Part 4: Breakups, Makeups, and Mitzvahs

  • August 2013: Chris and Rihanna part ways, this time for good. Shortly after the split, she and Drake are spotted partying together after the MTV VMAs.
  • September 2013: During an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Drake gets grilled about his famous girlfriends and admits to dating Rihanna as well as going on "one date" with Tyra Banks.
  • November 2013: Rihanna and Drake hit up a Houston strip club together. They reportedly arrive separately but requested that their tables be side by side. Between the two of them, they spend $17,000 on lap dances — the couple that makes it rain together, stays together.
  • January 2014: Drake once again reminds us that he and Rihanna had a thing going in a Bar Mitzvah-inspired sketch during his SNL hosting gig. It's like, "OMG, we get it!" you know? He also blows off the Grammys to party with Rihanna in Hollywood.
