EDM duo the Chainsmokers are in the news again for reasons entirely unrelated to music. Earlier this month, they appeared on the podcast Call Her Daddy to talk about having threesomes with their fans. And now it seems that one Chainsmoker, Andrew “Drew” Taggart, may be dating actor, singer, and Jack in the Box ambassador Selena Gomez.

According to Us Weekly, Drew and Selena are in a “very casual and low-key relationship,” which involves going “bowling and to the movies” together and VIP partying. Per Us, “They aren’t trying to hide their romance by sneaking around at members-only clubs.” The magazine’s source also claims “Selena can hardly keep her hands off him.”

At the very least, these two do seem into bowling. “Page Six” published photos reportedly taken earlier this month of Gomez and Taggart hanging out at a New York bowling alley called the Gutter (?), where they were apparently seen “making out.” People claimed they were actually just out with “a group,” which does not explain the alleged making out. Still, Gomez also seems to be denying that she’s in any kind of relationship. In a cryptic Instagram Story she posted and then deleted last week, a black-and-white landscape photo was overlaid with the hashtag “#iamsingle” and the text “I like being alone too much.” Huh!

Gomez’s mixed messaging continued over the weekend, when she and Taggart were photographed holding hands while out and about in New York City. According to Us, they had dinner at Torrisi Bar & Restaurant before heading uptown to Drake’s concert at the Apollo.

Beyond the unnamed fans he has allegedly had threesomes with, Taggart was last known to be having a “casual summer fling” with Steve Jobs’s daughter, Eve Jobs. While Us described their breakup as “totally amicable,” Jobs has notably deleted Instagram amid reports of her ex’s new romance. Which makes sense, considering they appear to have been together as recently as New Year’s Eve:

Something about this guy’s general vibe tells me he has no problem rebounding quickly?
