Rihanna was clearly unhappy with the statement made by NBA Player Matt Barnes when he was asked if they might date in the near future. The "B***h Better Have My Money" singer took to Instagram to slam the basketball athlete on Sunday, August 16.
Rihanna posted a screengrab of Matt from an interview video with TMZ where he said they "past the crush stage." The Barbadian beauty seemed to disagree with him as the picture came along with some bitter hashtags saying that the athlete was lying about their dating rumors. The hashtags included "bish where," "the devil is a liar," "she's not that into you," "she's never even met you," "this actually hurt my feelings" and "defamation of character." Matt allegedly commented on the said picture, "Hahaaa wow."
During the interview, Matt was asked if he was dating the "Diamonds" singer. "Rihanna is my friend right now. So let's see where it goes," he said. When asked if there was any possibility of them dating in the future, he said, "Yeah, possibly. I think we just past the crush stage a little bit - just a little bit." However, when he was asked where their first dating venue was, he said, "All that is rumors, just speculations. We're friends."
Dating rumors between Rihanna and Matt came a while ago. Matt flirted with her on Twitter over a year ago after the singer sat courtside at his Lakers game. At that time, the basketball player tweeted, "@Rihanna thx for coming to the game 2nite, u MIGHT be good luck!!! Hahaa."
