Though Ariana Grande finds Harry Styles "very, very sweet," she insisted that there is "no romantic attachment" between her and the One Direction member.
Styles wrote the song "Just a Little Bit of Your Heart," which was included in Grande's second studio album "My Everything." And the 21-year-old "Bang Bang" hitmaker found the lyrics so beautiful that she was initially worried about doing it injustice.
"I was more intimidated, because he recorded a demo for me so I could learn the song. I was like, 'I don't know if I wanna touch this song! It is so beautiful, the way he sang it, I don't know if I want to make it my own,'" she told British magazine Heat, according to Cover Media.
The "Sam & Cat" actress added that the track made a big impact on her the first time she heard it, and while Styles' version was really great, she, too, is very proud of her own version.
"I was very touched. It's about loving somebody so much that you're willing to share them with somebody else and, like, being OK with that," she said.
She is also hopeful that the track will make people realize that there is more to the 20-year-old British boyband star.
"I had always known him as a vocalist and that's always impressive, but his writing to me is just as good," Grande told the mag.
Grande also recalled the moment she first learned that Styles would write a song for her.
"I was very excited. I mean, he was just visiting the studio and Johan [one of my producers] was like, 'Hey, shall we write a song for Ariana?' And Harry was like, 'Yeah sure!' So it all happened quite randomly,'" she told We Love Pop magazine, according to Bang Showbiz.
When quizzed if she thinks of Styles when she performs the song, Ariana said: ''No! I'm sorry to disappoint you ... But there is no romantic attachment between me and Harry Styles."
''[But] he is definitely very, very sweet,'' she added.
Since last month, it has been rumored that Grande was dating rapper Big Sean. There were also speculations in the past, saying that she had dated The Wanted's Nathan Sykes, but during a recent interview with Nova FM, she said, "He's just a nice friend," according to Daily Mail.
