Rihanna: I'm Not Dating Chris Brown (But He's Dope!)

Rihanna has denied that she is dating Chris Brown again, though accepted that the R&B star is now back in her life. Brown is still on probation for his vicious 2009 assault of his then-girlfriend, though Rihanna has done little to hide the fact that she's ready to forgive and forget.

Back in October, the pair were caught getting close at the launch party for Brown's new website, at the Playhouse nightclub in Beverly Hills. Rhi-Rhi actually quoted the Bible in a series of tweets shortly afterwards, telling followers, "Forgiveness wins. For if you forgive people their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you." Just this week, Rihanna announced 'Nobodies Business' - a duet between herself and Brown that will feature on her forthcoming album Unapologetic. Though all the signs point towards a romantic reunion, Rihanna put to rest the rumors during a Facebook Live chat with host Andy Cohen on Thursday evening (November 8, 2012). Though denying that the pair are back together, the Barbadian singer did add, "He's pretty dope. He's kinda alright."

The chat kind of went flat after that bombshell, though Rihanna told fans she had a girl crush on Beyonce. There you have it.
