While fans were quick to ship Trainor and Puth together after their makeout session, the two shut down any relationship rumors in shortly following their onstage appearance. “We’re friends … my whole vision when I made “Marvin Gaye” was for people to hear the record and to spontaneously just make out,” he said backstage after the performance. Trainor seemed to echo similar sentiments on Instagram, writing, “All about dat ass grab doe @charlieputh proud of you Charlie #imsingle.” In a 2016 interview on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” Puth doubled down on his aforementioned statement and even described the stunt as a “visual aesthetic” for the song.
