Rihanna Dating Matt Kemp – While Chris Brown is busy picking up trash and complaining about his waning album sales on Twitter, Rihanna officially has a new man in her life. That man is Matt Kemp. Rihanna first broke the news when she appeared on the Ryan Seacrest talk show.
“He’s my boyfriend. It’s new and it’s fun and it’s nothing too serious,” she said “I don’t want anything that’s going to take up so much of my energy and time right now in a bad way. I just want to have fun and that’s what it’s about.”

Kemp, who is 25 years old, plays for the Los Angeles Dodgers and is notoriously popular with the female fan base in the city. His experimentation has also landed him in a bit of trouble in the past. When he was 17 years old, Kemp and four other individuals had a rape complaint filed against them, although no charges were ever filed on the young men.

Rihanna saw her popularity rise after she was severely beaten by her fellow singer boyfriend, Chris Brown in Hollywood. Brown, who was driving a Lamborghini at the time, punched Rihanna in the face several times while driving. It is reported that there was an argument beforehand that had sparked the confrontation, and some sources have said that Rihanna may have thrown the keys to his rental car out of the window, prompting the violent exchange.

Brown is currently under a restraining order that prevents the singer from coming near Rihanna until 2014. Brown recently has claimed that his violent exchange with Rihanna has caused several large chain stores to boycott his album releases. Brown claimed that several of these stores never even put his album on the shelves after the album was released. These claims were made on Twitter and have not been substantiated.
