A lot of people were shocked by Chris Brown’s claim that he lost his virginity at eight (yes, eight) and is a “beast” in bed because he started so young. Rihanna is not one of those people. The singer knows that all of Chris’ practice in the bedroom paid off, according to insiders, and physical intimacy was never an issue in their relationship. Fists to the face? A different story. “The fact that he had sex when he was young wasn’t new or a secret to her,” the source says. “She and him had what they had and he was a beast in bed.” “She loved his sex,” another source close to to the star confirmed, but added, “Too bad he wasn’t a beast when it came to being emotionally secure.” Whether a source actually said that or not, it might as well be true, given the issues that plagued the duo back in the day and earlier this year. Jealousy? Insecurity? Tempers flaring? You name it. Chris Brown Lost Virginity at Age 8 Brown being a sex god was never in dispute, fortunately, so they can see eye to eye on something. His skills all date back to the mid-to-late ’90s. Chris told The Guardian that he lost his V-card at eight years old to a girl who was 14 or 15, having grown up watching porn with his older cousins. “We were already kind of like hot to trot, you know what I’m saying? Like, girls, we weren’t afraid to talk to them; I wasn’t afraid,” Breezy recalls. “So, at eight, being able to do it, it kind of preps you for the long run,” he adds, noting that it paid off. “You can be a beast at it. You can be the best at it.” If this report is to be believed, Rihanna isn’t questioning his claims that girls who have been with him “can’t complain.” About his sexual prowess, anyway. All other complaints re: Brown? Probably still fair game. Eight-year-old Chris getting it in: true or false ? True. You can’t make that up, and given his upbringing … False. He’s full of it and no way that’s even possible! View Poll »

Halle Berry isn’t the only one having issues with the father of her child : Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi is headed for a nasty custody battle with the father of her 11-month-old daughter Krishna. Baby daddy Adam Dell filed a suit in Manhattan Supreme Court on Tuesday night in an effort to get more time with his child. A lawyer for Adam — the brother of billionaire Dell Inc. founder Michael Dell — says, “He wants to have an active and substantial role in the upbringing of his daughter… Unfortunately, Ms. Lakshmi has severely limited his time with their daughter and has refused to negotiate a reasonable co-parenting agreement. Mr. Dell has tried his best to avoid going to court, but Ms. Lakshmi has given him no other choice at this time.” Padma’s rep shot back: “It appears to us that Mr. Dell remains more interested in garnering media attention than working out details to see Krishna or in her welfare.” SMH at him doing it to “attention whore” vs. actually wanting to spend time with his child.
