Nicole Scherzinger and Ed Sheeran are absolutely not dating according to a rep for Scherzinger.

Everyone has been waiting and watching to see who Nicole Scherzinger will date next since her final split from on-again-off-again boyfriend Lewis Hamilton in February.

The rumors began running rampant after British tabloid, The Sun, claimed that Nicole Scherzinger was dating Ed Sheeran.

A supposed friend of Sheeran’s said, “As far as he’s concerned they were in the early stages of dating and he’s been open about it with close friends and colleagues. It may not develop beyond those dates but they’re definitely tight.”

An alleged friend of Nicole Scherzinger’s added, “They’re extremely close. Nicole says he is the male version of her.”

Hmmm, yeah, I don’t see it either.

After a night of drinking at The Station Hotel, her friend said, “She loved it because, as she put it, it was ‘so real’. She kept saying that.”

Perhaps Nicole Scherzinger meant real friendly by “so real”?

Nicole Scherzinger and Ed Sheeran have been hanging out together and have even been special guests at each other’s shows and have dedicated songs to one another.

So, I could see where speculation might go crazy.

But, I guess it’s just not meant to be. Yet.

So, barring another on-again relay with Lewis Hamilton, what is your best guess as to who Nicole Scherzinger might really date next?
