A brief history of Drake’s huge and very public love for Rihanna

Beyonce has blitzed the MTV Video Music Awards, leaving a stream of Aussie stars in her wake. His eyes were never off her. “But he felt that for Ri”, a source tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY after he gushed about his feelings for her onstage at the August 28 VMAs. “I knew it!” The stream of questions was interspersed with a lot of screaming and giggling as they bonded over their mutual love for makeup artist Pat McGrath and her latest lip kit. With that he presented her with the Moon Man but Rihanna gave him a passing kiss and embrace before taking on the mike.

The 28-year-old singer and 29-year-old rapper were spotted hopping into the back of the same auto after an intimate dinner date at Nobu in NYC on Monday night. Well, at least for us and for Drake; Rihanna will most likely just drift off into the Barbadian sunset on a swan float with a glass of chardonnay in her hand.

“When I think about the Video Vanguard Award and receiving this tonight, all I can think of is my country”, the 29-year-old singer-turned-actress and entrepreneur said.

“Clearly Rihanna and I don’t have much in common: “I can’t imagine that @badgalriri clutches her iPhone anxiously awaiting a notification alerting her that “@champagnepapi liked your photo” or that she even cares if he did. She’s one of his best friends in the world.

Inseparable: ‘They walked in together and never left each other’s side all night. “She’s a living, breathing legend in our industry, ladies and gentleman, the recipient of the Michael Jackson Vanguard Award for 2016, Rihanna”. She later signed a recording contract with Def Jam Recordings after auditioning for its then-president, hip hop producer and rapper Jay Z. Rihanna’s first two studio albums, “Music of the Sun” (2005) and “A Girl Like Me” (2006) charted on the top 10 of the U.S. Billboard 200 and respectively produced the singles “Pon de Replay” and “SOS”.
