Rihanna and Jennifer Lopez fighting over drake?

Of course, new couple announcements often result in significant hurt from envious exes, and despite their megastar status, Drake and RiRi are not above this phenomenon.

You might think that the ill will would come from Jen’s most recent ex, Casper Smart, who basically made a career out of being Mr J-Lo. But thus far, Smart has remained silent on the issue, (possibly because he’s still enjoying life on Jen’s pay roll).

You may have forgotten that Drake and Rihanna dated on two separate occasions, because both times, the relationship didn’t last very long. But it seems that the relationship left enough of an impression on RiRi that she’s at least mildly pissed about her ex moving on in such public fashion. Rihanna has unfollowed Lopez on Instagram, which is surprising, considering both women have spoken highly of one another in the recent past. “I’m a huge Rihanna fan,” Lopez said during a red carpet interview earlier this year. In response, Rihanna gifted Lopez a pair of $4,000 boots from her own Manolo Blahnik line. She included a hand-written note, reading: “To the baddest. Because I know you’re gonna wear them better than me.” This might be the clearest indication yet that Drake and Jen are getting serious, as clearly something big transpired if Rihanna went from sending wildly expensive gifts to issuing passive-aggressive social media middle fingers in just a few short months.

It’s an unexpected move on Rihanna’s part, as a running joke throughout both of her relationships with Drake was that she just didn’t seem that into the guy. Perhaps RiRi is the type who doesn’t know what she’s got til it’s gone ... or maybe she’s just really enjoyed stringing poor Drizzy along.
