In a recent interview with Billboard, "Want to Want Me" singer Jason Derulo opened up about life after his split from his girlfriend of three years Jordin Sparks, E! News reports.

Derulo expressed his feeling that he "played nice" following his split from Sparks, but he is no longer willing to be nice anymore.

"I do get tired of playing nice," Derulo said, "especially when people think I did something wrong, or that she broke up with me. But it's so behind me."

Now that Derulo no longer has to play nice to Sparks, he admits that he is back on the dating market and compared his new dating life to a "deck of cards."

Derulo admitted to enjoying dating life however he is no rush to date again. Derail claims that he is "married" to his music.

"You can't pull me out of the studio," he said. "Songwriting is a muscle. The more you do it, the better you get at it."

And while Derulo is off enjoying the dating scene, Sparks has already moved on and locked in a relationship with rapper Sage the Gemini.

Sparks recently confirmed her relationship with Sage to People and described her new beau as a "really good guy."

"I think they're pretty obvious," Jordin said in reference to the Instagram photos she had posted of Sage prior to confirming their relationship .

"We're having fun. He's a really good guy, and the pictures speak for themselves. ... I don't just kiss people!"

Things are apparently so good between Sparks and Sage that she even has a nickname for the rapper that was inspired by the movie "Big Hero 6."

On Monday, May 11, Sparks posted an Instagram photo of herself kissing Sage and hash tagged the nickname #baemaxx which apparently means he's her beau to the max.

 You know...I'm starting to love Mondays. But everyday is a great day with my #baemaxx, @sagethegemini. #MCE

When asked to explain the premise behind the nickname, Sparks told People, "Well, you know, Big Hero 6, the big guy was [named] Baymax. We watched that two weeks ago ... and I was like, 'I love the name Baymax,' [Sage] was like, 'I'm your bae to the max,' and I was like, 'That's your nickname!' "
