In the video, Barnes said they were "just past the crush stage,” but unfortunately Rihanna is not on the same page.

When asked if there’s a future with the “Bitch Better Have My Money” singer, Barnes answered, “Possibly.” He also said they're "friends right now" but "we'll see where it goes."

She posted a screenshot of the interview on Instagram and told her fans that not only are they not dating, she’s never even met him.

Rihanna denied the relationship with a series of hashtags, including, “#bishwhere #thedevilisaliar#shesnotthatintoyou#shesnotintoyouatall#shesneverevenmetyou#thisactuallyhurtmyfeelings#defamationofcharacter.”

Barnes replied, "Hahaaa wow."

Rihanna has recently been linked to Leonardo DiCaprio, and most recently soccer star Karim Benzema and Lewis Hamilton.
