments during a phone interview with Ryan Seacrest on KIIS-FM radio program in Los Angeles. Seacreast asked Bieber if he wanted to set the record straight on what happened.

What do I saw to fans of yours who saw video of you and Selena Gomez last week?

Oh, Just tell them that, uh, that she's like one of my best friends, he said.

What movie did you see?

We saw 'No Strings Attached'

Seacrest didn't press further.

Bieber told PEOPLE recently that he and Gomez, 18, just like to hang out.
