Rihanna gave Drake a taste of his own medicineIt seems hip-hop superstar Drake is definitely “Over” Rihanna. The 23-year-old rapper, who dated the “Rock Star” singer shortly after her split from troubled ex Chris Brown, told the New York Times he now believes the Barbadian beauty was more attracted to his music than his machismo. “I was a pawn,” Drake said of Rihanna, 22, who began romancing him shortly after she contacted him to write a song on her new album. When the song didn’t get released, the relationship hit a sour note and Rihanna let him go.
“She was doing exactly what I’ve done to so many women throughout my life, which is show them quality time, then disappear,” the Toronto native and former “Degrassi: The Next Generation” star explained. “I was like, 'Wow, this feels terrible.' ” But don’t sing the blues for him just yet. His friend, basketball star LeBron James, hopes to set him up with Halle Berry’s cousin, and Drake and Berry have reportedly been exchanging text messages to arrange the intros. |

Really excited to see her in concert! Got my tickets at Charged.fm (http://www.charged.fm/performer/item/7604/rihanna)
IF DRAKE LOOKIN FOR LOVE HE CAN COME THIS WAYY! LOL
RIHANNA'S A TRAMP PLAIN AND SIMPLE! I am so sick of this fixed, fake, media carrying the cool-aid for this chic! She has caused alot of damage in the lives of many young men but because she is a FEMALE no one in the media will tell the turth about her. She is an ABUSER, She attacked her 9 yr old brother with a bottle and took the heel of her shoe to her ex-boytoy! I can just imagine what she put CHris brown through on the faithful night! Rihanna is disgusting & I look forward to her getting what she has coming! The media supports you but the fans of music are all against you dear we see through the lies!
Apparently, Drake is a cornball. This explains why Rihanna "disappeared," because she wants nothing to do with him.
Another interesting point: Chris Brown has been known to hint in a song („Famous Girl“ on his album „Graffiti“) that Rihanna, while she was still his girlfriend, had cheated on him with Drake. No one wanted to believe Brown when he told that tale some time after his split-up with Rihanna, b/c he was the bad guy. But since Drake now confirmed a brief affair with Rihanna, albeit claiming it took place after Rihanna left Chris (but does Drake know that? No one knows when they split up exactly), that news also sheds some strange new light on Chrihannagate: Maybe Chris Brown wasn’t the only cheater in the game…
Rihanna is quite a liar in that case. She always insisted in interviews that there had been nothing going on between herself and Drake, alluded that the press made it all up, AND she kept saying that the two of them were good friends. Well, apparently they are not! If she lies to the public sometimes then she should never complain again if some media lie about her.
Yea rihanna is lame she just keeps messing up with all the men that's why she could never keep a stable relationship. But hey wish her all the luck wit her new album and new man..
Live & Learn - Life goes on.
Drake pls stop whinning. Riri jst got her hrt broken. U shouldnt even expect a relationship so soon. U should have helped her go tru d healing process
Drake..you can text me. vannessamckezi@gmail.com
Something tells me whoever e-mails this person is in for a surprise.
lol, please have a seat.
Anybody messing with Rihanna after that CB incident should tread very lightly. I'm sure she's not taking any prisoners anymore.
That tramp started that fight with Chris per the police report via the national coalition for men. I am so sick of the media never telling the truth and trying to constantly make this tramp out to be a victim. She sleep with Jay-Z to get on the banana boot to America now she has to continue to sleep around to get competent ppl to write songs for her. Remember when she said she slept with JUSTINE TIMBERLAKE but he never said a word about it! She's a tramp!
Hahahahaha ! That's funny that she did to him what he's done to women in the past. Well done Rihanna ! I think its funny. Maybe now he'll be a little bit smarter for the next relationship and actually hook up with someone out of love.
and this is entertainment news? wow...
No one ever said it was good news... it IS entertainment related. Not quite sure what your definition is...
why is this a story? wah I got dumped by a chick but its ok im txtn another one......ok?
Yes, but no one knows and/or cares about your love life. You aren't a celebrity.
sucks as a rapper/crooner AND as a boyfriend apparently. Poor, poor Drake.
The people of Barbados are called Barbadians. That is the correct term. As a Barbadian, I ought to know. We are also known as Bajans.That is a colloquial term that has become widely accepted. Hence, both terms are correct. End of story.
Greetings from Bim, that's colloquial for Barbados :).
tell Drake that you teach people how to treat you. How you treat others is how you will be treated. they learn acceptable behaviors from you. On to the next one!
I grew up in the Caribbean also and officially they are Barbadians-Bajans for short.
Just like Vincentians are referred to as Vincy and Trinidadians- Trini.
wow! though i've not seen drake before, but i do believe he his gud, gentle and responsible. Drake is good to go, rihanna's heart has been broken and she really drake to ammend and renew it for her.
There is no such thing as "Barbadian". Rihanna and the rest of the the people from Barbados are Bajan! geez
exactly... I grew up in the Caribbean, and the correct term was Bajan
And all this time I thought it was "BarbieDollians"....
Actually Barbadian is the correct term. Bajan is a colloquial term.
Please don't talk about something you don't know about. I am a Barbadian and I never in my life heard someone say that there is no such thing as a Barbadian. We do exist.
BA – if you were Bajan, you'd know that we're only considered "barbadians" by the english, and US. Like I said, we actually call ourselves Bajans.
