Nicole Scherzinger has denied she was kissing Chris Brown in a photograph of the pair together.

The X Factor judge, who is in a relationship with Formula One ace Lewis Hamilton, and Chris, were photographed at Hollywood's Supperclub nightclub.

But a rep for ex Pussycat Doll Nicole told TMZ that the pair were just "old friends" talking in a loud nightclub.

"There is absolutely no truth to the ridiculous story regarding Nicole and Chris Brown. The photos that have surfaced are old friends who were trying to talk at a very loud club. I guarantee there will be no photos of them kissing," the spokesperson said.

Chris, who is said to be rekindling his relationship with Rihanna, was pictured leaning in close to Nicole, who was wearing an off-the-shoulder top and beany hat, in the grainy photograph.

The pair were a part of a star-studded line-up hosting the Black Pyramid Party at Supperclub in Los Angeles on Tuesday night.

Chris is currently on probation for attacking We Found Love singer Rihanna in 2009.
