Rihanna , who appears minus a blouse or bra in behind-the-scenes photos for UK Esquire, is now being linked to bad boy baller J.R. Smith . Rihanna is dating New York Knicks star J.R. Smith. The ‘We Found Love’ hitmaker was spotting canoodling with the basketball star at Veranda nightclub in New York earlier this month and eyewitnesses say Rihanna appeared ”really into him”. A source told In Touch Weekly magazine: ”They were very flirty in the club all night and holding hands.
