Rihannas man goes past 1st base

So I hear Rihanna may finally have a new man.  Too bad…I was just starting to like the idea of her being lesbian.

R&B beauty RIHANNA has sparked rumors she’s dating baseball star MATT KEMP after the pair was snapped arriving back in Los Angeles together following her New Year’s Eve (31Dec09) concert in the United Arab Emirates.

The Umbrella singer rang in the New Year (10) with a show at the Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi last week – and she was accompanied across the world by her new beau, Los Angeles Dodgers player Kemp.

Rihanna has been romantically linked to a string of eligible men, including Justin Timberlake, rapper Drake and 90210 actor Tristan Wilds, in recent months but she previously denied she was even dating, insisting it was "too much" following her split from Chris Brown.
