The two musicians have had a long-running feud over Rihanna – and recently clashed in a New York nightclub, leaving Chris with a gashed chin.
Rihanna recently admitted to Oprah Winfrey that she still loves ex Chris Brown, even though he brutally attacked her when they were dating in 2009.
She told the chat show host: “I think he was the love of my life.”
