Rihanna Admits to Dating Matt Kemp

After months of playing coy about her relationship with Los Angeles Dodgers' Matt Kemp, Rihanna is finally ready to open up.

"He's my boyfriend," she giggled to Ryan Seacrest on his morning radio show Thursday. "It's new and it's fun. It's nothing too serious. I don't want anything that's going to take up so much of my energy and time right now in a bad way. I just want to have fun, and that's what it's about."

The couple was first spotted together when they jetted off to Mexico over the holidays, but when they were snapped in a sexy PDA, they quickly tried to squash rumors of a relationship. Kemp even went as far as to call the singer a distraction, saying "[Rihanna] is just a friend, a good friend of mine."

“I can’t get distracted by that," he wrote on his team's website in February. When it’s time to play baseball, that’s my job. No distractions. I’m not used to that much attention to my personal life,” he confessed. “It’s really not that big a deal. But in LA, doing things here, you’re under a microscope.”
