In June 2007, Pop Dirt interviewed Jordin over AIM (we feel like dinosaurs writing this) and asked her to address the rumors about her and AI runner-up Blake Lewis. She responded, “No, Blake is one of my best friends, but we don’t see each other like that.” She added, “Yes, we hold hands, but we DON’T see each other that way. Yes, he’s cute, duh, [but] he’s also 8-9 years older than me. He’s like an older brother.”
