That kiss between Charlie Puth and Meghan Trainor was just part of their "Marvin Gaye" performance, just like that.

While the rumor mills claimed that something romantic might be going on between the two artists, Teen Vogue reported that the lip-locking scene at the end of their performance during the American Music Awards "was just a decoy."

The site shared that with the incident, "the singers have to do overtime to remind people that, 'hey, friends can kiss, too!'"

Teen Vogue pointed out as well that the singer is currently seeing someone else. And they have theorized that the "mystery girl" is Hailee Steinfield, the 18-year-old "Pitch Perfect 2" star, as hinted by the social media.

"There are few hints on his Instagram - we already looked - but let's be real here: Twitter faves tell no lies," the report stated, something that may put a stop to speculations about the possible romantic involvement between Charlie Puth and Meghan Trainor after that kiss at AMAs.

As narrated by the site, the actress clicked the favorite button of the tweet that mentioned her name "which is not all that common, sure, but she was also not tagged in either that or the initial tweet."

Another clue which the Teen Vogue cited was when she "faved this fan reply to Charlie's adoring tweet of her name alone."

On the other hand, People reported that prior to hitting the stage, the 23-year-old singer gave out a warning about "a lot of making out" that would happen while doing his hit duet with the 21-year-old fellow singer.

The site revealed that while the singers were singing "Marvin Gaye" on stage, they locked lips after the final notes of the chorus, adding that "PDA-fest lasted after the performance ended and cameras stopped rolling."

What do you think of the clues noted by Teen Vogue? Could that kiss at AMAs between Charlie Puth and Meghan Trainor was just a friendly one
