Rihanna Has Been Sending Robert Pattinson “Sexy” Texts

Rihanna has been trying to cheer Robert Pattinson up with “sexy, funny texts.” According to a new report from Ok Magazine and The Hollywood Life, one of Rihanna’s friends says that she and Rob have “met several times at award bashes over the years. RiRi thinks he’s very cute, but nothing ever came of it because he was attached to Kristen — and it’s not her style to steal someone else’s man.”

“She got Rob’s phone number from a mutual friend and has been sending him sexy, funny texts to cheer him up,” the insider continued. “At first, Rob thought someone Punk’d him. Eventually Rihanna convinced him she was for real, but Rob has been resisting her.”

Could it be? Do you think the news is true? If so, the Twi-hards can stop hating Kristen Stewart and start directing their geek-rage at Rihanna. Apparently, Rob’s friends have told him to “start enjoying life again” – so perhaps that will mean hooking up with a hot 24 year-old pop star?

Rob has been on the publicity trail promoting his new movie Cosmopolis, but he’s refused to talk about Kristen, despite a Ben & Jerry’s-fueled effort from Jon Stewart. When Rob told Jon, “I’m cheap and I didn’t hire a publicist” (to tell talk show hosts that the breakup was off-limits for conversation), a number of PR Firms have come calling, with discounted rates.

We bet that R-Patz is more likely to hook up with Rihanna than get a publicist. What do you think?
