Tinashe Denies Kevin Durant Dating Rumors, Says They've 'Never Even Met’

Following weeks of drama concerning her ex-boyfriend, Ben Simmons, and his new girlfriend, Kendall Jenner, Tinashe is still being asked about her dating life. This time she had to deny that she even knew Kevin Durant after she was spotted leaving the same club as him.

If you’ve been paying even minimal attention to celebrity news lately, then you likely know every possible detail about Tinashe's dating life. Earlier this year, the singer was dating rookie of the year Ben Simmons until she was likely dumped for Kendall Jenner. Since then, she has attended the same parties as the new couple, which led to Simmons suspecting her of stalking him. She also supposedly made up a story that he was still texting her. For the most part, she is laughing it off, but the rumors just keep on coming. 

Per the Blast, Tinashe was again the subject of speculation after she was spotted leaving the same club that Golden State Warriors’ Kevin Durant also happened to be at after the ESPYs. After all, there was Simmons and a potential fling with Blake Griffin, so it would appear Tinashe has a thing for basketball players. However, she was asked directly about her relationship with Durant on Thursday night, and her response was plain and simple: “I’ve never even met Kevin Durant.”

Kendall Jenner, for her part, is allegedly annoyed by all the noise around her new boyfriend and his ex. Meanwhile, Tinashe is out here dancing to Drake's “In My Feelings” and releasing new music

Rumors aside, things have been going well for Durant, who earned his second title in as many years plus NBA Finals MVP honors. Still, there's a case to be made for the Warriors forward to join the Knicks next season. He could simultaneously erase the bad taste left in fan's mouths following his move to Golden State and become a New York legend, assuming all the other pieces fall into place.
