Jason Derulo, Jordin Sparks Split: 'Trumpets' Singer Was in 'Negative Space' & Gives More Breakup Details [WATCH VIDEO]
Power 105.1’s "The Breakfast Club" is probably one of the last places a celebrity would want to go after a breakup, but Jason Derulo got through the brazen questions on Wednesday.
Co-host Angela Yee told Derulo that many assumed he and fellow singer Jordin Sparks split because of his forthcoming tour. DJ Envy also asked the Talk Dirty singer about another speculation – his infidelity. Derulo, however, denied both allegations and revealed the relationship deteriorated from small issues that began to add up.
“We had our problems in our relationship. Every relationship has their ups and downs and when you start having more downs than ups, you have to take a look at your relationship,” he the New York hosts. “I work really hard – I’m all over the world – and when I come home, the last thing that you want to do is argue and when it’s more arguing than having a good time you have to just take a look at it."
"I reached that point to where I felt like I was more in a negative space than positive," he added.
After more probing questions from Angela Yee and DJ Envy, the 25-year-old admitted that there was a lot of pressure to marry the American Idol alum. Derulo, whose career peaked tremendously in the past year, said he wasn’t ready to wed his girlfriend of three years.
The singer also revealed that they broke up over the phone following a heated argument at a restaurant. He also said there isn’t “animosity” between the two, but staying friends is difficult. Currently, they don’t speak at all.
“I catch myself looking at her Instagram,” he admitted. “I love her. You just don’t fall out of love with somebody like that.”
