Miley Cyrus and Nick Jonas "just really good buds"

Teen sensation Miley Cyrus insists her relationship with Nick Jonas is strictly platonic.

When asked in Wednesday's edition of USA Today if she's dating anyone – perhaps a certain Jonas Brothers heartthrob – the 15-year-old Hannah Montana star insisted, "We're just really good buds."

However, when it comes to her love life, the actress' father Billy Ray Cyrus, has been slightly more forthcoming. When reports first surfaced on the potential couple in July, he explained: "What kids do these days is that they have group dates. She really hasn't had a date date."

The hugely popular starlet – who just legally changed her name to Miley Ray (from Destiny Hope) – also opened up about how fame affects her social life.

When one reader asked, "Do you ever worry that your friends like you only because you're famous? Kind of like the reason Miley Stewart hides that she's really Hannah Montana?" Cyrus admitted, "It's definitely easier to make friends now."

But, she said, it helps to know who's really got your back. "I've had all my same friends from the beginning, so I know who was there before and who was there after," she added. "You can tell who real people are."
