Jennifer Lopez is apparently still single despite rumors she's back with ex-boyfriend Casper Smart.

After multiple reports surfaced the American Idol judge is dating her backup dancer-turned choreographer again, Lopez is clearing the air.

"I'm single right now," Lopez told Us Weekly. "I think being on my own has been really great for me."

Lopez, 45, and Smart, 27, dated for almost three years before calling it quits in June 2014, when rumors swirled Smart had cheated on the singer. However, sources close to both individuals came forward insisting the allegations were totally false, and Lopez and Smart seemingly remained friendly ever since.

"There was a time where I was just like 'Ehhh, I'm just not going to deal with anybody, I just want to be on my own.' Now I'm getting back into the mix. For right now, I just have no announcements to make," said Lopez, who serves on Idol's fourteenth-season judging panel with Keith Urban and Harry Connick Jr.

Insiders recently told Entertainment Tonight the couple spent New Year's Eve together in Las Vegas and were trying to rekindle their romance.

Lopez and Smart appeared to begin dating back in November 2011, which was only four months after the "Booty" singer had split from Marc Anthony, her third ex-husband with whom she shares six-year-old twins Max and Emme.

Prior to Anthony, Lopez had wed and divorced Ojani Noa and Cris Judd. She also had high-profile relationships with rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs and actor Ben Affleck, whom she had been engaged to.
