United: Justin Bieber leans in for a kiss from Selena Gomez at the Teen Choice Awards in Los Angeles tonight, seemingly laying to rest claims the couple had split up

They arrived separately, giving ammunition to reports they had gone their separate ways.

But Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez put rumours of a split to bed tonight as they shared a kiss inside the Teen Choice Awards ceremony in Los Angeles.

The couple, who sat next to each other, also put on an affectionate display backstage after Selena had performed with her band, The Scene.

The group won a surfboard awards for Choice Music Group and their songs Who Says and Love You Like A Love Song.

Selena, 19, won five awards to Justin's four. The Wizards of Waverly Place also conjured trophies for TV actress, female hottie and music group with her band The Scene.

'This is for all of you guys,' Gomez told the screeching crowd. 'This isn't mine.'


Going it alone: Earlier they arrived to the event separately, which fuelled the break-up rumours until they united later in the night


The Monte Carlo star looked stunning in an ivory strapless dress as she arrived at the awards show.

She posed alongside her band members from Selena Gomez and The Scene, as well as fellow Disney star Demi Lovato.

Meanwhile 17-year-old Justin - dressed in an leather waistcoat, bow tie and shirt - arrived alone, before having his photograph taken with model Tyra Banks.

He picked up four surfboard-shaped trophies as choice male music artist, male hottie, twit and TV villain for his 'CSI' guest starring role.

The Sun newspaper had claimed Gomez ended things with Justin because she didn't approve of his hip-hop music friends.

The actress and singer, who has been dating the Baby singer since the start of the year, was said to be worried about the influence his new friends were having on him.

In recent weeks, Justin has been spending more time publicly with Sean Kingston, rapper Lil Wayne, and singer Chris Brown who has a new song with the Canadian teenager.

Other multiple winners included 'Glee,' 'The Vampire Diaries,' 'The Twilight Saga,' 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,' Robert Pattinson and Taylor Swift.

'I feel like it's been a long time since I was a teenager, like, two years,' Swift joked.

Swift won a total of six awards: choice female music artist, country female artist, female red carpet fashion icon, country single for 'Mean' and break-up song for 'Back to December.'

The 21-year-old crooner was also honoured for her contributions to entertainment with the Ultimate Choice Award, the show's version of a lifetime achievement award.

'The Big Bang Theory' leading lady Kaley Cuoco hosted the 13th annual extravaganza at Universal Studios Hollywood's Gibson Amphitheatre.

Between dispensing awards like candy, Cuoco battled 'Chuck' star Zachary Levi in table tennis, danced alongside 'America's Best Dance Crew' winners Poreotix and jokingly quizzed teenagers about current affairs.

There were moments of seriousness amid the silliness. Sean Kingston made his first live televised appearance since recovering from injuries he suffered after crashing a watercraft into a Miami Beach bridge in May.

Demi Lovato, who entered a treatment facility last November to deal with 'emotional and physical issues,' was on hand to accept two awards.

Other winners who picked up surfboard-shaped trophies included Cameron Diaz as choice movie comedy actress for 'Bad Teacher,' Ellen DeGeneres as choice comedian and Ashton Kutcher as choice romantic comedy movie actor for 'No Strings Attached.'

Before leading the crowd in a singalong of Katy Perry's 'Teenage Dream,' Kutcher provided some topical advice.

'Don't ever charge anything on a credit card if you don't already have the money in the bank to pay for it,' he said.

The ceremony ended with a tribute to the 'Harry Potter' film franchise.

The final two instalments apparently bewitched online voters, winning such categories as choice sci-fi/fantasy movie, liplock, villain for Tom Felton and summer movie star for both Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe, who accepted his surfboard via satellite from New York.
