By Christine Thomasos, Christian Post Reporter Tuesday, July 23, 2013

Chris Brown, the 24-year-old singer-songwriter, is making it clear that he is not in a romantic relationship with 25-year-old model Karrueche Tran despite weeks of public speculation.

Brown and his ex-girlfriend Tran have been spotted traveling together to multiple events after the singer's public split with on-and-off again singer Rihanna earlier this year. However, Brown recently let it be known that he and Tran are just friends.

"[Fans have] seen me on and off again with different girls, you know who they are, but right now, as a 24-year-old man, I just choose to be single," Brown told HollywoodLife.com recently.

Tran fueled speculation about a reconciliation between she and Brown when they arrived at the BET Awards together last month. Last year, Brown released a statement about breaking things off with Tran to pursue a relationship with Rihanna and followed up with the release of "The Real Chris Brown" video admitting his love for two women.

However, the singer confirmed that he was not with Rihanna on the Power 106 Los Angeles radio station.

"Uh, no. That's the short answer," Brown replied when asked by a radio host if he and Rihanna were still together last March.

Still, Brown insists that he remains friends with both of his ex-girlfriends.

"I'm still good friends with them," Brown told HollywoodLife.com recently. "[Now] it's just me being focused with my music and doing this stuff. Right now, I'm in my prime."

Even after Brown let the world know that he previously planned to break things off to pursue Rihanna, Tran let it be known that she would always be his friend.

"At the end of the day, he will always be a friend," Tran previously told Vibe magazine. "We'll always care about each other."
