Rihanna Posts New Picture Of Herself With Chris Brown
Rihanna and Chris Brown (Instagram)
Just when it seemed like Rihanna and Chris Brown were breaking up (again) thanks to remarks she made at a concert in Los Angeles, the Barbados-born singer posted a picture of herself and Brown on her Instagram feed.
The picture is of her sitting in the passenger seat of a car that Brown is driving — notably the same set-up for when he beat her in a car in 2009 — and she captioned the photo "This shit look like a toupee."
Brown is wearing a hat and Rihanna has long hair so It's not really clear exactly what looks like a toupee, but that's neither here nor there.
According to People, RiRi told fans at the Staples Center on Monday, "How many of you are in love? How many of you hate love? How many of you don't fucking understand it? I'm in that group."
Brown, meanwhile, has been in and out of trouble lately. A judge in Los Angeles accused him of not completing his community service hours, but then he worked on changing his image by painting a graffiti mural for a charity.
