FRANKIE DELGADO

Internet gossip suggested Delgado and Rihanna have become inseparable ever since the Umbrella singer split from on/off boyfriend Chris Brown earlier this month (Mar09).

But The Hills star insists he and Rihanna are "just friends".

He says, "It's Hollywood, people talk a lot."

Delgado has also laughed off reports Rihanna treated him to a sexy lap dance at Hollywood hotspot Delux on Thursday night (26Mar09).

He insists the moment is made up, but tells Eonline.com, "God bless any guy who does get to dance with her."

Rihanna split from Brown after briefly reconciling with the Kiss Kiss hitmaker following his alleged attack on her in February (09). Brown has been charged with two felonies following the incident, during which he reportedly beat, attempted to choke and threatened his girlfriend's life while driving through Los Angeles.

His arraignment hearing has been delayed until next month (Apr09).
