Rihanna is ringing in the New Year with a new man.
The “Rated R” songstress was photographed cuddling up with Los Angeles Dodgers star Matt Kemp at a resort in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico on January 4.
Rihanna, 21, and Matt, 25, were reportedly introduced to each other through mutual friends in November.
An eyewitness at the resort in Mexico where the two were staying told People their affection for each other was quite obvious.
“[They] couldn’t keep their hands off each other,” the eyewitness told the mag. “[They] kept kissing while gazing out over the ocean.”
And while their trip to Mexico isn’t the first time the new couple has been spotted together – they were also reportedly seen shopping together at LA’s trendy outdoor mall The Grove on December 22 – an agent for the baseball star said they are making the most of their time together.
Matt also reportedly accompanied Rihanna to Dubai, where she performed on New Year’s Eve.
“They’ve only had a few opportunities to be together, but those times have been fun,” Matt’s agent, Dave Stewart, told People.
After being drafted in 2003 and spending several years in the minor leagues, Matt – whose on-field nickname is “The Bison” — has played with the Dodgers since 2007.
