Carrie Underwood has denied she is romantically linked to Michael Phelps.
Recent rumors have suggested the country star and Olympic athlete are dating - something Underwood has now dismissed, as she tells Elle magazine: "I swear on everything, on my job, on my house, my dog... That's how serious I am. It's all just a lie."
Carrie also responded to claims she says she is still in touch with former flame Tony Romo (who is now dating Jessica Simpson): "It was just something that was said in passing, and I would never mean to say anything to hurt anybody or to stir up anything, because I'm just not about drama."
Underwood also sympathizes with Simpson, who reacted angrily to the rumors: "I might be mad too if somebody said my boyfriend was calling some other girl. So I can definitely see where would be coming from."
