Is Joel Madden on a date with another lady?! No way! Get your mind out of the gutter!

Good Charlotte's lead singer met up with singer/songwriter Bonnie McKee for a little coffee and conversation at Le Pain Quotidien in Beverly Hills on Tuesday. The rockin' duo shared a warm hug as they joined up with a few other friends in the Hills of Beverly.

While we don't know exactly why they met, the orange-haired singer, who co-wrote such hits as "California Gurls," "Teenage Dream," "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)," "Part of Me," "Wide Awake," and "Roar" with Katy Perry, was probably joining up with Joel to write song's for the band's upcoming album. Maybe Good Charlotte's new record will be a whole lot poppier than previous releases?

Joel and brother Benji, who famously dated Paris Hilton, Eliza Doolittle, and Sophie Monk, formed Good Charlotte back in 1996 in Maryland. The band has put out five studio albums so far: Good Charlotte (2000), The Young and the Hopeless (2002), The Chronicles of Life and Death (2004), Good Morning Revival (2007), and Cardiology (2010) as well as two compilations: Greatest Remixes (2008) and Greatest Hits (2010). It's been four years since their last one -- so fans are eagerly awaiting for some Good Charlotte aural candy.

Umm Good Charlotte better hurry up -- someone has to tell Taylor Swift how to feel!
