This certainly isn't helping those romance rumors! Word on the street is that Ariana Grande and Big Sean have begun dating, and backstage at the 2014 MTV VMAs last night (Aug. 24) the two were holding hands!

MTV's dressing room cam caught Ariana and Big Sean walking hand-in-hand down a hallway reportedly just moments after her 'Bang Bang' performance. The footage was aired in a clip right before a commercial break. (But you can check it out in the video above!)

In the clip, Ariana even makes a point to switch hands -- without ever breaking contact with Big Sean -- which makes the gesture seem pretty intentional. She's also totally glowing, but that can be credited toward her amazing 'Bang Bang' performance.

The pair have yet to confirm their relationship, but Ariana split from Jai Brooks earlier this month, while Big Sean and Naya Rivera called off their engagement back in April.

We think Ari and Sean are totally adorable together. (Seriously, how cute are they in that video?) Let's just hope they last longer than the last couple spotted holding hands at the MTV VMAs.
