Report: Rihanna and Ryan Phillippe Have been Hooking Up for Months

It seemed that the Ryan Phillippe-Amanda Seyfried romance fizzled out quickly, but the fire couldn't have been that hot...if rumors are true that the actor has been courting Rihanna for months!

"They initially hooked up when things were strained with [Rihanna's ex] Matt Kemp back in early December," a Rihanna source told Us. "She thinks he's hot."

Most recently, we heard that Rihanna totally blew off the actor, but their interaction after a recent LA luncheon begs the opposite: "They totally had sex. And it wasn't even the first time!" the source says.

The two reconnected at a charity event last week and then her recent birthday bash, but they are keeping things incognito...for now.

An attendee at the birthday party said: "They hung out a bit, but were discreet. It is still very casual." Another source added: "Clearly they're keeping it on the downlow!"
