Former One Directioner Zayn Malik and British singer Rita Ora have been spotted having dinner at a restaurant in West Hollywood.

Zayn Malik, 22, and Rita Ora, 24, were spotted together having dinner in a Japanese eatery in LA, according to Daily Mail.

A source told the outlet that the two are not dating and that they were there because they are from the same management team.

"They were both at a dinner organized by a member of their management team. There was a group of artists and staff from Turn First at the get-together," the source told Daily Mail. "There is nothing going on between Rita and Zayn."

A few weeks ago, Ora admitted that Malik is "gorgeous."

"Zayn, he's gorgeous, but, I just...That can't happen," Ora told Capital FM. "We're on the same management team, too close to home that, but no, he's great."

According to a report by Hollywood Take, the two could possibly date seeing as how they are both single. Malik just recently broke it off with fiancee Perrie Edwards in August. The website stated that Malik has been linked to Kendall Jenner, Neelam Gill and Selena Gomez.

It was reported that Edwards was distraught over her breakup with Malik. According to the International Business Times, Edwards who is part of the band "Little Mix" reportedly sobbed after singing a line from their breakup song "The End:"

"No one can love you, the way I used to do./ I can't keep breaking, up with you/You messed with my heart, babe/Now it's black and blue/But love isn't fair, and I swear/That this time/This is the end."

According to the outlet, Edwards' bandmates comforted her when they saw the 22-year-old singer crying.

"It's been a long day and we've had no sleep, so I think this is why this has happened. We're just very emotional," explained Little Mix band member Jesy Nelson.

The singer was also comforted by their fans in the crowd as they shouted, "We love you Perrie."

As for Ora, she broke up with Tommy Hillfiger's son, Ricky Hilfiger in July after one year of being together.

"They were both too busy, the distance got hard, and both agreed that it was better for them to be single but stay friends," an unnamed source told US Magazine of Ora and Hillfiger's breakup. Another source added: "She's too busy with X Factor [UK] and doing her new music for long distance, and he can't spend all his time here either. It just wasn't going to work out between them. It wasn't a nasty split. They're both still close and care about each other."
