I literally have not done anything to my face, Maroney, 20, told the mag when asked about the allegations. Growing up in the social media world, it"s tough. Your face changes, you get older, your face fills out, and you fall into liking makeup and different stuff like that. Makeup and a camera can really make you look like a different person. (The athlete-turned-singer/actress told Seventeen that lipliner and highlighter are to credit for her lush lips.)

The gymnast, whose Instagram account is filled with sexy selfies nowadays, also addressed the rumors via Instagram on Monday, July 11.

Me thinking about how to get my face to look like Ive never done anything to my face when Ive never done anything to my face, she captioned a photo of herself in deep concentration.

Aside from defending her au natural pout, Maroney has been busy working on her fledgling singing career.

Ive loved writing songs since I was really young, she told the mag. "I thought I was going to be like Sia and sell my songs to people but I want to sing them. My biggest inspiration is Drake. I love the way that he tells stories. It has a little bit of a Calypso jam vibe. He"s political and real and always lyrically-driven in all the melodies. If there"s one person I want to sound like, it"s him.

Maroney plans on releasing a single soon and will be cheering on her former teammates Simone Biles, Gabby Douglas, Aly Raisman, Laurie Hernandez and Madison Kocian at the 2016 Olympics in Rio.
