NEW COUPLE RUMORS: COMMON & KERRY WASHINGTON? / RIHANNA & JOSH HARTNETT?
Friday, October 12, 2007

Check out the new couple rumors running around the web. First off we have Common & Kerry Washington.
According to SOHH, Kerry Washington is the director for Com’s new video “”I Want You.” The two must have gotten close on set because she has been popping up at all his concerts and they were supposedly spotted kissing in a VA mall earlier this week. We’ll keep you posted.
RIHANNA & JOSH HARTNETT

We all know Rihanna loves her some white dudes and it looks like Josh Hartnett is her new man. Us Weekly has the scoop for you.
After romancing Scarlett Johansson and Helena Christensen, Hartnett, 29, was spotted kissing and cuddling with the “Umbrella” singer, 19, last night at NYC club Pink Elephant, a witness tells Usmagazine.com.
A source says the couple — who lunched about three weeks ago in L.A. — met up after her Thursday night concert at the Nokia Theatre in Times Square.
The duo, sitting at a table of Dom Perignon and Pink Elephant Vodka throughout the night, “didn’t come together, but left together,” the witness adds.
When reached by Us, a rep for Hartnett had no comment. [SOURCE]
The two of them must have swapped numbers when both of them appeared on TRL earlier this week.

I gues good for rihanna…I hear a lot of people saying that its good for rihanna to date white guys because brothers have been doing it for years and as a female I disagree..
we need to be clear what kind of brothers date white girls…weak ones
as for me i’m sticking to my black men because black is where its at and we all know its the best so stop fronting
Kerry realized it!

Damn I dint know that they allowed 19yo’s in clubs to drink Dom and Vodka. I should have migrated to NY to get my underage drink on years ago!

Josh and Common are both sexy as hell, but if I had a choice I’d take common - Josh is not aging well. BTW. whatever Rihanna’s wearing at the bottom makes her look grandmaish in the hips - not a good look.

Rihanna gets around a bit too much for only being 19. She needs to check herself before she gets a reputation as a ho.

FYI- Kerry did not get married to that white guy. That relationship ended some time ago. As far as Rhianna, I’m sure this is just a rumor. Anyway, if she is dating Josh then good for her. It ain’t nothing wrong with dating out of your race. Black men do it all the time. Why can’t we? The only problem with Josh may be that he’s a little old for her.

Ya’ll prudes need to relax……..nobody said she had sex with any of these men. She is19 and having fun, she cant be tied down to one dude b/c of her schedule. I wish I was in RiRi’s shoes……….I would carry the title of a HO proudly, next on my list would be Benico Del Toro & Marques Huston, I’ll go through them like water.

guys calm down!! we don’t even know if the rumor is true. ppl say a lot of things, some are true some false. honestly they do seem to always be tying her to every white guy she meets so idk. either way josh hartnett is gorgeous to me and he could do better, well actually he has done better but i think he likes “exotic” chicks (scarlett, penelope, and if true, now riri)

well leave it up to sandra rose and she’ll tell you ri ri is gay LOL! but yeah i heard that rihanna liked white guys so i wouldn’t be surprised….but common and kerry noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo……..i wanted common lol,but they would make a cute couple and i would get over it eventually.
now if riri is gonna date a white guy can he at least have some flava cuz i don’t care for this dude too much,although it is her choice at the end of the day.

I’m not mad at either potential couples. They all look cutesy together. Kerry and Common should be especially interesting cuz they both hold it down *loves me some Common*… And I see everyone wanna link Rih-Rih to white boys *get over yourselves*— just like they automatically link Kim K. to black dudes.
They all get the stamp of approval if it’s true…

Why is Rih-Rih all of a sudden a “ho” to u ppl. So what if she decides 2 go out and socialize and have fun? Who’s to say that any of this info is really true and not completely exaggerated? I guarantee the majority of y’all talkin’ ish on here at her age wasn’t all that peachy keen so don’t be so quick to pass judgement…

@ #5 - HOW IS RIHANNA LOOKING LIKE A WHORE? GETTING GREETED BY A MAN ON TRL? SHUT UP! YOU SOUND LIKE A 2 YEAR OLD!

When I see RiRi actually kissing Josh Hartnet or even Shia LeBoeuf, than I would believe this bunch of crap!

As for Josh, I hope he enjoys every minute spent with Riri, next month someone else could have next. WTF?

What friggin genetic make up are you talking about? We are black people, take your complex shit elsewhere! Rihanna doesn’t deal with that shit!
When white people call you N*gg*r, you think they are talking about 3/4th, 1/5th or a friggin whole? You sound just dumb!

I am from the Caribbean.
There was slave trade there too. What master would do is separate the slaves.
A family of 12 (mother, father, children, uncles, aunts, cousins) would be divided up. One would be shipped to Puerto Rico, one in Columbia, one to NC, one to Belize, One to Trinidad, one to Cuba.. You get the point.
The idea was to break the bond. Why, because they could gang up and of course keep the language.. It is in the history books, check with the British archives.
We are related and may not know it.
Anyway, RIHANNA’S dad is a black man. You remember when Master used to visit our fore-mothers at night, well his great something passed the gene on.. He is light skin. Since when is light skin some big race phenomenon?
And why is Rihanna a whore for being on TRL and talking or possibly having a drink with Josh H.?
Jesus Christmas already!

LOL………..hung like Tommy Lee, Shoot i ain”t mad at that!
I think Common is soooooooooo sexy, SMART+TALENTED=SEXXY!! one of the best lyricists in hip hop. Lord knows there are like no fine looking rappers (except for my boy T.I.). Personally I would much rather see Common with Sanaa Lathan or Gabby Union.
Rihanna is Gorgeous and IF i was a man i would hit that in a heartbeat, (I’m NOT a lesbian, I love ___ too much, but yeah I don’t blame Josh Hartnett, he’s not that cute too me though, I think Jake G and Paul Walker are the two finest white boys in Hollywood. Who cares if she likes white dudes? black dudes have been dating everything under the sun since the beginning of time, so she can do whatever floats her boat, she is 19 and fly.

Hey #106
That’s exactly what i read about her dad but everybody else saying naw…
Hell i even checked out his picture and changed my mind with them cause like I said he favors my Grandad. I’m from guyana by the way and we come in all shades, just like everybody else so, who really knows. It doesn’t matter though Love ain’t got no color.

i think it’s the other way around–WHITE DUDES are CRAZY about Rihanna. When I worked for a tv station–run by Jewish white men–they all would go on-and-on-and-on-and-on-and-On about how HOT they thought Rihanna was,. I never hear black dudes talk about Ri-Ri in the same way..most of my black male friends put her forehead on blast. I find that my white male coworkers appreciate her beauty more than the black men.
I hope i didn’t go entirely off-topic, but i think the notion is interesting.

Oh No Baby Jesus, can Rihanna find her a cute man?? Probably not, or else she would have someone cute by now. That’s sad because she’s actually kind of pretty. I hate irony.
On the other hand, Kerry and Common aren’t bad together, at all. Good for them

Thats a serious age gap for Rihanna and Josh, but oh well. If they make each other happy, then good for them. Rihanna does love her some white dudes though, lol. I bet she’s gonna deny this rumor though.
Kerry & Common could make a cute couple…I dunno. (Random thought: I just figured out that Kerry reminds me of Toni Braxton, lol)

Okay so ya’ll are saying Rihanna is “all about the white men” but I can only name two that she was linked with ….Josh Hartnett and Shia LaBeouf, who else?
Same goes for Kerry Washington. I can only name the one guy - David Moscow. Someone said she has been ‘ruined by ALL those white guys’.
Who apart from the one? Are ya’ll just being haters? Because most of us have dating outside our race at one time or another, does it really matter? You cant help who you fall for. Good looks are good looks.

Hmm, Rihanna and Josh Hartnett?? Damn!! Who’s next? Sounds like she might be making her some “extra cash” on the side, lol. You know that is very common in Hollywood. Something doesn’t seem quite “kosher” with homegirl. I wish her all the luck in whatever her game plan is.

Wow! Let’s look at the facts here. She is banging mad Hollywood actors back to back. So what does that mean?? How much do you wanna bet she will move towards movies now?!! She is just doing a lil brown nosing on her back. I will have to give her the props that she deserves, lol.

I’ve never heard anything different so all that her dad is black or lightskinned black is some new BS lol. She’s mixed folks……..I know we (blacks) like to flat out claim everybody but uh yeah she’s mixed.
To whomever said Paul Walker is fine…..HELL YES. lol
