Singers Brandy Norwood and Tyrese Gibson were seen having lunch on Sunday in California and of course the blogs have been running stories that the two are dating. Here’s Tyrese’s statement on the rumor:

[I've] been friends with Brandy since we were 14 years old.. Starting singing at the same park and she’s one of the most talented friends I have from day one.. I would NEVER date her it would be like dating my sister. It was a lunch a simple damn lunch. I love her but the rumors of us dating are REALLY OLD…
