Chris Brown revealed during an interview with Los Angeles hip hop station Power 106 on Friday that he and Rihanna have called it quits.

Chris Brown, 23, made the revelation when the interviewer asked him directly, “Are you still with Rihanna?”

“Uh, no – that’s the short answer,” replied the rapper.

Chris Brown revealed during an interview with Los Angeles hip hop station Power 106 on Friday that he and Rihanna have called it quits

The radio station announced the news with a tweet that stated: “Are you still w/ @Rihanna?” @ChrisBrown: “Uh,no-that’s the short answer” just now to @BigBoy POWER 106 LA @TuneIn http://bit.ly/o1QLJd”

According to Fuse, the radio station plans to post the interview – which was recorded this week in Los Angeles and released in segments – online shortly.

Some fans have questioned whether the statement is true, but Power 106 is standing by the news, stating: “We wouldn’t have tweeted it if it wasn’t true.”

Rihanna, 25, meanwhile, sent out a tweet early Friday morning that may allude to the breakup, stating: “This is terrible.”

But she mysteriously deleted the message a short while later, choosing to rather re-tweet a message about her star sign Pisces: “It’s the heart of a #Pisces that makes us soft mannered BUT is that same heart of a #Pisces that will make us get in your ass if needed.”

The news comes just days after Chris Brown spoke at length with Ryan Seacrest about the pair’s reconciliation after he brutally beat her in a vicious 2009 attack, leaving her severely bruised and battered.

In his most candid interview yet, Chris Brown took full responsibility for the incident, admitting that the attack was completely his fault.

“It’s all about my responsibility,” the rapper told Ryan Seacrest in an interview with KIIS-FM radio on Tuesday.

Chris Brown says that he tried his best to reform himself over the years until the couple recently reconciled and that he was never sure that Rihanna would even speak to him again.

He added that he was “eternally grateful” that in the end Rihanna found it within herself to forgive him, leading to their reconciliation.

“I just tried my best to be the best man I could be over the years and just show her how remorseful and sorry I was for the incident and that time was probably the worst part of my life and being that she has and she’s a wonderful person I’m eternally grateful and thankful,” Chris Brown said.

Rihanna took to the stage 70 minutes late for her Diamonds world tour in Montreal on Sunday night.

Luckily for her patient fans Rihanna proved worth waiting for, showing her figure in a pair of thigh high white boots.

The singer teamed the boots with a transparent T-shirt dress baring the legend “sea of desire” and black underwear.

The outfit proved just one of six equally outrageous outfits.

They included a pop art inspired two-piece, in clinging red and yellow PVC, and studded black leather underwear, which she wore with another pair of over-the-knee boots.

Rihanna, 25, wore her hair curled, flowing and long, with half her head shaved.Earlier her fans had been left waiting as she took her time coming on stage.

The delayed start to the gig came after Rihanna was forced to cancel two shows of her Diamonds world tour on doctor’s orders after suffering a bout of laryngitis.

The singer seemed fully recovered as she belted out her set in Canada.

One of the more tender moments came as Rihanna dedicated the song Diamonds to her late grandmother Dolly, whose birthday it was.

Rihanna, 25, was glowing as she sang all her classic hits inside the Wells Fargo Arena as part of her Diamond World Tour.

Rihanna has revealed her relationship with Chris Brown could go all the way, including having children together.

In a sultry shoot for ELLE UK, Rihanna has revealed plans to start a family with Chris Brown, why she feels compelled to share so much of her life through social media and her hopes for her future.

Divulging the secrets in her life is starting to become important to Rihanna, who was discovered in 2005 and has worked ever since, and the 25-year-old singer has explained this is why she shares so much of her personal life on Instagram.

Showing off her incredible figure and fierce attitude Rihanna wears kitten ears and a dark mask in the shoot by Mariano Vivacano while wearing designs by fashion houses Maison Martin Margiela, Louis Vuitton and Givenchy.

Speaking frankly about her relationship with Chris Brown, who assaulted her before the 2009 Grammy Awards, Rihanna said: “Stay [her new single] is a story about having love that close and wanting it to last forever. You don’t have that feeling with everybody so when you have it you don’t want to let go of it. I would definitely say that he [Chris Brown] is the one I have that kind of relationship with.”

On the subject of children Rihanna said: “I will probably have a kid. And I’m praying I can go on vacation for a good month. And I’ll have set some things up so I don’t have to tour for the rest of my life, even though I love touring. I want health and happiness in five years. I want to be healthy and happy.”

Despite critics branding Rihanna a bad influence on women of her generation for taking Chris Brown back the singer remains unapologetic, explaining: “Now that we’re adults we can do this right. We got a fresh start and I’m thankful for that. Right now that’s just what we want, a great friendship that’s unbreakable.”

And the social media savvy Rihanna is tired of lying to her fans about her life, explaining she uses Instagram to make it clear the type of person she is.

“Well I Instagram everything about my life, whether it’s smoking pot, in a strip club, reading a Bible verse – how crazy, I know! – or hanging out with my best friend, who happens to be Chris.

“Everybody wanted to know what was happening in my life. Is she a drug addict? No. Is she an alcoholic? No. Is she a victim? No. That’s when I got the gun [tattoo]. It was a symbol of strength. I’ll never be a victim.

“That’s why I’m posting pictures of myself smoking pot, to tell the truth about myself. I’ve got so much to think about, why bring all this extra s*** by being dishonest?”

But Rihanna’s open attitude doesn’t swing with everyone.

“I’m not afraid of any person in this world but my mother. I’m terrified of her!

“She called me two days ago and reeled me in about two naked pictures Melissa [her best friend] put up on Instagram – a sneak-peek from a photo book she’s making about me. My mom, she went crazy on me.

“I was like embarrassed. I felt like I got my ass whupped in front of my class in school! She said, <<This was like a private moment and you’re just parading this around>>. She humbled the f*** out of me.”

Although she appears on the pages of Elle UK in a number of slick designer outfits, Rihanna is clearly a fan of the high street, designing a clothing range with River Island.

“High-street shops pay more attention to the kids on the street than to the runways, so in a way I like to mix both. I love a high-end bag or jacket with a simple dress.

“I just thought, I’m going to make something for everybody – every personality, every body type.”

Chris Brown has opened up about his 2009 attack on Rihanna, saying that it is the “greatest regret” of his life.

Although Chris Brown, 23, described the assault as a “mistake” he also admitted that the couple had moved on and Rihanna has “forgiven” him.

Speaking to The Mirror, Chris Brown, who is desperately trying to re-vamp his image, claimed that he has had to work hard for Rihanna’s forgiveness.

“That night was the deepest regret of my life, the biggest mistake,” said Chris Brown, having clearly come to terms with the wrong he did.

“But she loves me – what can I say? I’m forgiven… but, yes, I worked hard for it,” he added, suggesting that the couple had put the incident behind them even if other people hadn’t.

“Sometimes you row, you fight, with the one you love and things get said, stuff spirals,” Chris Brown added.

Chris Brown continues to face a public backlash against his actions, which left Rihanna bruised and battered after he attacked her during an argument back in 2009.

He was sentenced to 5-year probation and six months of community service by a court after admitting to the assault.

Due in part to the fact that the pair have reconciled, they’ve faced a fresh onslaught from domestic abuse campaigners and the general public.

Chris Brown, who spent Monday at Elton John’s Oscar party without Rihanna, seemed unfazed by host Seth MacFarlane’s joke about him during the ceremony.

As he introduced Quentin Tarantino’s violent revenge western Django Unchained Seth MacFarlane described it as, “the story of a man fighting to get back his woman, who’s been subjected to unthinkable violence – or as Chris Brown and Rihanna call it, a date movie”.

The reference to Chris Brown’s 2009 assault of Rihanna drew gasps from the audience in Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre.

Although Rihanna wasn’t at the Oscar party with her other half, the couple holidayed together in Hawaii last week to celebrate her 25th birthday.

Rihanna ended her night at The Box nightclub in London with a cut knee after being assaulted by an aggressive man outside the exclusive nightspot.

According to eye-witnesses, the injury came after a crazed fan threw a bottle of Lucozade at Rihanna as he screamed something about her on-off boyfriend Chris Brown.

In the commotion, the singer fell against a shop shutter and grazed her knee.

The injury was deemed serious enough for her to require immediate medical attention, according to Media Take Out.

Rihanna, 24, is in UK for London Fashion Week where she presented her debut clothing collection for high street behemoth River Island.

The singer was enjoying a night of clubbing with Cara Delevingne on Saturday following her London Fashion Week debut.

Chris Brown and Rihanna’s romance appears to have soured just days later after they looked happy at the Grammys.

It appears that the couple refused to acknowledge one another after both arriving at the Playhouse Nightclub in Los Angeles on Wednesday night.

Rihanna didn’t know that Chris Brown was expected at the same event, revealed the source.

When VIP hosts asked Rihanna if she would like to be seated with her boyfriend, she declined and demanded to be put somewhere else.

“Rihanna refused to sit with or even near Chris – and when Chris noticed she was there, he made a huge show of rubbing his presence in her face,” said a source.

“He promptly ordered three more bottles of ace of spades which came out with in a procession of sparklers and scantily clad cocktail waitresses, causing a spectacle, which he clearly wanted Rihanna to see.”

Rihanna and Chris Brown had arrived separately at the Popular Demand’s 1 Year Anniversary event, and left without each other at the end of the night.

Chris Brown arrived at the celebrity hotspot around midnight, armed with a crew of around 20 people.

Rihanna entered the club half an hour later, accompanied by her group of bodyguards.

The singers never once communicated with each other during the course of the evening as they sat across the room from one another, said the source.

Chris Brown left the club around 2.15 a.m. in a metallic grey Lamborghini, wearing his hoodie over his baseball cap.

Rihanna made it a late night, leaving closer to 3 a.m.

The chilly atmosphere between the stars is a far cry from their loved-up appearance as they sat side by side in the front row at the Grammys.

Then the two snuggled up to each other, smiling and laughing together as they took in the show.

Rihanna also wore a diamond ring on her left ring finger during her performance onstage, fueling speculation that the pair plan to tie the knot.

But their reconciliation has not been without drama.

Rihanna’s former best friend Katy Perry has reportedly stopped speaking to her following her reconciliation with Chris Brown, who is still on probation for beating her in 2009.

Rihanna accompanied Chris Brown to a LA court for his probation hearing over 2009 assault of her.

According to sources on TMZ, Rihanna, 24, “blew Chris a kiss and said some supportive words to him before he entered the courtroom”.

Chris Brown, 23, was in court to hear allegations from the Los Angeles prosecutors office that he may have lied about completing his community service.

TMZ reports the judge ordered Chris Brown to meet with his probation officer in Los Angeles within 48 hours to discuss the allegations.

The judge scheduled another hearing on April 5 due to needing “more time” to review the evidence presented by Los Angeles prosecutors. Chris Brown also needs to speak to the probation officers.

Rihanna and Chris Brown then left the courtroom “arm in arm” with Brown looking “dejected”, added TMZ.

Earlier, the couple had left Chris Brown’s home together with the star carrying his suit under his arm.

Rihanna wore sunglasses and kept her head down with her long hair partially covering her face.

The couple were also accompanied by Chris Brown’s mother Joyce Hawkins amid allegations that Brown “lied about completing community service hours”, which formed part of his probation deal.

Chris Brown’s lawyer Mark Geragos and the Richmond Virginia Police Department have vociferously denied the allegations.

Mark Geragos gave a news conference after the hearing on Wednesday where he said: “I have never had a client who has been tortured like Chris Brown has.”

He added that Rihanna had been in court to “support” Chris Brown and was unimpressed with the allegations.

“[She’s] completely supportive,” he said.

“She thinks it’s utterly ridiculous to him.”

Expressing his fury at the District Attorney’s Office, Mark Geragos said: “The D.A. is paralyzed with the thought his probation will be terminated. If that happens they won’t be able to jock him around like they’ve been jocking him around.”

Chris Brown was in court following allegations by L.A. prosecutors on Tuesday that there is no credible evidence he completed his community service sentence for beating Rihanna, and citing several other incidents that they say point to anger management issues with the singer.

The Los Angeles County district attorney’s office filed a motion which focuses on issues with Brown’s community labor in Virginia, citing numerous discrepancies and claiming the R&B singer was essentially unsupervised.

Chris Brown is reported by E! News to have slammed the allegations on his Instagram account, writing: “I can handle the hate but enough is enough yo! ‘Im a human being and I honestly think I deserve respect i’m sick of being accused…I’m just tired of this sh**.”

“A day in my shoes is a day in hell,” he added.

Standing in a rust red laced up swimsuit, Rihanna, 24, commands the attention in the sizzling shot.

A pair of hooped earrings, several rings, a necklace and body chain completes her look.

Another frame sees the fresh faced chart-topper bending forward as she gets a feel for the water.

Backed by the stunning view of rocky mountains and the ocean, Rihanna proves that she was the perfect choice to be the face of the 431 square kilometres haven.

It seems all is well in the world of Rihanna and Chris Brown as they stepped out for a Slurpee together earlier this week.

After seeing in the New Year together, Rihanna and Chris Brown looked relaxed and dressed down as they drove to get some iced drinks in Chris’s sports car.

Rihanna, 24, looked on-trend but casual for her drinks date with her man, showing off her famous figure in a pair of skin-tight blue jeans paired with black lace-up shoes.

Showing a hint of stomach, she wore a cropped red sweatshirt and large gold hooped earrings hung from her ears.

Chris Brown, 23, also looked dressed-down but stylish in khaki trousers, a black hoodie and a dark jacket.

While his girlfriend was instantly recognizable, Chris Brown made more of an attempt to go incognito, wearing a black cap on his head and pulling his hood up over it.

The next day Rihanna was flying solo as she made her first trip of the new year to a nail salon to get her talons seen to.

The singer was spotted leaving the beauty parlor wearing a tiny pair of cut-off denim shorts in Hollywood in Thursday.

It seems Rihanna and Chris Brown are doing everything possible to announce to the world they’re back together as she posts new photos of themselves online appearing to share the same bed.

“Good morning! Still haven’t slept lol #hello2013,” Rihanna tweeted on Tuesday, with a photo of herself peering out from a spotted duvet.

The comforter is distinctly similar to the one posted – and deleted – by Chris Brown as he lounged in the early hours of January 1st.

“Mornings,” Chris Brown wrote from his bed, with only his legs in view.

A lump under the sheets seemed to suggest someone was lying beside him.

The snaps come after a very public display of affection between the pair, who spent Christmas Day front row at a Los Angeles Lakers game.

Rihanna, 24, left Barbados to spend Christmas Day with Chris Brown, 23, in Los Angeles.

The pair were spotted cuddling and flirting at the Staples Centre while watching the Lakers took on the New York Knicks.

The volatile couple reconciled earlier this year even though Chris is still on probation for assaulting her in 2009.

But the status of their relationship has recently been the topic of speculation following a series of cryptic tweets from both parties.

Rihanna took to her Instagram account on December 18 to post a message which appeared to confirm reports the couple had split.

She wrote: “Being single sucks. The only thing I get to do anymore is whatever the f*** I want to do.”

It followed claims Chris Brown partied with scantily-clad female models and lunched with ex Karrauche Tran while Dubai.

But both Rihanna and Chris Brown later posted old pictures of themselves together, hinting that they were missing each other.

A source told HollywoodLife.com Chris Brown surprised Rihanna with a romantic painting to celebrate a new start in their relationship.

“He painted this picture of him and her together and it’s [amazing]… It’s him and her together – she’s looking forward and he’s kissing her on the cheek. Chris painted the gold necklace around her neck that he got her and at the bottom he wrote <<you’re my girl for life>>,” the insider said.

As Rihanna heads home to Barbados for Christmas it has been revealed that she has donated $1.75 million to a local cancer hospital.

The donation was made in memory of her late grandmother Clara Braithwaite, who died of cancer in June.

Rihanna’s generous donation led to the radiotherapy department at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Bridgetown, being renamed the Clara Braithwaite Centre for Oncology and Nuclear Medicine, in memory of her “Gran Gran Dolly”.

The money paid for three vital pieces of equipment worth more than $3.5 million Barbados dollars.

Rihanna, 24, said: “This was my way of giving back to Barbados, in a form of philanthropy, by assisting the QEH in its continued modernization programme.

“I believe that this will have a huge impact on the people of Barbados. This was all done to save lives or at least extend them.”

Rihanna was accompanied by Dolly’s husband, Lionel, and her mother, Monica Fenty as she visited the department this weekend.

The singer’s love of her grandmother was well known to fans, with the star often speaking of her on Twitter.

When she took a turn for the worse earlier this year Rihanna jetted to New York to be at her bedside.

And following her death Rihanna posted a series of family photos in a tribute to Clara Braithwaite.

As she holidays in Barbados with friends, Rihanna uploaded a picture of herself and Chris Brown holding hands to her Twitter account on Thursday.

Failing to adhere to the notion of the Instagram trend known as throwback Thursday, the 24-year-old opted to post an image of her and Chris Brown, 23, taken only seven days before.

Taking part in the popular activity in which Instagram users post snaps to the application as they reminisce over the past, Rihanna appears to be deeply missing Chris Brown.

In the black and white image Chris Brown’s hand can been seen resting on Rihanna’s thigh as she places her hand over his.

The caption which accompanied the image read: “#THROWBACKtolastTHURSDAY.”

Last Tuesday Rihanna posted a similar snap to her Instagram account which saw her snuggling with what appeared to be Brown’s tattooed arm.

“Damn……. I miss my n***a #thuglife #BFFlife,” the pop star tweeted to her 27.1 million followers.

Also taking part in the social network tradition Chris Brown further fuelled the Rihanna rumor mill on Thursday by posting a loving picture of the pair, sparking claims they may have reconciled.

In fact, the picture is believed to have been taken in Paris, just a day before the pair sensationally split after Rihanna heard Sweet Love rapper Chris partied with scantily-clad female models and lunched with ex Karrauche Tran in Dubai.

Too add further mystery, to what could be seen as a “forgive me” post, Chris Brown deleted the picture after just 15 minutes.

But thousands of Twitter users retweeted the snap, which shows Rihanna wearing a red fur coat, which she was seen wearing on December 10 in Paris, the same day Chris Brown was spotted leaving her hotel room in the City of Lights.

Rumors swirled that the star was trying to elicit forgiveness from his on-again off-again lover after she posted a series of vitriolic Twitter comments about being single.

After weeks of happy texts aimed at Chris Brown and photos of the pair together, Rihanna wrote: “Examine what you tolerate”, “Goodbye muthaf*****”, “You give, you get, then you give it the f*** back” and “Claps for the basic b****** (sic)”.

In between posting raunchy images of herself, Rihanna followed it up, musing: “Never underestimate a man’s ability to make you feel guilty for his mistakes.”

Of course, Rihanna can not be with Chris Brown as she is currently holidaying in a luxury beach front villa in Barbados.

It isn’t clear if Chris Brown wants to get back together with Rihanna or simply remind her of the fun they had together. Since they first split in 2009, Rihanna often referred to her ex as her “best friend”.

Meanwhile Karrauche Tran’s best friend Christina Milian, 31, claims Karrueche has always been Chris Brown’s “girlfriend” despite Chris previously announcing they had split last October.

When asked about her friend’s relationship status with the 23-year-old R&B star, The Voice USA star said last week on The Wendy Williams Show on Friday: “You know what, from what I’ve always known, she’s his girlfriend.”

Rihanna has hinted she’s once again split from Chris Brown.

Rihanna and Chris Brown reconciled earlier this year even though Chris is still on probation for beating her up in 2009 but she took to her Instagram account on Tuesday to post a message which appears to confirm reports the couple have called time on their relationship.

She posted an “R Card” which read: “Being single sucks. The only thing I get to do anymore is whatever the f**k I want to do.”

Rihanna, 24, was left reeling recently after her on/off boyfriend Chris Brown was pictured partying with scantily-clad girls on tour in Paris and enjoying a meal with his ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran in Dubai and vented her feelings in a note to her fans.

She uploaded a photograph to Twitter of a heartfelt letter, thanking fans for their constant support and telling them to stand up for what they believe in and refusing to be defeated by mistakes and “curve balls”.

“I look forward to embarking on this ride with you, unwilling to sacrifice what we believe in, taking our lessons and growing from them. Don’t let one thing shake your core. Let our inspirations drive us, never steering from who we truly are….”

Rihanna also took to Twitter to vent her feelings, writing: “Examine what you tolerate’, ‘Goodbye muthaf*****’, ‘You give, you get, then you give it the f*** back’ and ‘Claps for the basic b****** (sic)”
In between posting raunchy images of herself, she followed it up yesterday, musing: “Never underestimate a man’s ability to make you feel guilty for his mistakes.”

With The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey just released you can decide for yourself comparing that film to these hysterical images of celebrities turned into Gollums albiet with the magic of computer graphics as opposed to a corrupting magic ring.

Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt and Rihanna may be sex symbols but the look of a feral hobbit doesn’t suit them.

Hollywood.com created the images of celebrities with Gollum Eye in celebration of The Hobbit’s release.

Director Peter Jackson’s Oscar-winning series of epic films based on the works of J.R.R. Tolkien were huge critical and financial successes.

The new film, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, is already a smash having broken two US records at the box office to become the highest grossing Christmas movie of all time.

Peter Jackson’s adaption of JRR Tolkien’s classic novel kicked off with takings of $37.5 million – the biggest December Friday opener in domestic history.

The film then took $28.1 million on Saturday to claim the record of the largest December weekend at the American ticket office, even without Sunday’s takings being calculated. Warner Brothers are predicting the movie could earn over $85 million in the U.S. for the whole weekend.

Chris Brown further fueled rumors of a rekindled romance with his ex-girlfriend Rihanna by posting a black-and-white picture of the pair enjoying smoke-filled fun times on a couch Sunday morning.

In the candid snap, Chris Brown, 23, has a hand-rolled spliff in his mouth as clouds of smoke billow around the 24-year-old pop star who revealed her bare midriff while enveloped in a large camouflage coat.

Meanwhile Breezy, whose brutal assault on Rihanna in 2009 left her hospitalized, was dressed casually in a baseball cap and white t-shirt.

The noted marijuana aficionado publicly has flaunted her love of herb.

Last summer, Rihanna was seen wearing a “how-to-roll-a-joint” T-shirt while grabbing late-night munchies at Giorgio Baldi.

Rihanna also tweeted a picture of herself holding a joint wrapped in colorful, patterned rolling papers.

Back in May, Rihanna posted a bizarre photo on her Instagram of a woman smoking a joint so enormous it required three women to hold it up and a fourth to light it.

“Why she suckin on my soul mate???” tweeted Rihanna, who has called reggae legend Bob Marley her “hero”.

And when photos of Rihanna appearing to roll a marijuana blunt on her bodyguard’s head emerged from the Coachella Music Festival in April, she irreverently addressed the snaps by tweeting: “@rihanna ran out of f***s to give.”

Meanwhile Chris Brown just reactivated his Twitter Sunday after shutting it down following a Twitter war with comedian Jenny Johnson, but he’s opted to use his Instagram instead.

“I used to use my Twitter account to vent, but now I mostly use it for marketing and promotions,” the Grammy winner recently told XXL.

“Even if the media asks me something, if it’s cool then it’s, <<What’s up?>>. But if it’s anything that’s too negative, I don’t care to respond.”

Chris Brown then added: “In the beginning, I used to be hot. I’m normal. I’m human, so if anybody says something that’s a lie, I’m numb to it. I’ve smartened up.”

Rihanna and Chris Brown couple have been posting suggestive pictures for weeks, including one image of a new gold choker – believed to be a gift from Chris – with the caption: “He told me <<you better not give it away>>.”

The Barbadian beauty made sure to show off the new sparkler on her neck while launching her third fragrance Nude at Macy’s Westfield Saturday.

Chris Brown has decided to delete his Twitter account following a foul mouthed attack on comedy writer Jenny Johnson who challenged him over his 2009 assault of Rihanna.

Before the deletion Chris Brown appeared to confirm reports that he is once more dating Rihanna, tweeting: “Just ask Rihanna if she mad??????”

Jenny Johnson, who has nearly 300,000 Twitter followers, had challenged Chris Brown by telling him: “Being a worthless piece of s*** can really age a person.”

Her comment came in response to his tweet: “I look old as f***! I’m only 23…”

In response to Jenny Johnson’s tweet Chris Brown let rip in a foul mouthed attack: “Take them teeth out when u Sucking my d*** HOE.”

Chris Brown then lost his temper and amongst his abusive tweets told her: “mom says hello… She told me not to s**** in ur mouth, wanted me to s*** right on the retina.”

Jenny Johnson, who lives with her husband in Texas, replied: “Your mom must be so proud of you.”

And she then ended her side of the conversation, explaining: “Okay. I’m done. All I got from that exchange with Chris Brown is that he wants to s*** and fart on me.”

And she added: “I have zero respect for a person who seems unapologetic for the terrible crime he committed and shows no signs of changing.”

Rihanna and Chris Brown are not shy about showing followers on their Twitter accounts that they were enjoying one another’s private company on Saturday, despite some fans expressing their opposition to the pair reuniting.

Rihanna was Unapologetic about posting an image of Chris Brown on a bed surrounded by The Simpsons memorabilia.

His cap and coat were tossed to the side of the unmade bed and Rihanna gave the snap a hash tag of #BartObsessed.

Apart from the fact that they have been seen together recently as he tours, Chris Brown’s identity was clear because of his eye-catching tattoos.

They did little to quash rumors as they spent Thanksgiving partying together in Berlin on Thursday.

Rihanna had attended Chris Brown’s concert in the German capital and joined him at the after-show party at a night club.

She was seen doing shots at the venue while Chris Brown puffed on a cigarette. They were later spotted getting into the same car.

Chris Brown was charged with assaulting then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009.

The pair, who can be heard dueting on a song together on Rihanna’s new album Unapologetic, insist they are now just friends.

And while she has scotched claims they are an item once again, Rihanna recently described her former flame as “kinda alright”.

Rihanna was supporting Chris Brown on his Carpe Diem tour after wrapping her own tour, 777, which saw her perform in seven countries in seven days, after turning a jumbo jet into her own private tour bus.

Chris Brown picked a rather poor choice of costume as he got in the holiday spirit for Halloween, on Wednesday.

Chris Brown, 23, dressed himself up as a gun toting Arab man complete with ammunition and thawb.

It is unclear if Chris Brown was supposed to be a Sheik or some kind of terrorist, but his costume is sure to have raised some eyebrows.

Chris Brown posted the picture on his Twitter account with him and his friends all wearing similar outfits and holding up toy machine guns and pistols.

Their costumes, which included long fake beards, were seemingly an effort to look like stereotypical terrorists.

He captioned the picture: “Ain’t nobody F***ing wit my clique!!!! #ohb,” which is a line from Kanye West song Clique.

Chris Brown was dressed up to attend the party of his ex girlfriend Rihanna, which was being held at Greystone Manor Supperclub, in West Hollywood.

He was clearly in the mood to enjoy himself as he arrived over an hour earlier than the host, Rihanna.

Upon his arrival, Chris Brown was given a very warm welcome from one female admirer who showed off her legs in her ring master costume.

While Chris Brown and Rihanna, who was crowned the Queen of West Hollywood Halloween Parade, have put their tumultuous history behind them, Irish rap trio Original Rudeboys have not.

The group reportedly turned down an offer to perform with Chris Brown next month in Dublin, Ireland, because of his domestic abuse history with Rihanna.

During an interview with RTE, the boys said: “Even though it’s a huge opportunity to play in the O2 with a major hip-hop star, and a substantial fee was offered, we are completely against Chris Brown’s assault on Rihanna.”

Chris Brown announced his split with model girlfriend Karrueche Tran, citing his “friendship” with Rihanna as a reason behind the break up.

But Chris Brown, 23, apparently spent the day with the model on Monday, with onlookers suggesting that the pair went to a studio in Burbank together.

Karrueche Tran, 23, is reported to have left Chris Brown’s house with the singer but in separate cars, according to Just Jared.

They are then reported to have stopped at a gas station together where Chris Brown’s bodyguard handed over cash for Karrueche Tran’s gas.

The bodyguard then accompanied Chris Brown in the passenger seat of his black sports car.

Chris Brown, who spent time with Rihanna at a Beverly Hills party over the weekend, released a statement confirming the split at the beginning of this month.

He said: “I have decided to be single to focus on my career. I love Karrueche very much but I don’t want to see her hurt over my friendship with Rihanna.

“I’d rather be single allowing us to both be happy in our lives.”

However, Chris Brown has released a new video where he apparently describes his mixed feelings about loving two women at the same time, which has been widely interpreted as a reference to his former love.

Today’s sighting is not the first time speculation has been rife about a reconciliatory between the pair.

Karrueche Tran was pictured leaving Brown’s Hollywood home one morning wearing the same clothes from the night before, a few days after the split was announced.

Rihanna recently admitted to Oprah Winfrey that she still considers Chris Brown to be the “love of her life”.

Rihanna has defended her decision to spend time with Chris Brown in a new interview for the November issue of Vogue, in which she also poses in a stunning photo shoot, captured by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz.

In her accompanying interview with the fashion bible, Rihanna explains that outsiders have not yet seen how her relationship with Chris Brown has changed since that fateful day three years ago.

“The world hasn’t let go. They haven’t seen any progress in our friendship, because they don’t see anything,” she said.

“But they’re not on the inside. They can’t see what I see, unless they’re sitting in my point of view. I guess I’ll learn to accept that.”

This is Rihanna’s second Vogue shoot and cover.

For the April 2011 cover of the magazine, Rihanna looked stunning in a mermaid inspired and figure hugging gown.

This time, Rihanna, 24, is red-hot in a strapless scarlet lace red dress, and is sporting her haircut de jour, a short pixie crop.

In inside shots, Rihanna poses in a field of wheat wearing a similar scarlet dress, provocatively stretching out as she relaxes in the great outdoors.

In another snap, the desert dust blows up the skirt of her stunning black Haute Couture leather and lace gown, which she pairs with sheer mesh fingerless gloves.

Rihanna was clearly excited by her second Vogue cover, tweeting on Saturday: “Mama I made it! Here’s #2.”

Rihanna’s quotes to Vogue come as it was recently revealed that she will go public with Chris Brown following the release of her next album, Unapologetic.

A source told gossip site HollywoodLife: “She is hitting the studio real hard these days, but talks to Chris every step of the way.

“As soon as she finishes up with this album, they will be out. She’s gotta focus and get that album together and stay paid.

“She’s tied up and busy with the album, but she makes time for Chris late nights. She did one night before – I think, like, Tuesday. I’m not sure but I know she saw him this week.”

Speculation has been rife that the pair are back together, especially after they were spotted cuddling up to one another at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn at the beginning of October.

Chris Brown has since split up with his girlfriend Karreuche Tran, seemingly to make way for his relationship with Rihanna.

In the same breath, Rihanna told Vogue that she wanted to date a “ballsy” man.

In her interview, presumably conducted before her recent reconciliation with Chris Brown, Rihanna also bemoaned about her lack of a love life and said that she wished a guy would pluck up the courage to approach her because she just wants to have fun on a date.

She said: “I would love to go on a date. You don’t think that? I’m a woman. A young woman, vibrant, and I love to have fun.

“No one asks. Trust me on that. I’m waiting for the man who’s ballsy enough to deal with me. And I have too many vaginas around me at this point!”

Rihanna revealed that confidence and a sense of humor are the main qualities she looks for in a man.

“Seriously, all I want is a guy to take me out and make me laugh for a good hour and take my ass back home,” she said.

“He doesn’t even have to come up. All I want is a conversation for an hour.”

Rihanna doesn’t mind waiting for her dream man to come along and says she won’t settle for second best.

Rihanna explained: “I’m going to wait, though. You always find the wrong s**t when you go looking.”

Karrueche Tran, Chris Brown’s former lover, is said to be livid about his recent video in which he claims he loves “two women at the same time”.

A source close to Karrueche Tran has told TMZ that she is “pissed” at Chris Brown for dumping her in such a public way.

Karrueche Tran, 23, is said to be disappointed in Chris Brown’s decision to broadcast his feelings on the internet and feels he should have kept things private.

Meanwhile, sources close to Chris Brown say he made the video in an attempt to soften the blow for ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran.

In the video, Chris Brown says: “I’m stressed out… when you share history with somebody, then you tend to fall in love with somebody else, it’s kinda difficult.

“Is there such thing as loving two people? I don’t know if that’s possible, but for me, I feel like that.”

But after Chris Brown made his video public, Karreuche Tran was less than impressed with his admission.

She tweeted: “Wtf is going on? All I’m saying is.. You don’t mess with people’s genuine feelings. You just don’t! Life moves on.. So let’s all.”

Meanwhile Rihanna made a veiled reference to Chris Brown as she wrote on her Twitter: “Ain’t nobody bidness….. But mine and my baby!”

And friends of the pair are said to be concerned about their potential reconciliation.

A source told RadarOnline.com: “Chris and Rihanna just love the drama. They know their fans don’t support them getting back together, and that it’s a terrible PR move since Chris was convicted of beating Rihanna.

“However, this is what Chris and Rihanna thrive on. There are still major trust issues that Rihanna has with Chris, with good reason, he was hooking up with her while he was still dating Karrueche. Chris and Rihanna back together in any capacity is just a disaster in the making.”
