After the Katy Perry and Ryan Philippe dating rumors started to swirl, the actor decided to shut the reports down via social media and now Perry herself has responded to him.

As we reported, Phillippe took to Twitter recently to make it clear that he and the pop star are not dating by tweeting, "I AM NOT DATING KATY PERRY. BARELY KNOW HER. PLEASE STOP FLYING HELICOPTERS OVER MY HOUSE. SHE IS NOT HERE." Yes, he wrote it in all caps on purpose.

The "Chained To The Rhythm" singer then decided to break her silence since her name was being thrown around so she responded to a Tweet in which one of Phillippe's followers wrote "THATS WHAT SOME1 WHO HAS KATY PERRY IN HIS BASEMENT WOULD SAY." Yes, that was written in all caps too, but we're not sure why.

Phillippe responded with "shhh." Then out of nowhere Perry jumped in the conversation tweeting, "Can u let me out of this basement pls?"

From there the two stars, who say they barely know each other, had a little back and forth.

So who knows? Maybe they will want to get to know one another more in future after the unique situation of being brought together by Twitter and rumors.
