Drake Once Again Denies Romance With Rihanna

Rap sensation Drake has laughed off reports of a romance with single singer Rihanna – insisting their collaboration is strictly professional. Rumors about their relationship came when they were spotted together in New York, just after the termination of relations Rihanna and Chris Brown.
But Drake – real name Aubrey Graham – insists they’ve been spending time together, while he tries to convince the Umbrella hitmaker to record a duet for his next album. He tells the New York Post,

“We’re just really good friends. We have great conversations about music, and we’re trying to figure out the perfect song we can collaborate on for my album. I’ve only worked with one other female before (Mary J Blige). I hope that Rihanna is onboard, and I’m also looking to work with Sade.”

Sugababes – “She’s Not Going To Be The Fourth Sugababe”

Sugababes have dashed hopes of a superstar recruit to the band, saying Rihanna won’t be joining the group after all. Participant group Amell Berraba (Amelle Berrabah) admitted that the girls were stunned by reports that the R & B star Rihanna is now the best friend of the band. Internet was full of rumors that Rihanna helps choose songs for their forthcoming album, and may even join them soon.
Amelle said:

“We have never actually met Rihanna. Everyone thinks we are best friends, but we don’t know her at all. Keisha was talking to someone and mentioned that Rihanna had been recording with Stargate, who had just finished working with us. Stargate did play her some of our songs and she loved them apparently, which is great, but that’s it. We don’t know her at all. So she is not going to be the fourth Sugababe. We are quite happy as we are, thanks.”

Chris Brown On Larry King – Preview

WATCH A PREVIEW HERE

R&B singer Chris Brown spoke exclusively with CNN about his arrest and sentence for assaulting Rihanna. You can watch the full interview on Larry King Live, Wednesday August 2nd at 9 p.m. ET.

LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) — Pop star Chris Brown has admitted guilt and apologized for assaulting his then-girlfriend Rihanna in February, but he does not remember hitting the singer, he told CNN’s Larry King.

Looking at police reports about the incident makes him feel like he’s reading about a stranger, Brown said in his first television interview since the arrest.

“I’m in shock, because, first of all, that’s not who I am as a person, and that’s not who I promise I want to be,” he said in an exclusive interview that airs Wednesday night.

“I just don’t know what to think. I’m just like, wow,” Brown said. “It’s crazy to me.”

Brown, 20, said he still loves singer Rihanna, whose full name is Robyn Rihanna Fenty.

But, he added, it is tough for him to look at the photo showing Rihanna’s battered face, the one image that might haunt and define him forever.

“When I look at it now, it’s just like, wow, like, I can’t believe that that actually happened,” Brown said.

He now has to keep his distance from Rihanna, because of a judge’s restraining order.

“We have to be like 10 yards away from each other,” Brown said.

The February argument began over an incident at a Beverly Hills party, according to Brown’s probation report.

An earlier, sworn statement by Los Angeles Police detective DeShon Andrews said the incident began when Rihanna found a text message on Brown’s cell phone from “a woman who Brown had a previous sexual relationship with.”

The pair argued while in a sports car driven by Brown, the police statement said.

It went on to describe the assault in great detail, saying Brown punched Rihanna — identified in the statement as Robyn F. — numerous times and put her in a head lock, restricting her breathing and causing her to start to lose consciousness.

He threatened to beat her and kill her, according to the statement, and he bit her ear and her fingers.

The detective said Brown sent a text message nine days later, apologizing.

Rihanna’s injuries included cuts and bruises inflicted by a large ring on Brown’s right hand, which he used to punch her, the probation report said.

Brown pleaded guilty to felony assault on June 22. A plea deal kept him out of jail. A second felony charge, making criminal threats, was dropped. He was sentenced to five years probation and six months of community labor.

“It means he walks the straight and narrow for five years,” said Mark Geragos, Brown’s attorney.

“I’ve grown to love this kid like a son or a nephew. I have a high degree of confidence — I’ll say it now so that you can play it back if he ever does anything — but a high degree of confidence that he’s not going to do anything like this in the future.”

Brown called the sentence fair and agreed that everything comes with consequences.

“They want me to pick up trash, remove graffiti,” he said. “I’m a hard worker, it’s something I’m willing to do.”

Why did it happen? How did it happen?

Those are questions Brown and his mother, Joyce Hawkins, have been asking.

“Chris has never, ever been a violent person, ever,” Hawkins said.

However, CNN obtained a probation report for Brown last week that said he and Rihanna were involved in at least two other domestic violence incidents before the February attack for which Brown was sentenced.

“The first incident occurred in Europe about three months before the present offense,” the report said.

“The victim [Rihanna] and the defendant [Brown] were involved in a verbal dispute and the victim [Rihanna] slapped the defendant [Brown]. He responded by shoving her into a wall.”

Another incident happened in January, three weeks before the Hollywood incident, when Brown and Rihanna were visiting her home country of Barbados, the report said.

“The defendant [Brown] and the victim [Rihanna] were visiting Barbados and were driving a Range Rover loaned to them by a local dealership,” the investigator wrote. “They had an argument inside the car. The defendant [Brown] exited and broke the front driver and passenger side windows of the car.”

Brown’s mother remembers being shocked and upset when he came to her after the attack in February and told her about it.

She said her husband was abusive — and Brown knew it. “I used to be scared to go to bed,” the pop star said.

Brown said he is not blaming that history for the attack on Rihanna. But, he added, nobody taught him how to control his emotions and anger.

Rihanna calls Brown’s mother “Mom.” The two have spoken and seen each other periodically since the incident. The court order that prevents her son from seeing Rihanna does not extend to Hawkins.

The singer has not seen Rihanna for a couple of months, and said the separation has been difficult, especially when it comes to her dating others.

“I definitely would be affected by it, but at the end of the day, I mean, we’re not together, so if she’s happy, I’m cool.”

But they will always be friends, Brown said.
