Leonardo DiCaprio and Rihanna dating

Are Leonardo DiCaprio and Rihanna in fact Hollywood’s hottest new couple?

Rumours are abounding that Wolf of Wall Street star Leo, 40 and Barbadian beauty Rihanna, 26 got “hot and heavy” at the Playboy mansion (where else).

Two different sources reportedly confirmed to TMZ that the pair were spotted hooking up, while a friend of Leo’s denied it.

Nonetheless they were definitely both at the same party at the mansion, for designer Nikki Erwin who was celebrating her 30th birthday – Leo was even photographed next to the cake.

Other celebrity guests at the event included Hilary Duff, Tom Hardy, and Paris Hilton.

It’s rumoured the pair then attended the same after party together where  notorious party animal Leo was surreptitiously snapped by rapper 50 Cent in the background of a selfie he was taking with supermodel Naomi Campbell.

Social media snaps place Leo at the same party at the Playboy mansion. 

The rumours come after the pair both celebrated New Year’s Eve, on the Caribbean island of St Barth’s, where they reportedly both partied the night away at the same club – La Plage.

Another “insider’ told gossip site Dish Nation that: “Leonardo and Rihanna are getting very close, and she just adores him.”

The source continued: “So much so that word among her friends is that she has her sights set on him becoming her boyfriend.”

With their infamous partying ways, it seems the pair make the perfect match for one another.

“Rihanna is no shrinking violet and unlike many of Leo’s model girlfriends she’s got ‘a lot of game’ to keep him on his toes. They have been together at parties and even spent time alone at friends’ holiday apartments in St. Barths.”

In an interview with the US Elle magazine back in August last year, Rihanna even mentioned the actor as a source of inspiration.

Asked if she had any words to live by, the singer replied: “Avoid obviousness. That is a quote by Leonardo DiCaprio.”

“that’s what makes you create something, that’s the excitement, that’s the thrill,’

Does this mean “Leanna” could be the next big thing? We’ll have to wait and see!
