Despite reports over the weekend that Rihanna and Chris Brown secretly met up at a Manhattan hotel for a bit of light sparring between the sheets, Rihanna's spokesperson has denied that they are back together. Well he would, wouldn't he...

He's hardly going to admit that they are when they're legally not allowed to be.

The pair were both seen separately at the Trump International Hotel and Tower) on Friday sparking speculation.

But Rihanna's has told Access Hollywood the two did not see each other.

"This was a coincidence," they said.

"She's stayed there before as have thousands of people."

Just a coincidence - like when Rihanna happened to emerge from a car covered in bruises while Brown's fists had been performing a little dance in front of her face.

Rihanna is photographed here shopping at Bloomingdales yesterday and you can see the disgust on her face at yet another bastard tries to grab the brolly off her singing: "You can stand under my umber-ella-ella-ella!!!"

This guy's going to be dining off this pic for many years to come.
