We're shocked he said anything!

Ryan Phillippe was rumored to be "flirting" with Katy Perry at Elton John's birthday bash last month, which kicked the rumor mill into overdrive that the actor and the singer were quietly embarking on a new romance. Not true, says the Cruel Intentions star!

"I AM NOT DATING KATY PERRY. BARELY KNOW HER. PLEASE STOP FLYING HELICOPTERS OVER MY HOUSE. SHE IS NOT HERE. thx," he tweeted on Sunday.

Sounds like he can't take the attention!

People thought the pairing was perfect, as the songstress had just split with Orlando Bloom and the father-of-two was single after his breakup with fiancé Paulina Slaghter.

What a bummer! We thought they would make a cute couple.
