RihannaRihannaThere's been so much smoke surrounding Rihanna we can barely see the lass.

But with all this clouding our view there must certainly be a fire somewhere.

Cos as we all know there ain't no smoke without it.

But Ri has now come along and tipped a big ol' bucket of water over it.

Her rep has said that she's not coupled up with Josh Hartnett.

Despite the twosome being snapped looking ever so cosy in a New York nightclub.

Yet Ri's spokesman insists that these two are not a couple and friends are saying that they were just hanging out and added, for clarity: "They're not a couple".

Basically, her rep and mates are saying that it might have just been a one time hook-up between the wee scamps.

So it's looking to us like true love might be off the cards for this pairing - but it seems that they both had fun.
