Tim Tebow: I'm not dating Katy Perry

(USA TODAY) - It seems Broncos QB Tim Tebow and singer Katy Perry are not a match made in heaven. At least not yet.

While participating in a Boys & Girls Club event in Los Angeles on Monday, Tebow was asked if there was any news to report regarding himself and the starlet.

(Here's a bone for you conspiracy theorists: Perry was also in L.A. this weekend while performing at the Grammys on Sunday night.)

Per the AP:

"No, me and Katy Perry don't have a thing, but she's a very good artist," he said, smiling when asked by one of the kids in the group.

"I'm single."

Perry attended and presented the offensive rookie of the year award at the inaugural NFL Honors on the eve of Super Bowl XLVI.

"Hi, Tim. My parents say, 'Hi,' " Perry said on stage that night while playfully waving to Tebow, who sat in the front row laughing.

OK! magazine reported last month that Perry, the daughter of evangelical ministers, had taken a liking to Tebow following her split with actor Russell Brand.

Per the magazine, Perry "mentioned on more than one occasion how much she likes Tim" and thinks "he's handsome, charming, intelligent and above all, a good Christian."

Of course if Perry is actually interested in dating Tebow, she may have to take a number.
