Usher Admits He Hooked Up with Rihanna

December 29th, 2011 - By Brande Victorian

So apparently Usher has a “hit list” of women he’d like to snuggle up to this winter and Rihanna’s not on it, but she used to be. Now magazine recently asked the singer about rumors that the two were getting close over the summer and here’s what he said:

“She’s beautiful, but she’s not necessarily on my hit list — she’s like my sister right now.

“Or cousin — we have kissed.”

Uh which is it? “not necessarily” and “right now” sound like Usher is still trying to find love or at least a little somethin’ somethin’ in a hopeless place. I don’t know why people like to throw out phrases like “she’s like a sister/brother” knowing their intentions are hardly sibling-like. But since Usher does have a list of ladies he’d like to get back to maybe Ri Ri is at the bottom.

He also told the mag, “I’m dating at the moment – not anyone in particular, but I have a few people I’m interested in.”

What do you think about Usher’s comment on his relationship with Rihanna? Could you see these two together?

    Rhianna is a super industry hoe. Who can’t sell cds or concert tickets. Usher would be a boost to her pathetic career.

    the relationship rihanna did not work out with chris brown he is a black american,why you think he will work with usher,usher is mature enough to know what he really want ,why rihanna used the media tabloid to mess with usher,and concern about tameka, even she not with usher no more i beg  you she want the best for usher and their kids to raise and for now rihanna far from a good model because she addicted on drugs.she must need to stay way  from usher.

      Please learn to speaka da language.

    He never said they hooked up. Hooking up implies sex. I hope they both sue.

    • Garsh

      The meaning of “hooking up” is subjective. STFU

    Im jealous of Rhi-Rhi chop down list. GRRRRRRRRRRRR 

  • Glamstar09

    The only anomaly in the pairing of this pairing is Rihanna is not mature enough, age-wise, for Usher. He has an established track record of being enamored with older women. I think they’re both still working issues with their past relationships and won’t find true love until they’ve worked those issues out. Sometimes you just need to be still to find peace.

    I’ve never thought of them as an item, but I think they could have made it work. Usher is the only single black artist enjoying a mainstream success like Rihanna.
    They should give it a try even though Tameka is going to lose her damn mind…

    I hate to say this but Rihanna is so out of his league.

      Really? They both seem like trash.

      • Prissy7950

        Calling someone trash is petty and it shows how little one sees themselves in the big picture,as my mother used to say, It ,”Takes One To  Know One”!
        Enough said.

      Rihanna is out of his league? Who R U??! If They Have Something N Common And Develop A Relationship Great. Its Not Like Rihanna would have to “Upgrade” Him or be his sugar mama. —

      I dont see Rihanna as his type.  In my opinion she lacks maturity and self esteem.  He appears to like them a little more mature (age-wise at least).  I also dont see Usher as her type.  She appears to like them rough around the edges. But career wise, it wouldve been good PR.
