Rihanna and Katy Perry have been one of the music industry’s most beloved best buds for years now. They’ve partied together, reigned together at awards shows as the cliquey popular girls and even helped each other out during their infamous breakups with their famous exes, Chris Brown and Russell Brand. But, rumor has it that the fact that Rihanna’s ex is now back in the picture is driving a wedge between her and Perry.
According to the New York Daily News, a source in Perry’s camp says that she and Rihanna are “barely talking” and that “there has been tension between them” ever since Rihanna and Brown publicly reconciled.
The site claims that Perry has now been spending more time with Hollywood’s other controversial couple, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, and that Perry thinks “Rihanna is making a huge mistake and doesn’t want to be part of it.”
The report comes as quite the surprise, as Rihanna and Perry were last spotted together, sitting side by side, at this year’s MTV VMAs, where Rihanna famously planted a friendly kiss on Brown.
